Chapter 173

Lucy shared the strange behavior her owner had been exhibiting lately. Lucy lived in the same villa complex as the Li family, just a short distance from the Li Family Villa. Her owner was a doctor who had been coming home very late recently. Last night, she noticed something wrong: when her owner returned, she clearly heard two sets of footsteps, yet only she and her owner lived in the house—it was impossible for a second person to be there. Curious, she got up to take a look, only to see her owner return alone, looking exhausted. His back was more hunched than usual, and his complexion was poor. As she did every day, she trotted over to wag her tail at him, but her owner acted as if he didn't see her at all and simply walked slowly upstairs.
