He had used up all his luck when his daughter appeared out of nowhere so he bet that finding his son would be impossible. Besides, Linus and Annabel didn’t look the same at all and he was so much more different compared to her.

Back then when he inadvertently saw him on the television, where he was invited by the television station to solve a ternary problem on the spot, he watched the cruellest farce in the world on the screen. A genius was made fun of on the scene and was even watched as if he was a circus monkey.

Since that was a live video, Cooper rushed to the television station immediately and bought him from his parents with a few million.

That poor child was sold countless times before this. After Cooper brought him back, he found him a pair of adoptive parents and gave him an identity as well as a perfect family. Gratefully, Linus didn’t let him down and grew up to be a perfect successor.

He invested all his love and effort in Linus so even if his son returned, he would surely protect Linus. In his eyes, a flawless successor that he nurtured personally was as important as his long lost son.

Patting Linus’ shoulder, Cooper said earnestly, “If Sophia and her brother return to the Michel Family, your status will surely be affected. Therefore, I hope that you’ll marry Sophia.”

Linus was shocked. “Fass, this is…”

Cooper knitted his eyebrows. “Are you forsaking my daughter for having a past marriage and a child from her preceding marriage? ”

Linus immediately replied, “Of course not. But Sophia and Michael—”

“Don’t mention his name!”

 

Speaking of Michael, Cooper’s eyes were filled with disappointment. In the past, he once thought that Michael could bring Sophia happiness but he was wrong. Michael was a troublemaker and he would only bring trouble to his two darlings.

He then patted Linus’ shoulder again and said solemnly, “To me, you and Sophia make the perfect couple. You’re the best for her and if you marry her, your status in the family can be stabilized and no one will threaten it anymore.”

 

Linus was indeed tempted. Since young, he worked hard and yearned to be acknowledged by Cooper and the Michel Family and for that, he worked a hundred times harder than anyone else.

He wanted to be a real Michel whom everyone acknowledged.

He also wanted to be with Sophia and protect her forever so she wouldn’t be hurt at all!
