Chapter 801
Sunny’s cars instantly perked the moment she saw Rachel. Her big, glistening eyes fixed on Rachel with deep affection.
Only people who have raised dogs would understand. That gaze held a tenderness beyond anything else, as if the whole world had vanished and only she remained.
Sunny bounded toward Rachel, who quickly caught her in her arms. Excited, Sunny pawed playfully at Rachel’s chest.
“Sunny, have you been doing well? Did you miss me?” Rachel asked.
Sunny barked twice, as if answering her.
Rachel beamed with joy.
Tyler walked in from behind. “Well, aren’t you happy?”
Rachel stood up and looked at him. “When did you bring her back?”
“Yesterday. I’d already been making arrangements earlier, but since it was such a long trip, I was worried the dog might get stressed out. The distance is no joke. They did all sorts of tests over there first to make sure she could handle a long–haul flight before I had her flown over.”
Rachel felt truly grateful.
“This dog and I have a special bond. Back when I was overseas, she even saved my life once. That’s why I decided to adopt her.”
Leaning against the doorframe, Tyler asked, “So you decided to bring Sunny back because of Ray?”
“Yeah. Honestly, I didn’t like dogs before. But Ray changed my mind. I realized dogs could be adorable.”
As she spoke, Rachel pulled Sunny into her arms again. Sunny’s fur brushed against her cheek and tickled her
skin.
Sunny wagged her tail and snuggled against Rachel. The blue bell Rachel had tied to her collar before leaving still dangled there.
Since Ray was brought up, Rachel grew uneasy.
*“Ray and Sunny are different breeds. Do you think they’ll get along? I’m just afraid Ray might bully her.”
Tyler asked, “Sunny’s a female, right?”
“Yeah. When I first adopted her, I didn’t even realize it. Later on, I found out female dogs could be a hassle. My coworker used to take her out for walks, and random male dogs would just run up to her out of nowhere. I had such a hard time shooing them away on every occasion. I even thought about getting her spayed.”
“Then you can stop worrying. Ray’s a male dog. They’re a perfect match. They’ll be fine together. You don’t need to stress about that at all.”

hist then, Ray darted past Tyler’s legs and trotted up to Sunny, Rachel watched closely in the beginning since she was still a little worried.
She crouched down and gently coaxed Ray.
“Ray, this is my dog. Her name is Simny. She’s very gentle. Don’t you dare bully her!”
