Chapter 768 Meeting Again
Ronnie pretended to be deep and said, "Just so-so, just an average look, much worse than me."
Juniper laughed and said, "He's mixed-race."
"So what if he's mixed-race? Can you say he's more handsome than me?"
"Mixed-race genes have an advantage from the start. Look at his well-defined features, long arms, and legs. Many women in the company are after him."
"That's because they haven't seen me. Otherwise, he wouldn't stand a chance."
"Do you think you're the most handsome man in the world?"
Ronnie arrogantly lifted his chin, "Isn't that obvious? Be honest, who do you think is more handsome, me or him?"
"Alright, if we're just talking about looks, you're a bit better, but..."
"No buts, that's enough!" Ronnie made a stop gesture, "At least you have good taste."
"Do you think this comparison is meaningful? Is it necessary?"
"Why so annoyed? Come on, I chased after you humbly and persistently before and didn't get you, but that jerk got you so quickly. Of course, I'm not happy about it."
The jealousy was gone, but he was a very proud person and quite displeased.
"That's because he's a better person, more dedicated."
"No man is truly faithful; I'm just more honest about it. So, people like me who are real suffer. Hypocrites can deceive women."
"Do you think my boyfriend is a hypocrite?"
Ronnie frowned and reluctantly said, "Alright, maybe not a hypocrite. He seems pretty good and trusts you a lot. I told him I was your boyfriend, and he didn't believe it."
"See, I have good taste, don't I?" Juniper was a bit smug.
"He's alright. But he's still not as good as me."
He originally wanted to say, "You'll regret it later," but swallowed it back. It wasn't auspicious, and he wasn't that petty.
"Let's not talk about him anymore, drink."
"That's enough, I can't drink anymore. I have to go back to the hospital to take care of my dad."
"Such a filial child, I'm touched."
"Of course. Where are you going to play later?"
"Picking up my girlfriend."
"Which model or actress this time?"
"No, a school teacher, very pretty, very pure, great figure."
"Rare, you actually look at inner qualities." Juniper teased.
"No, I'm looking at her chest." He made an exaggerated gesture, "E!"
Juniper rolled her eyes, unable to stand it. She had indeed "misjudged" him.
In the hospital room.
Juniper was peeling an apple.
The news channel suddenly broadcasted the news of Anthony and Hera's wedding, which was in six days.
The reporter live-streamed the wedding scene, frequently exclaiming, "So luxurious," "So dreamy," "Just like a fairy tale."
Juniper's eyes trembled slightly, her movements paused briefly, then she continued.
Aaron turned off the TV, looked at her worriedly, "Are you okay?"
She shook her head and forced a smile.
"If I hadn't arranged that blind date for you back then, it wouldn't have come to this..."
"Dad, it's all in the past. Who hasn't broken up before? Besides, I have a boyfriend now, and it's going well." Juniper smiled indifferently.
But a father knows his daughter best, and Aaron could still see a hint of sadness in her eyes.
"What kind of person is your boyfriend?"
"I told you before, a colleague."
"Okay. When will you bring him to meet me?"
"Let's wait until you recover and go to Libertonia to see him, okay? Do you plan to stay in Libertonia for a while?"
Aaron waved his hand, "When I was young, I loved to explore everywhere. Now that I'm old, I don't want to go anywhere, just want to stay quietly at home."
"You think that way because you're not fully recovered yet. Once you recover, you'll want to go out again."
Aaron smiled, "Maybe, going to Libertonia to meet my future son-in-law wouldn't be bad."
He paused, then continued, "Juniper, I was wrong before, blinded by interests, forcing you into a marriage alliance. I won't interfere with your love life anymore. Even if you marry a poor guy, I'll support both of you."
Juniper smiled, "I wouldn't go so far as to marry a poor guy."
She handed him the peeled apple.
After a while, Juniper fed Aaron some soup.
Aaron drank it one sip at a time, feeling especially sweet in his heart. He looked at his daughter with a smile.
"If being sick can earn your forgiveness, then it's worth being sick a few more times."
"Don't say that, don't get sick again, stay healthy."
"I hope so too, but as I get older, there will always be problems. Who knows when... I think it's better to make a will soon, stating that the Cooper Group will be left to you."
"Dad, I don't care about the money, but I definitely don't want Grandma and Mom's hard work to fall into Elara and Saffron's hands, or they'll squander it all."
"Yes, you're right, I won't agree to that."
"Your true colors are showing. You came back for the Cooper Group and want to kick us out. How can you be so ruthless and vicious at such a young age!" Elara rushed in.
"Honey, did you hear that? She only cares about the Cooper Group. She came back for the Cooper Group, to take the opportunity to drive Saffron and me away."
Aaron coldly said, "Even if Juniper didn't come back, I made it very clear long ago, the Cooper Group has nothing to do with you."
"Why?"
"Why? Do you think you deserve it?" Juniper retorted.
"Of course. I'm your father's wife, the Mrs. Cooper of the Cooper Group. What are you?"
"Juniper is my daughter, the sole heir of the Cooper Group!" Aaron emphasized loudly.
"What about Saffron and me? Aren't we your family? Honey, you must be confused. We've taken care of you for years, and this bitch comes back, gives you a few bowls of soup, and you're bewitched?"
Elara acted heartbroken, "Does everything I did for you before mean nothing?"
"What did you do? All you do every day is play cards and spend money on dressing up!"
"Isn't she using the Cooper family's money?"
"Juniper is independent now, she relies on herself. What about you? Can you survive without the Cooper family? You can't even feed yourself."
"I..." Elara panicked. Did he mean to kick her out of the Cooper family?
"Watch your mouth, don't talk nonsense. If you piss me off, not only will you not get a share of the Cooper Group, you won't get a penny!"
Elara was so scolded that she didn't dare to speak, her face turning very ugly.
Two days later.
Aaron didn't like the smell of medicine in the hospital and insisted on being discharged. Juniper went to handle the discharge procedures for him.
Going down to the third floor, as she exited the elevator, she unexpectedly bumped into Anthony.
One looked up, the other looked down, and their eyes met perfectly in mid-air.
