Chapter 4
When I took Knox back home, my parents were
surprised to see the thrall I chose, and their
eyes were filled with smiles.
“Shay, the thrall you picked is good.”
I was sad to see my parents again.
I still remember when I brought Gavin home last
time, my parents only glanced at him before
making a decision.
“This thrall is no good. His eyes are full of
ambition and schemes.”
It’s a pity that I was obsessed with Gavin’s
beauty and thought that he had just had some
bad experiences and was wary of people. It
didn’t matter if he had ambition and schemes.
I even ignored my parents‘ objections and used
<
my resources and connections to pave the way
for Gavin.
That’s how Gavin went from being a small
illegitimate son and a lowlife thrall to being
accepted back into the Fox clan and becoming
the family heir.
The truth is, I was wrong.
I thought Gavin was just dissatisfied with his
shameful past, but he was just an ungrateful
bastard, and I brought him on myself.
I don’t know what happened to my parents after
I died. Did they continue to be blinded by
Maddie?
Just as I was thinking about Maddie, she came
to my house with Gavin.
“Uncle, Aunt, this is the thrall I chose. What do
you think?”
<
The smile on my parents‘ faces faded a little.
“Maddie, as long as you like him.”
Maddie has always liked to compare herself to
me since she was a kid, and my parents have
been unhappy with her for a long time, but they
don’t want to interfere too much because of
family ties.
Maddie took Gavin to me.
“Come on, say hello to my cousin.”
Compared to his unwillingness when he was
beaten, Gavin was much gentler now. He
followed behind her and greeted me.
“Yes, Mistress.”
Maddie smiled smugly.
“Sis, you see, a beast is a beast. After you beat
<
it up, it knows who’s feeding it. After the
bonding, it will listen to me.”
Gavin echoed obediently.
“It’s hard work for the Mistress. It’s my honor to
be by your side.”
I’ve always treated Gavin like a human being
and never bonded with him.
Since he likes being a dog, I don’t mind beating
a dog when it’s down.
I smiled and left with Knox.
“Then I wish you good luck, my sister.”
I was wondering what to do next, how to deal
with Gavin and Maddie.
The bathroom door was suddenly pushed open.
Knox was tall and slender, with a loose towel
<
hanging around his waist. His bare upper body
was still dripping with hot water, which was a
bit alluring.
Knox noticed my gaze and looked away
awkwardly.
“Mistress, why did you pick me?”
Mistress… cough, so embarrassing.
Looking at his bare upper body, I couldn’t help
but touch his dripping abs.
“Mistress? Just call me Shay. Of course, I
chose you because you’re worth it. You’re
younger than him, stronger than him, and
more…”
He grabbed my wandering hand, his ears
turning red.
“Mistress, not here.”
