"Young Master Dylan, Ms. Taylor is Young Mistress Kendall' best friend. Now that I've turned down Ms. Taylor, will she—"

"She won't blame you. We did give you guys the chance, but everything depends on your fate. To make sure you guys get married isn't the matchmaker's job, is it?"

Ronnie held his tongue as he thought, Phew. It's fine as long as the Young Mistress Kendall doesn't blame me.

Dylan had a soft spot for Kendall, hence the last thing his subordinates wanted was to infuriate her. Ticking Dylan off was fine, but angering her was a big deal.

The conversation stopped right there as Ronnie informed Dylan about it merely because of Kendall and Amelia's relationship.

Meow.

In a nearby bush sat a Ragdoll, which meowed once it noticed someone was coming. However, the innocuous meow surprised Ronnie.

He halted and marched toward the feline with the intention to drive it away because Dylan hated animals with fur.

Regardless of who its owner was, pets were off-limits in his vicinity. If he caught sight of it, those pets would have to face inevitable death.

Whose Ragdoll is this? Why didn't the owner keep an eye on it and let it come here?

"Ronnie, bring it to me," ordered Dylan.

Ronnie's eyes exuded sympathy as he thought of the fate awaiting the adorable cat. Even so, he could not disobey Dylan's orders.

The cat was obedient and friendly around strangers. When he approached it, it kept meowing instead of escaping. It even rubbed its head against his hand adorably as he reached out to the cat.

"Why did you run all the way here, little thing? I can't save you either."

Unless Kendall happened to be here, no one would be able to get it out of trouble. With the cat in his arms, he returned and stood before Dylan. However, Ronnie dared not stand near him or give him the cat due to the worry that he would strangle it to death.

Dylan stared at the furball in Ronnie's arms. "It somehow seems familiar to me."

Ronnie did not utter a word.

"Give a call to the Pet Palace. Ask them if Kendall's pet has escaped." Dylan guessed it was the very cat that he had gifted to Kendall.

He despised pets with fur and they were prohibited in his territories. Everyone who knew of that would make sure to keep an eye on the pets so that they would never cross paths with him.

Kendall wished to have a pet back then, and they fought because of it. In the end, when she was about to give up, he relented.

Kendall wished to have a pet back then, and they fought because of it. In the end, when she was about to give up, he relented.

He gifted her cats and dogs, which she left in Pet Palace where she could visit them whenever she was free. Thus, Dylan had a deep impression on these little furballs that had once 'ruined' their relationship.

No matter how long it had been since he last saw them, he could still recognize them.

Ronnie quickly made the call with the hope that the cat truly belonged to Kendall. Once someone from the Pet Palace picked up the call, he introduced himself, "I'm Ronnie."

Thud!

It was the sound of the phone falling onto the ground.

He kept quiet as he waited. Then, the person picked it up and asked gingerly, "Mr. Ronnie, why did you call?"

"Is Young Mistress Kendall's cat still there?"

Thud!

Again, it was the sound of the phone falling onto the ground.

Word failed him as he cottoned on the situation. The person was panicking because Kendall's cat had escaped, and he was completely flustered by Ronnie's call.

A couple of moments later, someone else answered the call. It seemed like the previous one was so shocked that he could not speak anymore.

"Mr. Ronnie, Young Mistress Kendall's cat… has escaped. We're searching for it right now, and we'll find it."

"The cat is here with me. Young Master Dylan saw it."

"What?!" The person shrieked. "How did it run so far away? Young Master Dylan saw it? I-Is it still alive? Young Mistress Kendall really, really, really likes them, though."

We're doomed. The cat is going to die because it barged into the wrong place due to our negligence! If Young Master Dylan kills the cat, Young Mistress Kendall will be sad and it'll surely affect their relationship. She is the person he loves the most. If they fight…

They would not be able to bear the repercussions.

Ronnie hung up the phone. Since it was confirmed that it belonged to Kendall, it would be fine.
