If so, had Michael’s sudden promise to allow her to have contact with Woody merely been a ruse to use her as a tool to achieve Michael’s own goals?

Her heart clenched; she didn’t want to see Michael involve Woody in his idea…

Looking at Sophia’s worried expression, Abel made her reassured by saying, “You don’t have to be so nervous. Boss just wants to find Cooper and ask him to verify something very important.”

Is that so? Sophia was still suspicious, but she took a glove from Abel’s toolbox to help.

She remembered Cooper’s manuscripts that she had just read, and there should be a fingerprint on it. So, she quickly took it out and turned a few pages. Sure enough, there was a faint fingerprint in the corner of the page. It must have been accidentally smudged there with his inky finger, but then carefully hidden away by Woody.

Seeing the fingerprint, Abel’s expression grew concerned and he carefully kept the manuscript away.

He had come on this day as Nathan and Sophia’s bodyguard, allowing him to safely and boldly conduct his search. Aside from the fingerprint, he had hoped to find other clues, so he continued to rummage through the bookshelf.

Sophia was extremely worried, so she asked, “Is Cooper really not dead? If he didn’t die, then where is he now? What does Taylor want to ask him? Does it have anything to do with Old Master Mitchell?”

As Abel continued his search, he replied, “Cooper couldn’t have died. Boss wants to ask him about certain matters, but it has nothing to do with Woody.”

Sophia was still uneasy, afraid that Cooper had done something to have wronged Michael, so the latter was seeking revenge, and she was worried that it would affect Woody in the future.

 

While carefully opening Cooper’s book, Abel suddenly stopped and his gaze seemed to be fixed on something. Then, he turned around slowly toward the small figure not far behind him.

Nathan had woken up for some time, standing in front of Cooper’s desk, his hair messy from sleep. Raising his head, he looked at the ugly man in front of him, his eyes full of horror and curiosity.

 

Abel was shocked. His gaze swept across Nathan’s body, but after a second, he forced his eyes away from his own son.
