Pampered by My Secret Husband

The man silently puffed clouds of smoke, leaving Charlie River unable to fathom what his Young Master was contemplating.

Saying too much would be a mistake, so remaining silent was the best strategy.

After a long time, as Thomas Shannon lit his third cigarette, he lightly tapped the table surface, ”Charlie, what is going on? Shouldn’t you be giving me an explanation?”

”Apologies, Young Master, it was my oversight!”

With his head lowered respectfully, Charlie River replied, ”Lucifer suddenly came to Country A, it was my error not to report it immediately to you. Please punish me, Young Master!”

”Punishment?” Thomas Shannon scoffed coldly, ”You indeed deserve punishment!”

With those somber words, the ashtray was hurled over.

Charlie River did not dodge or flinch, letting the ashtray hit his head, spilling its contents to the ground and shattering into pieces.

His forehead broke, and after a moment of dull pain, crimson blood trickled down, spreading across his entire face.

He looked utterly terrifying.

Thomas Shannon suddenly stood up, circled the desk with a demeanor of nobility, his corner of the mouth slightly hooking up, he questioned coldly and strictly, ”All movements of Lucifer must be reported to me. How could you fail to report such significant news of his coming to Country A?”

The man lifted his long legs and viciously kicked Charlie River over.

After being slammed to the ground, Charlie River held his lower abdomen with a painful expression, struggling to try standing up again, and ultimately managing to do so with difficulty, ”Young Master, it was my oversight; I did not report to you instantly.”

Indeed, it was his oversight. Halfway through the meeting, he received the message but thought that since the meeting was ongoing, he failed to report instantly.

Who would have known, once the meeting ended and Charlie River intended to report, Thomas Shannon had already received photos sent from inside the manor by the men in black.

They were monitoring the maniac and Lucifer, capturing every interaction they had and sending it to the Young Master anytime.

Before he could report, the Young Master was already aware of the situation.

Failing to report promptly was his mistake, and he was willing to accept punishment.

Thomas Shannon indeed was furious. Lucifer, without a sound, came to Country A and now openly embraced his woman at his home, acting as though he were dead?!

With a body filled with rage, Thomas Shannon strode out quickly, shouting coldly, ”Prepare the car!”

”Yes, Young Master.” Charlie River clutched his lower abdomen, enduring the pain, instructing the men in black through his wireless earpiece to have the car ready to return immediately to the manor.

Shannons’ Manor.

Sophie Sullivan led Lucifer to the medical office, initially stopping by Doctor Angus’s office, where meeting His Highness Lucifer in a foreign country made Angus excited.

He stood up respectfully and greeted, ”Good morning, Your Highness Lucifer!”

”No need for formalities, Doctor Angus, sit.”

Lucifer placed a hand on Sophie Sullivan’s shoulder, the two sitting intimately in front of the desk, and Angus only seated himself after they took their chairs.

”I came to ask you, is Cecilia Branford’s surgical plan prepared?” Lucifer gazed at Angus with a smile, his natural nobility making him appear so distinguished.

Angus respectfully said, ”Your Highness Lucifer, after our urgent meeting discussion about Miss Cecilia Branford’s surgical plan, we decided to adopt a conservative treatment. Firstly, because of the peculiar location of the blood clot within Miss Cecilia Branford’s brain, it is advised against using aggressive and risky methods. Secondly, as Miss Cecilia Branford mentioned, she has had many nightmares regarding her memories, where she clearly felt fear within the dreams.”
