My Dreamy Old Husband -
Chapter 1454
After the wedding was over, Jordan still had not appeared, even after everyone had left the venue.In the end, the scene in everyone's imaginations where Jordan appeared and snatched Anna awaydid not happen. Both the Fletcher and the Winston Family were slightly disappointed since they hadalready made the relevant preparations. If Jordan appeared, they would work together to add ataste of blood to the wedding by bringing his head to Cooper as his wedding present.
It was simply a shame that the main character did not appear after they had already made all thepreparations to deal with him. However, this was also within everyone's expectations. Even thoughJordan was insane, he was not an idiot. Right now, it was meaningless to take Anna away anymore.In fact, many had been misled because of movies and films.
In the current era, it was meaningless to take the bride or bridegroom away before the wedding asthey would already have signed the relevant documents before the wedding. The records werealready sitting in the Civil Affairs Bureau, so it was pointless to take either of the couple away.Cooper and Anna had already signed the marriage papers. Even if Jordan decided to wreck theirwedding, they would still be husband and wife on paper. Apart from that, the security was thetightest at the wedding. If Jordan came here, he was as good as entering a trap himself. Then again,for both the couples, this also meant that Jordan was a ticking time bomb that might erupt anytime.He had been monitoring them in the dark and might jump out anytime to give them a shock. Thiswas the most difficult part of the defense.
And so, they did not idle around as well. Cooper had already sent out men to replace Jordan but hehad hidden himself well and did not leave any traces. No one knew where he was hiding. However,Jordan's retaliation soon arrived. The Ronney Group and Michel Group were in a lot of trouble. Oneminute it would be an internal betrayer, while the next it was their cooperating partners who werethe culprits; there were business arguments and fights everywhere.
After Cooper married Anna, he immersed himself into the intense fight with Jordan. Both Linus andCallum helped him to stabilize their ground
On the other hand, Sophia's days were much easier. She walked around with her pregnant belly,busy with her business as well. During the wedding, she threw her veil away because she was toohappy. Without that, she could not get married and she could not replace any replacements. Thinkingthat the wedding would not be complete without the veil, Anna and Cooper quickly issued a noticeto inform the person who picked it up to claim the prizes. Hence, they finally got the veil back andcontinued the wedding.
Unexpectedly, everyone tagged along and gave a bunch of presents to the lucky person who waschosen, and many others followed suit. Because of this, they accidentally made a big deal out of it.Since it was Sophia's publicity, she too joined the crowd and released her “high-tech luxury items’business concept, promising to give the lucky person the first batch of the samples. It was time toprepare for the new product lines again, so the company was quite busy. Even though Sophia justgot married, she immediately buried herself in work to make the necessary preparations nervously,without even going for a honeymoon. It was only until Michael brought a group of doctors to thecompany to catch her that she finally stopped.
Sophia's health had not been the best, so it was already a miracle that she could get pregnantagain. On top of that, she was expecting twins, so it was even more dangerous for her. If shemaintained the intensity of work, it was impossible for her to keep the babies, so she could only gohome to rest. Since there were many talents in her company, and Anna and Linus also sent a fewpeople to help out, Sophia did not need to exhaust herself this way.
As the babies in her belly were considered quite weak, Sophia was admitted into a hospital and hadto be on bed rest most of the time so that they could be born safely.
"Daddy, Mommy, prepare yourself! I'm going to open the dictionary!” Carmen closed her eyes andprepared to open the dictionary.
Meanwhile, Sophia was drinking tonic beside them while Michael wrote down a few words in anotebook. It was time to name the babies. Since there were two of them this time, they were takingthe naming even more seriously.
Eyes closed, Carmen flipped the dictionary open and stopped randomly at a page. Michael quicklywrote down the words that he liked as the name of his future children, even though the last namesof the babies were already decided—Yard and Mitchell. As their father, Michael did not even get anopportunity to pass his name down. However, with his young-looking father-in-law who had anuclear weapon in his hands, Michael dared not utter a word about it. No matter what names theyhad, they would still be his children after all, so he was very enthusiastic in giving them names.
For the names for the unborn children, he planned to have the same combination like Carmen.Perhaps he would use their names—'Sophia’ and “Michael'—as their children’s middle names.Quinton was also admitted into the hospital to fix Sean's “second-hand deal’ onto himself. After theoperation, his wounds were not fully healed yet, so he would have to endure the pain and clench hismuscles as he walked.
Everyday, he would go over to Sophia's ward to visit them. She would have visitors almost everydaywho would send her gifts. The tonics and supplements she received had already piled up into asmall hill, yet it was completely bare at Quinton’s ward. Not even one person sent him any vitamins,even though some had visited him. They are all rather thick-skinned indeed.
A few days ago, when Judge came over to visit Sophia, he also went over to see Quinton with anorange in its mouth, making Quinton extremely happy.
On this day, Quinton also came over to Sophia’s ward and took a bottle of her tonic. It should bealright to use Sophia's tonic to fix my “second-hand deal’. At least it's better than nothing at all.Apart from the tonics and supplements, there's nothing else with her.
When he saw Michael, the poor father who had not gotten any benefits yet who was still thinking ofnames for his children, Quinton snorted out a laugh. Ha! What a coward! If those were my kids, evenif I have to face a nuclear bomb, I will fight for the right to give them my family name. Cooper andAnna did not put in any effort to the kids at all and they don't have the rights to let the kids takeafter their family names.
Of course, Quinton only dared to think about it deep down. After all, he was afraid of the nuclearweapon as well.
“Hi, Professor Clark. How's your recovery going?” Linus, who should be abroad at this moment,suddenly appeared and tapped on Quinton’s shoulders. Quinton turned around and saw himholding many bags in his hands, a smile on his face.
“I'm alright,” Quinton replied as he shot a glance at Linus’ bags. He brought so many things over,surely one of them is mine! After all, we have known each other for more than ten years.
When Quinton was still an assassin, he helped Linus kill many of his competitors and Linus was oneof his biggest sources of income. In fact, Linus was his annual VIP customer. For every task he wasgiven, he had completed them perfectly and a third of his income was sponsored by Linus.Quinton, too, witnessed Linus’ growth from being a fearful adopted son to being the second-in-command at the Michel Family, from his young teenage years to his thirties, where he was adominant chairman now. No matter what, based on our relationship, half of those presents shouldbe mine.
Unfortunately, those were merely Quinton’s wishful thinking. After Linus brought all the bags intoSophia's ward, none of it came out when he walked out. Our decade-long relationship is all fornothing!
Even the few dogs would also visit Quinton after they came to Sophia’s ward. Linus, however, merelyvisited Sophia without even shooting a glance at Quinton. Sure enough... You can't take a businessrelationship seriously.
On the other hand, Linus was here to tell them great news—Lucy had decided to take action.
