My Husband Is A Gary Stu novel Chapter 1205

Chapter 1206

After swallowing a mouthful of oatmeal, Sally explained, “Zion was my dad's subordinate before, but he was transferred to the military district in Baxrich. After what happened to my dad, Zion was transferred back here and even got promoted.’’

In a light tone, she added, “Zion also went to the meeting in Baykeep.”

Cooper wiped away a dollop of oatmeal at the corner of Sally's mouth. “The fact that Zion's name is on that document means that he's already on the Gaudette family's side. Are you suspecting that he has something to do with your dad's incident?”

Eyes darkening, Sally nodded. “My dad's position became vacant after he got imprisoned, so someone needs to take his place.”

“It seems like Zion was not transferred back to Jadeborough by coincidence,” remarked Cooper seriously. “Moreover, he was promoted. With the help of the Gaudette family, it won't be difficult for him to take your dad's position.”

“But they're undergoing handover now since it's the end of their term of office. A deputy commanding officer from my dad's military district is currently in charge of his job, so the higher-ups don't have the time to promote Zion.”

“But if Mr. Gaudette takes office, the first thing he'll do is to promote Zion,” Cooper added.

"That's right.”

Cooper tried to feed Sally another spoonful of oatmeal, but she shook her head as she was already full. With that, he placed the bowl on the bedside table and passed Sally a glass of water.

Taking the glass, Sally said, “I'm not so weak to the point that I can't hold anything.”

Cooper could hear the hint of complaint in her tone. Knowing that he had gone overboard the night before, he said in a gentle voice, “Rest at home today. I'll take them out.”

Right when he said that, Sally was reminded of what had happened last night. Her waist began throbbing with soreness, and she was tempted to throw the glass at Cooper's face.

“Have you asked Robert about it?” Cooper immediately changed the topic.

“Yes. However, Mr. Gaudette is the man who brought Eurydice up to be a capable and composed lady who allows no loopholes. Do you think he'd be someone easy to deal with? I'm sure Mr. Gaudette and Zion kept their deal a secret. No one likely knows about it except for the two of them.”

Suddenly remembering something, Cooper lowered his eyes and said, “Your dad worked in the government half his lifetime, but he probably never expected the adopted son he raised to join hands with an outsider and destroy his life and family.”
