Chapter 688


    Sophia smiled, face lighting up as she looked at Linus.


    “Mr. Fass, what a pleasure to finally meet you!” After sending Judge away, Sam ran into Linus after


    coming out of the bathroom.


    Before this encounter, Sam had long heard about Linus, and he also knew that Lucy had invited him to


    the annual meeting. What he did not know was that Linus and Sophia knew each other.


    As Sam’s reputation preceded him, Linus inched forward and shook his hand. “Master Sam, I’ve heard a


    lot about you.” The two had a friendly encounter.


    For reasons unbeknownst to him, Sam felt that there was something strangely familiar about Linus


    although they had never met. He had only ever seen him featured on the covers of certain business


    magazines.


    “Mr. Fass, do you know Sophia?” Sam asked, eyebrows raising in surprise.


    Sophia jumped in proudly, “Linus and I went to the same school!”


    Linus added, “And we share the exact same birth date.”


    We probably shouldn’t mention the fact that we are sworn siblings.


    Same birth date…


    Sam frowned and said, “Let’s head inside.”


    Linus’ appearance had attracted a lot of attention. Since this was the Edwards Family’s annual meeting,


    everyone that showed up was rted to the Edwards Family in one way or the other. There were hardly


    any outsiders invited.


    However, when people heard that he was invited by Lucy, people seemingly understood why he was


    here.


    Upon entering the banquet hall, Linus met with Lucy. At the same time, Sophia finally returned and


    walked up to Michael.


    Linus’ appearance piqued his interest. Linus? Why is he here? Did he marry into the Edwards Family?


    Meanwhile, Sophia looked excited as she carried Garfield in her arms; she was looking forward to letting


    Linus see Garfield and Nichs.


    Much to her dismay, she did not have the opportunity to do that tonight. Lucy was busy bringing Linus


    around for him to meet different members of the Edwards Family. It was as if she was introducing her


    boyfriend to her rtives for the first time.


    The news about the wedding between the Michel Family and the Edwards Family quickly spread like


    wildfire; the public had great expectations toward this marriage. On a side note, Lucy was older than


    Linus by three years… he was going to marry an older woman!


    After hearing this news, Michael was incredibly perplexed.


    Harry leaned over and joked, “Your ex is going to marry your brother-inw! Are you terrified?”


    Is the Edwards Family really going forward with the Michel Family on this?


    While carrying Garfield in her arms, Sophia lingered close to Lucy and Linus. Naturally, Sophia also


    heard the news.


    Linus is going to marry Lucy? Why do I have the feeling that Linus isn’t too happy about it… Since he


    turned up at the annual meeting, doesn’t this mean he’s agreed to this arrangement? Is this a wedding


    for political gains?


    Sophia was in a daze as she stood at the sidelines of the huge crowd. Before she realized it, the dinner


    banquet hade to an end.


    After returning to her room that night, Sophia removed her makeup and took a shower. She then


    changed into cartoon-themed pajamas, applied a face mask,y on her bed, and started swiping her


    phone.


    Firstly, she created a group chat for the barbecue and added whoever needed to be added to it: Harry,


    Sarah, Michael, Sam, and even Linus.


    Michaely next to her, also applying a face mask to take care of his aged face. When he clicked into the


    group chat, he received a notification that Sophia had just added Linus to the group chat.


    Tsk! Can’t Linus give us a break? But, as long as she’s happy, there’s nothing I can do.


    Later on, she began exchanging voice messages with Linus.


    Linus stated, “I brought you a little something. I’ll pass it to you tomorrow.”


    Tsk! Look at that… I’m getting jealous again.


    After putting her phone away, Sophia went to wash her face. When she got back, she started talking to


    Michael about what happened today.


    “Judge is totally out of control! He was trying to bring Corrado with him to eat poop! We need to quickly


    get our dog back. Otherwise, we might get ourselves into trouble one day! What if Master Sam found out


    that Judge had taught Corrado to eat poop? We’ll be in deep sh*t. You have to go and pick him up


    tomorrow!”


    Upon hearing that, Michael frowned so hard that his face mask dropped from his face. Trying to put it


    back, he said, “That’s embarrassing. I’m not going.”


    Sophia responded, “You have to show up tomorrow! That dog belongs to your nephew, not mine!”


    Michael clicked his tongue in disapproval without saying a word. He then washed his face and went to


    bed.


    That night, the two kept pushing each other in bed.


    “You go.”


    “No. I’m not going. You go.”


    “You’re an actor. You have thicker skin.”


    “I’m a public figure. I need to save my face.”


    “Anyway, I won’t be going. I leave the decision to you.” Still pushing each other in bed, they were equally


    loath to pick up Judge the next day.


    …


    In Sam’s room, he had just finished reading the book written by Sophia. He then took out his phone and


    watched all her IG Stories, going back as far as the ones postedst year and the year before that.


    Watching her at work, working out, or at school, Sam felt that she did live a wonderful life.


    When it came to her picture with Michael, Sam was annoyed.


    They don’t match each other! They don’t even look like a couple at all. Michael’s love for her is not true


    love! Since he knows that the poop-eating husky belongs to Sophia, why wouldn’t he show up to take


    him away? To him, his face is surely worth more than his wife!


    Much to his surprise, just shortly after breakfast the next morning, Lucy showed up with Michael to pick


    up the dog.


    “Sam, the husky that you took with youst time belongs to Taylor. He’s here to take him back.”


    Looking apologetic, Michael said, “I’m terribly sorry for the inconveniences caused. This dog is mine. I


    identally packed him into my luggage and brought him here.”


    Not saying a word, Sam took the dog out by its leash and passed it to Michael, who in turn passed it to


    Hale.


    Lucy frowned and let out a disgusted look as she saw Judge.


    Why is Taylor’s dog eating poop? Oh, dear…


    Sam did not know how to respond as he watched Michael leave with the dog.


    He really showed up! But, lowering himself anding to take the dog doesn’t mean anything. It merely


    shows that the dog means a lot to him.


    Prior to this, Sam had never paid any attention to Taylor. All that he knew was that this movie star used


    to date Lucy. After Lucy’s car ident, Jordan decided to call off the wedding, perhaps because Taylor


    was an actor and he felt that he could not match up to Lucy.


    Material ? N?velDrama.Org.


    This time around, he had instructed someone to dig into Taylor’s identity and provide every detail to him.


    This investigation did indeed unearth some surprising information.


    Taylor was a secretive person. No one really knew his background and upbringing except that he had


    strong support backing him up. His mother was Elizabeth Murray while the identity of her father was


    unknown. Notwithstanding, there was information suggesting some connection between his father, who


    died decades ago, and the Fletcher Family. Having made his debut as an artist in his teenage years,


    Taylorter went into the army. After that, he returned to the movie industry. He truly had a lot of different


    experiences under his belt.


    Sam tried to nit-pick his problems as he went over the information. Eventually, he came to a


    conclusion: He’s not good enough for Sophia! He’s not worthy of her. The daughter of Cooper and


    Annabel deserves someone better!
