My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 59

Sophia was perplexed, but Nathan seemed to be scared of this man, for he kept hiding behind her without speaking.

Joel stretched out his hand to pat Nathan’s head, asking, “I heard that you went picking some watermelons in the vegetable farm just now?”

Nathan didn’t answer Joel though, for he seemed to be truly terrified of the latter. Despite his commanding presence at home, he looked like a dog with its tail between its legs in front of Joel on this day.

Joel was indeed very intimidating, for all ladies in the military training camp probably admired and feared him at the same time.

They wanted to get noticed by the person who was both the Fletcher Family’s eldest son and the youngest Senior Colonel of Cethos; at the same time, however, they were afraid of the suffocating and intimidating aura that emanated from him. Only those who had steeled themselves in actual battlefields would have such an imposing manner.

Sophia quickly shielded Nathan with her body as she eased the tension in the air by saying, “Hello, General. This kid is a little shy, and he doesn’t like to speak.”

Joel stopped embarrassing Nathan further; he slowly rose to his feet, standing before her and looking like an immeasurably high mountain with his height of 190 centimeters. Then, as a probing look flickered in his eyes, Sophia felt like she was treading on thin ice. She was so frightened that her back was covered in sweat.

Joel looked her up and down with a stern face before he suddenly broke into a smile. “You must be Sophia, right? I’m Michael’s cousin, Joel.”

Oh my god, so Michael really is a direct descendant of the Fletcher Family! I never expected him to come from such an influential background as he seems so inconspicuous and unassuming. Besides, why would Joel know my name?

Why is Nate so terrified of him? Since Michael is a Fletcher, why couldn’t his name be found among the Fletchers? Things are so complicated in an influential family! Sophia thought to herself.

 

Having decided to speak less, she answered reverently, “I’m Sophia Edwards, General.”

Joel nodded as he said in a relaxed tone, “I never expected Michael to marry earlier than I do. It’s too bad that he didn’t tell me about his wedding, or I would have given you two a great present.”

Sophia complained in her mind, There wasn’t a f*cking wedding at all, for we merely registered for marriage!

She answered simple-mindedly, “I’ll make sure to tell you next time!”

Joel was dumbstruck for a moment before he laughed. “You two should go back quickly, for the military training will start officially in an hour. We’re a family, so let me know if you have any difficulties.”
