My Flirtacious Husband novel Chapter 1231

Chapter 1231 Cannot Marry You

Cooper was displeased. “Did I say that?”

“No. But I think so.”

Both Erica and Jane were gentle and caring women. As such, Steven had a preconceived notion that gentle women were Cooper's type.

Cooper leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes. “I'm not interested in Ms. Yerton. I courted her earlier because the two children liked her, and she was also their teacher.”

He added, “I said that just now because I was afraid that if I were too harsh, she would get upset and give the children a hard time at school.”

“Who are you interested in then? Is it Ms. Loake?” Steven asked again.

Cooper sneered when he heard that. “Am I crazy?”

“Well, you do look crazy to me.” Steven saw Cooper knitting his brows and exuding a cold aura through the rearview mirror.

“Ever since Sally left, you've changed. You're not a short-tempered person, but you have been in a bad mood recently and tend to lose your temper,” he added.

“Because she did not stick to the agreement and was ungrateful,” Cooper explained coldly.

“Is that so?” Steven asked. “Before I went to pick you up, someone from the bar called me and said that you smashed Zeno's head after he insulted Sally.”

Cooper placed his hand on his forehead and closed his eyes, saying nothing. No, that's not it. I was just upset and frustrated by what Sally did, so I was eager to find her and demand an explanation from her.

The pain in his wound and everything that unfolded that night made Cooper restless. He tossed and turned in bed, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already afternoon the next day.

Bertilla thought he had something urgent to deal with and did not disturb him.

Cooper was a smart person. Even though Gerald's placid tone and calm expression didn't reveal anything, Cooper could still tell that the new mayor was not from the Gaudette family.

As for why Gerald won't tell me the new mayor's name... I guess people in politics are all arrogant and look down on businessmen.

Gerald blew on the coffee and took a sip before adding, “I know you have put a lot of effort into my case. I owe you one, Mr. Sutton. Except for matters that concern the Gaudette family, I'll try my best to support you if you need help with anything in the future.”

“Just get straight to the point.” Cooper knew there was an underlying meaning behind the older man's words. He was clearly implying something.

Seeing how smart Cooper was, Gerald stopped beating around the bush. “Sally can marry a major general, a chief, or a minister, but not you.”

Cooper's surmise about Gerald disdaining businessmen like him was now confirmed.

The flames of rage within his heart were instantly set ablaze by Gerald's words. If I wasn't wealthy enough to send so many people looking for evidence, he would have been sentenced to life imprisonment for the offense of violating a minor. If that happens, he can kiss his position goodbye, too. Now that he's released, he has the audacity to use his authority to intimidate me, huh?
