My Dreamy Old Husband

Sophia and Linus simultaneously sucked in a breath of cold air.

Carmen, however, was still prancing around with glee. “Camel! Big camel! A big, big camel!”

It certainly was… a huge camel.

No wonder Michael’s glowering.

This time, no matter how they persuaded her, Carmen insisted on keeping the camel at home.

Michael was so worried that he was sure his hair was going to turn white.

Rearing a pig in Villa No. 1 was fine, but rearing a camel… That would be a pain in the *ss.

Raising a child was truly exhausting.

Thankfully, Linus had the idea of quietly donating the camel to the zoo. They could then tell Carmen that her grandpa had bought the zoo, so she could go there to visit the camels every day if she wanted to.

Michael really wanted to donate Sophia’s pair of alpacas as well, but the zoo seemed to be uninterested, and Sophia would certainly disagree, so he had no choice but to give up that notion.

Coincidentally, the giant pandas that Michael and Sophia adopted had been sent to Bayside City Zoo to be exhibited.

Michael had been one of the people in charge of making this happen. A year ago, he managed to establish a collaboration between Bayside City Zoo and Panda Foundation. Once the zoo was done with the renovations for the new panda pavilion, only then did Panda Foundation feel comfortable sending the two pandas to Bayside City to ‘work’.

Bayside City Zoo only had six pandas, so welcoming another two was not a big deal. Not to mention, Taylor—a man with extraordinary popularity—was one of the adopters of these two pandas, so it had caused quite a commotion throughout Bayside City. A grand opening ceremony was held, in which the president as well as Michael and Sophia, the two adopters, attended.

These two ‘working pandas’ were so popular that they nearly caught up to Michael’s popularity. On the first few days of their arrival, Bayside City’s panda pavilion was crowded daily. Everyone came to see the pandas, and the panda pavilion would receive tens of thousands of visitors in just half a day.

Upon the pandas’ arrival, Asco Pictures, a subsidiary of Asco International, announced that they would launch a series of film and television projects called ‘The Supreme Panda’, in which Michael’s two pandas would be used as prototypes for the production of an animated film that tells the story of a panda. They joined forces with Hollywood to create an international intellectual property that belonged to Cethos, so that it could be promoted to the world. Moreover, Taylor was responsible for the bilingual dubbing of the main characters in the movie.

Michael was kept busy as soon as he returned.
