My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 737

Linus was shocked, but he remained silent as he nodded.

Cooper added, “Contact the governments who phoned earlier asking to purchase the cure… Tell them that we will supply the cure free of charge. Besides, release the composition and formula of the cure to the public free of charge. Get the pharmaceutical factories to work over time and synthesize as many cures as possible to send them out to the main hospitals in large cities, where the infection has spread the worst.”

Cooper did not run a charity; in fact, the cure developed by his medical team shouldn’t be given out for free. This was his bargaining chip, which he wanted to use to take advantage of the horrible situation in exchange for the mining rights from governments of different countries. I was waiting for Africa to fall into chaos because once there was chaos, an arms dealer, like myself, would benefit from the situation the most.

The life and death of others had nothing to do with me! However, right now, I can’t help but look at everything differently.

He turned to look at Sophia, who was lying in bed, but his eyes were brimming with tears, his gaze unfocused.

She was still deep in her coma, and it seemed as if she would never open her eyes again.

“Maybe God would witness this and allow my daughter to return to me.”

While staring at his flesh and blood going through so much pain, Cooper started crying again. For the past twenty years, he had never shed a single tear ever since Annabel’s death.

However, in the last two days, he finally understood that the suffering he had to endure now was the result of the accumulation of his ruthlessness over the last two decades. More than twenty years’ worth of tears now flowed freely in the past two days.

Linus could sense Cooper’s desperation, and so he left in silence.

After a while, news got out that a large number of unmanned aerial vehicles, which were loaded with the cures, flew off to large cities all over the world. The cure’s formula was sent to every country’s medical institutions too. Hence, any medical institutions had access to the Michel Group to obtain the cure.

The gates opened, and the infected people, who were begging for help outside of the walls, were sent into hospital rooms. Everybody was excited, and some were even crying tears of joy. Those who sought help received the cure and the necessary health care from the Michel Group free of charge.

The news spread throughout the entire Africa within a day. The land, which had once fallen into despair in the flames of war, appeared as if it had been reborned—there was good news everywhere.

Nicole stood behind Cooper. Sensing the despair and regret emitting from the man’s aura, she couldn’t help but feel down as well.

However, Cooper broke the silence suddenly. “Miss Walker.”

Nicole was stunned into silence because this was the first time Cooper spoke to her in the last two days. She responded hastily, “Yes, Mr. Mitchell.”

She already knew that he was the person in charge behind Michel Group, Fass Michel, but she also knew that his name was Cooper Mitchell. Therefore, she addressed him as ‘Mr. Mitchell’.

However, Cooper did not correct her; instead, he paused for a long time before saying, “Thank you very much.”

Nicole was at a loss for words now. She finally had a chance to speak with him after waiting for more than a decade. Nevertheless, the heavy and gloomy atmosphere crushed her joy and excitement.

Cooper continued, “Thank you for making sure that we were united as father and daughter.”

Nicole smiled bitterly while shaking her head.

She was perplexed. It’s too late after all. Everything seems to be fated.

It was night time soon.

Sophia had been in a coma for two days, and she would never regain consciousness again if she didn’t wake up now.

Cooper hadn’t had anything to eat nor drink the entire day. He had been gazing at Sophia while he sat beside her bed.

This is my daughter!

If I had been able to raise her since birth, she would have been enjoying life as a youthful and beautiful woman now. She would have been healthy and happy. In fact, with her intelligence, I’m sure she must be as talented as Linus. However, right now, she’s lying in bed while balancing at the brink of death.

Cooper stared at Sophia’s face, and the longer he did that, the prettier he found her to be. Anna gave birth to this daughter of mine!

She gave birth to her in despair, and I’m sure she must have hoped that we would be reunited as father and daughter one day. Who would have expected our first official reunion to be when she was on the brink of death?

She has suffered so much throughout her life, and so I must keep her company while she goes through the last part of the journey.

Cooper sat closest to Sophia, and he was speaking to her in a quiet voice. Perhaps she’s able to hear my voice right now.

She had been searching for me for so many years, and so I’m sure she must have been looking forward to meeting me. I need to let her know that I, her father, am just by her side. In that case, she might move on to the afterlife while feeling at ease.
