My Husband Is a Gary Stu

Chapter 1136

When Cooper had helped Sally wash her hair and wrap a towel around it, he briefly rinsed them both before taking out the hairdryer in the cabinet beneath the sink and blowing dry her hair.

Standing in front of the sink, Sally could see the tall and muscular man behind her.

He wasn't wearing glasses, and his drooping eyelashes concealed his eyes. His forbidding features eased under the lights, giving him an elegant and graceful air that made him seem like easy prey.

However, all who had contact with him knew that his appearance was deceiving.

In truth, he was more ruthless than anyone else.

When he lifted his head, Sally happened to glimpse a glimmer of light in his eyes despite the indifferent look in them.

Seeing that she was spacing out while staring at the mirror, Cooper instinctively understood the reason.

He unplugged the hairdryer before snagging a comb and running it through her long hair. In a casual manner, he questioned, “Why did you take an interest in me? Which part of me resembles Ethan?”

Turning, Sally brushed her finger across his eyebrows. “The eyes. Both your eyes are beautiful.”

“No wonder you didn't bother when I suggested finding someone and having him undergo plastic surgery to look just like Ethan back then.” Even if that person ended up looking no different from the man she loves, his eyes would never be the same.

Sally regarded him curiously. “Aren't you angry to hear that?”

“Why would I be? You love someone else, and so do I,” Cooper replied mildly, pulling her hand down.

They could only continue being together because they had the same goal and decided to collaborate.

It had nothing to do with love.

A strange feeling welled within Sally as she gazed at the man's cold eyes. It took tremendous effort on her part before she succeeded in suppressing it.

She went to the adjacent room after changing, and Lucian came over to sleep with Cooper.

Amanda had played two rounds of the escape room game with Lucian earlier, so she was still too excited to sleep. Climbing into bed, she inched close to Sally and stared at her with wide eyes.

“Aunt Sally, why aren't you sleeping with Uncle Cooper?”

Tucking the covers over her, Sally explained evenly, “While there are surveillance cameras in the hotel, your uncle is still worried about your safety.”

Amanda hummed in acknowledgment. “Can I hug you to sleep, Aunt Sally?”

She usually slept with a plush toy in her arms, but she forgot to bring her favorite plush toy during the trip to Baxrich this time.

“Sure.” Gathering Amanda in her arms, Sally murmured, “Good night.”

Amanda felt much more relaxed in her embrace. A while later, she inquired in a mere whisper, “Aunt Sally, are my mommy and daddy... never coming back again?”

“Your mommy is recuperating abroad. She'll be back when she recovers,” Sally coaxed softly.
