When he turned, he expectedly saw a pair of blue eyes that were in the color of a thousand-year-old lake, leaving him in shock.

Save for the difference in the color of that person’s irises, the one who stood in front of him resembled Cooper! Based on his own memory, that was how Cooper looked!

The Old Master looked equally shocked. Where did they find such a lookalike? He looks so lifelike!

Sean was evidently thrilled. “Old Master, this is Cooper! Cooper’s not dead and has finally returned!”

Cooper is still alive! Members of the Mitchell Family were taken aback as they turned to see who the man was.

All eyes were on Cooper as he took a swift stride toward Woody. Cooper was choked up in tears as he digested the sight of an aged person’s body. Then, without saying anything, he fell to his knees in front of the old man.

“Father!”

Cooper’s body shook as he shouted that word.

He now realized how ignorant and defiant he was in the past—he had been extremely cruel to have left Woody on his own…

Woody beamed when he saw Cooper. “Coop, you’re back!”

 

Cooper took his father’s dry, bony hand in his and blurted, “I’m back. I’m finally home.”

He looked over at Mark Fletcher and was choked up in tears before he added, “I’m back, Godfather.”

 

It is really Cooper! He is now here!

Cooper was actually still alive! In all honesty, Mark wanted to give him two slaps across his face to teach him a lesson—he never knew how much Woody and Sophia yearned to see him all those years!
