Todos os capítulos de Holiday Dog-Sitting: My Client Is the Other Woman: Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 10

I took Bingo home with me, as my many years as a vet told me that there was something very off with him.Bingo had been an exuberant dog since he was a puppy. After reuniting with me, he had lunged at me in excitement, nuzzled me, wagged his tail…However, he had never once made a sound, not even a soft whine. He had been entirely silent, too silent.Anxious over my beloved dog, I placed him on my worktable and began gently examining him.His teeth were yellow and covered in plaque, while his gums were pale and colorless. Besides that, his fur was a dry, knotted mess that came off in clumps when I ran my fingers through it.Clearly, Bingo hadn't received even the most basic care.Taking a deep breath, I parted the long fur at the back of his neck and felt around his skin.Everywhere my fingers touched was uneven and rough, like scar tissue. Old and new, the jagged scars crisscrossed his entire neck.These were the scars left behind by prolonged and frequent use of a shock colla

I arrived at the parking garage to see Zachary and Sierra standing beside his car. Both of them were smiling widely as they stood inappropriately close to each other."Didn't I just send you home? Why have you come here?"Sierra wrapped her arms around his waist. "Bingo is missing… I just went out to throw the trash, only to come back and find him gone…"Zachary patted her back and comforted her, "He's just a dog. Who cares if he goes missing?""But you said he was a token of your love for me, a symbol of our relationship…"Gently cradling her cheeks, he pressed a kiss to her lips. "Be good now. She has so many other dogs in her clinic. Just tell me which one catches your interest, and I'll bring it to you again."Sierra tilted her head back to look up at him, tears still clinging to her lashes. "Zach, I can't bear to part with you. Keep me company again tonight, will you?""Don't be like this. We already talked about this. I've already spent two days with you," Zachary said, co

I wasn't sure if it was the bills that scared Zachary off or if it was something else, but he didn't bother me again.However, three days later, Sierra sought me out. She invited me out to a cafe near the vet clinic.The instant we sat down, she dumped a stack of photos on the table, all of which were intimate photos of her and Zachary.I merely glanced at the photos before curling my lips into a smirk."What are you trying to say?"Sierra picked up one of the photos. In it, both Sierra and Zachary looked much younger than they did now."Jessica, you say I'm the mistress, but the truth is, you're the mistress here! Zach and I have been together since our university years!"I squeezed the coffee cup tightly, my eyes narrowing slightly. Nevertheless, I quickly regained my composure."Then why did you keep silent for the past three years when you knew we'd gotten together? Ms. Goldman, I've been to your house, and I've also seen your social media account. If I truly was the mistre

I had no idea what Zachary did to appease Sierra, but there was no denying it was effective. Within hours, all related posts and videos had been deleted.She then used that account that had accused me of stealing Bingo to issue an apology, admitting that she'd accused me due to malicious competition and that she'd simply staged it to manipulate public opinion. She also admitted that the video and negative reviews had all been fabricated.Although some were suspicious of the truth behind the apology, most people ended up turning their hostility toward Sierra. The incessant harassment got to the point that she had no choice but to shut down all of those accounts.The incident was finally over, but the damage to my career was already done. Because of that, Zachary assumed that he now knew what my weakness was.Using that as a threat, he insisted that I go on with the wedding and resume paying for the house loan and other expenses. Besides that, he shamelessly expressed how he wanted t

After that, Zachary lost his nerve and never appeared before me again.However, I had severely underestimated just how crazy Sierra was.After she was fired by the hospital due to "a serious violation of professional ethics, causing a highly negative social impact", she turned all of her hatred and resentment toward me. Having lost everything, she swiftly took me to court, claiming that I had damaged her reputation by publicly stating her real name and workplace on the internet.Nonetheless, I faced the court case calmly.In the end, the judge ruled that I had indeed mishandled Sierra's personal information when exposing her online, so I had to make her a public apology.My lawyer shot me a worried look. "Ms. Lane, we can ask for a retrial…""No need." I folded the written judgment. "I'll apologize."That afternoon, I set up my phone camera in the treatment room of my clinic. After starting the recording, I looked into the camera and began speaking."Good day, everyone. I'm J
