My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1425

The receptionist at the front desk of the office building was taken aback when she saw the arrival of the entourage before her, but she maintained a perfunctory smile as she greeted them, “Hi, how may I help you today?”

“I’m here to see Fass,” Tiffany replied in her thick Bayside accent.

“Do you have an appointment?” the receptionist asked.

Tiffany scoffed, then said primly, “An appointment? I’m Fass’ wife, and I’m here with my son to see my husband. Why would I need to make an appointment?”

Those in the lobby who were within earshot now turned to look at Tiffany curiously, and their gazes fell upon the child, as well as the nanny who was carrying him.

Fass’ son… Since when did he have another son?

It seemed as if the rumors that had been going around the company were true—Fass must be getting married soon with Tiffany, director of the Adams Group, since they already have a child together!

This meant that the woman standing at the front desk right now was the soon-to-be Mrs. Michel!

Upon making the connection, the receptionist’s expression shifted, and—not wanting to offend the woman—she immediately allowed Tiffany to pass through, then said, “Mr. Fass isn’t in right now—”

“I know.” Tiffany cut her off as she strode into the lobby. She took the elevator, which was meant for executives, and began to make her rounds in the company. Those who saw her whispered to each other excitedly as she passed by.

It had been a while since the rumor of Fass’ engagement to Tiffany had first started, but seeing Tiffany here in the company today was a different kind of validation altogether.

Furthermore, Cooper was a renowned figure all over Cethos upon having skyrocketed to fame after appearing on ‘My Grandpa in Shining Armor’.

He was well-versed in firearms, and he had single-handedly built an armament empire.

He displayed a prowess for computers, and half of the world’s supply for computer parts was manufactured by the subsidiaries under his company.

He was also the first person who had come up with the programming algorithm for video games, and it was in his name that all esports players gathered in collective prayer before the start of each gaming competition.

With his dashing looks and ageless mixed-race features, coupled with the gentleness that lay beneath his cold facade, Cooper had successfully won over the hearts of viewers as ‘The Nation’s Grandpa’. The ratings for ‘My Grandpa in Shining Armor’ had gone through the roof, surpassing the records of similar shows that had been filmed in the past. In fact, in terms of reality shows, the popularity of Cooper was only second to that of Taylor Murray carrying a piglet.

Many had grown curious as to the marital and family life of Cooper, a grandpa whose armor shone brighter than others. From the looks of it now, he was likely engaged to Tiffany. One could only imagine the heartbreak that would seize the nation’s many hopeful damsels who were pining over Cooper.

When Linus found out that Tiffany was here in the company, he was frustrated, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Cooper was still being evasive with his so-called ‘strategic retreat’, thus leaving Linus and Sophia to clear up the mess he’d left behind, which was the size of Bayside City.

“Let her be,” was all Linus could say, resigned.

As such, Tiffany spent the better half of the day surveying each and every part of Michel Group, making her presence known to everyone in the building. She wanted them to know that she was Mrs. Michel—stepmother to Sophia, mother-in-law to Taylor, and grandmother to Carmen.

Once she was done making waves in Michel Group, she headed over to Dragon Technology Corporation, which was another one of Cooper’s old nests. Cooper had plans to consolidate Mitchell Energy and Technology with Dragon Technology this year, which meant the business development would surely progress on a much larger scale.

Tiffany saw her child as ammunition; in order for her to wield authority, she needed to declare to the world that she and Cooper were soon to be married, and that they had a son together.

Other than that, she’d also set up her own Twitter account, on which featured the many details of her life in Sophia’s home. She’d even tweeted about the strawberries that Carmen had given her for New Year’s, eager to show off in cyberspace that she’d been well-integrated into the Mitchell family.

Linus might be tolerant enough to turn a blind eye on all of Tiffany’s antics, but Sophia was not—to say she was furious at Tiffany would be an understatement.

That piece of trash! Sophia cursed inwardly. Tiffany, that sly, old b*tch!

“Hey, Sophia, what’s going on between your dad and Tiffany? The head of our department had me rush over to Dragon Technology for the scoop!” Maddie exclaimed over the phone presently.

That was when Sophia found out that Tiffany had tipped off the journalists and reporters in advance.

When Tiffany was done making her rounds in Dragon Technology and was heading out of the building with her child on her hip, it came as no surprise that she was surrounded by a horde of reporters, who had been waiting for her outside.
