Chapter 11

Author: Carnival Kid
While the Kensingtons and the Wellingtons were busy preparing for the wedding, I was busy digging holes in the yard. I dug one hole after another, uprooting Chloe's expensive flowers and planting the sweet potatoes and lettuce that I liked instead.

After finding out what I had done, Chloe was so furious that she fainted twice. However, I carried on regardless.

"Drake, what on earth are you trying to do?" Sage asked in exasperation, standing at the edge of the yard and looking at me, who was

  • Capybara Heir Crawls Home to the Rich   Chapter 12

    Matthew was arrested soon after because I provided some crucial evidence. For instance, the voice recorder he had hidden inside the stuffed toy. It captured Drake's last moments.On the day the police came to take Matthew away, he desperately tried to charge at me and tear my face apart. "Drake Kensington, you crazy bastard! You're not Drake!"I stood on the steps, holding a bright red orange in my hand and balancing it steadily on top of my head. "Oh, you're right. I'm not him. I'm just a passing envoy of justice who happened to stop by to settle a score."When Matthew was shoved into the police car, Jasmine lurked in the shadows nearby. The way she looked at me was filled with scrutiny and a sinister confidence that told me she was certain of her victory. Jasmine walked up to me and smiled. "Drake, now that you've gotten rid of that eyesore, are you happy?"I let her hand brush against my skin. The slick sensation felt as if a venomous snake was slithering over me."What's hap

    While the Kensingtons and the Wellingtons were busy preparing for the wedding, I was busy digging holes in the yard. I dug one hole after another, uprooting Chloe's expensive flowers and planting the sweet potatoes and lettuce that I liked instead. After finding out what I had done, Chloe was so furious that she fainted twice. However, I carried on regardless. "Drake, what on earth are you trying to do?" Sage asked in exasperation, standing at the edge of the yard and looking at me, who was covered in dirt.I stopped shoveling and wiped away the sweat from my forehead. "I'm preparing a backup plan. If the Wellingtons go bankrupt, I can at least survive on these lettuces."Sage scoffed. "You must be out of your mind if you think the Wellingtons will go bankrupt."I smiled, but I didn't elaborate. I continued spending my days basking in the sun and daydreaming.…Chloe started frequenting my storage room. She replaced my bedding with the softest silk sheets and filled the room w

    The dining room instantly fell so silent that one could've heard a pin drop. Matthew blanched in an instant. Garrett frowned. "What on earth are you blabbering about? What hand?"I withdrew my gaze and went back to chewing on my lettuce with my head down. "Oh, I must've remembered it wrong. Perhaps it was a giant crab that was jealous of my good looks." Matthew sprang to his feet. "I… I don't feel well. I'll head back to my room first."I smiled as I watched him flee. Matthew was shaking in his boots.…In the days that followed, I became a ghost in the Kensington residence. Garrett and Chloe were busy ironing out the wedding details with the Wellingtons. A week before the wedding, Matthew burst into my room and smashed everything I owned. "What right do you have to marry Jasmine, Drake? I'm the one she loves!"I sat in my chair and quietly stared at the debris on the floor. "Oh, you should go take it up with her."Matthew trembled with rage. I rose to my feet and amb

  • Capybara Heir Crawls Home to the Rich   Chapter 9

    Noticing there was no lettuce on the dinner table, I simply sat there and zoned out.…On the drive back, Jasmine abruptly grasped my hand. "I really didn't appreciate what you said back there, Drake. I don't like greedy men." Then, she squeezed my knuckles hard, sending a sharp, distinct wave of pain through my hand. I didn't resist. I merely turned my head and looked at her quietly. "Ms. Wellington, do you know why capybaras get along so well with all kinds of animals?"Jasmine frowned. "No. Why do you ask?""Because in the eyes of a capybara, whether you're a lion or a bunny, you'll all turn into nutrients for the earth. So, I don't care if you're happy or not, because in my eyes, you're already well on your way to becoming fertilizer."Her expression instantly hardened, and she slammed on the brakes. "Drake Kensington, you asked for this!" She wrapped her hands around my neck, pinning me hard against the headrest. My breathing grew labored, but I still didn't panic.I sim

  • Capybara Heir Crawls Home to the Rich   Chapter 8

    Drake was thrashing, begging for mercy. Yet, Jasmine merely sneered as she forced the drug down his throat… I felt a violent surge of nausea welling up from deep within this body. It was a trauma etched into its soul.My grip tightened around the door handle, my fingernails digging into the seat and leaving a stark white mark on the leather trim. "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Jasmine noticed something was off with me. I took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed the nausea. "I'm fine. I just think the air in here is too filthy." Jasmine snorted and floored the gas pedal.…Wellington Manor was situated in the suburbs. The moment I stepped into the living room, Jasmine's parents were already waiting for us."Oh, it's so good to have you back, Drake." Jasmine's mother, Jane Smith, took my hand, wearing a phony smile. "I think we should host your wedding with Jasmine as soon as possible."I pulled my hand away and sat down in the largest mahogany chair in the cent

  • Capybara Heir Crawls Home to the Rich   Chapter 7

    I didn't think there was anything wrong with what I'd said. I was merely offering a sincere piece of advice. As a capybara, I'd always believed that while running away might be shameful, it was genuinely useful. "Drake, how can you upset Dad like this?" Matthew started his performance again, his voice choked with emotion. "Jasmine was scared out of her wits by you tonight. She's your future wife, for goodness' sake!"I turned my head and quietly stared at Matthew. I noticed that his foundation was too cakey. Under the lights, he looked like a moldy steamed bun. "She wasn't scared. I merely struck a nerve, and she's probably busy stitching herself back together," I slowly said before padding my way up the stairs. "Hold it right there!" Sage lunged forward and blocked my path. "Jasmine just called. She said she'll pick you up tomorrow to have dinner at Wellington Manor. She said she wants to help you recover your lost memories." Looking into Sage's eyes, which were filled with c
