My Dreamy Old Husband
Chapter 1139

Sophia did not want to stay at the Ronney Group for another moment. Thus, she and Linus rusheddownstairs and got into the car. The moment she entered the car, Callum made an overseas call to“express his sympathy’. “I heard that you met my younger brothers for a business discussion but thetalks ended on a sour note. Moreover, both parties were at odds with each other. Allow me toextend my apologies on their behalf; my younger brothers can be a little unruly!

It's all because my mother spoiled them rotten. That's why they developed such a fearlesstemperament. If you wish to work with them, you'll have to be very tolerant of their behavior... Theycan be considered cruel; they will do anything to get what they want. They are sloppy and havepoor taste and they love fooling around with women. Even so, they are good kids. Besides, they areonly 20 years old. Being so much older than them, you should be more loving—pfft! Hahaha... Ican't take it anymore!”

It looks like Callum knew that things would turn out this way. He probably guessed that I would bereluctant to act as their tool and do their bidding obediently. Today's incident was within hisexpectations! He planned this! Sophia's expression was murderous; her hatred was so strong that itmade her teeth tingle. Dealing with Ryan and Henry will only benefit Callum, but I won't be able tostomach this disgrace if I left them alone.

Before she could answer, Linus snatched the phone out of her hands. He had been silent sincewalking out of the meeting room. When he spoke at this moment, he was eerily calm—so calm thatit made the back of one’s head tingle. “I'll give you that batch of diamonds that you wanted. Sendsomebody over to Africa to sign the contract. I won't wait; if you miss the chance, it's gone. Thosediamonds are more than enough to buy two worthless lives from the Yard Family!"

He angrily hung up after saying that. Despite knowing that he was being tricked into doing whatthey wanted, he had no other choice. I must get rid of those brothers! Even if they are my own half-brothers!

After the call ended, the car was silent for quite a while. Then, he slowly calmed down and keptSophia's phone away in her bag. Sophia studied him; her eyes seemed to scan his expression"What's wrong?” he asked. His dark expression suddenly turned into a smile.

In response, she hugged him out of the blue. Rubbing her face against his chest, she exclaimed,“You're the best, Linus!”

Upon hearing that, his heart melted with joy. This is the ultimate reward for a siscon! He rubbed herhair and said, “You're my sister. As your brother, it's a given for me to protect you.”

She smiled widely, and her eyes turned into crescents. After that, she suddenly noticed that his handwas red. “Oh, my God! Linus, when did you get this burn?!” It's practically blistering! I must haveaccidentally burned him when I overturned the tea tray just now.

While Linus didn't seem to think much of it, Sophia was extremely worried. She quickly took out theemergency medical kit in the car. There was a cooling spray in it. Thus, she sprayed his wound whileblowing on it lightly. “Does it hurt?”

He could feel his wound stinging. However, the back of his hand felt cool when she blew on hiswound, and it didn't hurt one bit. Nothing hurts with her around.

When they arrived home, Michael and Cooper were already aware of the incident. Cooper wasextremely furious, as was Michael. It seemed like the twins would not survive for long. Still, Cooperhesitated slightly—those twins were still Anna's sons, after all

On the other hand, Michael did not hesitate at all. I'm going to kill them! It won't end unless they'redead! Besides, it's not like they're my half-brothers!

Still, everybody was considerably well-known. It would be too brazen of them to murder somebodyin Bayside City just like that. Even if they were involved in the underworld, they still had to be waryof the law. Moreover, Michael was the grandson of Mark Fletcher. He did not wish to cause troublefor the Fletchers or Mark.

Besides, Anna had just donated some cultural relics to the country. She even appeared on “FocalPoint’ and was currently the talk of the town. If her two sons, who just arrived in Cethos not longago, died suddenly and without justifiable reasons, it would cause a commotion. Therefore, gettingrid of Henry and Ryan would need some time.

Although Cooper felt slightly hesitant, he was forced to face reality in the end. They might be Anna'schildren, but they're also Jordan's sons. There's no reason for me to go easy on them! Still, we can'ttake their lives directly. At the very least, they cannot die in Bayside City or anywhere else

within Cethos!

It had been two days since Ryan and Henry were admitted into the hospital. One had his handbroken while the other suffered burns on his thigh. They were screaming and crying when they werefirst brought in.

“Mom, it hurts so much! How dare that b*tch dare to hurt me!” Ryan was in so much pain that hisface was twisted into a grimace. His handsome features were distorted badly, but his expression wascold as he video-called Anna.

In the video call, Anna looked extremely concerned. “Don't worry, Henry. You'll be fine after restingin the hospital for two days. I'm going to Cethos in a few days to visit you. How dare they harm mysons. How insolent of them!”

She comforted her sons for a bit before ending the video call. When she turned back, she foundJordan standing behind her. She did not know how long he had been there. Thus, she felt shocked.Even so, her expression remained unchanged—it was still the same concerned expression as before.“Henry and Ryan ran into a little trouble in Cethos. They were injured by somebody.”

Naturally, Jordan was aware of the incident. However, he keenly felt that something fishy was goingon. Why were Cooper's children the ones who harmed Henry and Ryan? Although it seemed like acoincidence, he couldn't help feeling that something wasn't quite right.

When the mother and son trio first left for Cethos to expand the Ronney Group's business, henoticed something strange. The people they brought along with them were not his men but theirown trusted subordinates. Their actions made him vigilant toward them. The three of them haveulterior motives! They plan to monopolize and control the Cethosian market once they integratethemselves!

Hence, he sent his other pair of sons to Cethos to replace them. Callum and Cade were too old; theywere no longer compliant. However, Ryan and Henry were very obedient to him. He felt reassuredwith them there. Therefore, he suggested having Ryan and Henry take over the Cethosian market.Anna had agreed easily and immediately left the country. But... he couldn't help feeling as if he hadfallen for their trap instead.

As Anna looked very worried, he comfortingly said, “They're already adults. Don’t worry too much.”Still, he was afraid that Ryan and Henry would not be able to face Cooper by themselves. So, hedecided to ask Lucy and lan to lend them a hand. Ryan and Henry might not be part of the EdwardsFamily, but they're still my sons.

In response, Anna nodded. Her expression was full of concern, but when she lowered her eyessadly... Jordan failed to notice the cold and sharp look in her eyes. Good; things are moving as Iplanned. That pair of b*stards must die in Cethos! From what I know of Sophia's temperament, shewill definitely get her revenge against them. If that happens, nobody can blame me, their mother,for their deaths. They brought it upon themselves by behaving in that uncouth manner! Needless tosay, she brought her own sons up strictly and held them to a high standard from an early age.

They also received the best education there was. Under her personal guidance, Callum and Cadewere outstanding from a young age. They stood out among their peers as the best among the best.At fifteen, they started taking over company affairs at the Ronney Group. However, the younger pairof twins... Haha; they're not my biological sons anyway. Why should I waste any effort on them? Ihate them so much I wish they were dead!
