Presently, several members of the Michel family were waiting outside; when Linus had been revealed as Cooper’s long-lost son, the guests at the dinner party had descended into a frenzy, and the frantic discussions that spread through the vicinity had prompted the Michel family to enquire about the situation.

What wonderful news indeed if it was true!

Cooper wiped away his tears before hurriedly calling over those who were waiting outside; he wanted to make it clear to the whole Michel family that Linus was no adopted son, but the biological son of Fass Michel!

At the dinner party, the dinner guests were whispering furiously among themselves.

“Is Linus Michel—the Vice President of the Michel family’s conglomerate—really Cooper’s son?”

“If that’s the case, no… isn’t he actually the Michels’ adopted son?”

“So, if Linus decides to return to his family, won’t he be about to lose his place in the Michel Family and Michel Group?”

“What could that possibly entail?”

“Michel Group will undergo a whole internal restructuring!”

 

The dinner guests were growing restless as they continued to speculate, but among them, Linus’ current as well as prospective collaborators wore grim expressions as they thought about how this turn of events could affect them.

If the revelation turned out to be true, then it could only wreak havoc.

 

The Yard twins were seated on the sofa while holding their wine glasses; their movements were synchronized as they whispered to each other.

Meanwhile, the Fletcher children had huddled up and were talking in low voices.

“That son of a b*tch Linus is Uncle Cooper’s son? Are you kidding me? Weren’t they just about to announce their engagement?”

Equally invested in this whole affair were the Winstons, the Edwards, and the Mitchells—the latter group, in particular, was now engaged in a heated discussion.

As wonderful as it would be if Linus really did turn out to be part of the Mitchell family, the real issue here was whether Linus would be willing to return to his roots.

Where the atmosphere had been lively before, it now died down to hushed tones and careful whispers.

No one was more anxious than Sandra Mitchell.
