âI checked and found that Beyoncé Michel died suddenly more than 40 years ago. There is no photograph of her, but the time of her sudden death coincided with the time Uncle Cooperâs mother appeared.â
This was a major discovery. Michael took the photo of Cooperâs mother that Sean found and looked at it;
she was a white woman.
Meanwhile, Sean continued to analyze, âThe Michel Family is very xenophobic. Even women of the family are not allowed to marry outside the family, and their husbands must marry into and live with the brideâs family. Assuming that Beyoncé, the daughter of the family head, fell in love with someone who was over fifty years old from the East, she probably had a fight with her family in order to marry this man.
After succeeding in leaving with that man, from then on she broke ties with her family completely and changed her name, while the family declared that she was dead. At the same time, Old Master Mitchell brought back a foriegn girl from overseas. Everything makes sense.â
The man Beyoncé fell in love with was Old Master Mitchell. In her early twenties, she fell in love with a fifty-year-old man. Thus, the family must have been extremely opposed to it. However, she still followed Old Master Mitchell without hesitation. From then on, the Michel Family and the Mitchell Family became enemies.
âI have checked the Mitchell Familyâs foreign marriage and transactions and found that the Michel Family and the Mitchell Family have almost zero exchange, and never had any business contacts although they are both global electronics giants!â
Michael frowned upon hearing Seanâs report. Things were getting clearer and clearer. Beyoncé was Cooperâs mother, and Cooperâs grandfather was the former family head of the Michel Family.
Many years after Beyoncé married and went to the East, the old family head of the Michel Family fell seriously ill. He thought of his daughter and sent someone to investigate her, only to find out of the existence of his grandsonâCooper.
Outsiders didnât know the ins and outs of this matter, but Cooper and Fass were seeming to be more and more like the same person! If Seanâs inference was correct, it would prove why Cooper, a foreigner, could become the family head of the Michel Family.
âNow if you can get the DNA of the Michel family, maybeâ¦â Michael frowned as he said. Beyoncé had died more than 40 years ago, so it was a bit difficult to investigate her. However, the Michel Family was big and powerful. If they could get a comparison of the DNA of one or two of them and compare it with Cooper or Sophiaâ¦
Sean smiled mysteriously and took out a sealed evidence bag from his pocket which contained a few blonde hairs. âUncle, can we use Linusâ hair?â
In the restaurant, the dishes were served one after another. Everyone had arrived and the wine was set.
Stanley and Sean drank alcohol while Michael drank milk. Meanwhile, Sophia and Nathan went aside to feed the cats. The four big orange cats rushed to eat the cat food dramatically.
After Stanley and Sophia discussed, they decided that Sunsetâs pair of orange cats should be raised by Stanley. Meanwhile, Michael had to pay a monthly maintenance fee which was equivalent to a bottle of Cethosian wine, and had to promise to endorse their online games.
After the cat issue had been settled, everyone chatted with each other while having their meal. âSophia, your new godbrother and I have recently cooperated on a project!â Stanley chirped.
Thinking of how she shamefully took Linus as her godbrother that day, Sophia felt so embarrassed that she badly wanted to dig a hole and hide forever. âYou shouldâve stopped me but instead you kicked up a fuss!â While speaking, she was watching Michael discreetly but saw that he did not look upset at all.
However, Stanley countered, âThat man is the second in command of the Michel Family. Youâre so blessed to become online friends with a domineering president. Iâm helping you, donât you know that?â
Sophia mumbled to herself, but in the end chose to keep quiet.
After talking about Linus, they started talking about school again and Stanley commented, âSophia, youâre already earning so much money. What do you want the 8,000 scholarship for? The National Scholarship is only 8,000 a year and you spend more than that amount of money in the game.â
Sean laughed and teased, âStanley, you donât understand the minds of top students at all. This is about honor, alright?â
Sophia lifted her chin proudly. Yes, the honor of a top student. In her freshman year, Sophia studied very hard. She participated in many competitions one after another and won many certificates, not for the money, but for the honor! There was only one person per school who would win that scholarship! Iâll get the scholarship for sure!
After dinner, Stanley discussed with Sophia in detail about raising Sunset. First, he must determine the cat responsible for impregnating her. There were four big orange cats in Sophiaâs house, two of which were male cats. Thus, it would not be easy for him to find out which cat was the father.
Meanwhile, Sean had already entered the study with Michael. Abel had prepared the documents and also appeared in the study. Seeing Abel, Sean was very excited. He hurriedly took a few steps forward in excitement and wanted to call out Abelâs real name, but in the end chose to respect his request and said, âAbel, whatâs the result?â
Abel glanced at Sean, then at Michael, before saying, âIâm sorry, but I canât confirm it.â
Sean had originally looked forward to hearing his results, but after hearing this, he lost hope.
âThe Michel Family is so big so I may not be able to verify their relationship even if they were from the same familyâ¦â
Sean left the study rather disappointed. After he left, Michael asked, âWhatâs going on?â
He had been working with Abel for many years, so he knew that Abel was hiding something just by looking at his expression. After Abel confirmed that Sean had long been gone, he closed the door and then took out the comparison documents he had hastily gathered.
âThis is a bit troublesome. Linus is the twin brother of your Chica, and is also Cooperâs son. The DNA of the three is perfectly matched.â
Therefore, Abel didnât explain it to Sean just now, so as not to get him over-excited.
Meanwhile, Michael was not surprised to hear this news. From the beginning, his sixth sense told him so.
When Linus appeared, he felt that he seemed familiar for some unknown reason.
That night, when they went out to have fun, he became even more suspicious when they learned that Linus and Sophia were born in the same year, the same month and even the same day. Linus really was Cooperâs son! He had completely inherited all of Cooperâs talents!
What happened that year? Does it mean that Cooper already knew about the existence of Annabelâs twins and was the first to find his son Linus? But why did he find his son but not his daughter? Or is it just a coincidence that he searched for Linus? Perhaps he didnât even know that Linus is his son, which is why they addressed each other as brothers? What kind of attitude should I have when I see Linus? What are the consequences after I go meet him?
The next day, Sophia arrived at university early as it was the day when the school announced the winner of the National Scholarship. Every top student in school was looking forward to it. That small scholarship award sum was really nothing to look forward to. Eight thousand a year was nothing for Sophia, who had billions. What she wanted was the glory of being at the top of the list.
Imagine competing with thousands of academics in Bayside University, the highest-ranking academic institution with countless talented students, for the scholarship. It felt like all of them were fighting for territory and Sophia was one of the ancient princes. No one could predict who would be victorious in the end. However, Sophia had a high probability of winning. Her participation in the Esports World Championship would definitely give her a boost, much less other competitions.
âThe result is here!â
The staff came over with a crimson paper. All major events of Bayside University were written in black calligraphy on red paper and pasted on the bulletin board.
