My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 359

After Sophia finished her meal, she brought a torchlight with her to pick up seashells. The night sky and the sea were completely dark, and as she walked on the seashore barefooted, she felt really relaxed. The breeze blew so strongly, her maxi dress flew like a fluttering butterfly. Michael watched the little girl running around in a distance and it warmed his heart.

All of a sudden, Daniel asked, “Is she really Cooper’s daughter?”

Michael continued to look at Sophia and didn’t say anything in reply, as if he tacitly agreed.

A look of awe instantly appeared in Daniel’s gaze but he quickly started to look worried. If Cooper found out that his daughter was bought for 10 million and sold for 80,000, his reputation in Bayside City would completely be ruined.

Harry used to admire Bear Grylls because after all, the guy had fought a bear before. However, at that moment, the person he admired the most was Michael. He couldn’t believe that Michael would dare to sleep with Cooper’s daughter. Isn’t he afraid that Cooper would suddenly appear from nowhere and kill him?

However, Michael was extremely calm. “It’s too late now. What can he do?” After hearing this, the other two were rendered speechless.

These two were also from the generation when Cooper poisoned people’s minds so they hated Cooper ever since they were young. He had tried to ruin his peers! The three of them fell into a moment of silence. If Michael continued his investigation and really found Cooper one day, the lives of the people in Bayside City would definitely change. The existing power would be redistributed and there might even be a change in politics.

At that time, Bayside City was still under the rule of the Four Great Families. The Edwards family was the wealthiest family in the city, the Mitchell family’s electronics business was on a global scale, the Fletcher family held military power, and the Winston family was powerful in military, politics and business. However, among the four, the Mitchell family was the weakest.

Ever since Cooper passed away, the Mitchell family business had been gradually going downhill, because having a genius like Cooper in their family was already a miracle. Without Cooper, the Mitchell family’s decline was inevitable.

Furthermore, there were a few new families that were rising in power so the Mitchell family’s position as one of the Four Great Families was in danger. Therefore, the Mitchell family urgently needed the two billion. In fact, they didn’t just need two billion, but ten times more than that!

During their moment of silence, the seafood on the grill crackled and Hale grilled the seafood conscientiously. Although he had no right to interrupt in the conversation of his boss, at that instant, he couldn’t help but speak up.

“Boss, I think you should tell the lady boss about Cooper. After all, she’s his daughter. With her help, it might be easier to find him.”

The three of them immediately turned to look at Hale. Even though Hale was nervous, he continued, “I noticed that the lady boss is acting more and more like her father. Maybe we can have a breakthrough from her.”

Hale’s words reminded Michael that their search for Cooper was like a chicken with its head cut off. They hadn’t got a clue even after searching for so long. If they started their search from Sophia, they could probably find something, but Michael had his own concerns.

The greater expectation, the greater the disappointment. If he let Sophia know that she might have an awesome father right now but found out that he was dead in the end, how would she feel? At that moment, Sophia had found many seashells, fish and small shrimps, and she was running back into the house happily to keep them in a safe place.

She had been living in Woody’s house for the past two days. Although she was a little embarrassed, Woody was very welcoming and insisted on letting her stay so she had no choice but to stay. Unexpectedly, she saw Woody, who was wearing pajamas, sitting in the living room watching television as soon as she entered the house.
