Pampered by My Secret Husband

Chapter 417: Chapter 419: Just met Frank Mitchell...

Surrounded by Charlie River and the black-clothed man, Sophie Sullivan hurriedly left the hotel and got into the car, where she sat staring blankly into space. She was unaware of Thomas Shannon entering the car until a sudden pain on her cheek made her furrow her brows and snap back to reality.

Looking at Thomas Shannon, she saw his gloomy expression and his deep, unfathomable eyes. She frowned. ”What are you doing?”

”What were you thinking about?”

Sophie Sullivan angrily threw his hand away and rubbed her cheek. ”I just ran into Frank Mitchell...”

Thomas Shannon’s eyes darkened. Frank Mitchell?

”What did he say to you?”

”Nothing much. He just called out to me. The bodyguards were there, so he didn’t do anything to me.”

Even if Frank Mitchell had wanted to do anything to her, the bodyguards wouldn’t have allowed him to succeed.

However, Sophie Sullivan found it strange. Logically, since Amelia Shaw was dead, he should hate her. But as she sat in the car, carefully recalling his demeanor, tone, and expression, it seemed... he didn’t harbor any hatred toward her.

That was odd. Could it be that he blamed Thomas Shannon for Amelia Shaw’s death?

Sophie Sullivan couldn’t figure it out; her mind was a complete mess, so she decided not to think about it anymore. Whatever!

Thomas Shannon withdrew his gaze and asked the man in black, ”Is what she said true?”

The man in black replied truthfully, ”What the maniac said is true. Frank Mitchell didn’t do anything to her.”

Thomas Shannon nodded thoughtfully. He wouldn’t dare! Amelia Shaw is dead. If another person comes along looking for death, I wouldn’t mind sending them down the road to the underworld.

Inside the banquet hall, the banquet continued.

Tonight, William Guillen’s elder sister had also returned. Fiona Guillen was a jewelry designer who, along with her team, spent most of the year working overseas. For her father’s birthday banquet, Fiona Guillen had made a special trip back to celebrate with him. However, due to a flight delay, the banquet had already begun by the time she hurriedly arrived.

”Lan!” Fiona Guillen, dressed in a light purple formal gown, looked elegant and captivating, her temperament outstanding. She waved, calling out to her younger brother.

Hearing her, William Guillen and Fluffy Zane turned around together. The smile on William Guillen’s lips widened. ”Elder Sister, you’re finally back.”

Withdrawing his arm from Fluffy Zane’s, William Guillen quickly stepped forward and gave Fiona Guillen a hug.

Fiona Guillen patted his back and whispered with a mysterious smile, ”Seeing you with Fluffy, I almost couldn’t believe my eyes. What, have you finally realized there’s a pearl right beside you?”

A fleeting look of embarrassment crossed William Guillen’s face. ”Sister, Fluffy is just my female companion for tonight. Don’t overthink it.”

”Really?”

Fiona Guillen released William Guillen and walked towards Fluffy Zane. ”Fluffy, long time no see.”

Fluffy Zane also opened her arms. ”Sister Fiona, long time no see.”

After they hugged, Fiona Guillen raised a hand to fan her cheek. ”I need to go congratulate Father. You and Lan can continue to greet the guests. I must be going.”

”Alright, Sister Fiona.”

Fiona Guillen glanced back, a sweet smile on her face. ”Guillen Junior, take good care of Fluffy.”

William Guillen’s expression instantly darkened upon hearing ’Guillen Junior.’ He clenched his teeth and growled under his breath, ”You should have stayed away!”

Fiona Guillen left, laughing.

Fluffy Zane lowered her head, giggling secretly. Only Fiona Guillen could tease William Guillen so freely. She was the only one who could provoke him like that and get away with it.
