While Christine was left baffled by that family, Tawny’s father received a call from a prestigious elderly from the Bishop Family. He had prestige because he held a public office position in their county. Despite it being a small role, to them, he was equivalent to a high-ranking official to whom they had to bow down.

Without warning, the small-time public officer started to shout over the phone. “What on earth did you guys do in Bayside City? The county magistrate came to ask me personally today. He said you’ve offended a high-ranking official. You’re all done for!”

After that, several more phone calls came.

“Your son’s admittance into the top class was nullified. There’s not enough space. We’ve reached the maximum quota.”

“Mr. Bishop, can you find some time to move out of the public housing? The authorities found a house under your name. You don’t qualify to live in public housing anymore!”

“I’m sorry to inform you, Mr. Evans, but your son’s performance at work is very poor, so the company has fired him.”

It was at that moment that the Bishops and the Evans felt afraid. The series of events was enough to make them see their world crumble before their eyes. One after the other, they were urging Christine to call Maddie and have her remedy the situation.

Upon returning to The Imperial, Cooper was still in a sullen mood. “That’s enough, Dad. Don’t brood over this. Those people don’t know much about the world. They don’t understand how it works!” Sophia appeased.

Once she was done with Cooper, she was busy trying to placate Linus. She was worried that they might act rashly. At this crucial point when Jordan was watching over them like a hawk, they could not afford a slip-up.

If it were up to Cooper, he would have made mincemeat out of the Bishops by now.

When Michael came to know about the situation, he quickly rushed home from his filming site. The matter was settled; Joel was going to bring some gifts over to apologize to Cooper the next day.

Cooper also suppressed his anger for the sake of Michael and Joel. Since it was not a big issue, he did not want to complicate things further.

Both Joel and Maddie also called to apologize; Cooper accepted it and the problem was resolved. After all, Joel was the head of the Fletcher Family now.

Even though Cooper lost his temper over petty things sometimes, most of the time, he was quite magnanimous.
