My Dreamy Old Husband

There was no business opportunity between Cooper and the Ronney Group, so they had never crossed paths. Besides, Cooper rarely showed up in public and there was nowhere he could encounter Anna.

Even after knowing Anna’s existence and her identity as Annabel, Cooper had no intention of disturbing her nor prying into her private life.

However, never did he imagine the sufferings that his Anna had been through all these years.

It seemed as if Cooper was pondering but in fact, he was crying deep down.

His dear Anna should not be living a life like this.

Seeing Cooper contemplating without making his stance known, Anna was determined that she would not give up on this potential ally. He was the only help that she could currently think of. If she could successfully persuade Cooper, she and her sons would soon be free.

That was the real reason she came to Cethos this time.

“Mr. Mitchell, if you’re doubtful of Jordan and I ganging up against you, please be assured. There is a death feud between him and I.”

With that, she presented her bargain, “Of course; I would not ask you to help me for nothing. If we manage to bring Jordan down, I promise that the Ronney Group will retreat from the Cethos market forever.”

However, Cooper still remained silent as he concentrated on brewing tea. He looked extremely calm and it seemed like no one would be able to read his mind.

Understanding that he needed time to contemplate, Anna stopped speaking.

And so, the two of them sipped their tea quietly.
