Chapter 769
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âAh, Iâm just too kind-hearted.â Robbie breathed out deeply and looked at the eagle.
The eagle was looking at him, but this time, its eyes grew warm.
The child furrowed his brows, as he had no choice but to risk getting hurt to retrieve the ring.
Mustering up his courage, he moved closer and tried to get the ring off the eagleâs talon.
The eagle flapped its wings out of the blue, and Robbie jumped from shock. Then it retracted its wings and stop scaring the child.
Robbie continued pulling the ring and said, âPlease donât move. I just want to get the ring and I mean no harm. This ring belongs to my Mommy and it must be returned.â
The eagleâs talon was hurt, so it couldnât move as it looked at the human child.
After a while, Robbie finally retrieved the ring. Taking out a clean, wet cloth from his bag, he removed the bloodstains on the ring and kept it in his bag before leaving.
When he was about to leave, he looked at the eagle and realized he couldnât bring himself to leave it behind.
It cannot fly. Its owner might not be able to find it here. If other beasts attack it, that will be the death of it.
That thought made Robbie halt in his tracks. He took out the first aid kit from his bag and inched closer to the eagle carefully. âIâll bandage your wounds, so donât move. Do you understand?â
The eagle didnât seem to give any response while it looked at the child with a gentle gaze.
He used some iodine to disinfect its wounds and applied some medicinal powder before wrapping the wound with some bandages.
Robbie had been to the hospital often, and there was medical staff at his house, so he knew the simple steps of treating the wounds. However, he didnât put it into practice, so the way he bandaged was rather unsightly.
Looking at the eagle wrapped up like a tortilla, Robbie sighed in relief. âI wanted to carry out some investigation here. Just in case I get hurt, I brought the first aid kit with me, and it actually comes in handy.â
Suddenly, the eagle let out a âcoo cooâ and became docile.
Pfft! Robbie was stunned for a while before bursting into laughter. âYou sound like Fifi.â
When the eagle heard the name âFifi,â it became excited and continued to coo, as if it was well acquainted with the name.
âFifi is a parrot. Youâve seen it before. Itâs the one that flew out and protected meâ¦â Robbie talked to the eagle while treating its wounds.
However, the medicine he brought was not enough, and it ran out before he could finish treating every wound.
âWell, thatâs all I can do.â The child packed up his things and tried to carry the eagle, but it was way too heavy for him.
âIâll have to carry you up the hill. Or else, youâll die here and your owner wonât be able to find you.â With that, Robbie found himself a big branch and placed the eagle onto the branch before dragging it up the hill.
The eagle lay on the branch obediently while its sharp gaze started turning gentle and warm.
Halfway up the hill, Robbieâs hands were scrapped, but he paid no attention to the stinging pain and swung his hands before continuing with his climb upward.
At that moment, a familiar voice sounded from afar. âMr. Robinson!â
âMr. Robinsonâ¦â
âRobbie! Please come out now. Donât scare me.â
A few bodyguards called out to Robbie, followed by Henryâs worried voice.
Robbie glanced back at the eagle and hurriedly said, âShoot! My Great-grandpa and the others are here.â
The eagle cooed at him.
âRobbieâ¦â
The shouts were getting louder and clearer. Robbie furrowed his brows and hesitated. âThey mustnât see you. Or else, it will cause a misunderstanding. I have to leave but donât worry, Iâll get your owner to save you. Trust me.â
