My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1259

They almost caught me in Africa, but I didn’t expect them to come to Cethos.

“Oh my goodness, my head hurts.”

Early in the morning, Sophia, who just finished her breakfast and had a facial mask on, walked around the house with a cat in her arms. When she glanced at the surveillance monitors and saw the group of cars at the entrance, she felt goosebumps all over her body.

The Michel family and people from Adams Group were here.

Cooper calmly put on his shoes and as he headed out, he said, “Tell them I’m not home.” After he finished speaking, he went to the basement of Villa No. 2, which was Linus’s house, and stayed there.

Sophia was speechless. Cooper had slipped away really quickly because he had nothing to say to those people. Then, Linus said, “Don’t worry, just leave them standing at the gates. After not seeing anyone for a while, they’ll leave.”

At that moment, Michael also came downstairs with a facial mask on. He glanced at the surveillance monitors and saw that there were several cars parked outside. I don’t think avoiding them all the time is a good idea. Why don’t we invite them in and have a proper discussion? Besides, the matter between the Winston family and Betsy must come to an end. Do they really think that they have solved it? We have been busy with New Year’s celebrations for the past few days but since they have come here personally today, we should solve everything all in one go.

“Let them in and notify Ethan.”

Maria made the call and not long after, Sarah rushed into the house angrily with a knife in her hand. “That cow is here??”

Harry glanced at the surveillance and saw that cars from the Michel family and the Adams family were parked in the open-air parking lot of the residential area. The security guards had only allowed a few people to enter. However, he didn’t see Tiffany and Betsy. There are three people from the Adams family, two tall and sturdy bodyguards and a… child?

Soon, the visitors arrived at the house. Sophia had already changed her clothes and was downstairs. She sat together with Michael, and on the opposite side of the sofa were members from the Michel family. The four elders were pretty old and Sophia didn’t know any of them, so she named them Elder A, Elder B, Elder C, and Elder D. Meanwhile, there were three people from the Adams family. The two adults were standing while the child sat on the chair.

Sophia glanced at the child several times. He was a foreign teenager with enchanting emerald eyes who was around Nathan’s age. He was wearing a professional black suit that didn’t match his age, and he had on a cold expression.

Cooper and Linus slipped away so Sophia was the only one left behind to deal with them.

“Why is this man in your house?” Elder A from the Michel family asked as he looked at Michael with a serious expression.

Without any hesitation, Sophia quickly made up a lie. “Oh, after we got divorced, we couldn’t agree on dividing this property so we are staying together for the time being. After all, this is one of the best properties in Bayside City. Both of us can’t give it up.”

Hearing this, Michael tried to hold back his laugh.

Elder B asked, “Where’s Gianna?”

Sophia replied, “She’s out playing.”

Michael did not respond and pretended to read the newspaper. Then, Elder A made some introductions. “This is Bailey, the CEO of Adams Group.”

Sohpia saw that Elder A was looking at the teenager who was sitting on the sofa when he was making the introduction.

Wait, what?! Sophia and Michael glanced at each other and didn’t dare to speak. That child… is the CEO?!

Unexpectedly, the teenager suddenly spoke in fluent Cethosian with a Bayside City slang. “Hi, I’m Bailey. Nice to meet you.”
