Mr Cooper's taunting laugh felt like someone was making irritating sounds near Ruth's ears. If she was the older self of her, then she would have shrunk back, but this Ruth was someone that Mr Cooper was yet to meet.
Ruth was about to open her mouth when a deep voice from behind shut the old man's mouth, and his eyes popped out of their sockets in utter shock.
"Are you laughing at my soon to be wife Mr Cooper?"
The women who were watching silently, instantly stood up some even knocked down their chairs in hurry. They all bowed in greetings to the Young Master.
Edwin was never a fan of public appearances, so having his glimpse was a rare thing. But today, he deliberately chose to be present here. Because it was important for him not only because of Ruth but also because of his ego.
"Y-Young M-Master? W-welcome welcome! I... I was just... I..." Mr Cooper's face paled at the sight of Edwin entering his shop.
