Chapter 931
It was then that the doorbell suddenly rang.
Cooper figured that the dinner from Golden Restaurant had arrived. Since the ring had interrupted the amorous
atmosphere, he climbed up from Sally before going to get the door.
At the same time, Sally tucked her fringes aside before strolling up to the dining room and taking her seat.
Taking into consideration that Sally should have something nutritious to help with her recovery, he ordered steak
and mushroom soup for her.
Tearing up the plastic wrap, Sally retrieved the cutlery inside. “With regard to what happened at the cruise ship, I
had my men leak fake information to Armand. This is something I haven't shared with him yet.”
Cooper turned his head to look at her. “Being Genev's bodyguard isn't your true goal at all.”
Cognizant of how intelligent Cooper was, Sally didn't deny it. “The Carlo family will make a move on Genevieve
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtagain. Also, their core members must be in Jadeborough too.”
“Are you using Genev as bait?” Cooper's expression darkened abruptly.
Stuffing a piece of steak into her mouth, Sally maintained an icy expression. “I'll do my best to protect her.”
Before anger overwhelmed Cooper, she added, “The Carlo family are relentless when it comes to killing their
enemies. Regardless of how capable Armand is, he still has a lot of responsibilities and can't be by Genevieve's side
all the time. Therefore, in contrast to having five to six bodyguards follow her everywhere or not being able to
travel overseas due to the fear of having her safety threatened, my plan is the most effective one of all.”
Cooper knew that Sally never told Armand about it because he would never agree to let Genevieve act as bait.
“The bait doesn't necessarily have to be Genev.” Cooper, too, wouldn't put her in danger. “Considering that the
Carlo family tried to kill me in broad daylight, they clearly harbor just as much animosity toward me.”
Sally burst into laughter. “Cooper, I'm impressed by how sharp you are.”
Instead of replying, he flatly remarked, “Going forward, you should stay by my side so that we can investigate the
Carlo family together. As for Genev, I'll get Armand to arrange a different bodyguard for her.”
“Since I'm going to protect you from now on, I'll have no choice but to live here with you.”
No sooner had Cooper furrowed his brows than his phone rang. It was Bertilla on the line, checking on why he
hadn't reached the office yet.
It was then that Cooper remembered he was due in the office to handle some matters.
After glancing at the time, he told Bertilla it was getting late and he would take care of them tomorrow morning. As
for the staff that worked overtime, he gave them the next day off.
After the call, Cooper sent Bertilla another message: Send me the pictures of the male hosts at Imperial Club.
At the other end of the line, Bertilla was shocked.
Not only did her boss not return to the office, he even requested pictures of male hosts. Thus, it was hard for her
not to let her imagination run wild.
Nonetheless, she didn't dare question him unnecessarily as she slipped off to check with the club manager.
After dinner, Cooper received a bunch of pictures from Bertilla. He curated a few of them before forwarding them
to Sally.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen the latter checked her phone, she realized it was from Cooper.
“I've sent you pictures of the most desirable male hosts at Imperial Club.” Cooper had seen through Sally from the
very beginning but was in no mood to play along. “Whenever you feel lonely, you can go see them. Regardless of
whether it's a one-night stand or a kept boy, it's on the house.”
Slamming the phone on the table, she glared at Cooper with a grim expression.
As if he was oblivious to the look on her face, Cooper continued, “You'll sleep here tonight. Tomorrow, I'll get
someone to buy the unit next door as a gift for you.”
With that, he turned around and walked toward his bedroom.
After spending the entire day with the children at the water theme park, Cooper was exhausted and wanted to rest
early. After all, he still had to go to work the next day.
Upon emerging from his walk-in closet after getting his pajamas, he realized Sally had already entered his room.
Without a word, she pushed him back into the walk-in closet. Despite her slender figure, the force she generated
was enough for him to stagger backward before falling down onto the carpet.
Smoothly straddling herself on top of him, she pulled out a belt from one of the drawers and swiftly tied his hands
up.
