Chapter 842
“That’s Stan!” Upon taking two steps forward, Sophia glimpsed Stanley’s picture hanging on the wall,
looking all formidable with his trademark crew cut while holding Judge’s leash in his hand, Judge
appearing very impressive as well. With the illumination provided, she could clearly see that his
introduction included the founder of Plum Technology, a renowned esports yer, and a multi-time
singles champion of Esports World Championship. Beside him were Sean and Sarah, both listed as the
founders of Plum Technology. Regretfully, she wasn’t there. She pouted. “I’m not there…” Even Faye,
Sandra, Irene, and Lucy were there, but not her.
“Back then, the pictures of you four were hung up concurrently, but the ident then befell you, and
Plum Technology increased in scale, so they changed things up,” Michael exined. “It’s fine. You’ll also
be there in a few days.”
As they both walked along the alumni corridor, Sophia asked him some strange questions, such as, “Are
Stan and Sean dating?” and “Are they nning to go abroad to get married soon?”
Michael’s brows furrowed. Never had I expected her intuition to be so spot on. He gave an exasperated
sigh. “It’s a long story. It all began when Sean was young…” When Sean was young, he often visited
Fletcher Residence to y with Stanley. Since he had long, ck hair and wore a pink tutu, everyone
thought that he was Stanley’s little girlfriend. Even Michael thought that he was a girl and treated him
exceptionally well, but unexpectedly, he turned out to be a boy.
They chatted while walking, the two of them blending into the dark sky in Bayside City after walking
through the alumni corridor… At longst, the bodyguards found Sophia. Upon seeing that their fingers
were interlocked, they were driven by the urge tomit murder, but since Sophia was there, they
couldn’t really do so. Thus, they maintained a dark expression throughout the drive home, feeling that
theirdy had been defiled.
When they arrived back at The Imperial, Michael saw Sophia to the door, only to be greeted by the sight
of the 2.5m cat blocking the door. Cooper was treating the cat like a guard dog, tying it to the door to
keep him out. Sophia could only get in by stepping over it, and Michael followed behind her. He was on
cloud nine today, so the enormous orange cat seemed much more pleasing to him, and he couldn’t help
stroking it.

Upon entering the house, the lights in the living room were turned on. The three members of the Mitchell
Family were sitting in the living room, watching television. Again, Cooper wore a long face, dourness and
displeasure written all over his face.
The moment they stepped foot into the house, Carmen flew over like a butterfly. “Mommy! Daddy!”
Hugging her, Sophia couldn’t help giving her a kiss. How adorable! She’s grown a lot. It’s just been half a
day since Ist saw her, but she seems to have be cuter by 100 times! When she was done with
her cutie pie, she then walked over to Cooper and said, “I’m home, Dad.”
“Hmm…” There was a sense of resentment within Cooper, but he couldn’t vent at his precious daughter,
so he shot daggers at Michael. He knew that his daughter would have her own life now that she was all
grown up and would date sooner orter. Mark phoned him today, saying that he’d seen the live
broadcast, thus inquiring about their progress since they seemed to be getting on very well. Cooper then
proposed that Michael marry into the Mitchell Family, to which Mark instantly agreed, all gung ho to have
him married away immediately. However, at the sight of them bothing into the house with fingers
intertwined, he was still very much irritated.
“Mr. Cooper, I’ve brought Sophia home safely, so I’ll be taking my leave.” After hugging Carmen and
giving her some instructions, Michael then went home. His steps were airy when he left, and he felt as
though he was walking on air. I’ve already held her hand, so I’ll surely get to kiss her on the cheek next
time! Today, Great-Grandpa even called to ask whether I was willing to marry into the Mitchell Family. Of
course, I’m willing! I’m extremely willing. It’ll be great to be a live-in son-inw!
Sophia scrolled through the news, only to see that she and Michael had be the talk of town. Fans
were all offering their blessings to the actor who was past his prime yet made aeback now for
finding his love for the second time. Carmen’s identity had also been brought up since she’d be
popr thanks to a video. The fans indeed had a keen eye, for they managed to surmise the identity of
Carmen’s father from her cute countenance. Some reckoned that she was Taylor’s daughter, while some
guessed that she was Scarlett’s daughter. In short, a myriad of spections abound. Michael didn’t reply,
knowing that it’d then all die down after they’d had their fill of gossip.
When they were in bed at night, Carmen burrowed into Sophia’s embrace and whined pitifully, “Mommy, I
miss Judgey. It won’t being back after moving, will it?” Judge had been with her since young, so she
truly missed it now that it had moved away.
“Judgey has its own home, but we can go over to its home to visit in the future,” Sophiaforted.
Carmen nestled into her arms, yet not falling asleep at once. Sophia, on the other hand, was still
scrolling through her cell phone when Michael sent a few videos to her. ying one, she then saw
herself. Michael’s voice sounded in the video though he didn’te into view. “12 weeks pregnant.
Mommy is healthy, and pregnancy is progressing normally. She even gained weight.” That was Sophia a
little over three years ago. She was lying on the sofa with a nightgown, watching television when Michael
walked in with his cell phone, filming her. Judge was sprawled beside her, and she stuck her tongue out
at the camera while stroking the dog’s head.
“11 weeks pregnant. Baby and mommy are both healthy. Pregnancy is progressing well.”
“10 weeks pregnant. Mommy is healthy and even has a bit of morning sickness.”
And so it went on.
When she was pregnant, he filmed her every week to keep a journal. As she watched her stomach grow
increasingly bigger in the video, her heart filled with happiness and warmth. s, I’ve forgotten
everything! I’ve forgotten how I gave birth to Carmen and how satisfied and blissful I was when she was
in my stomach. While I’ve forgotten the past, I can still cherish the present! Putting down her cell phone,
she pecked Carmen on the cheek before turning off the lights and going to sleep.
The next day, Faye’s studio issued a statement, epting Scarlett’s apology. The day after, Calvin, the
lawyer Michael retained, went over to negotiate thepensation with Faye. Faye’swyer made a list
of numerous damages, to which thepensation totaled up to over 50 million. Faye revealed to the
public that she merely makes one to two billion a year when she made it to the top five highest-paid
actresses in Cethos, and it has only been a few days since she was bitten by the dog. As she’s injured
on her thigh, it’s true that she can’t film any action flicks, but she can still film sedate movies.
Furthermore, her shampoo, perfume, and jewelry advertisements are all the more unaffected. A flesh
wound only takes a month at most to heal, so how could her damages amount to 50 million? However,
herwyer swore that this was her unvarnished ie, iming that she made 50 million a month.
Calvin brought the list back to Sophia. After looking at it, Sophia signed the agreement, and the
compensation was swiftly wired over.
When Faye received the exorbitantpensation of 50 million, she counted the money happily, never
once expecting that before she’d finished counting it, the subsequent events had developed beyond her
imagination.
