After the whole family wandered around the countryside for a while, it was already very late by the time they reached Riverdale City. When they arrived home, Carmen had already fallen asleep in Sophia’s arms and looked adorable with her little red face. Sophia took Carmen to bed while Cooper printed out the photos he took today and placed them in his study room.
Annabel, Sophia and Carmen made up three generations born in different times and spaces, yet all of them had taken a photo under that persimmon tree. Cooper couldn’t help but smile as he looked at the photos. If only Annabel was still around…
He imagined the scene and laughed to himself, but he couldn’t stop himself from wiping away the tears that fell down his face.
When he came out of the study room, he saw Michael and Sophia hanging a big photo in the living room—it was the group photo they had taken earlier today in front of the persimmon tree. Michael had found someone to restore Annabel’s photo and photoshopped her next to Cooper. Cooper, Annabel and Linus stood alongside Sophia’s family of three, and all of them looked incomparably harmonious. Cooper felt tears stinging his eyes again as he stared at the group photo.
At that moment, Michael realized he had learned this bad habit of using his feet to rub the dog from Sophia.
Not only does she use her feet to play with the dog, she even rubs Snowball with them!
Tsk… Previously, Sophia had even scolded him for being rude and using his feet to touch the dog. Now, he realized that the whole family lived like noble lords who used their feet to touch their dogs.
Even his father-in-law and brother-in-law were stretching their feet and rubbing it around the dog’s fur, so he was only following the family’s tradition. Michael felt like he was finally part of Cooper’s family.
…
After returning from the Johnson Family Village, Cooper resumed the search for his son. 30 years ago, only several women from Johnson Village had been able to enter college. Therefore, it was easy to track down Finian’s alleged aunt, the woman who took his son.
Finian’s aunt was a professor at a university in Bayside City. Her husband was her former classmate; after they graduated, they stayed and worked at the school until both of them became professors. She still couldn’t get pregnant at the age of 30, so they mysteriously adopted a child before resigning and emigrating to someplace else.
He followed this trail and personally went abroad to look for them. Unfortunately, the whereabouts of the Cethosian couple who had migrated more than 20 years ago was still a mystery…
No matter how difficult it is, I must not give up. I have to find my son no matter what it takes!
Meanwhile, both the high-end and low-end versions of Dragon Eye were officially on sale in Bayside City; Alice was in charge of the only store in Cethos that sold the high-end version of Dragon Eye.
In a short period of time, dozens of retail stores selling the low-end version of Dragon Eye bloomed everywhere. With Dragon Eye stores sprouting up all around the country, they had a considerable amount of sales.
Sophia had spent a lot of resources to promote Dragon Eye; she put out advertisements everywhere with sky-high marketing costs, but she managed to achieve the desired effect of Dragon Eye in the end.
Michael had also gone abroad to shoot a movie, but since most of the scenes were based in Cethos, he returned to Bayside City after he was done with the foreign scenes. He shot the rest of the movie here, and he lived in Sophia’s house every now and then.
While Cooper was busy looking for his son, Michael became more comfortable around the house; he even deliberately rubbed a few of Cooper’s favorite cats with his feet.
Lots of great things were happening in Sophia’s household—it started off with Bubbles giving birth to a litter of black poodles!
Meanwhile, Snowball had given birth to a few black Samoyeds!
Black as a shadow, they looked nothing like their father apart from the color of their fur!
