Pampered by My Secret Husband

Chapter 413: Chapter 415: Cecilia Branford is gone?

”Young Master... there are over 70,000 people named Sophie Sullivan in Country S.”

With its large population, Country S has many people with the same name.

Especially since the Hibiscus is the national flower of Country S, many girls are named Sophie.

Charlie River looked troubled. ”Young Master, we have too little information about the maniac... no, about Sophie Sullivan. For now, we can only eliminate them one by one. This will take a relatively long time.”

Thomas Shannon held his forehead with one hand, a faint trace of worry appearing between his eyebrows. ”Hmm.”

His voice was cool, like an icy spring.

Charlie River couldn’t fathom his thoughts, nor could he discern his mood.

「On a private island in the South Pacific.」

After thorough investigations, the man in black received the latest message.

Indoor shooting range.

A tall, imposing man, wearing noise-canceling earmuffs and safety goggles, was holding a pistol, effortlessly shooting at human-shaped targets that constantly moved and changed positions.

Five bullets, all to the heart.

The gunshots ceased. The man, exuding a sinister charm, casually tossed the pistol to an attendant nearby.

He removed the safety goggles and earmuffs, his deep blue eyes looking at the man in black waiting behind him.

”Found anything?”

The man in black bowed respectfully. ”Master, following the few clues available, we found that Miss Cecilia Branford secretly returned to Onassis Castle some time ago.”

”Cecilia Branford has returned?” Lucifer’s tone was light, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. ”She’s recovered and now she’s hiding from me. How mischievous.”

With those words, the man strode out. ”Make preparations. We’re flying to Country F.”

”Yes, Master!”

A direct flight route was secured for the private jet with utmost speed, and it departed for Country F.

「William Guillen’s father’s birthday arrived.」

On Mr. Guillen’s birthday, Fluffy Zane attended in grand style, bringing valuable gifts.

The birthday banquet was held in the banquet hall of a hotel under the Guillen Group’s management. Guests from the business and political circles of the Imperial City were present to offer their congratulations.

Fluffy Zane came alone, representing the Zane Family.

Previously, she had asked William Guillen to be her escort for the evening, but he had not agreed, so Fluffy Zane didn’t press the issue.

After depositing her gift at the receiving area, she went to greet Mr. Guillen.

”Uncle Guillen, Fluffy wishes you many happy returns of this day, continued blessings in the years to come, and may you and Auntie share a long and happy life together.”

”Fluffy, you’re becoming quite the charmer; your words are as sweet as honey.” Mr. Guillen laughed, glancing around. ”Hasn’t your father come?”

Fluffy Zane smiled with grace and elegance. ”My father and mother are on a business trip together, discussing a project in the Southern Region, so I am attending on their behalf.”

”When your father and mother return, I’ll arrange a proper get-together with them,” Mr. Guillen said understandingly.

Mrs. Guillen took Fluffy’s hand and patted it gently. ”Fluffy, did you come alone tonight?”

”Yes, Auntie.”

”There’s a dance later, and you don’t have a partner. How about I ask Lan Singh to be your escort? What do you think?”

Fluffy Zane’s feelings for William Guillen were an open secret to both the Guillen and Zane families.

Mrs. Guillen was particularly fond of Fluffy Zane, having watched her grow up. Her son must be blind not to appreciate such a devoted and outstanding girl!

Privately, Mrs. Guillen cherished the hope that Fluffy Zane might become her daughter-in-law.

So, she occasionally created opportunities for the two of them, just like at this moment.

Mrs. Guillen gazed at her with tender affection, awaiting her reply. Fluffy Zane felt somewhat dazed. A wave of embarrassment washed over her face.
