My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1343

Cooper remained calm.

He was the one who killed Clive!

He didn’t think his actions were unjust.

He wouldn’t cover up if he wanted to kill someone, but he was not willing to be arrested so easily!

Neither he nor Linus said a word. They were not afraid of being under everyone’s gaze, but they chose not to speak and left all the talking to their lawyer.

All of a sudden, Sophia rushed out from the crowd.

“Dad! Linus!”

Her tearful voice crushed Cooper’s heart.

A sobbing Sophia ran over and held onto him with worry and fear all over her face because he had been handcuffed. He quickly consoled, “Don’t cry, darling. Don’t be scared. I will be fine. It’s just a small problem, but it will be resolved soon.”

“Dad…” She felt the icy handcuffs on his wrist; it was so cold that it pierced through her bones.

Cooper was taken into the police car, but he was still smiling at her. “It’s okay, darling. I’ll be back before you know it.”

Beside him, Linus was even more composed. He reassured, “It’s okay. Dad and I will be back soon.”

However, Sophia only continued to sob.

There was nothing she could do except watch Cooper and Linus get taken away in front of her.

She knew that Cooper’s sudden arrest was not solely because of the recent incident and that many other things were also at play. Lucy had once reminded her.

It looked like Jordan’s plan had been long premeditated. Even if it wasn’t for the incident this time, he would have found something else to frame Cooper for.

Furthermore, he had found and teamed up with a number of forces to oppose Cooper. It was not that simple this time around.

A person had silently gone up to stand beside Sophia and was watching her cry.

She looked so helpless and weak.

It reminded him of himself in the past; he was once that helpless too. During that cold night on Salvador Island, both of them held onto each other for warmth.

He longed to hold her just like he did back then, but it was no longer possible now.

At that moment, a car stopped at the entrance and Michael rushed out of it. When Sophia saw him, she let out a wail and buried herself in his arms.

“It’s okay. It won’t be for long. Dad and Linus will come home soon. The lawyers are already there.”

Michael looked at Quinton who was standing not too far behind Sophia.

While he was working overtime at the filming site last night, no one told him about what had happened. Sophia must have figured that it was a small matter and that it was not worth bothering him with.

Quinton is quite skilled, but I don’t blame him for this. Even if this incident had not happened, Jordan would have thought of other ways to bring Cooper and Linus down. Not to mention, that fella deserved to die.

Nonetheless, things were not looking up for them. The other party was being very aggressive. Michael also knew that this was not going to be that simple.

“We have the best lawyer. Dad and Linus will be out soon.”

As he was comforting Sophia, he also made a call on his phone.

As if Jordan wanted to prove his determination to crush Cooper, bad news continued to pour in in the following days.

Firstly, problems kept coming one after the other at the Michel Group. In Africa, the Michel Industries’ headquarters were ambushed repeatedly and several people in charge were killed. Some projects were left without a leader, causing chaos within the company. Additionally, several of their business partners canceled their partnerships all of a sudden which only complicated things further.
