Pampered by My Secret Husband

Thomas Shannon sneered, ”Fennie is not familiar with the Imperial City. If you want to play, I can have Charlie River show you around.”

”No need, aside from Cecilia Branford, no one catches my eye.” Lucifer wasn’t about to be fooled. How could Charlie River compare to his Cecilia Branford?

”Lucifer, you’ve been here quite long enough. Is there really nothing happening in Country F?”

With Thomas Shannon bringing this up, Sophie Sullivan also realized that Lucifer had been in the Imperial City for several days now. Didn’t he say he needed to stay in Country F to keep the imposter from getting suspicious?

Now that he’s been away for so many days, if the imposter and those behind her become suspicious, wouldn’t it be disadvantageous to them?

”Lucifer, when are you going back?” Sophie Sullivan put down her chopsticks and asked earnestly.

Lucifer felt stifled; Thomas Shannon was eager to have him leave, which he could understand, but what did his Cecilia Branford mean?

Did she also want him to leave?

Lucifer looked towards Sophie Sullivan with a bit of grievance in his eyes, ”Not going back for now.”

”Why?” Sophie Sullivan was extremely surprised, ”Didn’t you say you needed to keep the imposter stable?”

”It’s already stable. She’s busy with more pressing matters and won’t become suspicious.” Lucifer hooked his lips into a smile; the imposter is busy trying to move the wedding date forward.

She doesn’t have time for other matters right now, so Cecilia Branford can rest assured.

Thomas Shannon leaned back in the chair, his cold eyes glanced at him with deep meaning, ”Don’t forget, the imposter is not alone; she has allies behind her. Just because she isn’t suspicious doesn’t mean those behind her are not. Being abroad for a few days is fine, but the longer it is, the more it may arouse suspicion.”

Lucifer shook his index finger from side to side, ”You needn’t worry. Since I’ve come out, I’ve made all the preparations.”

”Lucifer, you keep saying how good you are to Fennie. Is this how you treat her? Knowing people in Country F are watching closely, yet you’re enjoying leisure in Country A. If you truly care for Fennie, you shouldn’t allow any possibility of exposing her.”

This sentence questioned Lucifer’s care for Sophie Sullivan, and Leo couldn’t take it, ”Your Highness’s care for Miss Cecilia Branford is evident to us; your words cannot negate it.”

”Bold, is this something you should be speaking on?” Charlie River scolded aloud.

Sophie Sullivan: ”...”

Her head hurt; who could take these two away for her?

One Thomas Shannon equals an atomic bomb; add one Lucifer, equals a nuclear bomb.

When these two collide, it’s like they have earth-shattering power.

Sophie Sullivan’s headache worsened, she slammed the table and stood up, ”Alright, stop arguing!”

Lucifer shrugged helplessly, ”Cecilia Branford, you also see it’s this fellow who’s been provoking me.”

”Lucifer, could you please show some awareness of a guest? You staying silent wouldn’t make you a mute.”

Here we go again, here we go again...

Sophie Sullivan turned and left, ignoring the shouts of the two men behind her.

...

The next day, Gaby was better, so Sophie Sullivan took Lucifer out to play.

Come to think of it, she hadn’t really had the chance to enjoy her time in the Imperial City. Since Lucifer was here, she decided to accompany him and enjoy the city together.

For three consecutive days, Sophie Sullivan and Lucifer frantically explored all the fun places in the Imperial City.

On the fourth day, Sophie Sullivan was already too exhausted to continue.

Lucifer held her close, gently patting her back, soothing her.
