Chapter 85 The Young Man In White
Peyton remembered as soon as she heard Kevinâs words. She had met many eccentric people before,
and one of Nolanâs good friends was one of them. While everyone at the club was drinking Champagne
Armand 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 a
pedicure at the same time, and muttering âhealth comes firstâ in his mouth.
Apart from this guy, only Kevin was the strangest. He had been afraid of animals with sharp teeth and
fur since he was a child.
That year, Kevin came to Kasonâs 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 one
hand and looked at Kevin with a smile, âDonât be afraid, Iâve got it. Give me your hand, Iâll help you
down.â
âIs it you? Are you still afraid of cats now?â Peyton recalled the scene back then and couldnât help but
laugh.
Kevin said, âIn order to overcome this weakness, I kept several cats at home. I am no longer afraid of
cats. How is Dawn doing?â
Peytonâs expression was somewhat sad. At that time, Dawn had already been a thirteenâyearâold 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, âItâs gone. Maybe it became a stray cat, or maybe it has already died.â
When Peyton first married Nolan, she had thought about bringing Dawn over. However, Nolan didnât
like furry little animals, so she didnât mention it.
Kevin saw her disappointed expression and said, âTwo years ago, I found a white cat that looked quite
old. I wonder if itâs the Dawn youâre looking for?â
Peytonâs expression changed, and she asked, âAre there any photos?â.
Kevin said, âYes.â
Kevin quickly opened his phone album. In the photo, there was a long- haired white cat lying under a
plum tree, its deep blue eyes gazing at the plum blossoms.
Peyton said, âIt was Dawn.â
Peyton was excited. When Dawn was wandering, a piece of its ear was bitten off by a mouse, which is
its most prominent feature.
Kevin said, âBack 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 of
videos about Dawn, Peyton. Do you want to watch them?â
Peyton sat on the circular sofa, staring intently at Dawn in the video.
Peyton said, âI can tell that you took good care of Dawn. She was already old, but still so lively and had
a beautiful coat.â
Kevin smiled and said, âDawn was very wellâbehaved. It liked to stay under the plum tree, as if waiting
for someone. I didnât know what it was thinking before, but now I know it must have been waiting for
you.â
Peyton looked at the white cat under the plum tree. Her eyes were slightly moist, and her fingertips slid
across the cold screen, as if touching Dawnâs soft body.
Peyton said, âIt was my fault. I lost it.â
She lost the Schmitt family, lost Kason, lost her children. Even Dawn, she lost her too.
Kevin said, âDonât worry, Dawn didnât suffer much. When you have time, I will send it over to you.â
Peyton shook his head and said, âThank you, but you can continue taking care of it. I am currently
unable to take care of it.â
Kevin said, âOkay, letâs add each other on WhatsApp. In the future, I can send you Dawnâs videos.â
Peyton wanted to refuse. She felt it was unnecessary because she had no intention of leaving the
cruise ship alive today.
But she thought about how Kevin had taken care of Dawn for so long, and she felt too embarrassed to
refuse him.
Peyton took out his phone and exchanged phone numbers with Kevin, and also added each other as
WhatsApp friends.
Helena saw this scene and found it particularly ironic. She whispered in Nolanâs ear, âDo you see that?
Iâve always said that Peyton is not a wellâbehaved woman. She just arrived at the dinner and already
met a new man.â
