My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1346

Sophia was in shock. Now that Cooper was being castigated everywhere, the little children at kindergarten knew about it too.

When Sophia did not answer her, Carmen asked timidly, “Mommy, are Grandpa and Uncle Linus really bad people?”

Smiling back at her, Sophia asked, “Carmen, do you remember when you and Grandpa went to film ‘My Grandpa In Shining Armor’?”

In this year’s season of ‘My Grandpa In Shining Armor’, the grandfathers and grandchildren from celebrity families went to participate in it. Cooper joined the show with Carmen as a distinguished guest. The show’s main topic was family relations and popular science. It showed grandfathers looking after their grandchildren.

Their first filming location was at the ancient Imperial Palace, but because it was still under post-production, it had yet to be released.

It would have shown the grandfathers taking their grandchildren inside the palace to look around while helping the children learn and expand their knowledge.

Carmen was watching Sophia talk with her big and round eyes. In a gentle voice, Sophia said, “When you went into the palace, you must have seen a lot of cultural artifacts. A lot of those cultural artifacts had been stolen by bad people before. After they stole our artifacts, they even sold it at a marked-up price.”

“Your grandpa and uncle bought many of those artifacts before and donated them to museums.”

“When Grandpa released the formula for the Virs-18 antidote back then, he saved countless lives. Uncle Linus also often donates to little children who can’t afford an education, so that they can study happily.”

As Carmen listened, wonder and amazement filled her eyes.

Sophia kissed her round and chubby cheeks. “Do you think Grandpa and Uncle Linus are bad people, Carmen?”

She shook her head with conviction. “Grandpa and Uncle Linus are so heroic. When I grow up, I want to save the world just like them!”

While Sophia brushed across her forehead, Carmen took the chance to pose her other concerns. “Mommy, they also said that you and Daddy are divorced now, that Daddy already got married and has a baby somewhere else, and that he doesn’t want us anymore.”

Sophia laughed once more.

Do they have nothing better to do than come up with these absurd stories?

“How can Daddy not want us anymore? When you fell ill as a baby, he stayed up for days to look after you. You’re Daddy and Mommy’s little angel. Daddy has all the love in the world for you!”

Carmen still felt uneasy as though there were more things bothering her. After Sophia cajoled her a bit, she finally let out her troubles with a cry then revealed, “Mommy, my tooth is about to fall out. Here—look at it. Here.”

She opened her mouth through sobs and showed off her shaky tooth.

Sophia had gotten frightened when she started to cry but chuckled when she realized that it was because of a loose tooth. “It’s okay. Your teeth are supposed to fall out when you’re this big.”

Losing her baby teeth at five was a bit early, but there was nothing wrong with it.

Suddenly, Sophia recalled the data she was looking at earlier. Michel Medical Technology Company had a project titled ‘Dental Pulp Stem Cells and Organ Reconstruction’.

Through research, scientists found that baby teeth contained dental pulp stem cells that could effectively treat over two hundred diseases including Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, coronary heart disease, and more. It could even repair damaged organs.

More importantly, it was still being researched. Nonetheless, it was generally acknowledged in the medical profession and was one of the biggest discoveries of mankind. Experts at Michel Medical Technology Company even proposed that dental pulp stem cells could be used in organ reconstruction in the future.

Sophia was looking at the project details. This is not science fiction but a big project that Michel Group has invested in. Carmen’s baby tooth is worth millions now!

“Okay, okay. It’s my bad. Can you put up with it a bit more, sweetie?” Sophia was trying to put Carmen to sleep, but she was still sobbing in misery and could not fall asleep.

A fallen baby tooth was useless. It had to be pulled out while it was still loose and quickly stored in a specialized way in order for the dental pulp stem cells to be viable for future use.

Moreover, one baby tooth was not enough; they needed several. Carmen still had to get her teeth pulled out several more times in the future.

That is a bit cruel…

After Michael took a shower, he carried Carmen into his arms. Lying there, she cried, “Daddy, I lost my tooth.”

He looked at the hole in her mouth and coaxed, “I will reward you with letting you sleep with Daddy and Mommy tonight. How does that sound?”

“Okay!”

She was already five and had begun sleeping on her own very early on, but she still liked coming over to sleep with Sophia.

The three of them were in one bed—Carmen slept in the center with Michael on her left and Sophia on her right. It was pure bliss for her. Turning on her side to face Sophia, she asked, “Mommy, why did you have to pull out my tooth?”

Sophia looked at her with a warm gaze. “Because there is a little elf inside of your tooth. If Daddy and Mommy fall ill in the future and the doctors can’t treat us, that little elf will make us better again! It can treat Grandpa and Uncle Linus’ illnesses, too.”

Carmen was delighted to hear that and fell asleep shortly after. Sophia was watching her sleep with a content gaze when weariness washed over her like a tidal wave.

Meanwhile, once the both of them were asleep, Michael snuck off to Sophia’s study. He turned on her computer and looked over the project titled ‘Dental Pulp Stem Cells and Organ Reconstruction’.
