After that, Cooper ‘died’, like how they had wished. He had no wife, no children, and no will after he died. It had caused his inheritance, which had a value comparable to a country’s wealth, to become intestate. The inheritance became the common property of the entire Mitchell Family and it was used in the family’s shared expenses.

The main power of the Mitchell Family then fell into the hands of another lineage, which allowed them to have direct control of the wealth. However, only the Mitchell Family would know if there was something fishy in that series of incidents.

It was also at that moment when Abel discovered the darkness of the Mitchell Family, so he chose a completely different path from his family and joined the military to avoid being involved in fights, which would lead to deaths whenever conflicts between his family members arose due to their respective benefits.

If Sophia was really Cooper’s only descendent, the large inheritance left behind by him would surely belong to her. It would be akin to taking something from right under their nose; the Mitchell Family would definitely swallow her alive!

Michael smiled. “I just want her to know that her father isn’t a rapist.”

Abel felt like he had witnessed Michael showing off his love life with his words.

Something suddenly crossed Michael’s mind, making him laugh out loud. “It was said that before Cooper was born, he had a few older brothers, but all of them had passed away. He was the only person who managed to survive until adulthood.

His father was old when he had Cooper, which made his seniority in the Mitchell Family rather high. His seniority was, in fact, similar to that of your father’s grandfather. If that’s the case, it would give me a seniority of someone similar to your grandfather.”

Abel was shocked and inwardly did the math. What the f*ck? That’s actually true!

That kind of embarrassing situation would usually happen in a large family—two children, who were playmates, could be of a similar age, but one of them could have a seniority of the other’s grandparent!

 

Once the joke was over, he returned to their serious topic. “This is going to be a little tough; it won’t be easy to find Cooper’s DNA. After all, he has been dead for over 10 years, so it’d be impossible to search for his belongings.”

“What can we do then?”

 

He cast a serious look at Michael before replying, “I’ll have to be disrespectful. I have to dig open your father-in-law’s grave and open his coffin to examine his remains.”

Michael was rendered speechless.
