Cooper nodded. “Bailey rescued Carmen during the last incident. I must go and give my thanks to him in person.”

Sophia hurriedly said, “Why don’t you invite him to our house? I’ll ask the chefs to prepare something delicious for him.”

Invite him home? No way! Definitely not! Even so, Michael did not openly express his opinions. On the other hand, Stanley hurriedly encouraged them by saying, “That’s right! Make something delicious, and make sure you make tons of it. You should make lots of that salamander dish for our guest… All the delicacies that you can imagine! We have to make it a huge affair! After all, it’s Carmen’s savior we’re talking about!”

If Bailey had not helped them that day, it would have taken a much longer time to rescue Lorelei and Carmen from the Yard Residence. Besides, guns did not discriminate. It was questionable whether Carmen and Lorelei could have walked out of there alive without his help.

Originally, Cooper wanted to visit with some gifts to show his sincerity. However, he decided he might as well invite Bailey over for dinner after giving it some thought. It was Cethosian tradition to interact with each other over a meal. Therefore, treating Bailey to a meal would seem more formal.

All of a sudden, Michael was reminded of the old-fashioned words that that fifteen-year-old ‘old man’ had uttered the other day: ‘I don’t interact with youngsters.’ That probably meant that Cooper had to go and thank him himself. Pfft. Old man.

Still, Bailey’s existence made his skin crawl. Bailey took over the family’s business at a young age and had been working hard ever since. Moreover, he already had various achievements under his belt. Geniuses like him were absolutely terrifying! Despite his youth, his level of sophistry was so deep that even an adult could no longer understand him. How could my cute and naïve Carmen be a match for the wily and conniving Bailey Adams?

Although Cooper wanted to invite Bailey over for dinner, he still felt that he shouldn’t skimp on the gift of gratitude. Hence, he brought some gifts with him to the Adams Group during his visit to thank Bailey in person.

skin was smooth, and his facial features were good. Moreover, his family background matched theirs too. He is the perfect match for Carmen. He is smart and courageous. Even though he is only 15 years old, he is already so outstanding! I’m sure he’ll be even more amazing in the future! It would be great if Carmen and Bailey got to know each other better. That way, they will be childhood friends when they grow up, and it will be easier to make a move on him. Still, everything depends on whether they are fated to be

nowadays. Carmen came from an extraordinary family. Her grandfather was a president of a company as were her father and her mother. Even her uncles and brothers were presidents of their own companies. In the future, Carmen would no doubt become a domineering female president too. In that case, 30 or 40 or 50 would still be considered too early for marriage. Besides, she is only five years old right now! What is there to be anxious about? When she gets married when she’s around 40 or 50 years old, she should find a younger husband that is around 20 or 30 years old.

Fortunately for them, their father, Jordan Edwards, had enough power and influence to clean up the troubles they caused. Jordan ultimately managed to gloss over the issues, but it undoubtedly made the higher-ups in Cethos wary of him. As a result, he didn’t even dare to make a sound in protest when the Yard Family’s private jet crashed and killed around 30 people, including his two sons. That was how serious the problem was. This time around, he had been dragged down by his two sons to the point where he
