My Dreamy Old Husband

Meanwhile, Mark assumed that things would be easier since they knew each other, so he slapped his thigh while exclaiming in delight, “It’s great that you know each other! Come, Sophia, Linus! Come closer! I have some good news to tell you!”

Anne watched on in trepidation while Sophia moved closer to Mark. On the other hand, Michael was explaining their circumstances to Louis. “Sophia and her brother both took on their mother’s surname.”

Linus’s name in the Cethosian language was Sophus Edwards. It was in fact derived from a joke from years ago, but it somehow clung to his memory. Although he was still officially a Michel, he already began using his Cethosian name while in Cethos. Somehow, it felt like an arrangement by fate.

Upon getting a grasp on the situation, Louis was feeling slightly abashed, as a marriage between Cooper and Anne would disrupt the familial hierarchy. Besides, he would be taking advantage of his idol if he married his granddaughter to Michael’s father-in-law, which was totally unacceptable.

Meanwhile, Sophia’s reaction was even more intense as she stared at Anne glumly. First off, you tried to court my nephew, then my brother. How dare you f*cking try to do the same to my own father?

Anne returned the glare. So Cooper is Sophia’s father! If the marriage works out, won’t I become Sophia’s stepmother?

In the meantime, Louis and Mark were both looking at Sophia in anticipation, all the while asking eagerly, “What do you make of this? Do you like this young stepmother of yours?”

Although silent all this while, Cooper was in fact mentally distressed. Turning down the offer would only humiliate Mark, but if Sophia didn’t agree to it, he would have every reason to walk away. In the meantime, Sophia gazed at Mark and Louis, who were both all smiles, seemingly anticipating the union. After that, she turned to look at Anne.

to be pretty, being born into a noble and scholarly family, Anne assumed that Cooper would be overjoyed by the fact that a forty-year-old like him would be marrying someone more than twenty years his junior, so she didn’t think he could possibly reject the offer. Now that the grandparents of both parties as well as the rest of their families had agreed to the marriage, Sophia’s objection wouldn’t do sh*t to overturn

Hanging her head low, Anne was trembling with anger while stealing a baleful glance at Sophia. This is disgusting! Why would she even pretend to be a baby when she’s almost thirty?! She’s already an old woman with her own daughter, so how dare she forbid Cooper from remarrying, especially when Cooper already agreed to this! She was on

You aren’t allowed to leave since we have some important guests! You’re all staying here, and none of you are allowed to leave!” Then, Mark added in a mysterious tone, “I have a story to tell later on.
