Chapter 85 The Young Man In White

Peyton remembered as soon as she heard Kevin’s words. She had met many eccentric people before,and one of Nolan’s good friends was one of them. While everyone at the club was drinking ChampagneArmand de Brignac with ice cubes, this guy was drinking hot herbal tea.

Everyone was looking for spicy girls to drink with, this guy was wearing an eye mask, getting apedicure at the same time, and muttering “health comes first” in his mouth.

Apart from this guy, only Kevin was the strangest. He had been afraid of animals with sharp teeth andfur since he was a child.

That year, Kevin came to Kason’s birthday party with Jaxon

Carrington, but he was chased up a tree by Dawn and dared not come down.

A group of children below were mocking Kevin, but only Peyton held the back of a white cat with onehand and looked at Kevin with a smile, “Don’t be afraid, I’ve got it. Give me your hand, I’ll help youdown.”

“Is it you? Are you still afraid of cats now?” Peyton recalled the scene back then and couldn’t help butlaugh.

Kevin said, “In order to overcome this weakness, I kept several cats at home. I am no longer afraid ofcats. How is Dawn doing?”

Peyton’s expression was somewhat sad. At that time, Dawn had already been a thirteen–year–old cat.When the Schmitt family went bankrupt, Peyton was pregnant and Kason had been in a car accident.When Peyton went to pick up Dawn, Dawn had already disappeared.

Peyton said, “It’s gone. Maybe it became a stray cat, or maybe it has already died.”

When Peyton first married Nolan, she had thought about bringing Dawn over. However, Nolan didn’tlike furry little animals, so she didn’t mention it.

Kevin saw her disappointed expression and said, “Two years ago, I found a white cat that looked quiteold. I wonder if it’s the Dawn you’re looking for?”

Peyton’s expression changed, and she asked, “Are there any photos?“.

Kevin said, “Yes.”

Kevin quickly opened his phone album. In the photo, there was a long- haired white cat lying under aplum tree, its deep blue eyes gazing at the plum blossoms.

Peyton said, “It was Dawn.”

Peyton was excited. When Dawn was wandering, a piece of its ear was bitten off by a mouse, which isits most prominent feature.

Kevin said, “Back then, I found this cat wandering. Its ears looked just like the ears of the cat I sa

when I was a child. So, I brought it home and adopted it, not knowing it was your cat. I have a lot ofvideos about Dawn, Peyton. Do you want to watch them?”

Peyton sat on the circular sofa, staring intently at Dawn in the video.

Peyton said, “I can tell that you took good care of Dawn. She was already old, but still so lively and hada beautiful coat.”

Kevin smiled and said, “Dawn was very well–behaved. It liked to stay under the plum tree, as if waitingfor someone. I didn’t know what it was thinking before, but now I know it must have been waiting for

you.”

Peyton looked at the white cat under the plum tree. Her eyes were slightly moist, and her fingertips slidacross the cold screen, as if touching Dawn’s soft body.

Peyton said, “It was my fault. I lost it.”

She lost the Schmitt family, lost Kason, lost her children. Even Dawn, she lost her too.

Kevin said, “Don’t worry, Dawn didn’t suffer much. When you have time, I will send it over to you.”

Peyton shook his head and said, “Thank you, but you can continue taking care of it. I am currentlyunable to take care of it.”

Kevin said, “Okay, let’s add each other on WhatsApp. In the future, I can send you Dawn’s videos.”

Peyton wanted to refuse. She felt it was unnecessary because she had no intention of leaving thecruise ship alive today.

But she thought about how Kevin had taken care of Dawn for so long, and she felt too embarrassed torefuse him.

Peyton took out his phone and exchanged phone numbers with Kevin, and also added each other asWhatsApp friends.

Helena saw this scene and found it particularly ironic. She whispered in Nolan’s ear, “Do you see that?I’ve always said that Peyton is not a well–behaved woman. She just arrived at the dinner and alreadymet a new man.”
