Chapter 601 When Witty-Whitey heard Jake mention the past, its hatred for Jake immediately rose again. Witty-Whitey opened its mouth and bit at Jake's chest.
In the end, Witty-Whitey only managed to bite onto Jake's clothes.
Jake sneered and warned, Behave yourself. You're no match for me!" Jake seemed to be very proud of himself.
Looking at Jake who was arguing with a puppy with a serious look on his face, Olivia found it amusing as she watched Jake with interest.
Meanwhile, Claire who stood at the side was quite shocked to see the leader of Mercenari Uno bullying a cute puppy! "Doesn't Jake feel ashamed?" Claire thought inwardly.
Soon, they saw a row of courtyards.
Lotus Village was not big. In the village, there would be small clusters that were made up of three to five households that were staying close to each other. Although the households were not arranged neatly, the clusters formed a certain orderly pattern. There were about a hundred households in total.
However, only the row of courtyards that they were seeing now was separated from the other residents.
There were sdilapidated old houses that the villagers had used to live in. As they were too close to the forest, wild beasts would often be spotted. Hence, the villagers moved to the front of the village which was near the road.
Among the dilapidated old houses, the row of courtyards that they saw was constructed to be very sturdy and tall. x] The courtyard was also neatly and beautifully renovated. Flowers were growing on the fence walls, and the yard was lush with greenery. In one of the yards, there was a thicket of grapevines which was near the fence walls.
Under the trellis, a black panther rested lazily on its paws.
Its eyes were closed, but its tail wagged from tto time. The black panther exuded an aura of laziness and comfort.
Upon hearing the commotion, one of the black panther's eyes opened slightly. When it saw Jake, the black panther looked away indifferently. Then, its gaze swept across Olivia. After confirming that there was no real threat, it closed its eyes indifferently.
The black panther continued to nap.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia did not dare to rest her gaze on the black panther as she was afraid that her heated gaze would anger it.
However, Olivia's eyes were filled with amazement and she whispered, Jake, is this Blacky? The black panther which Isabella had brought home?" Jake couldn't help but smile after hearing Olivia's question. "Yes, this is Blacky." Jake nodded as his lips curled upwards into a wide smile.
When Blacky heard them mention its name, it couldn't help but huff loudly as it forced air out of its nose. There was an air of casual arrogance that surrounded it.
Olivia and Jake looked around. Behind the red-colored walls and green-tiled houses were carefully tended medicinal fields that were neatly arranged. At a glance, it was a rather spectacular sight.
When the gentle breeze blew in their direction, they could smell traces of the medicinal herbs. Surprisingly, it smelled pretty good.
Olivia couldn't seem to look away from the breathtaking scenery as she muttered, "It's so beautiful here! What a waste for Isabella to leave Lotus Village!" Jake was amused. Putting Witty-Whitey down and heartlessly ignoring its weak sound of protest, Jake turned around to wrap his hand around Olivia's waist. "If you like this place, we can stay here for a long time," Jake said.
Witty-Whitey raised its head and looked at Jake's arm that was wrapped around Olivia's waist. Its round black eyes were filled with disdain.
"Jake is really detestable! Jake does not let Olivia carry me, but he's taking advantage of Olivia now! "Why doesn't Jake go and get himself sterilized instead?" Witty-Whitey thought to itself.
"Really?' Olivia's eyes immediately lit up as she looked at Jake with joy and anticipation.
Olivia loved the place very much and felt that it would be best if she could live here for a long time.
One would not feel the noise from a busy life if one were to stay in Lotus Village. The scenery was beautiful and the place was quiet and serene. It would be a blessing if one was able to live in Lotus Village.
"Of course it's true.” Jake stroked Olivia's hair gently with his eyes filled with tenderness. "Actually, | like it here too," Jake said.
"That's great, Jake. We have a deal. We'll settle down and stay here in the future." Olivia was so happy that her face was flushed red.
Jake looked at Olivia with happiness in his eyes. The atmosphere between the two of them was filled with love and blessings.
"Hey, hey, hey. Who is this woman, and which family is she from? Did she just say that she wants to settle down in our village? Is she going to be neighbors with us, the elderly?" An old man walked over with a bunch of unknown medicinal herbs in his hand. In addition, he carried a basket on his back, which was also filled with various medicinal herbs.
It was obvious that the old man had just returned from the medicinal fields.
"Master Falkona." Jake called out a greeting. Greg glanced at Jake with a smile, before turning to look at Olivia. "You're the one who had just said that you want to be our neighbor?" Olivia paused as she was slightly taken aback. Then, Olivia smiled and replied politely, "That's right. | was just wondering if you would mind if | becyour neighbor?" "I don't mind. | don't mind at all. With such a pretty woman becoming our neighbor, it will surely bring more life and laughter to this village." As Greg spoke, he looked at Olivia's abdomen and smiled. It'll be even better if there's a baby!" Greg commented.
