Chapter 1166

Hurrying over, the young man greeted Cooper and Sally.

It was the young man Robert had pulled strings for. The young man's father, once Robert's subordinate, had died in

an accident, leaving him and his mother to fend for themselves.

The young man had wanted to join the army when he turned eighteen. However, due to a previous brain injury, he

did not fit the requirements.

Noticing that the young man was steadfast and unyielding, and because he had a good relationship with his father,

Robert falsified his medical report and let him join the army.

This was what Robert had instructed Edward to do.

After being threatened by the Gaudette family, Edward sold Robert out and exposed the latter for pulling strings for

the young man. As a result, the young man was immediately disqualified from joining military service.

Since the young man was powerless to help Robert, he returned home. It wasn't until a few days ago that he

returned to Jadeborough after being brought in by Cooper's men.

Sally had not expected the item Cooper said he had gotten the other night to be evidence of Edward's

embezzlement. He had even gotten the young man to come over.

She stared at Cooper, her lips moving as if she had something to say to him.

Glancing at his watch. Cooper said, “Bring these items in to them. There's something else we need to take care of.”

“All right.” That said, Sally pivoted and entered the inspection bureau.

Afterward, Cooper brought Sally to the court. The Zeigler family's military attorney was already there. Representing

Robert, the lawyer filed an appeal against his embezzlement case.

Fortunately, the Gaudette family was unable to bring the inspection bureau to their side.

That was the reason why the inspection bureau immediately investigated Edward and discovered his

embezzlement. Since he had met with his demise, his property was sequestrated, and the case was suddenly the

talk of the town in the political sphere.

The court also reopened Robert's case.

The young man's physician testified to the judge that the former's brain injury was minor and that it left no side

effects.

The lawyer provided plenty of evidence. He'd even appealed to their emotions, stating that the young man's father

had given his life for the country. On the last day of the month, the court finally ruled that Robert was found not

guilty.

It was New Year's Eve, so it would be a new year after that.

Cooper and the two children had their New Year's Eve dinner at the Zeigler residence while Sally went to pick up

Robert from prison.

Having just returned from Baykeep, Stefan joined Sally and Robert at Golden Restaurant for their New Year's Eve

dinner.

Sally, who was occupying the window seat, happened to glance out of the window and noticed that it was snowing

once again.

Unable to visit the prison, she wondered how her father was doing. She also wondered if Cooper and the others

were having their New Year's Eve dinner.

It was around ten o'clock at night when they finally concluded dinner. Sally sent Robert home and had Stefan stay

with him.

In the meantime, she headed to Cooper's condominium.

Fireworks would occasionally bloom in the dark night sky. They were incredibly beautiful.

As she stared at the fading fireworks and the empty room, Sally's heart felt hollow. She could not resist the urge to

call Cooper.

It took some time before Cooper finally answered the phone. “Hello?”

Sally asked, “Have you had your New Year's Eve dinner?”

“We finished half an hour ago. We're currently watching the celebrations on television. What about you?” Cooper

murmured.

“We just finished too. Thank you for your help.”

The restaurants everywhere were jam-packed that night. If Cooper had not been a regular at Golden Restaurant

and called in a favor with the restaurant's owner, Sally and the others would not have been able to dine there.

After a brief interval, Cooper asked, “Did you call me just to thank me?”

Biting her lower lip, Sally glanced at the floor-to-ceiling window. Another burst of fireworks blossomed in the night

sky. “There are fireworks here. They're beautiful.”

I miss you.

Sally was unable to bring herself to utter the words.

After all, she tended to be cold and could never speak such mushy words. Besides that, Cooper was not her lover.
