Having eaten another spicy chicken strip, Sophia burped. “Apart from Phantom Wolf, what else was I ever afraid of?” She had already seen the entire guest list for Linus’ banquet. Apart from Michael’s ex, Irene Weber, another one of Michael’s exes would also be there.

Before Michael wedded Sophia, he was in two relationships. The first person was Irene, and the second person… was someone whom Sophia had never seen in person before, but she was certain that she would meet her at the banquet. Speaking of that, Sophia was slightly excited. After eating another spicy strip, she quickly went to wash her face and put on a facial mask. The day before the banquet, knowing that Michael was coming home, Sophia took a shower in advance so that Michael would see her best side.

After Michael came home, Stanley and Sean also showed up saying that since they were attending Linus’ banquet tomorrow, they decided to come and visit them today. Even though Michael had been busy and was rarely home, he would nonetheless check the surveillance system installed in the house. Seeing how Sophia stayed home the entire time playing video games, working, studying, and working out, he felt bad for her. As soon as I catch Phantom Wolf, Sophia will be able to go out and get some fresh air!

The moment Stanley came through the door, he began to roast Sophia, “Uncle Michael, look at Eddie—she’s turning into a slob!”

Of course, Michael could not be bothered by that comment. Holding Sophia’s hand, Michael and Sophia went into their room and did not come out for a long, long time.

After placing his bag on the floor, Stanley sneaked into the wine cellar to drink some wine while Sean went to Villa No. 2 to check on Linus and the banquet preparations. After school, Nathan came home with Nicholas just in time for dinner. Meanwhile, Michael came out of his room after having sex and showering.

After dinner, Michael secretively asked Nathan to go into his study. Upon entering, Michael locked the door. Now that it was just the two of them, Nathan immediately turned from an adorable boy into an unfriendly and rebellious teenager—even his pure and naïve voice turned deep and nonchalant.

At this point, he gave Michael a cold glance and said, “Is there anything? Get on with it; I have some school work to finish tonight.”

Michael proceeded to take out a picture of a gorgeous man of mixed race; that person looked exceptionally fine and had a unique temperament. “Do you recognize him? Have you seen him before?”

Giving him another nonchalant glance before looking away, Nathan responded, “I don’t; never saw him before.”

 

Watching Nathan lie through his teeth, Michael held in his urge to slap him. Before this, the poor Nathan did not have a mother, so Michael could not get himself to hit him. Now that Nathan had both Celine and Sophia, Michael reckoned that he would not feel as bad for hitting him.
