My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 1298

Seems like Stanley is at his sexual prime!

Even if it’s only such a short period, he also made full use of it to have a quickie.

After Stanley came out and sat on his seat, Christine sat beside him. He patted Money’s butt expectantly as he said, “Buck up and have a few more kids! Next year, I’ll send you an entire set of Pourl’s items.”

Michael was listening to their conversation intently, but it was too noisy there, so he only heard ‘a few more kids’. With that, he quickly sent a message in the Fletcher Family’s group chat.

‘Stan is planning to have kids next year, and he even wants a few of them.’

After he finished typing, he raised his head and looked around, but he didn’t see Sean. He already sent an invitation to him, but he was not here.

In the end, Christine was the one who sat in Sean’s seat.

Sigh! That idiot…

After Sean has stayed around him for around 20 years, there have been no improvements whatsoever in their relationship at all. Even if another 20 years passed, the situation would probably remain the same. It would be better for Sean to give up on him.

…

On the other hand, Sarah stroked the dogs as she watched the show. She already brought out both the huge poodles that belong to her and Sophia. The two dogs looked as huge as two weightlifters as they sat on the ground, and she took turns in petting them.

Harry was also enjoying the show next to her. After a while, Betsy appeared again. She had been lingering around Harry all the time, but this time around, she was scared off by the two huge dogs.

Tiffany continued to pester Cooper by lingering by his side. To an outsider, she was a sexy and mysterious beauty, but in front of Cooper, she was just a lowly servant who was willing to do anything for him.

Cooper was very annoyed at her. The seats are limited, and her bosoms are so big! They almost need another seat on their own. This space is cramped enough!

Hence, he placed Cash between him and Tiffany to make her stop sticking herself to him for a while.

However, she continued to stay beside him, and she even threw occasional glances at Anna, as if she was trying to show off.

In the end, I’ll be the one who will get Cooper’s love.

Anna is already married, yet she still wants to be his mistress! That old b*tch! Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

The show was over in no time, but many people didn’t seem to want to leave, so they stayed to chat with the founders.

Surrounded by a group of rich women who had dogs as pets, Sophia could only watch as Lucy left. After all, she herself was unable to leave.

I was planning to discuss working together with her….

Unexpectedly, she received Lucy’s message the next morning. “Since the fashion week ends today, let’s chill and relax. I’ll meet you at the same spot tonight.”

The next evening, there were not many people in front of a little bar that was located in the suburbs. It was a quiet and secluded spot.

Even though the bar looked tattered, it was well-decorated inside. No matter how daring the gangsters were, they wouldn’t dare to make a scene here as the place was owned by Lucy and Dana, who lived close by.

This bar had become the spot for Lucy and Sophia to occasionally drink at. At this moment, Michael was having a staredown contest with Dana, who parked opposite to him. Parked close to each other, they had no other method of entertainment apart from that.

Dana smoked a cigarette while Michael took out his laptop to play some games. Stanley’s company had rolled out another new game, so he took this time to play it and test it internally while waiting for the people in the bar to finish their meeting.

“Cheers!”

Two cocktail glasses clinked into each other, making a crisp and clear sound.

After both of them drank a little, they put down the glasses.

In the dark corner, the lights were beautiful yet dim, making Sophia unable to see Lucy’s expression.

She was thinking about the ideal way to tell Lucy about teaming up to deal with Jordan.

However, after a long time, she had no idea how to breach the topic.

How should I put this?

My dad and your stepmom have a fling, and he wants to kill your dad to take over all his assets. Do you want to join us to kill him?

Cooper probably wouldn’t want the money from the Edwards Family, but based on Anna’s personality, after they killed Jordan, she would definitely make both her sons the legitimate inheritors of the Edwards Family and take over the Edwards Group. Meanwhile, she would also try to get rid of Lucy.

On top of that, Sophia couldn’t guarantee what would happen if Lucy actually teamed up with Cooper. Perhaps Anna might kill her in the end.

After thinking about it, Sophia still didn’t utter a word. However, she knew she must give it a try in case Lucy was interested.

In the end, she would definitely speak for Lucy so that they would distribute the assets of the Edwards Family equally. As the first child of the family, Sophia’s words still had some weight.

Unexpectedly, before she even started speaking, Lucy suddenly said, “I might resign and leave Edwards Group this year.”

Though Sophia was shocked, she was happy to hear that, yet she quickly asked, “Why?”

Lucy shrugged and said helplessly, “Well, you can see it yourself—with the addition of four ambitious brothers and the old practice of Edwards Group of passing legacies down to males… When I was the only child, they could only pass it to me. However, everything is different now.”

When she was saying this, Sophia, who was sitting close to her, could feel her grievances. It was as if she was holding all her emotions in when she said that.

When Lucy was in her teens, she had already started taking part in their family business. She started from the foundation and slowly rose through the ranks through accumulated hard work and effort before she reached her current position. The Edwards Group business grew with her and became

better as time passed. She was one of the reasons for the success that the Edwards Group had achieved today.

However, she now had to leave just like that, while the decades of effort that she had put in were all for others. How would Lucy be satisfied with this?

She took a sip of the cocktail and swallowed it along with her grievances.

Sophia didn’t expect that Edwards Group would still practice the patriarchal culture. In fact, it was not just them—many traditional businesses in Cethos also retained the old traditions. Forget Cethos—even the Michel Family requested for women to retain their last names if they got married, even if they were the top in the military, medicine, and technology industry.

However, Sophia still felt glad when she heard this news. Once Lucy left the Edwards Group, she wouldn’t have to compete with Anna. On the other hand, Sophia also felt unfair for her to retreat from this feud just like this.

“What are your future plans?” she asked.

Lucy was slightly tipsy at this point, but she exuded a different type of attractiveness. “I don’t want to leave the Edwards Group, but I understand their ambitions. Rather than fighting with them formally or secretly, it’s better to resign and leave with the shares.” She suddenly smiled at Sophia. “I’m planning to be like Sam—I want to start another business from scratch myself.” She had a blissful smile as she looked forward to the future. “Dana and I plan to get married abroad; we want to invest and migrate to another country. Then, we will start our business there. Dana also mentioned that she wants to expand Winston Corporation abroad, and I’m also planning to help her out…”

She had never been so talkative like she was today as she talked about her future plans with Sophia.

Initially, she had planned to officially announce her relationship with Dana after she had stabilized the Edwards Family so that no one could object. However, Jordan suddenly announced that he was going to marry Anna. The sudden arrival of a powerful stepmother and four capable step brothers had caught her off guard. If she wanted to be with Dana, it would be her alone versus six of them, which would make it too difficult for her to fulfil her dreams.

Apart from that, Jordan’s departure had also inspired her.

I can leave the Edwards Family as well!

Even though I’d have to give away my effort all these years to others, I have the money, resources, and connections—I have everything I need to start my own business and not be restricted by anyone else!

I don’t want to be the successor of the Edwards Family anymore!
