My Dreamy Old Husband
Chapter 1115

On the last day of filming, it was announced that everyone could leave as soon as lunch time wasover.

Half a day—they only needed to get through half a day before all of them could be set free.Everyone prayed silently for things to go off without a hitch.

All the five celebrity dads were physically and emotionally drained as they finally began to realizehow their wives were the true pillars of the family.

They only had to take care of their kids for two short days, but they felt as though they'd aged adecade.

Carmen was Michael's precious little girl and he had always enjoyed their father-daughter bondingtime even back when she was a baby. Babysitting was hardly a challenge for him, but Sophia-sittingwas—there was no telling what she would be up to next.

True to her nature, Sophia was now hiding in the crowd, probably waiting to make a mess out ofthings. She wasn't using her contacts and somehow that had drawn Carmen's gaze toward her.Carmen perked up as she picked the blue-eyed Sophia right out of the horde of villagers.“Mommy!” she cried out happily.

Carmen took off at a run and planted herself firmly in Sophia's embrace.

Sophia was startled but she wrapped her arms around Carmen anyway.

That one hug brought forth an astounding ripple effect.

The remaining four children who witnessed this scene immediately turned toward their dads andbefore long...

"Wah! I want Mommy!"

“Daddy, I want Mommy now!”

The children were crestfallen to see that Carmen's mother had shown up but not their own. Soon,the sound of heart-wrenching sobs and incoherent wails filled the air.

The celebrity dads grew flustered.

The kids had woken up on the wrong side of the bed this morning and they'd spent hours trying toplacate them, for heaven's sake! What are we supposed to do now?

Sophia panicked as the sobbing and wailing went on, her hands clutching Carmen against her.Meanwhile, Michael winced. He had known that Sophia would mess things up one way or another.The out-of-hand situation worsened as all the dads tried to soothe their kids, all the while gloweringat Sophia.

Upon seeing that, the director heaved a frustrated sigh.

In light of all this, Michael went over to his wife, trying to make himself look as outraged as possible.He then ordered in a low voice, “Go back to the hotel and stay there. I'll see you tonight.”

“Fine,” Sophia muttered with a pout.

She knew she had messed up, so it was best if she left the set as soon as possible.

But just as she was leaving, Carmen began to cry. Sophia felt a stab to her heart and she instinctivelyturned back, only for Michael to dismiss her as he consoled Carmen, who was sobbing fitfully in hisarms

Sophia had grown anxious upon hearing Carmen's sobs and she couldn't budge at all. Dimon hadto rush over and frog-march her away from the set.

As she was about to leave, she thought she heard Michael coaxing Carmen out of her tantrum, hisvoice soothing as he murmured, “You have to choose between Mommy and Piggy..."

In the end, Carmen chose the pig.

The schedule had been delayed by an hour after Sophia's presence had caused a scene, buteventually the filming came to an end and everyone left in their cars after lunch.

Sophia hadn't shown up ever since that morning but throughout filming, Michael had spotted atleast eight more drones flying around the set. He had recognized them as the same military spydrones that were manufactured by the Michel Group.

That evening, Michael and Carmen boarded Sophia's private plane that was bound for Bayside City.Sophia had been waiting for them for what felt like ages.

“Mommy!” Carmen exclaimed as she ran toward Sophia with her arms stretched out.

Sophia happily picked up her little girl.

She felt relieved to know that Carmen had not lost any weight under Michael's care.

As Michael boarded the plane, Sophia noticed that his skin had a sun-kissed tinge to it. He cameover and pinched her cheeks, teasing, “You do underestimate me. Did you really think I'd let Carmengo hungry while she was with me?”

Sophia blushed, feeling sheepish. She had never intended to disrupt the filming process but herworries had gotten the better of her.

That said, Michael did seem unhappy and he had been sulking ever since he got on the plane.

One might have thought that Sophia's little stunt that morning had something to do with Michael'ssour mood, but no one could have guessed that it was because there was a buffalo aboard Linus"luxurious, billion-dollar private plane.

An actual, real-life buffalo!

