In the teahouse, Cooper burst out an earth-shaking roar after seeing that his chessboard had a corner bitten off by Cash, that husky. That completely ignited his rage.
Startled, Cash fled like lightning.
After that, Cooper finally sat down and continued the game.
With the chessboard that had a corner chewed off by Cash, Cooper and Daniel played a few rounds in which Cooper kept losing.
“Dogs protect homes so it’s beneficial to have many of them.”
Lately, Daniel had been visiting Cooper’s house frequently because Sophia planned to renovate the house, so she asked him to check their feng shui. Therefore, he often dropped by to take a look and while he was here, he took the opportunity to have a few chess games and chats with Cooper as well as some tea.
While collecting the chess pieces, Daniel commented, “Mr. Mitchell, you’ve been extremely peevish and impetuous lately, which isn’t how you usually are.”
Without replying to him, Cooper slapped Cash to stop him from chewing the table and only then did he answer, “If you know you have a son but you can’t find him, you’ll be as disturbed as me, Master Levine.”
Daniel had started to grow his hair long and he had put his hair up with a hair stick. Wearing a loose Taoist robe, he seemed divine. At that moment, he smiled and said, “Unfortunately, I’m not you and I don’t have a son. So, I can’t put myself in your shoes.”
Cooper snorted in reply.
Daniel continued, “You and your son’s fate hasn’t ended so you’ll meet him again. There’s no need to be anxious, Mr. Mitchell.”
Cooper snorted again.
“Mr. Levine, you’ll eventually have a child one day and by that time, you’ll understand my feelings.”
Keeping his silence, Daniel smiled and continued to play chess with Cooper.
How would he have a son when he was living a leisure and carefree life?
Suddenly, Dimon came in and whispered in Cooper’s ears. Then, Cooper said, “Please excuse me.”
It was afternoon now and Daniel had been at the Edwards Residence since lunch. He planned to have dinner here as well before going home.
The two huskies sneaked back in again and lay down under the table to take a nap. Rubbing his foot on the husky’s head, Daniel found it rather comfortable.
Ever since he was forced by Michael to find Cooper, he had been risking his life every day to carry out his task. If he failed, Michael might really send the Cereberus to Reverie Mountain judging from his character.
Fortunately, he made some progress lately. Although Cooper hadn’t given in, Daniel knew that his heart had started to waver.
However, Daniel also keenly sensed that Cooper had an important reason for prohibiting Sophia to marry Michael.
Nevertheless, he had promised Michael so he had to fulfil his task.
Looking at the chessboard, he racked his brain, trying to figure out what that important reason was.
