Chapter 1192

“Hi there, Snow, is it?”

Snow was still a young dog, with a soft coat that felt like a cloud under Millie’s fingers.

The little Samoyed seemed to enjoy her touch, locking eyes with her and nuzzling against her hand.

Picking up Snow, Millie ran her hand gently along his back.

Seeing the instant connection between her and the dog, Marcus had a sinking feeling about what

would come next.

As he suspected, Millie turned to him, eyes shining.

“I really want to take him home, he’s just too adorable.”

A glance at the price tag on Snow’s cage confirmed he was for sale.

Millie often got lonely when Marcus was away on business trips, and she couldn’t help but think a dog

would be good company for her.

Marcus sighed slightly, looking at Snow who seemed to have already decided he belonged in Millie’s

arms.

“You do realize we already have a pig at home, right?”

Snow let out a sudden bark, almost as if understanding the conversation and expressing his

disapproval.

It was as though he were saying he wished to go home with the lovely girl instead.

“Good boy.” Millie petted Snow’s back to calm him and looked puzzled.

“We don’t have a pig at home, what are you talking about?”

Marcus couldn’t help but chuckle as he gently pinched Millie’s nose.

“I was referring to you. You’re born in the year of the Pig, aren’t you?”

Oh, you cheeky guy!

Millie couldn’t believe it.

As a child, her classmates had teased her by calling her a pig, which had always felt like they were also

calling her dim-witted.

Seeing the less-than-pleased expression on Millie’s face, Marcus explained his concerns.

“Look, as much as Snow is cute, we can’t keep a dog right now. Your job keeps you busy, and I worry

you won’t have the time to properly care for him. He looks well-kept now because the shop owner

feeds him, but who’s going to feed him if we’re both away? Plus, you sometimes forget to eat yourself

when you’re swamped with work.”

Marcus had little interest in pets, attributing his disinterest to concerns about parasites and the mess

they could make around the house.

Snow seemed to implore Millie with his eyes, as if silently pleading, “Take me with you.”
