My Dreamy Old Husband
Chapter 414

After they made a pinky swear, Nathan still had his doubts about Michael. still, Nate would observehim for a while, considering how sincere Michael had been.

Michael reined in the smile on his face after his talk with Nathan and called up the production teamin Africa. Even though he had quickly wrapped up all his parts there to rush back home to makelove to Sophia, the production team was still filming back in Africa.

“The production needs some promotion. It's time to kick things up a notch.”

Michael went down to the basement. Since he had been so busy with last night's romp, he hadn'teven gotten to greet Abel yet.

“How are things? Seen Fass Michel?” Abel immediately asked the moment Michael arrived.

Michael shook his head. “Just Linus Michel.”

Abel promptly searched up Linus in his database.

The Michels were a little on the mysterious side, but this Linus Michel was even more mysteriousthan the rest of his family. He was only about twenty this year, and he only made a publicappearance at the age of sixteen. His history prior to that was a complete blank. There was nothingto be found at all. His grades the past years had been excellent, and while he seemed to be next inline to head the family, Fass Michel had already retreated to the shadows. So, Linus was practicallythe head of the Michel Group on the surface.

There was more information on him than Fass, at least when it came to photos of him. A simplesearch turned up plenty of photos of him at galas and such. He truly was a young prodigy for him tohave stabilized the entire Michel Family at the tender age of twenty.

Now that he had mentioned Linus, Michael asked Abel, “How's the search for chica’s older brother?”At that, Abel smacked his own head hard. “I was about to call you down last night, but you were sobusy getting it on with Sophia that I didn't want to bother you. I've unearthed plenty of interestingthings.”

Abel slowly went through the information that he had dug up. “I went to Europe and found thecouple who adopted the boy. They were indeed an educated family, but they were unable toconceive. They viewed the boy like their own and gave him the best education they could.

The boy was three when he displayed astounding intellect. Thus, the media took notice of this, andhe even got to be on TV then. If this were to happen now, he probably would have been an Internetcelebrity. Unfortunately, the boy was kidnapped by a group of mysterious people when he was five.”“Kidnapped?” Michael was greatly startled. “How did that happen?”

Abel shook his head and sighed. “The couple didn't know who that group was. The group forcefullytook the child after they left a million for the couple. Since that group had far too much power intheir hands, it was no use even when the couple had reported this to the police.

They were simply too powerful. After they bought the kid, the group took away all photos of theboy, and they even took down all videos of the TV stations’ interviews with him. All photos onlinewere deleted as well! I haven't been able to so much as get my hands on one of the boy's pictures.”Michael's expression turned stony. “Not even a single photo?”

However, Abel grinned mysteriously. “I wonder if you know about the blocks they put on theInternet here back then?”

Back when the nation’s Internet infrastructure was in its infancy, in order to help the development ofnational networks, the nation had limited its citizens’ access to websites out of the country, all sothat the nation’s industry could grow.

"Years ago, some local websites compiled interesting articles about the world outside. Whoever waspulling the strings may have unprecedented power, but he forgot about the blocks on the Internethere. There are still a few holes in the Internet blocks,” Abel excitedly said. He then clicked on aphoto in an article in excitement. “Read this. Don't be surprised now.”

Now that he had clicked on the photo, Michael saw that it was actually a blurry photo of anewspaper article with the title “Child Prodigy Discovered Abroad—Four-Year-Old Boy Who Solves3-Variable Linear Equation’.

The accompanying photo was a blurry one of a young boy. While it was blurry, Michael could stilltell at one glance that the boy in the photo was that of a different ethnicity.

He couldn't help but furrow his brows. How was it possible for Sophia's brother to be of a differentethnicity? He was supposed to be her twin!

"I tracked down the nurse who took the boy. She said that she was rather close with Annabel, whohad begged her to save her children, asking her to take the children once they were born and placethem with kind families.

When Annabel gave birth to the first twin, the nurse took the boy and gave him to some distantrelatives who were infertile. She then tricked Annabel's family with the corpse of a stillborn fromanother delivery. Unfortunately, she didn't have the time to move the other baby.”

Michael didn't know what to say after listening to the story. The boy who had been taken away thenwas raised by a family that loved knowledge, but Sophia, who hadn't been able to be moved in timewas forced to suffer so much.

“The nurse confirmed that the boy had the appearance of a different ethnicity from his sister. Shehad been so shocked back then, but medical science has an explanation for that: these are mixedtwins. Fraternal twins, basically. They don't look alike at all.

Even their skin tone is different. There have been cases of other families with biracial twins who wereborn like this as well. Cooper Mitchell's mother was from a different ethnicity from his father, andCooper didn't inherit her genes, but the boy did.”

Who would have thought there would be such a plot twist behind the scenes?

That mysterious person was so powerful that he could erase all proof of this boy's existence fromthe world, leaving behind only this blurry photo that was barely recognizable. It would be an uphilltask to track down the boy.

Truly, Sophia's family was filled with secretly terrifying people!

A lightbulb lit up in Michael's head as he compared the blurry picture of the child with Linus’ photo.Could it be?

Meanwhile, Sophia slept till one in the afternoon, only waking up once she was hungry. It just sohappened that Michael had emerged from his study when she was heading downstairs. The two ofthem ate in the dining room. As they ate, Michael kept teasing her. “Still angry?”

"Of course!” Sophia didn't even bother to look up. As she ate, she deleted all the trashy selfies shetook with him that she had posted to social media.

All of a sudden, her browser recommended a trending article to her.

“Shocking news: Female celeb carried away by lion while filming in Africa caught on video.’

Wow, this is one fascinating article.

She curiously clicked on that article. The video indeed showed there was a movie shoot at asavannah. The actress had been acting with her male co-star, a mosaic on her face.

The camera then shifted when suddenly, a huge lion charged out from the side, picking up theactress quickly before dashing off. Everyone there screamed while several bodyguards with riflescame in from off-screen to chase after the lion. The production was in chaos.

The video shook the entire Internet when it was released. Wasn't the actress who had been carriedaway Faye Edwards? She had actually been carried away by a lion!

Sophia was completely stunned.

Michael's destructive power had struck again! As expected, whoever spread rumors about himwould be met with a bad fate.

Sophia browsed the news, revelling in Faye's bad luck. The news said that Faye was rescued, but shehad nearly been bitten in half. She was suffering from severe blood loss and a bad emotionalbreakdown, so she wrapped up filming ahead of schedule and went home.

Sophia scrolled through the news with one hand, delighting over Faye's articles. She wondered ifthat little hussy would dare to use her husband for fame like that again. However, Sophia didn’tnotice that Michael had grabbed her free hand and placed his own on top of it. His large handencased hers, pressing their rings together.

Click. He snapped a picture of their hands together before editing Sophia’s hand to her liking. Oncehe was done airbrushing her blemishes, he posted the picture to his Twitter account that he hadn'ttouched in forever along with a caption.

“I finished my filming as fast as I could so that I can go home. At last, I managed to make it in timefor our second anniversary. We shall face our third year together side by side.’
