Novel & Cerita Precious Cooper Husband

He had his elbow on the table between us and his temple leaning against his index finger while his ice blue eyes stared into my soul. I turned red from coughing so much, ignoring the multiple eyes turning my way. My shaking hands finally reached for a glass of water, anything to clear my airway, and three minutes of prolonged suffering later, I was fine. After catching my breath, my brows pulled together and I raised my voice, "What?!" It was my first time meeting Art Wilson. In the big year of 2026, our families were arranging our marriage. It was pretty common for wealthy families to want to keep their wealth within their circle. My older sister was still married to the man my father had p

To an outsider, they looked every bit like a powerful, happy couple. But appearances, as always, were deceptive. They approached an elderly man seated near the railing—Gavin Cooper, Bradley’s grandfather and the true authority behind Cooper Holdings. His sharp eyes scanned the hall with calculation, fingers tapping lightly against his cane. “Grandpa,” Amira greeted softly, bowing slightly. Gavin turned his head away, ignoring her completely. He then faced Bradley, his gaze hardening instantly. “The news says you drove your wife away,” he said coldly, his voice carrying unmistakable fury. “All because of this vixen.”

I had entered the venue in hope of starting a new life with him until I found out that he was getting married, but to my sister. I didn’t miss the disgust and disappointment in his eyes when I looked up. Those green eyes I got lost in used to hold so much warmth in them. Cooper and I were together for a couple of years before he proposed to marry me. He was the son of the Alpha of Drevine–also known as the West pack of Elmstone.

“Yeah, I’m fine.” The look on JD’s face told Cooper that he didn’t hide it as well as he thought he had. It wasn’t anger that looked back at him. Maybe a little hunger, after all, he was married to the woman sitting between them. The one that reminded Cooper of *her*. Of course, JD would want Dean. Honestly, he thought, who wouldn’t? But there was also understanding in the brown eyes. JD was the only one that knew what was always in Cooper’s pocket. The small band of gold that he couldn’t get rid of, couldn’t live without and couldn’t think of the woman who wore it for a short period of time without wondering what might have been.

On the screen was a photo being frantically reposted by major media outlets—on the cliffs of Santorini, Valerius was kneeling on one knee, and I was signing that marriage contract with a face full of happiness. The headline was like a sledgehammer: [Sterling Family Welcomes New Mistress, Wedding of the Century Imminent.] Caspian stared dead at the smile on my face in the photo. It was a cloudless smile he had never seen before. And Alaric was snuggled up to that man, smiling so brightly. His heart contracted violently, hurting so much he could barely breathe. "No..." His fingers pressed down so hard his knuckles turned white, almost crushing the screen.

He assumed this mysterious partner was riding my success. I smiled, while Lisa stifled a laugh in the back. She was dying to shout, 'You idiot, her husband is Connor Vale! Do you think a High Alpha works a nine-to-five?' "We agreed: my mate, my business." Zephaniah huffed, silenced by our pact. "Whatever you say." I stepped out at the gates of the estate, the scent of home already soothing me. Even if Zephaniah looked down on my "hidden" man, he would learn soon enough that my husband was no lapdog.

Whatever happens, they have their kids married and therefore can't stop crossing paths. The Coopers had returned to a low profile life. They do not want to come out publicly, especially Derrick Cooper. They are yet to know if President Lyon was finally alright and if he truly had pardoned them. Joane had spent many days weeping. She hasn't done anything wrong to Allen and he rejected her for a mistress. If she hadn't gotten an insider in Allen's mansion, she wouldn't have known he has two sons. She doesn't mind the fact that he has illegitimate children, but still chooses to go along with him. Only for him to dump her for that mistress of his.

He never thought Jessica would dig this deep. Cooper was an illegitimate son, and the hospital where Jessica had taken Edgar happened to be owned by his estranged father. However, his father had never acknowledged him as his son, and no one knew of their relationship. When Jessica initially hired Cooper to pose as her lover, her background check on him had been surface-level. So at first, she had no idea about his connection to the hospital. Now that she finally found the truth, it was far too late.

"My husband managed to secure the Award for Best CEO but chose to retire from the industry. Sigh... It's such a huge loss to Taadi's business industry!" The look on Sonnia's face resembled someone in a dreamy daze as she spoke of her husband, like a child who was starstruck at the sight of their idol. Hilda took out her phone and tapped on it before putting it down. "Do you know who Nathan Clemon is?" She asked. "Of course I know who he is. He was my husband's golden partner when they were both business men. The national duo!" Sonnia exclaimed as she covered her face with her hands to hide her flushed cheeks while reminiscing about the time when Nathan and Kyle were both in her life...

“Dear God.... What did she do." “You see Gabriel has been distracted all these months, with you of course. You're his only distraction. But today, seeing Elise and Dariel and Mr Cooper, everything clicked, his mind is something else, I can't lie... I still have goosebumps from the way he had figured everything out and of course we confirmed it from trusted sources." “There I was, thinking it was just some stupid marriage proposal... So they're really selling me off?." “Mr Cooper is willing to pay money to get you as a wife for his son but I'm not sure he would want to pay two hundred and twenty million, no offense, you're beautiful and all but Mr Cooper is too stingy."
