The brothers looked at each other in horror.

Because Jordan’s identity had never been made public, and both Callum and Cade were test-tube babies, the public had always thought that Anna was single. Many intended to become the Yards’ live-in son-in-law, so there were many people that wanted to go out with her.

Maybe Cooper is trying to court Anna too? Maybe everything he did in the past was just a trick he pulled to attract her attention—by pretending to be cold and then taking the initiative to approach Anna?

If this is the case, then Cooper is indeed a master!

Callum’s expression was incomprehensible. Secretly, Cade fished his phone out and sent Sophia a text message.

‘Is your dad trying to bed my mom?’

Sophia: ‘Bed your ass!”

Cade: ‘Sophia, you might become my sister tomorrow. Watch your words.’

Sophia: ‘F*ck off!’

Cade put his phone away and took a sip of tea as he pricked his ears up to focus on the conversation between Cooper and Anna.

 

There was nothing unusual about the conversation.

“It’s just a dog, and I still have to bother you to send it back in the middle of the night. I’m really sorry. Why don’t…” Anna let out a chuckle and continued, “I treat you to a meal tomorrow.”

 

After all, Anna had always wanted to talk about the company’s business with Cooper. But, the most important reason was that she wanted to get to know him better. There was something about him that made her feel like having a meal with him would be interesting.

Unexpectedly, Cooper rejected her. “I’m sorry. I have an appointment tomorrow.”

Checking the time, Cooper found that he had been staying for almost fifteen minutes. Quickly, he got up to his feet and said, “It’s getting late. I should stop bothering you now. Goodbye.”

This was what Cooper was supposed to be like.

Now that Cooper had decided to leave, Anna didn’t try to keep him. Standing up, she sent him to the door.

The moment she opened the door, a gust of snowy wind came rushing into the house. Subconsciously, Cooper went to the front and protected Anna, who was thinly dressed, from the biting cold wind.

“There’s no need to send me out. It’s cold; you should go back.”
