All Chapters of Abandoned On the Highway for a Dog: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

As we were passing a toll booth, Yvonne, who had insisted on squeezing into the car with us, spotted a stray dog and demanded that we take it home.He completely ignored my objections.Instead, he looked at Yvonne with a questioning gaze.“Yvonne, look at this poor puppy. If we just leave it here, it’ll definitely freeze to death.”“It’s still so young. It hasn’t even seen the world yet. It shouldn’t die here like this.”As she spoke, she pulled the puppy tightly into his arms.Yvonne tenderly took the coat I had left in the car, wrapped it around the puppy, and spoke as though the rest of us did not exist.“Don’t worry. I won’t abandon it.”“Don’t get your own clothes dirty. Use this coat to keep it warm.”Then she turned to me with clear displeasure. “Charles, how can you be so heartless?”“To you, this may just be a stray dog, but it’s a living being.”“You can really just ignore it like this? How can you be so cold?”I looked at the two of them, at a loss for words over

They were thanking me out loud, but secretly they were loving the attention.They were all cozy inside the car with the heater blasting, while I stood outside solo, shivering in the icy wind.The contrast could not have been sharper.“Yvonne, do you even remember who your husband is?” That one line made her scowl instantly. “Even if you are my husband, you can’t just throw a tantrum!”“I’m not making you walk home. I’m just asking you to take a cab. Why are you making such a big deal out of it?”“Charles, when are you ever going to lighten up?”Then, with a dramatic “bang,” she slammed the car door and started the car engine.“Honestly, if you’re going to waste time arguing with me, you might as well just take a cab.”“Don’t make us miss dinner!”Yvonne’s parents immediately reminded me when they heard the word dinner. “Charles, remember to buy some fresh ingredients on your way back.”“The eggs back home might be expired, don’t forget some new ones.”“And Dad hasn’t bee

The property management team arrived quickly, several people in tow, and knocked on my door.Yvonne stared at them, completely confused. “Can I help you?”One of the staff replied politely, “Hello, we’re from the property management. We received a complaint that someone broke into the apartment, so we came to check.”Yvonne frowned and glanced at her parents. “Did you guys call them?”Both of them shook their heads. Evan even seemed puzzled.She turned back to the staff with a displeased look on her face. “No one here called you. Are you sure you have the right apartment?”“Next time, can you make sure before showing up and bothering us tenants…”Her words were cut off by me, “I called.”Her anger instantly shifted to me.“Charles! Have you lost it? First the cops, now the property management. What are you trying to do?!”“It’s New Year’s Eve. You can’t just cause trouble.”“Can’t anyone have a peaceful holiday?”I gave her a cold stare. ‘You? You think you get to lecture

The next morning, I was still half asleep under the covers.Bang, bang, bang! A loud knock echoed through the door.I did not expect I would be greeted by Yvonne when I opened the door. She stood there with her chin lifted and an air of smug arrogance.She shoved past me without hesitation, strode straight into my place, and collapsed onto my couch as if she owned it.Trailing in behind her were her parents, several relatives from the Johnson family, and, of course, Evan. Not a single one was missing.Seven or eight people crammed into my living room, instantly filling the space with noise and accusations.“Charles, don’t you think you went too far? Kicking your wife and in-laws out of the house during the New Year. Do you have any conscience at all?”“What kind of son-in-law behaves like that? If you had an issue, couldn’t you talk it out instead of tormenting the elderly?”“They raised you, and now you repay them by making them suffer? Is there no justice left in this world?”

I almost laughed out loud when I saw that ridiculous scene.Yvonne, on the other hand, was fuming and smashing things around my house.I frowned in annoyance. “All of this stuff cost me real money, you know. And you’re smashing it like it’s nothing.”I patted Blackie, crouched on the passenger seat, and said, “Well, let’s make her pay for it all.”Blackie barked twice as though it was agreeing. What a clever little thing.After enjoying the show, I left with Blackie and headed to the hotel.After a hearty meal, my lawyer and bodyguards were already on their way to Johnson’s old residence.I glanced at them, still lounging arrogantly in the apartment, and smiled to myself. It was the perfect timing for taking back the property.I unlocked the front door with my fingerprint.Yvonne, who had been relaxed a moment ago, instantly snapped to attention.“You’re back? Don’t you understand human language?!”“We’re still married. This house belongs to both of us. Don’t even think abou
