My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 312

In the basement, Abel had been working continuously for yet another 18 hours, but his bloodshot eyes still revealed his high spirits.

At that moment, Michael suddenly went downstairs to the basement.

The moment he appeared, he asked, “What’s wrong? Any news about the Phantom Wolf?”

Abel rubbed his temple in exhaustion. “The lip prints and fingerprints that we lifted from Sophia matched the ones left by Phantom Wolf at the crime scene. We are 100% sure that the fingerprints belong to him, but we are unable to identify who he is. We can only wait for him to appear again.”

“Subconsciously, he read the verse, “If the city generals were present, the barbarians’ horses would never have crossed the mountains.” This verse and this handwriting…

He tightly furrowed his brows in such a way that a bug could be squashed in between. “Where did you get this from?”

Michael replied, “The handwriting must seem familiar to you. Scan it first to make sure that it is really his.”

Abel quickly turned and started to scan the verse adopted from the poem ‘War’ on the notebook.

Coop’s handwriting was registered into their database. Abel then retrieved the information about the images and handwriting belonging to the Mitchell Family. In less than a minute, the system found the person in Mitchell Family whose handwriting matched the ones on the diary—and the photo of a young man appeared on the display screen.

The man in the photo was a really young man, who looked like he was less than 30 years old. He was handsome with prominent mixed-race facial features. He had deep eyes, a sharp nose, and high cheekbones with a slight curl at the corner of his lips, which seemed like a king’s dominant smile.

Upon seeing that face, Michael was stunned and a name that made his body and soul tremble escaped his lips. “Cooper Mitchell!”

Cooper Mitchell was the genius from the Mitchell Family—he began his business empire when he was only 25 years old and became the youngest family head that the Mitchell Family ever had. However, he had passed away from an accident when he was 29 years old. He was unmarried and did not have any children in his lifetime.

There weren’t many people that Michael had admired throughout his life, but Cooper was one of them.

If Michael was the nightmare for members of the Fletcher Family, who were of the same generation as him, then Cooper was Michael’s nightmare as the legendary ‘other people’s child’. In fact, he would be a terror within another nightmare!

At 3 years old, he was able to recite three hundred poems and wrote impressive calligraphy when he was 5 years old. He recited 100 digits of Pi when he was 8 years old and spoke 7 languages by the time he was 11 years old. He even performed on stage with an international pianist when he was 13 and inherited his family business at the age of 15 before obtaining double doctorate degrees at 18…

He was the strongest ‘other people’s child’ in history.

Cooper was practically Michael’s nightmare! No, not only him. The mere mention of Cooper’s name was enough to send all the children from the Four Great Families of similar ages trembling in fear.

When they were young, there was nothing scarier than to hear the phrase ‘Cooper Mitchell is here to visit!’

Whenever Cooper came to visit the Fletcher Family, the amount of homework that Michael and the children in the Fletcher Family had would increase by a few times.

Therefore, they had always hated him! Every time they saw that he was coming to visit, they wished that they could just take him down.
