My Dreamy Old Husband

“Mom wants to recuperate in Bayside City for a while, but the Yard Family wants to amend the family tree and shift the ancestral grave, so there are quite a number of things to be done. We thought we’d stay around and help out since Mom isn’t emotionally stable, so we might not be returning so soon,” Callum replied. He spoke in a respectful and meticulous manner, as if he was reporting to his supervisor; there wasn’t a hint of intimacy in his tone.

To the boys, Jordan was practically a stranger. Apart from the contribution of his sperm, he had never given them anything more. During the toughest periods of their lives when they were younger, Jordan would disappear and leave them with their mother. Furthermore, Jordan had other women and children outside that often bullied them. Callum lowered his gaze after answering to Jordan to conceal any hint of distaste in his eyes.

Jordan seemed a little disappointed by Callum’s reply. “We still need you boys to handle the matters over at Ronney City.”

“I’ve dealt with everything before I left. I left Henry and Ryan in charge of the fashion week, and there haven’t been any other large events happening recently. We can handle the rest of it remotely, so you don’t have to worry about it, Dad,” Callum uttered. It seemed like Jordan had begun to grow suspicious of Anna and the twins recently, and they decided that they’d simply leave him behind and let him continue being suspicious if that were the case. But Jordan didn’t notice anything then, as he simply nodded before he went up to rest in another guest room.

The doctor had a long discussion with Jordan before they both left. Jordan didn’t return after that, and no one knew when he’d ever reappear again. They didn’t look forward to his visits, anyway.

The roses were from her grandfather, and the food was her way of showing her appreciation to them for allowing her to play with the dogs.

Carmen was shocked to see Anna with an IV drip the moment she stepped into the house. “Are you sick, Miss Beautiful?”

Villa No. 2 after going home, as Cooper’s office was located there. Cooper and Linus would often have their meetings and do their work there before they would return to Sophia’s to eat and rest. When Sophia went in, Cooper was having an online conference call with people from the Michel Group. She exchanged glances with Linus outside the meeting room, and he threw her a warning stare while gesturing for her not to enter the room. She didn’t push the door open, but instead stood outside and listened to the contents of discussion between Cooper and an