There was also a pair of lambs aboard the flight. When the crew had assigned Carmen to help thevillagers tend to the sheep, they had not expected her to get attached to the lambs and she hadbeen insistent on bringing them back to Bayside City.

As if the lambs and the buffalo weren't enough, there was also a rooster, donkey, and piglet!Simply put, Michael was about to lose his mind.

All the other children had whined for their moms and had demanded to go home.

But no... not his Carmen. She had wanted pigs and buffaloes!

He was wrong to have conceded to her many absurd requests and he should not have been blindedby how adorable she was

Michael was deeply regretting his decision to allow Carmen to bring all these animals along withthem.

Even the old man in the village had made fun of him.

Before they had left the village, the old man had pulled him aside and said, “Miles, there's no usedenying that your daughter is destined to be a farmer. You should go back to the village and bewith May! That contractor will never be good enough for her!”

Michael did not know how to respond to that.

It wouldn't cost much to rear these animals but Carmen's intentions were clear—she wanted tokeep them as household pets!

She was going to turn the entire family home into a barnyard!

Harry, who was on the plane with them, was laughing hysterically.

He couldn’t wait to get back to Bayside City just to see how Linus would react once he discoveredhis private plane had been turned into a portable animal farm.

Carmen, on the other hand, was the only one who was excited about any of this. She was proudlyshowing off her new pets to Sophia.

“Mommy, can we put the buffalo in the fountain out front?”

“Can we let the lambs live in the gardens?”

“Can Piggy stay with me in my room?”

“The donkey would love staying on the balcony.”

Sophia frowned as she pondered her daughter's many requests.

To have lambs in the gardens, a buffalo in the fountain, a pig in the bedroom and a donkey on thebalcony... Sophia couldn't imagine how things would turn out if these were allowed.

She exchanged a knowing glance with Michael, each of them waiting for the other to come up withways to dissuade Carmen from her ambitious plans.

However, Michael immediately turned to his side and pretended to fall asleep.

Gritting her teeth, Sophia set to brainstorming. She had to convince Carmen to give up on the farmanimals within the two hours that it would take for this flight to arrive at Bayside City, or else thehouse really would be converted into a farm.

She turned to Carmen and began her patient lecture, which started with a long winding introductionon humanitarian philosophies and ended with the specifics of a pig's postnatal care. Having heardall of this, Carmen gave up on the buffalo, lambs and donkey, but she was adamant on keeping thepiglet and rooster.

Fortunately, it wouldn't take much to feed those two animals. Sophia figured that there would be asurplus from the cat food budget to cover the cost of feeding the chicken and pig.

It was dark by the time the plane landed in Bayside City. They stayed the night at the family farmoutside the city, effectively depositing the buffalo, donkey and lambs there. The next day, they tooka car back to Bayside City.

The piglet had been cleaned, vaccinated and dewormed. Carmen held it in her arms as she happilycombed through its short tufts of hair. She had also ceremoniously tied a bow around the piglet.“Michael, look—now we won't have to worry about it pooping everywhere!” Sophia pointed outcheerily as she picked up the piglet to show her husband. Michael, on the other hand, was worn out.He had been using an eye mask as he slept but now, he lifted up a corner of it to see the pigletdonning an oversize diaper. He was far too tired to protest so he merely nodded and hummed inresponse.

The rooster was also wearing a diaper to prevent unwanted accidents from happening on the wayback.

Truly, only the rich could rear chickens this way.

However, Michael did not want to put a diaper on the chicken; he wanted to slaughter it for itsmeat.

This episode of “Where Are We Going, Dad?" had come to an end. The last season of the show hadbeen a hit but there were viewers who had complained that the show was slow-paced and lackedcontent. Thus, the production team had taken the feedback into account and had released thisepisode within two weeks instead of the initial three.

For each episode filmed, it would be edited into two episodes which would be released on TV overthe course of two weeks, after which the cast and crew would take a week off before filming thenext episode.

It had only taken one episode for Carmen to amass an impressive collection of farm animals;Michael and Sophia hated to think what nine more episodes could lead to.
