Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 2242

Due to the gag, the only things that escaped her mouth were muffled noises that couldn’t even rival the sounds on the radio! But she couldn’t give up just yet…!

As she continued trying her best to scream, Leo and the other man finally answered the door and asked, “Hello? How may we help you?”

“Ah, we’re just here to conduct a census survey. Could you please hand us your account books? And get everyone in the household to present themselves. If any of you are out, then please provide names for us.”

Finding their thoroughness slightly odd, Leo paused for a moment before ultimately nodding and handing them what they asked for.

After looking through the details, the officer asked, “…Shouldn’t this house only belong to one person?”

“About that… I live a bit further down the road, but since this boy wasn’t born quite right in the head, I moved in with him.”

“If that’s the case, get us your account book, then. Please hurry.”

“Will do,” replied Leo as he hurriedly hobbled off.

Having nothing better to do, the officers began looking around… and after deducting that there was nothing suspicious about the place, they turned to look at the old man before asking, “So, you live here on your own?”

Naturally, Xavia immediately began screaming with all her might! Sure, it was muffled, but she was sure that they would eventually be able to hear her! They just needed to open the door…!

Sadly for her, Leo had taught the old man a method to avoid suspicion… And upon remembering Leo’s words, the old man goofily replied, “Oh that? It’s just a doggy! A small, stinky dog that likes to bite!”

As if! Though feeling extremely humiliated, Xavia suddenly realized that there was another sound she could make! The chains! Quickly shaking her limbs around, she couldn’t help but squeal in muffled joy when she saw the door slowly opening! She was finally going to be free…!

Alas, before the officers could even take a few steps in to look around, an actual dog began barking as it rushed out from behind the piles of fallen firewood!
