My Dreamy Old Husband

Cooper listened as Linus talked about the issue regarding Dragon Eye’s management rights inside the study.

Ian’s guess had been right. From the very beginning, Cooper had already planned to give Sophia the Cethosian management rights for Dragon Eye. While Alice called the shots, Cooper was the actual ruler of the Michel Family. Despite that, Sophia never asked Cooper for the rights; she chose to fight for them herself instead.

Cooper naturally had an interest in his daughter’s career, especially when it came to Dragon Eye’s management rights.

Linus was equally invested as well. He hadn’t said it himself, but he had been keeping an eye on Sophia’s every action. This included the time where she had gotten someone to act as the fake Lucile in order to get the two Mitchell siblings to show themselves, as well as convincing Vincent to do her bidding. He even knew about how she had gotten Sarah to work with him over a smart furniture deal so that the Winstons would be threatened into giving up their claim for the managing rights, as well as how she held Ian’s nude photos over his head to make him exit the competition. He had seen all of this, and he added a little nudge here and there whenever he could.

Cooper felt relieved and proud upon hearing this; his daughter was indeed a brave and cunning person. Even though she knew that the chance of her winning was slim, she would do her best to fight for whatever she wanted. She was someone admirable; if only his son could be like her.

At the thought of his son, his heart sank. Cooper had no idea where his son actually was…

Daniel had assured Cooper that his son would appear out of the blue one day and show up on his household registry. All Cooper needed to do now was to take out the household records every day and wait for his son to come back.

Cooper didn’t quite believe Daniel’s nonsense, but he didn’t exactly distrust him either. Still, Cooper had already done all he could and was unable to find his son. Now, he couldn’t do anything else but wait.

He still felt a sense of comfort when he saw Linus, for the latter was more or less his son. He asked about his development with Sophia.

Cooper and Michael had been busy the past few days with Carmen’s auditions. With Michael out of Bayside City, it was a great opportunity for Linus.

However, Cooper watched as Linus shook his head. “I’m sorry, Fass. I don’t think there’s been any developments in our relationship. Sophia treats me like a brother wholeheartedly, or perhaps even an uncle…”

For some time now, Linus had sent Sophia to work and picked her up once the work day was over. Every day, he would eat his meals with her as well. He had been doing his best to get her to notice him, but Sophia always treated him like an uncle—she never saw him as a man.

He didn’t dare to make his thoughts known either. Sophia and Michael were so close; how could he possibly step right in between them?

Cooper sighed deeply after hearing Linus’ explanation. He patted him on the shoulder and said, “You’ve done your best, Linus…”
