Chapter 1145

Sally explained to Cooper, “Sean has a university classmate who works in Lostaria's judicial system. The guy's a

prosecutor and is pretty chummy with the police.”

Cooper's gaze appeared thoughtful as he nudged his glasses. He muttered, “So that's how the Gaudette family

found out about Armand and Genev's accident so quickly and spread the news to General Zeigler.”

He surmised, “Perhaps Genev never planned to die with Zephyr. Someone else could've prepared the explosives on

the cruise ship.”

Sally argued coolly, “Only Genevieve and Zephyr were privy to their agreed meeting on the cruise ship. She had

sent Frank a scheduled e-mail telling him that she had never considered the possibility of remaining alive after

boarding the cruise ship.”

Her words caused Cooper's chest to tighten painfully, and he could not help but massage his temples to soothe his

nerves.

Amid their conversation, someone suddenly knocked on the restroom door.

Josephine's voice drifted through the door. “Are you in here, Mr. Sutton?”

“Yes.” Cooper continued, “What's the matter?”

Josephine replied, “Oh, nothing. I just realized you had been in the restroom for a long time. Do you need my help?”

Cooper glanced at Sally, who buttoned up her uniform jacket while facing the mirror, looking utterly unperturbed.

He massaged his temples again before replying to Josephine, “My secretary sent me several documents to look

through. Go ahead and play a few rounds of golf without me. I'll be there soon.”

“Sure.” The sound of footsteps gradually receded into nothingness. Josephine appeared to have left.

Cooper leaned against the sink and shot Sally a hooded gaze. “Now that everything's done, can I skip out on dinner

with Josephine?”

Expressionlessly, Sally replied, “She visits this golf course more frequently than you visit a bar. She pretended to be

a newbie in the sport the whole day to drag out your date to dinner. She's definitely hoping for something more to

happen.”

“Something more?” Cooper's eyes narrowed dangerously.

Sally turned around and zipped up his golf jacket. She added meaningfully, “Josephine's boyfriend's father is the

head of the city's education department. She hasn't split up with her beau yet. If she lands herself in a scandal, both

her father and her boyfriend's father would be burned by the news.”

Realizing her intentions, Cooper flung her hand away and stared at her drily. “Are you suggesting I take this act to

the extreme and bed Josephine?”

“Would you dare?” Sally returned his stare with a piercing gaze.

“What about my reputation?”

Sally retorted nonchalantly, “You're no stranger to romance scandals. It'll hardly hurt your reputation. In fact, I can

still find news on your old flings online.”

After a pause, she added, “I would've done it myself if Josephine were into women.”

Cooper's expression darkened with fury. Eventually, he stormed out of the restroom without further protest.

Just after six the next morning, Josephine's boyfriend, Yannick Nordern, received a video on his phone.

Yannick rushed to Langfield Hotel in a huff and kicked open the door of a certain suite. His gaze immediately landed

on a stark- naked Josephine sleeping with another man.

A crowd of reporters swarmed into the room after him.

With that, news of Edward Carter's daughter cheating on her partner made the headlines of every tabloid.

Despite Jadeborough authorities' best efforts to suppress the news, even going as far as threatening major media

networks, it was no match for the all-knowing internet, and the scandal spread like wildfire across town.

Edward's cheeks stung with embarrassment as he called the elder Mr. Nordern to apologize for his daughter's

effrontery.

Both men were in influential positions in the city and were currently the talk of the town.

Despite being the other party involved in the scandal, Cooper was spared from everyone's gossip on account of his

colorful history.

Edward reproached Josephine after spending his day trying to stamp out his daughter's mortifying scandal.

By then, Lucian had activated the bugging software planted in Josephine's phone and heard every scathing remark

Edward directed at his daughter. He even heard the sound of Edward throwing a teacup at Josephine.

The young woman's voice had gone hoarse from crying, yet she remained silent for fear of agitating her father

further.

After Edward ended his lengthy reprimand, Cooper said to Lucian, “Luc, see if you can hack into Edward's phone

now.”
