Her words had successfully caught everyone’s attention, and heads immediately spun around to stare at Sandra. She was overjoyed to have all the attention on her, and she delightedly began to expose the ‘true colors’ of Cooper’s son. “Cooper’s only son, Linus, is a gay man. He has been dating men for a while now—how disgusting, perverted and dirty of him! He is an embarrassment to our ancestors, and we’d have to consider if our ancestors would ever allow such behavior!”

In response to her words, the crowd began to buzz with excitement once again as they all turned to look at Linus, who stood beside Cooper. They couldn’t believe that the clean, well-groomed man they saw was gay! Some of the people wore expressions of shock on their faces; some glanced at him understandingly; some looked at him pitifully while others simply seemed confused… Cooper hadn’t remarried, and he was unlikely to have any other children. Now, he only had a son and a daughter; his daughter was married and had already given birth to a little girl named Carmen, but Carmen probably shared her surname with the Fletchers. In that case, Linus was Cooper’s only son, yet he was gay! In accordance with Cethos’ traditional beliefs, Cooper’s bloodline had practically come to an end in such a situation.

“Dad.” Linus stood behind Cooper, and his head lowered with guilt. Linus never once thought that this was his fault, but he couldn’t help blaming himself now that his sexual preferences had caused trouble for Cooper. Linus believed that the power of love was sufficient to break through all barriers—he didn’t care if the other person was male or female as long as he liked the person. He would consider getting married and having children if he ever found a woman he liked, but he didn’t wish to get married or have children just yet. In fact, he felt content with everything he had in life right now; Linus had a younger sister and little Carmen to take care of, so he had no desire to start his own family yet. He didn’t want to force himself into anything, but he also didn’t want to make Cooper sad. Dad probably thinks that there is no one to continue his bloodline anymore…

To his surprise, Cooper simply patted him on the shoulder. “I’ll always be proud of you, my son.” Linus broke into a grin right then as he felt his insides bursting with joy. Indeed, Cooper was always supportive of him.

Right then, Cooper’s footsteps came to a halt as he glanced at Sophia, Linus, Michael and all of his other supporters before he spoke. “As long as I have you guys with me, I’m sure my name will be passed down. Regardless of whether you guys are my inheritors, I will try my best to nurture and support all of you. You guys have to work hard—the Mitchell Family’s future is going to depend on all of you!”

with international members based outside of Cethos. They were a good mix of many cultures; Cethosian values and beliefs were no longer the main drive of the whole family. Cooper’s bloodline wasn’t about to end, and the Mitchell Family didn’t have a lack of inheritors! Some individuals believed in an outdated, feudal system and hoped to stick to it, but others quickly brushed it aside as they didn’t believe in it. Cooper was one of the ones who got rid of such outdated beliefs. He never forced Linus and Sophia to give birth to males; he never insisted that their children would have to take his surname. They could give birth to kids as they wished, and they could get married if they wanted to—it was all up to them. Although Carmen didn’t take Cooper’s surname, he still considered her as part of the Mitchell Family’s new generation. Therefore, he did have inheritors and a granddaughter. How could they claim that

The sudden slap left Sandra dumbfounded, but Dimon continued to
