Chapter 1126
Cooper then brought Tiffany and the kids to a Ferropenian restaurant that he booked.
The restaurant had a Christmas tree, festive decorations, and even a live band performing Christmas songs.
All of that combined made the atmosphere very romantic.
Tiffany had dined in fancy restaurants before, but it was her first time having the entire place reserved. Wow, this
feels so dreamy! It's as though I'm dining in a castle!
“Do you like Ferropenian cuisine? If not, we can go for something else,” Cooper asked.
Tiffany flashed him a shy smile. “It's delicious.”
After dinner, Cooper brought Tiffany shopping at a mall. Because the mall was a subsidiary of Specter Corporation,
she was allowed to take anything she wanted while Cooper footed all the bills.
When they were done shopping, Cooper dropped the kids back at Swallow Garden before sending Tiffany home.
Upon arriving at her house, Cooper got out of the car and opened the door for her. “I think I quite enjoy your
company, Ms. Yerton. What about you? What do you think of me?”
Timothy glanced at his handsome face and lowered her head as she replied, “I enjoy your company too, Mr.
Sutton.”
“In that case, how about we get married as soon as possible? I'll come pick you up at ten tomorrow morning, and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwe'll go pick out our wedding rings. What do you say?” Cooper asked with a smile.
Tiffany froze for a few seconds before nodding with her face all red. “Okay.”
“Good night,” Cooper said as he got back into his car.
Amanda was still awake by the time Cooper returned to Swallow Garden. She ran up to him the moment he came
in through the front door and asked, “Uncle Cooper, are you trying to win Ms. Yerton over?”
Cooper nodded and handed the housekeeper his coat as he replied, “We'll go pick out wedding rings tomorrow.”
“Whoa! That fast?” Amanda's eyes went wide with shock. “But you two have only met once, right? I thought...”
Cooper arched an eyebrow at her. “Hmm?”
“N-Never mind!” Amanda covered her mouth with one hand and waved at him with the other.
It started snowing again on Christmas.
Because they were going to pick out their wedding rings, Tiffany dolled herself up before leaving the house. “You
look very beautiful,” Cooper complimented her when he came to pick her up.
He then drove her to a Harry Winston jewelry store located in Jadeborough.
The store manager escorted them into a VIP room and brought them dozens of beautiful diamond rings to choose
from.
Cooper flashed her a gentle smile and said, “Try them all out and pick the one you like.”
Tiffany blushed and nodded in response.
While waiting for her to pick out a ring, the screen of Cooper's phone lit up as he received a call from his assistant.
He then excused himself and left the VIP room to answer the phone, “What is it?”
“Ms. Loake has been arrested,” Bertilla replied.
Bertilla was busy working at the office when Sally called him and told him to bail her out.
As Sally and Cooper were close, Bertilla decided to do as he was told.
However, the policemen refused to let Bertilla bail her out as he wasn't related to her in any way. That was why he
had no choice but to call Cooper for help.
“What did she get arrested for?” Cooper asked with a frown.
“Ms. Loake was having a drink at a bar last night. There happened to be a drug deal going on, and one of the
dealers put the drugs in her coat, which was stored in the locker. The police found the drugs in her coat and
arrested her on the spot. Her prints weren't found on the bag, but the lack of surveillance cameras in the locker
room made it hard for her to prove her innocence. The police are still treating her as a suspect at the moment.
Should we try to help her out, Mr. Sutton?”
“The Loake family is in shambles. Someone is obviously setting Sally up to get her locked up in prison as well. How
are we going to help her out? Through Specter Corporation? “Cooper asked.
When the Loake family was still in power, Sally could easily cause lots of problems for Specter Corporation's
branches overseas. Back then, Cooper often had his hands full because of her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was near impossible for civilians to win against government officials, after all.
Realizing his mistake, Bertilla quickly apologized, “I'm sorry, Mr. Sutton. I should've informed you the moment Ms.
Loake called me.”
Cooper simply hung up the phone without saying a word.
He then stood in the hallway and thought long and hard about it. By the time he returned to the VIP room, Tiffany
had chosen a ring and asked him if it looked good on her.
“Yeah, it looks great,” Cooper replied as he whipped out a credit card and handed it to the store manager.
“Thanks for taking good care of my niece and nephew at school. This ring is a present to show my gratitude,”
Cooper told her while the store manager processed the payment.
Sensing that something was off about his choice of words, Tiffany stared at him in confusion.
“If you look me up on the internet, you'll see that I'm not exactly a good guy. I don't think I'd make a good husband
for you,” Cooper added.
Tiffany wasn't sure why he changed his mind all of a sudden. “I-It's fine—”
Cooper cut her off, “No, it's not. You're a teacher, and I don't want to ruin your future. Please forget what I said last
night and just accept this ring as a gift.”
The store manager then returned the credit card, and Cooper left immediately after.
