Chapter 1205 Just Like Quinton
- A loud sigh came from behind Sophia as Linus patted her shoulder before resting his arm on it. “Dad still can’t forget about her,” he stated. He saw the video himself, and he knew how cruel fate had been toward their mother. Her memories had been stolen from her.
- Sophia glanced toward the direction where Cooper had walked off and zoned out for a while before she turned back to Linus. “That fiancée of Dad’s that they were talking about on the call earlier… What was that all about?” Linus maintained his neutral expression upon the mention of Cooper’s fiancée. “You know how it is. Dad’s handsome, rich, and tall; the women who are interested in him could probably form a whole line all the way from here to the Eiffel Tower. It’s pretty common for there to be a few women who are a little more aggressive.”
- The siblings later walked out of Villa No. 2 and headed toward Villa No. 8 for lunch while Linus continued to talk about Cooper’s fiancée. Apparently, 20 years ago, the family head of the Michel Group found out that he was ill and realized that he didn’t have long to live. The old man then thought of his daughter, Beyoncé, who had gotten married to an Easterner and hadn’t kept in contact with him since. He ordered for someone to hunt her down, only to find out that his daughter had been dead for years. He also found out that he had a grandson, Cooper, who was practically a carbon copy of him—they shared the same skills and boldness. Back then, the Michel Group still appeared to be grand and impressive, but the old family head found out that they were deep in debt after he fell ill. The family members were all scheming against one another, and the Michel Family, which had existed for thousands of years, was at risk of falling apart. There were several other financial groups back then that were equally powerful; they could have taken over the Michel Group anytime. The old family head didn’t manage to find a suitable successor back then, as he simply couldn’t see anyone in the family having enough power to turn the tides to get them out of their predicament. His grandson, Cooper, was therefore the perfect heir. Furthermore, as a dying man himself, the old family head longed to take a look at his Easterner grandson. He therefore invited Cooper over to the Michel Group for a secret meetup.
