My Dreamy Old Husband

Sophia handed the rest of the issues to her layer. She would not comment further because the lawyers would know how to get her out of the situation. Besides, Maddie was already here, and she was reporting the news in a positive light.

During the interview, a subordinate entered and whispered softly by Cooper’s ears, “Mr. Michael is here.”

Cooper’s expression turned frosty. “Ask him to get lost.”

He was extremely disappointed with Michael right now.

Sophia seemed to have noticed something when she saw Cooper’s cold and distant expression. She knew instinctively that Michael had arrived.

Although she wanted to see Michael, she just didn’t know how to face him right now.

Irene deserved to die; even if I hadn’t taken the blame for Sean, and even if Sean hadn’t killed Irene, I would have killed her if I had been holding the knife.

If she hadn’t been murdered, Irene would have used her status as the descendent of a late hero to free herself from any accusations to continue with her troubled ways. The Fletcher Family had been caught in a tight spot when it came to Irene. She exhausted the last bit of love and patience from the Fletchers by flaunting her influence. I suppose I’ve acted on behalf of God by removing the disaster from the hands of the Fletchers.

If she had failed this time, Irene would have had a second attempt. I wouldn’t want to wake up one day, only to again find myself tied to a pole while somebody splashed gasoline on me.

Nevertheless, Irene was Michael’s first love after all. Besides, she was the apple of the Fletchers’ eye and the descendent of Old Master Fletcher’s favorite pupil. Hence, I still feel bad for her murder, and so I just need some time alone.

I suppose it’s best to not see him for now.

Michael and Joel waited for almost the whole day at the entrance, but Cooper refused to let them in. Maddie finally walked out of the hospital in the afternoon, and she spoke to Michael. “Taylor, I interviewed Sophia just now. She is fine, and she is doing well currently. Don’t worry; I will send over the interview video after I’ve edited it at home.” She paused. “I will definitely write a positive report. I would absolutely not deviate from the truth!”

Maddie was well aware of Irene’s nature. In the past, she would stir up trouble in Maddie’s department every other day, and so everyone in the department was afraid of Irene. Hence, Maddie was forced to take two military dogs with her to work to get Irene to stop. However, Maddie did not expect this to blow up in such proportions.
