Pampered by My Secret Husband

Chapter 398: Chapter 400: She is actually an orphan...

Raina Bell looked at Minimus Hart with a hint of accusation. ”Sister Minnie, didn’t you say I would definitely pass? Why... Why did the Young Master get angry when he saw me?”

Minimus Hart impatiently raised her voice. ”I asked you what happened, not for you to question me!”

”Just now, I was in the Young Master’s bath chamber in his bedroom, tidying up the bath towels. He suddenly came in. When he saw me, he got extremely angry and told me to get lost, completely unsparingly.”

Minimus Hart looked at Raina Bell’s face, exasperated. What’s the use of a pretty face if she’s brainless? It’s as if she’s wasting a good hand of cards.

”Haven’t I told you to follow my instructions in everything? Who allowed you to act on your own accord and go to the Young Master’s bedroom?”

”Sister Minnie, I...”

”Shut up! Go and receive ten-horse whips as punishment, so you’ll learn your lesson!”

Raina dared not voice her anger, so she could only nod, walk around Minimus Hart, and go downstairs to receive her punishment.

After taking a bath, Thomas Shannon came out of the bath chamber and heard a knock on the door.

”Come in.”

Minimus Hart pushed open the door, holding a fruit plate. She respectfully placed it on the tea table. ”Young Master, I heard from the butler that you are not in a hurry to start the meal, so I brought some fruit for you.”

”Raina Bell was trained by you?”

Thomas Shannon dried his damp hair with a towel in his hand.

Minimus Hart slightly raised her eyelids, her gaze falling upon his sexy chest, still glistening with water droplets.

His well-defined chest and sexy abdominal muscles... his body is like walking testosterone, enough to make anyone’s heart race.

She forced herself to look away. ”Young Master, this batch of female slaves was trained under my personal supervision. What did Raina Bell do wrong to make you angry?”

Thomas Shannon didn’t answer directly. He just pressed his lips together, his eyes deep and unreadable. ”Give me Raina Bell’s file.”

”Yes, Young Master.”

Five minutes later, all of Raina Bell’s information was handed to him.

Thomas Shannon sat on the sofa, his legs crossed. As he read the file, his expression grew colder.

An orphan... Raina Bell turned out to be an orphan.

He casually tossed the file aside. His eyes were unfathomable; no one knew what he was thinking.

Standing nearby with her head bowed, Minimus Hart allowed the faintest of smiles to touch her lips before quickly suppressing it.

「...」

Sophie Sullivan spent a night in the medical office.

The next day, a doctor examined her. Only after confirming she was no longer in serious condition was she allowed to leave.

Instead of leaving immediately, Sophie Sullivan went to George Stanford’s office and managed to snag a free breakfast.

George Stanford observed her frowning face. Uncharacteristically, he didn’t tease her but instead offered comfort, ”Don’t frown so much; it’s not good for regaining your beauty.”

Sophie Sullivan lazily raised her eyelids. ”Old Mr. Standford, are you finally admitting I’m beautiful?”

George Stanford: ”...”

One really can’t praise her at all! Give her an inch, and she’ll take a mile!

”Tell me, what’s wrong?”

”I’m worried about my face...” Sophie Sullivan added, ”I heard everything you said yesterday.”

”So?”

George Stanford leaned back against the chair back, observing her with an air of unconcern.

”So, I’m wondering if I should just live in the medical office to prevent any accidents from happening to my face?”

George Stanford laughed mockingly. ”Whether or not your face meets with an accident doesn’t depend on where you live, but on whether you have the determination to protect it.”
