Mark was very nervous. “Hurry, let’s get in the car. I’m already ‘dead’, so I can’t be seen walking around out here.”
The group hurriedly got into the car and drove to Sophia’s home, The Imperial. Although Sophia and Michael had eaten dinner with Louis today, they didn’t eat much because they had already received a call saying that Cooper and Linus were coming over. Sophia hurried home and prepared for their visit; she needed to eat with them too.
When they got home, Michael had already prepared a glass case and put the harp in the living room as a decoration. Sophia could not play it, but such a rare item could not be hidden away. So, it was only right that he placed it in the living room as a decoration. There was also Louis’ autograph on it, which made the harp even more impressive than it already was.
The glass case that contained the harp was thick, dust-proof, moisture-proof, bullet-proof, and most importantly, anti-orange-cat. If the harp was left out in the open, it would be completely ruined by the orange cats at home within one day. Even if the orange cats didn’t ruin it, Richie Edwards would try its hardest to scratch it.
As Michael watched the harp being placed down in the living room, he glanced around and saw the big fat cats in the room had already begun to stare at it. Frowning, he asked Sophia, “Chica, why do I feel that there are more and more cats around?” He had neutered and given away most of them last year, keeping only those personally remembered, such as Chrysanthemum, Simba, Scorchy, Garfield, and that grassland cat Leapy. Sunset and its babies were also taken away by Stanley. All the rest were given away to adoptive families, so only seven or eight cats were left. But today, he could count at least thirty cats in the house!
There were orange cats, black cats, tabby cats, calico cats… He didn’t remember that there were so many cats in his house. Could it be that the neutering was not thorough enough? Or has Sophia started collecting cats behind my back again? Oh my God, we’re back to square one!
With some effort, Carmen picked up an overweight calico cat and said, “Daddy, this is Royal Sweetheart Aristocat!”
Sophia was pouring cat food into bowls, which instantly caused all the cats to charge toward her in a stampede. After feeding the cats, she stroked each of them and took their pictures. “These are the cats from our next-door neighbor. There are more than 300 cats there! It’s amazing! They are all Internet superstars, and they often come over to play.”
Michael was taken aback. Which ‘next-door neighbor’ of theirs had such a wealth of money? Three hundred cats! No matter how wealthy they were, they would become poor instantly. He glanced down at the cat’s collar and suddenly understood which neighbor it was—the ancient Imperial Palace next door.

knowledge was definitely better than ordinary archaeological experts. In any case, he knew at a glance which ones in Sophia’s family’s antique collection were authentic and which ones were fake, as well as their worth. He
