Chapter 1226 The Thought Of It Makes Me Sick
As Jerry gazed at the rooftop garden of the mansion, he analyzed the situation and said, “Didn't you say Zeke is
working with the Gaudette family, and you want to find a way to take him down?”
“Zeke is not a fool,” Cooper replied. “He might have been involved in framing Gerald. Now that Gerald has been
acquitted, Zeke is probably afraid Gerald will come knocking on his door to settle the score. Do you think he'd let his
son interact with Sally?”
“Why not?” Jerry threw the question back at him. “You also said that it's just a possibility, which means Gerald might
not even be able to find evidence. Otherwise, how would Zeno be able to be intimate with Sally? If his son can take
Sally as his wife, Zeke and the Gaudette family would be over the moon.”
Zeke was clearly on the Gaudette family's side. Hence, if Zeno married Sally, the Gaudette family and the Loake
family would become one big family. By then, the Loake family would take the Gaudette family's side too.
To Zeke, the benefits of their marriage would far outweigh the risks.

be committing bigamy.”
Jerry teased, “You weren't even this angry when your sister died. Do you know what you look like right now?” He
tutted.
Cooper glowered at him.
“Okay, I'll stop.” Jerry knew Cooper was extremely stubborn. Even if he did fall for Sally, there was no way he would
admit it.
After finishing his conversation with Cooper, Jerry went to the banquet hall to do some wine tasting.
Cooper waved a waiter over and handed him some money. “Please bring me two bottles of Château Mouton
Rothschild 1855.”
Nights during this time of the month were rather cold.
Nevertheless, the extremely frustrated Cooper still sat under an umbrella in the garden, sipping on red wine. Even
after he spent an hour in the cold, his frustration and anger still had not dissipated.
When Tiffany noticed that Cooper hadn't returned for a long time, she found out from a waiter that he was in the
garden and came looking for him.
She saw two empty bottles of red wine on the table and Cooper sitting on the rattan chair with a hand on his
forehead and his neck slightly red. He seemed to be drunk.
Tiffany approached him and held his arm. “Mr. Sutton. Let me send you home.”
Cooper was indeed a little drunk. His head was spinning, and he silently put his arm around Tiffany's shoulder as she
guided him to the car.
After the driver from the hotel came, Tiffany climbed into the backseat.
The backseat was a little narrow, and she was able to get a whiff of the scent of white cedar mixed with red wine
from Cooper. It smelled heavenly.
She turned to the side and saw Cooper leaning against the backrest with his head tilted up. He had taken off his
glasses, and he looked extremely vulnerable and sexy with his Adam's apple slightly protruding from his neck.
Feeling very attracted to him, Tiffany leaned over and put her arm around his waist. “Mr. Sutton.”

He was drunk, but she could tell from his eyes that he was still somewhat sober. Tiffany squirmed under the cold
gaze from his dark eyes, her scalp tingling.
“I don't need help.” After pushing her away, Cooper returned to leaning against the backrest. He closed his eyes
and took a short rest.
Tiffany bit her lip and didn't dare to do anything else.
Cooper told the driver to send Tiffany home first. By the time he reached Swallow Garden, it was already past one.
He went into the bathroom to take a shower. He stood under the showerhead and allowed the hot water to rain
down upon him. Whenever he closed his eyes, the scene at the rooftop garden would appear in his mind.
He recalled seeing Zeno hold Sally close to him, his hand traveling along the lines of her waist.
How dare he!
At the first light of dawn, Cooper called Jerry and said, “Ask for your friend to look into Zeno's whereabouts.”
I want to find out why Sally is trying to get close to Zeno. However, the thought of her possibly sleeping with him to
gain his trust makes me sick. I can't stand it.
