Chapter 1791
The obese man was humiliated in public but dared not unleash his wrath on Lucian, so he ended up chiding the keeper.
“How did you train the dolphins? My son was nearly hit by them! You need to take responsibility for this!”
The keeper's eyes flashed with fury as the urge to slap the man just like how Lucian did earlier rose in his heart.
However, he managed to keep his cool as the dolphins' safety was more important. There were many visitors, and he would sometimes run into one or two unreasonable ones.
“Sir, I had already made it clear to your son that he was to abide by my instructions,” the keeper declared sternly. “Unfortunately, he disregarded my warnings and made a reckless move that nearly caused harm to a baby dolphin. Remember, these are wild animals - they will not hesitate to take revenge on those who mistreat them.”
The two adult dolphins behind him came on shore and inched nearer to the plump guy as though they could understand his words.
The overweight man might be overweight, but he was less than two hundred pounds, so two adult dolphins were strong enough to send him flying.
Both father and son blanched in horror.
The audience were pleased to see their reaction.
“S-Stop the dolphins from coming! What do they want to do?”
The keeper ignored the overweight man's pleas for help, looking on with a detached expression as the adult dolphins slowly approached. The man's bravado quickly dissipated, and he began to panic, his screams echoing throughout the aquarium.
His son's face was pale with fright, too. That was the first time he realized dolphins could be the opposite of adorable.
As the desired results had been achieved, the keeper barked out an order. The adult dolphins finally turned around and returned to their baby.
Seeing that, the triplets shared a look and burst into giggles.
“The adult dolphins are amazing. They protected their baby!” Estella gazed at her parents, her eyes questioning if she had made the correct assumption.
Lucian and Roxanne both nodded in agreement, their faces lighting up with broad smiles.
“Okay. The baby dolphin must be scared, though. I'd like to take a look at it.” With that, Estella released her grip on Roxanne and hopped toward the keeper.
“Essie, don't go. The baby dolphin's parents are still upset,” Archie reminded her.
Lucian instantly went after her.
The keeper was quick to caution the little girl as soon as he noticed her approaching the dolphins. “Little girl, don't come over now. The adult dolphins are very protective of their baby now. They will be hostile to anyone other than me.”
Lucian stopped Estella and nodded in agreement. “Essie, listen to the keeper.”
Estella bobbed her head obediently. From a distance away, she waved at the baby dolphin. “Baby dolphin, are you okay? Don't be scared. I'll visit you next time, and we can perform together again!”
The audience were charmed by her words.
To everyone's surprise, the baby dolphin left its parents and came to Estella happily as though it had understood her words.
The creature slowly extended its neck so that Estella could stroke its head once more.
Estella giggled excitedly and reached out to pat its head.
The baby dolphin made a noise to indicate that it was delighted.
It was a harmonious sight. Many people pulled out their phones to record the sight.
Even Roxanne couldn't help but record the wonderful moment that her daughter was part of.
The keeper was initially worried, but as he looked on, his worry gradually morphed into awe and pride. “It looks like the baby dolphin adores your daughter!”
Lucian gave a terse dip of his head to indicate his agreement. His brows were furrowed with worry as he kept his gaze focused on the adult dolphins, dreading the possibility that they could misinterpret Estella's presence and become aggressive.
Luckily, that didn't happen.
The adult dolphins seemed to understand their baby's intention, for they watched from afar without moving.