Olivia could not help but laugh heartily. Olivia had a good first impression of this old man. With a smile, Olivia said, "Hello Master Falkona. My nis Olivia Lockwood." "Alright, alright. You must be tired from the journey. Con in." Greg invited them into the house.
The interior of the house was laconic but filled with all the necessities that one needs for daily life.
For example, there was a sofa in the house.
They sat down on the sofa. Jake looked at Greg and asked, "Master Falkona, where's my father?" Jake was asking about the whereabouts of Jackson.
Seeing the worry in Jake's eyes, Greg quickly waved his hand and said, "Calm down. Don’t worry, Jackson's fine.
It's just that it's not convenient for him to move around.* "I thought there's a wheelchair? Could it be that Father's leg injury had worsened again?" Jake asked worriedly.
Jake could not sit still anymore after hearing what Greg had said. Rising from the sofa, Jake was about to leave the house in search of his father.
Greg rolled his eyes and said, "Didn't | just say that Jackson is fine? Jake, why are you so anxious?" Jake stopped in his tracks and asked, "Master Falkona, why didn't | see father around?" Greg's eyes narrowed as he smiled and said, "Jackson had finally allowedto treat his leg. For this period of time, I've instructed him to recuperate in bed. After a period of time, | think he might be able to walk again." Jake was stunned.
Then, Jake's eyes reddened. But, Jake's expression was one of indescribable excitement.
"Jackson's in the other house. The two of you can go over and visit him. If Jackson were to see such a beautiful lady becyour wife, won't he go crazy with joy?’ Greg teased.
Olivia was overjoyed by the praise, and her face lit up with enthusiasm. One could tell that Olivia was in high spirits.
Jake immediately brought Olivia to the other house.
In Dawton City.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith the imminent wedding, the Lockwood family was busy with all the wedding preparations. On the other hand, Isabella was staying at hand playing with her children all day long.
On this day, the President and Mr. Lyons cto visit.
Sir Graham Lockwood personally opened the door to welcthe esteemed guests.
Philip and Draxton were also present.
"Mr. President, it's an honor to have you visit us. Please have a seat," Mr. Graham said politely with a smile.
Sir Graham Lockwood's guests held a very high position in the country. Although Sir Graham Lockwood's order of seniority was higher in terms of age, he was very polite towards the President and did not throw his weight around.
The President smiled bitterly and did not sit down. Instead, the President bowed respectfully and said, "Old Mr.
Lockwood, | cto visit today to thank you and also to apologize.
"When my father and mother were in trouble, it was the Lockwood family who had rendered their support and helped us out. In my heart, I've always remembered what you have done for us. Till today, I've never forgotten your kindness.
"Thank you for all the help that you've rendered to the Lyons family.
"All these years, I've done many unjust things to the Lockwood family. Although it wasn't my intention, | can't say that I'm completely innocent. I'm feeling very ashamed of my actions. | hope that Old Mr. Lockwood can be magnanimous and forgive all that | have done, as someone from a younger generation." Eason addressed himself as someone from a younger generation as he wanted to forge a close relationship with Sir Graham Lockwood.
In the face of someone who was from a younger generation and was sincerely apologizing, there was no way that an elderly would blthem for a mistake that they had made.
Seeing that Eason was being very humble and sincere, Sir Graham Lockwood paused for a moment before replying, ‘Eason, it's all in the past.
Let's not talk about it. It hasn't been easy for you all these years.’ Instead of addressing Eason as Mr. President, Sir Graham Lockwood called him by his name.
The President was a little happy after hearing what Sir Graham Lockwood had said. Eason stood up straight and said, "Old Mr. Lockwood, I'm so happy that you are willing to forgive me." Mr. Lyons, who was already talking to Draxton, looked at Eason in disdain.
"Where's Bella?" Draxton said, "Bella is upstairs. She didn't know that you were coming. I'll head upstairs and inform her." Mr. Lyons nodded and said, "Go ahead. You can inform Bella that she will be leaving with us later." Draxton was taken aback.
A malicious smile slowly appeared on Mr. Lyons's cold and solemn face. "Aren't the two of you going to get married soon? | think it would be best if the two of you don't meet before the wedding." "What?" Draxton looked at Mr. Lyons in shock. Draxton could not help but raise his voice. "Mr. Lyons, what era is it now? I've never heard that a couple can't meet before the wedding. There's no such rule or custom!" Mr. Lyons's cold face was serious as he spoke, "Well, there's such a rule as long as I'm here!" Draxton was speechless.
Draxton had never thought that Mr. Lyons would do this to him! How could he not see Bella until the wedding? "Mr. Lyons, | suspect that you're deliberately making things difficult for me." Draxton's expression was a little rigid as he spoke.
A ghost of a smile flashed across Mr. Lyons face as he replied, ' You're right." Draxton was at a loss for words.
