Chasing After My Wife - Chapter 512

Jillyanna went downstairs to get the milk for her baby but something caught her eyes outside the house. Instead of walking towards the kitchen, she went out for a bit and found a small box near the gate. There was no name written on it and the thing that caught her eyes earlier was the small mirror which was attached on top of the box.

“I wonder who left this here.” she didn’t pick it up since she had no idea what was inside it. “Travis?!” she yelled for his name to come outside the house.

“What is it? Why are you here? Weren’t you sleeping upstairs?” he asked while running towards her.

“That is not important. What’s important is this.” She pointed at the box near the gate while looking around the place. “No one reported anything suspicious. Is someone guarding the security room? Why didn’t anyone notice this?”

“That’s weird. Shein and the others just got home and they didn’t say anything either.” Travis reached out for her hand and moved her out of the way, shielding her from anything harmful or from anyone lurking in the dark.

Top just came back from getting some water and seeing that the two of them were wary about something outside, he was quite alarmed as well. “Boss, young madam, what happened?”

“Uh..Do you now who left that box?” Jillyanna asked him while pointing at the box again. Top shook his head and opened the gate wider to get out. He looked to his left and right but he didn’t find anyone.

Just as he was about to pick it up, the box moved and the three of them were so surprised that they instantly stepped back. The box burst open from the inside and what greeted them was a small robot. Its head was super round and it had big eyes. The legs were made of wheels and it had complete metallic fingers.

“This is Astro. The most intelligent robot. Do you like me?”

“OH MY GOSH! JUST WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!” Jillyanna exclaimed and walked towards her husband’s side so that she can see the little thing clearly. “This is awesome! Who made this?! Was anyone playing a prank on me?”

“As much as I want to surprise you, this is not from me.” Travis told her immediately.

“Then, who brought this one here?” Top asked in wonder as well. As far as he remembered, Shein and the others came home earlier but none of them left a box outside the gate.

“Let me question you again, do you like me?” Astro, the little robot asked with his cute little voice.

“No, I don’t like you.” Travis answered the robot with intense glare.

“I can sense that you despise me but, I am not asking you the question. I am asking the woman beside you.”

Jillyanna was thrown into a fit of laughter when the robot responded. It was very intelligent indeed. She was holding her stomach from laughing so hard and her husband was even more upset with the robot. He was just about to kick it when the robot spoke again.

“Don’t kick me, bad guy. I am here to help.”

“Help? I don’t need your help.” Travis crossed his arms over his chest and snorted. “Pick that scrap metal and burn him.” He ordered Top and left to go back inside the house.

Jillyanna was still laughing silently, her shoulders were shaking uncontrollably. “Don’t throw him. Put him inside the box again and send him to Shein. Let him know about what happened.”

“Shein?! No! I don’t want to face that brat! Astro doesn’t like that brat.”

“Oh? Really?!! Then, I just made the right choice.” Jillyanna smiled and followed her husband inside. Since the robot’s legs had wheels, it ran on the ground when Top was trying to catch it. It had fixed its mind not meet Shein.

She already guessed who the secret sender was but, she was really bothered by something. The past few days, his messages sounded perverted and threatening and now, he sent a robot to help her. ‘Just what exactly is he trying to do?’ Jillyanna thought to herself. And since she was spacing out, she didn’t notice that Travis already stopped walking and she bumped right on his chest.

“What are you thinking that made you space out?” he asked his wife as he rubbed her forehead that bumped him.

“I was just wondering what that man was up to.” She admitted it honestly to him.

“Don’t think too much about it. He will show himself up, sooner or later.”

Half an hour had passed and Top was still chasing after the small robot. Despite being small, it ran so fast on uneven ground. Rocks and weeds couldn’t stop it at all. And it was a little difficult for a big guy like him to catch something so small, smaller than Jade.

The robot didn’t know where to go and just went to random places to run from its capturer. Even though it claimed itself as the most intelligent robot, it was still considered stupid. Why? Because he sent himself to Shein. It didn’t know that the direction it was running to was towards the backyard where the other houses were located. And out of three houses, it even chose the one that Shein lived in.

Top was secretly enjoying himself since he didn’t need to do anything much. The robot made it all the way to Shein’s place.

Shein heard the commotion outside and saw Top chasing after a small thing, something so familiar to him. A smile appeared on his lips and he ran downstairs to help Top catch it.

The robot bumped into something sturdy and couldn’t move. When it raised its head, it was like a person who was traumatized when it met its phobia. It didn’t move and just watched Shein’s face getting closer and closer to him.

“It’s nice to see you again, Astro. Did your lovely husband repair you after our last meeting?”
