Chapter 1155
Sally called Cooper over and introduced Stefan to him. “This is my younger brother, Stefan Loake. You've probably
never met him."
Cooper swept a gaze over Stefan. The latter was still young, and his displeasure was blatantly etched across his
features. “I don't think an introduction is necessary. He knows me. He merely couldn't care less about me.”
“I never said that.” Stefan pursed his lips.
Sally had no intention of having them make conversation in the first place. She watched as Stefan left through the
revolving door before she headed toward the elevator with Cooper.
While doing so, she eyed the boxes of snacks in the man's hands. “Why did you go out and buy them by yourself?”
“The store doesn't offer delivery, but Mandy was craving their snacks. I was free, so I just made a trip there.” When
the elevator doors opened, Cooper walked in ahead of her.
After turning around to face the front, Sally pressed the button for their floor.
Out of the blue, she heard a snigger from the man. She jerked her head back and regarded him in puzzlement.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Why are you laughing?”
Cooper's thin lips curved into a sneer. "I merely feel that little boys are truly intriguing. They pull a long face in front
of outsiders but become all obedient before their sisters. It's as though everyone is picking on them.”
Aware that he was mocking her brother, Sally countered evenly, “So, you never did the same when you were
twenty years old?”
“I've got no elder sister, so I was never that childish at twenty years old,” Cooper replied.
“If you'd like to experience it, just say the word. I don't mind having another younger brother.” Sally had her arms
crossed, her indifferent voice threaded with a teasing hint.
Cooper's brows furrowed. “Stop grossing me out.”
When Steven saw Cooper and Sally coming back together, he asked whether they would like to go to the Zeigler
residence for dinner that night. In response, Cooper said that they would only be going tomorrow after visiting
Herbert at the hospital.
Steven could only put his down jacket back on before leaving.
Cooper had reserved a presidential suite with two luxurious bedrooms. Sally wasn't worried that it would be unsafe
for Amanda and Lucian to sleep together.
The bright bathroom was filled with steam, and two figures were lying in a tangle of limbs in the bathtub.
Cooper was extraordinarily aggressive, so much so that Sally was gripped by the urge to break his arm.
Her hair was all drenched and stuck to her cheeks. Panting, she snapped irritably, “Go and seek my brother out if
you don't like him. Why are you taking it out on me?”
“Don't you defend him quite staunchly?” Switching their positions, Cooper hoisted her onto his lap.
He lifted his hand and brushed the hair off her cheeks, snickering softly. “Kids will always be kids. He couldn't even
mask his emotions. Couldn't you tell at all?”
Because of the steam, Sally's cheeks were slightly flushed. Despite that, her voice remained relatively detached.
“He is a Loake.”
“Just in name. He isn't your biological brother.” Even if they were related by blood, I reckon he wouldn't care
anyway.
Cooper was displeased. His hand that had dropped down returned to her waist once more.
Sally's entire body went limp, and she almost collapsed on the man. The knuckles of her hand clutching at his

Cooper merely chuckled softly.
Seeing that his hair was also soaked and plastered against his forehead, Sally found him to be seemingly far gentler
at that moment compared to the times a sense of menace and aloofness emanated off him whenever he wore
glasses.
The illumination of the lights rendered his narrow eyes mesmerizing.
They made Sally's apathetic heart pound wildly. She couldn't help leaning forward and gently kissing the corner of
his eye.
Sensing her tenderness, Cooper asked lightly, “You're reminded of your man?”
“Aren't you my man?” Sally chuckled.
Cooper's mood took a turn for the better. “If there's no restriction on Stefan, send him abroad sometime soon.”
Sally furrowed her brows. “But he has never been abroad since young.”
“Isn't it good, then? He can go out there and get used to life,” Cooper said nonchalantly.
In truth, the recollection of the look in Stefan's eyes when they were in the lobby of the hotel earlier made him
exceedingly ill at ease. He added, “One day, something will either happen to me, or you'll regret it.”
Such was the sense of foreboding lingering within him.
