Upon witnessing Mark trying to sell his godson off, Michael quickly sipped on his tea to stifle a laugh, as it was an oddity to see Cooper being regarded as a prospective partner. At that moment, Stanley scanned the room as soon as he snuck in. After risking his life to ask for confirmation from his family that he wasn’t in fact the protagonist for the day, he decided to drop by, seeing that he no longer had a target on his back.

He was curious as to how Louis managed to connect with the Yards out of the blue, all the while wondering what was the relationship between the Yards and the Fletchers, as well as the objective of their meeting.

As soon as he got in, he heard Louis say, “Why don’t you check out my granddaughter, Anne? I think your godson is a great match with her. Anne, come over here. Let Mark take a closer look at you.”

Louis presented Anne to Cooper and Mark with much enthusiasm. Before Cooper could react though, Stanley let out a cry that bordered on dismal. “What the f*ck?”

At that same moment, Michael spat out his tea, whereas Mark stared daggers at them. “We have some important guests here, so you’d better behave!”

Even then, Stanley was still staring at them in bafflement, whereas Michael tried his best to stifle his laugh while wiping the tea he spat out with some tissues. It was the first time ever that Michael lost his cool like that, but the situation was way too unexpected. Nobody could’ve predicted that.

However, he decided that he couldn’t agree more to the proposition of marrying Cooper to Anne. He figured that their marriage would be a passionate affair that would soon produce multiple children, ensuring he could have some alone time with Sophia. Other than that, Cooper could no longer pick on him for his age if he were to have a young father-in-law himself, more so when he might very well be older than the latter! The fact that the Osbornes had been regarding Cooper like one would their son ever since he entered the room now made more sense to Michael.

Meanwhile, Cooper’s lips twitched as he was at a loss of words, whereas Mark nudged his reading glasses slightly to examine Anne. Although she looks decent…
