Chapter 1124
Cooper had suspected Harry of murdering Dylan when the latter died. After all, Harry was far too smart for his age
and possessed a ton of skills.
In the end, Cooper was proven to be right.
Not only was Harry a computer prodigy, but he was also physically fit and agile. However, his innocent and
harmless appearance often caused others to lower their guard around him.
The look in Sally's eyes grew cold as she aggressively pulled over by the side of the road.
As Cooper turned to the side, he was met by her icy-cold gaze. “He may not be related to the Loake family by
blood, but I have always treated him like my own brother. I also promised my father before he went to prison that
I'd take good care of Stefo.”
“You didn't have to pull over just to tell me that. I'm not going to harm him while the Loake family is in shambles. I

While Cooper was indeed at fault for shooting Sally a long time ago, Stefan had also tried to kill him once, so he was
willing to call it even.
Sally pursed her lips and started the car again.
Cooper propped his chin with his palm and stared at the scenery outside the car window as he asked, “You and
Frank are the only people who know about the cruise ship explosion, right?”
Sally didn't know that Frank was an undercover police officer until she met him again in Lostaria. “I met Frank when
I was in Lostaria a few years ago. You could say we're acquainted. He wouldn't have survived working undercover
for the Leonardos if he couldn't keep a tight lid on such secrets. Besides his team members, Frank told the
Lostarian police about the mission to exterminate the three mafia gangs because he needed their help. I'm
guessing there was a mole in the police force.”
Cooper narrowed his eyes. “It was no ordinary mole, either. I bet the Gaudette family had something to do with it.”
Even Timothy didn't know about the death of Armand and his wife, and yet, word somehow managed to get to
Herbert and Beatrix.
Neither the Loake family nor the Zane family was willing to take a side, so the Gaudette family tried to set them up.
As the Zeigler family, which had a huge influence in Baykeep, refused to take a side as well, the Gaudette family
had no choice but to cause Herbert some trouble.
Sally understood what he meant. “Now that Baykeep is in chaos, the Gaudette family has no choice but to have
their own people take over. You may not know this, but the former head of the Department of Public Information
was transferred back after Armand's death. Sean is now the deputy head of department.”
Cooper turned to look at her as he asked, “Wasn't he an editor who got transferred over from Feston? How did he
end up becoming the deputy head of department?”
As excellent as Armand may have been, he would still have to gain some impressive achievements and slowly work
his way up in order to take over Robert's position.

cousins, so that makes him and Eurydice cousins too,” Sally replied calmly.
Cooper's lips curled into an icy-cold sneer as he finally understood the situation. “Oh, so he had the Gaudette family
backing him up. Heh... Looks like the Gaudette family are quite the ambitious bunch!”
So, Sean wasn't transferred over because the government in Jadeborough was short on manpower. It was the
Gaudette family that arranged for his transfer. The Department of Public Information controls the news in
Jadeborough. By having one of their own holds such a position, they could quickly suppress any news that would
cause them problems.
It was already ten by the time the two returned to the condominium.
After hanging the sweater on the rack, Cooper was about to tell Sally something when she walked past the living
room and headed straight for the guest room.
Huh... She's able to identify the guest room even without me telling her. Something doesn't seem right here...
Cooper then packed some of his clothes in his room and drove to Swallow Garden. As Steven had headed over to
Baykeep, he felt worried about leaving the kids at Swallow Garden on their own.
Before going to bed, he texted Sally asking her to send the kids to school the next morning.
If she doesn't need sympathy, then I shouldn't have to worry about asking for her help.
