My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 114

Sophia spat those harsh words out.

Sooner or later, she was going to catch each of the four Yard brothers and make them pay!

At the side, Linus and Cooper had grown quiet as they looked at Michael who was trying to comfort Carmen in his arms.

Michael also looked back at them.

They felt like Sophia was spoiling Carmen. The mother and daughter practically brought home anything they found outside to raise.

Cats and dogs were one thing. They also put up with alpacas, lions, pigs, and chickens. But now, the two even wanted to raise a buffalo! A water buffalo!

They wanted to say no to them each time but could not bear to do it when they were so lovable.

Perhaps it was a good thing that the animals got stolen.

Suddenly, they felt grateful toward the Yard Family.

Cooper still thought that it was a bit unusual. He had a feeling that the Yard Family might not have been behind all of it. Nevertheless, stealing a buffalo in a helicopter was only something that the wealthy and extravagant Yard Family could do.

It was possible that this was an inside job.

In the current situation, though, the theft seemed like a good thing.

Cooper did not want to wake up the next day to find a giant water buffalo in their garden fountain.

If that were to happen, he would also find a pair of sheep on the balcony a few days after that, and an alpaca on the overhead roof in the days to come.

Callum still dropped in to provoke Sophia every now and then. Meanwhile, the pig looked like it was living a life of nobility, traveling around in sports cars and airplanes. It even had the chance, every day, to play with the noble cat that owned 1% of the Ronney Group’s stocks. The pig was living a very content life.

Callum even threatened to steal the chicken and alpaca.

When Michael found out, he was delighted for several days. But, even after the excitement wore off, the Yards still had not come to steal the chicken.

Pfft. That coward. He’s too scared to steal a chicken! Such a liar!

To get back at the Yard Family for stealing her pig, Sophia invested in opening the biggest seafood market next to the ancestral hall that the Yards had chosen. Just two days after their opening, the fishy smell spread across the vicinity and ended up lowering the prices of nearby houses by a few percent. People were also pinching their noses as they walked by.

The Yard Family’s ancestor plaques were also enveloped by the fishy smell.

Shortly after, Professor Hill, a professor from Bayside University’s history department who specifically did research on modern history, published a thesis that stunned other historians. Professor Hill uncovered the actions of the Yard Family when foreign allied forces invaded Cethos a hundred years ago. It caused a great stir among other historians. Domestically, many history professors came together and appealed to include the truth about this historical event in mandatory education and textbooks.

Apart from the community of historians, this also brought a great shock to the general public.

Who would have thought that the Yard Family had done something like that before?

Sophia was able to honor her word in making the Yard Family a test question in history textbooks.

She managed to tarnish the Yards’ eighteen generations of honor.

At the mention of the Yard Family now, there was only a stench to their name; one with a blend of fishy odors!

Michael kept feeling that Sophia’s tactics were no different from Callum and Cade’s.

When Sophia helped Sandra replace Natasha back then, and even locked Natasha up, the public kept replaying Sandra’s life as a noble lady after replacing Natasha. It was torture to Natasha and it eventually drove her to commit suicide.

Presently, Callum had stolen Sophia’s pig and was sending her pictures to show off whenever he pleased, making her almost explode with anger.
