Linus was the child all along!

So, that was why he shared the same birthday with Sophia!

It explained why, from the very moment Cooper had laid eyes on the child, he had the strangest feeling that the child was different from others, and he felt compelled to adopt the child.

It also made sense as to why he had not been able to find anything on his son; he had given orders to wipe out everything that had even been remotely connected to Linus, thus effectively barring his own efforts to locate his son.

It turned out that Linus Michel was his son after all!

By the end of the video, Cooper’s hand was shaking so badly that the phone slipped and clattered to the floor.

Sophia hurriedly picked up the fallen phone and passed it back to Cooper. “What’s the matter, Dad?” she asked curiously.

However, Cooper stumbled backward, and if Justin had not reached out in time to steady him, he would have fallen over.

“Hahaha—”

Cooper burst into laughter before taking several steps back, then broke down into heaving sobs.

 

“My son, my son, my son…” he wailed.

He would never have known that he had children at all if Sophia hadn’t turned up two years ago.

 

Up to a year ago, he wouldn’t have even known that he had another child other than Sophia if Michael had never brought it up.

It was only today when the revelation came upon him that the person he had been taking care of these past 20 years—the person whom he’d thought of as his ‘younger brother’—was in fact his biological son all along!

What a complete twist of fate!

Everyone was shocked to see Cooper as anguished as he was now, and they began wondering if something had happened to his son.

Linus had rushed over at the first instance, thinking that Cooper had found out what he’d done.

He knew he had let him down again.

However, Cooper abruptly began pushing through the crowd surrounding him, and when he saw Linus by the sidelines, he reached out to grab hold of him. Linus had never seen this look on him before; when he tried to speak, he was so overwhelmed that he stammered.

“Linus…”

Linus stared at him blankly, unsure as to how he should respond.
