Chapter 788
Cooper was in a good mood that day because Sophia’s operation went really sessful. He sat down
next to Sophia and coaxed her a little before he said, “I’ll talk to you about the genealogy record book
later.”
Then, he patted her shoulder before he turned to Sandra and asked, “Your father Alex is still in charge of
the group of elders right now, isn’t he? Judging from your tone, it seems that whether or not our names
can be written in the book is entirely up to him.”
Cooper was sitting while Sandra was standing. At that moment, Sandra was so furious she lifted her chin
and stared down at Cooper as she replied, “That’s right!”
“Then can you please tell me the names of the elders of the Mitchell family?” Cooper asked with interest.
“Also, do tell me about the rules of the genealogy record book!”
Hearing this, Sandra was secretly delighted. Sure enough, he still cares about it but he’s just
pretending not to.
And so, Sandra patiently told him the names of the elders of the Mitchell family and in the end, she even
emphasized, “All of these people heed my father’s orders. Whether or not your name enters the
genealogy record book is entirely up to him! If you want to have your name in the book, you’d better sign
these contracts!”
However, after listening to Sandra, Cooper shook his head. He had heard of these elders before and
they were all around the same age as him. ording to his standards, these people were not suitable to
be elders because they were not qualified! An elder of the Mitchell family should be highly respectful,
virtuous, fair, and just. However, all of the elders were now Alex’s subordinates.
No wonder the children of the Mitchell family are getting worse. To top it off, they even managed to raise
such an ungrateful offspring.
Cooper waved his hand andmented, “You can leave now. We won’t give you the shops.”
Hearing this, Sandrapletely lost her temper and she gave an order to her bodyguards, “Men, hold
that b*tch’s hand and force her to sign these contracts!”
I must have Scarlett’s shops today no matter what. Otherwise, how can I maintain my reputation of being
the young madam of the Mitchell family in front of Lucy? The reason I can be friends with Lucy is
because I’m part of the Mitchell family but if I can’t control this b*stard, I won’t be considered as a true
young madam of the Mitchell family!
Sandra had bodyguards but Cooper had bodyguards too. In a blink of an eye, a dozen men rushed in
front of Cooper to confront Sandra’s men. Cooper frowned and was considering whether he should cut
all of these people into pieces. However, his daughter had juste out of an operation so he was afraid
that the sight might frighten her. Never mind; I’ll just let them die in one piece…
However, he remembered that the young woman in front of him was a descendant of the Mitchell family
who had only walked on the wrong path and learned from the wrong people. Perhaps she didn’t do
things voluntarily. As such, he couldn’t bear to kill them either.
In that 0.001 second, countless thoughts shed through Cooper’s mind but in the end, he came up with
a more philosophical solution. He decided to numb them with anaesthetics and leave them on the road. If
they were run over by a car, it would mean that they deserved it.
He was just about to give the order when he saw a group of people walking toward them. As soon as the
leader of the group saw the situation, he frowned and asked loudly, “What’s going on?”
Sandra immediately turned around and realized they were members of the Edwards family. Moreover,
the person leading the group was Master Sam himself. Sam strode over and repeated, “What’s the
matter? Sandra, why are you here?”
Sandra’s expression instantly changed and with a respectful and humble attitude, she smiled softly. Her
features looked delicate as she smiled elegantly and said, “I heard that Scarlett had an operation so I
came over to see her and discuss matters about writing her name in the genealogy record book!”
Hearing this, Cooper snorted. This b*tch is really two-faced!
Sam obviously didn’t believe Sandra either. However, he didn’t say anything. After all, this was the
Mitchell family’s affairs and it would not be suitable for him to interrupt. In an apologetic tone, he asked,
“Am I interrupting?”
Sandra quickly replied, “No, you’re not.”
Then, she continued, “Master Sam, why are you here?”
“Cooper and I are childhood friends so I came over today to visit,” Sam murmured.
As Sam spoke, he didn’t dare to look at Cooper’s solemn expression. When Cooper saw that Sam had
come over, he was really upset but he didn’t embarrass him in front of the youngsters.
Meanwhile, Sandra’s heart was beating fast. I didn’t expect Cooper to have a close rtionship with
Master Sam. No wonder he’s not afraid of me. It seems that I won’t be able to get those shops today, but
I still have plenty of opportunities in the future!
With a smile, Sandra said, “In that case, I won’t be disturbing you both from catching up. Mr. Cooper, I’ll
visit you to discuss the genealogy another day.” With that, she gestured to her men and left.
Sam watched as they left before he slowly walked up to Cooper. At the risk of being beaten up on the
spot, he bowed and asked, “Cooper, do you need my help?”This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
Sam was not a fool so he could tell that Sandra was looking for trouble just now. However, he also knew
that with Cooper’s fierce methods, there was no way Cooper would be bullied by a child.
Although it was widely rumored that Cooper was sold to Africa for coal mining, Sam knew that it was
absolutely impossible. He had not been able to find out Cooper’s current identity but he knew Linus and
Linus’ family background. Cooper was living with Linus and Linus treated him with respect, so his identity
was really clear.
The poor Mitchell family actually thought that the family head of the dignified Michel family, the man who
controlled the coal mines in Africa, Fass Michel, was a coal miner!
I can’t believe that they sent a child to threaten Cooper. Now that the Mitchell family has fallen, I’m sure
Cooper feels upset too.
Cooper red at Sam and said nothing. At the same time, Sophia tilted her head and nced behind
Sam before she asked, “Uncle Sam, why didn’t you bring Corrado along?”
Hearing this, Sam’s heart sank as he thought, I’m not as weed as the dog. Then, he snapped his
fingers and Corrado rushed out with a swoosh.
Sophia was really happy and wanted to pet Corrado, but she had just had an operation and it was a little
inconvenient for her to move around. However, she was still really happy that Corrado came to see her.
Meanwhile, Cooper had already silently got up and walked away, and Sam followed him.
Sophia didn’t know what happened but thest time Sam and Cooper met, they had a fight so she
hurriedly said, “Dad, if there’s anything that needs resolving, talk it out. Please don’t fight. Both of you are
too old to be fighting.”
Cooper looked sullen and he said nothing. Later, the two of them entered the inpatient department of the
hospital and found a ce that was out of Sophia’s sight to have a chat.
After a while, the two of them finished speaking and came out. Cooper still had an angry expression
while Sam’s face was swollen and his nose was bleeding. When Sophia saw this, she was startled. “Dad,
you hit him again!”
Cooper denied. “No, I didn’t.”
Holding his face, Sam said, “I fell and hurt myself…”
Sophia immediately pouted in anger.
Sam limped as he trailed behind Cooper and said, “Sophia and Lucy are fighting over the shops. As her
uncle, I’m also responsible. Why don’t I teach Lucy a lesson on Sophia’s behalf?”
However, Cooper only said, “There’s no need.”
Sam tried again. “A few levels of offices above Sophia’s two rows of shops belongs to me. I’ll transfer all
of it to Sophia; think of it as a greeting gift from me to her.”
Hearing this, Cooper said, “Transfer the offices and leave.”
“Okay…” Sam hurriedly agreed.
