Pampered by My Secret Husband

Fluffy Zane’s heart was a mix of emotions, indescribable.

Happy?

Excited?

Bittersweet?

She should be happy; after all, being with him was her lifelong dream. She should be excited; finally, she was waiting for the day when he’d ask her to be his girlfriend. She should be bittersweet... all this is just pity for her.

William Guillen lifted her chin, forcing her to look at him, ”Fluffy, I’m not pitying you.”

If it were pity, he would have done it long ago, not waited until now.

A woman willing to die for him, whom he happens not to dislike, and both families have a long history—three months of a relationship wouldn’t harm him.

He was selfish; Fluffy Zane saved him, and he ought to repay her.

If being with her was his way of repaying her, then why not?

Sophie Sullivan’s words weren’t without reason; these few days, he had been waiting, waiting for her to speak up.

Waiting until now, she hasn’t said anything, proving that she doesn’t want to use kindness for repayment, so he had to speak up himself.

”You’re not pitying me, so are you sympathizing with me then?” Fluffy Zane’s eyes misted over.

William Guillen furrowed his brows tightly, growling in frustration, ”I said it’s not pity, nor sympathy. I just want to date you, understand?”

What more must he say for her to understand?

Three months of dating, is it that difficult?

Didn’t she always like him? Wouldn’t dating him be good?

”Oh...” Fluffy Zane lowered her head, William Guillen looked at the swirl of hair on top of her head, chuckling as he waited for her agreement.

”I refuse.”

Her voice, low yet incredibly clear, articulate.

William Guillen’s smile froze, a few seconds later, hardening at the corner of his mouth, ”What did you say?”

”I said I refuse.”

Fluffy Zane’s gaze was neither happy nor sad, bravely meeting his eyes.

Refusal?

Good, she actually has a day where she can refuse him.

William Guillen’s hand curled into a fist, he nodding heavily, ”Alright, Fluffy Zane, you’re something...”

Withdrawing his gaze, he slammed the door, leaving.

The doorframe quivered with the impact, and the little nurses outside the room, upon hearing the noise, dared to enter only after William Guillen had left.

”Miss Zane, are you alright?” The nurse asked anxiously, looking at her.

Fluffy Zane shook her head, her eyelids fell, and she tried hard to suppress the bitterness surging from deep within her heart.

William Guillen, who had slammed the door and left, strode to the Lawn outside the medical office, raised his head, took a deep breath, then exhaled heavily, attempting to vent the suffocated anger trapped in his chest.

Good for you, Fluffy Zane, didn’t expect you to be so resolute.

Refuse him?

Really something...

He never thought he’d also have a day when she’d refuse him; it feels really... terrible.

Feeling very irritated, he lit a cigarette, took out his mobile phone, contemplated, and abandoned Edward Benson, making a call to Thomas Shannon.

”Hello?”

”Thomas...”

Thomas Shannon, hearing his strange tone, frowned, ”What happened?”

”Fluffy refused me.”

William Guillen squinted his eyes, inhaling deeply on his cigarette, ”I asked her to be my girlfriend, and she refused.”

”Weren’t you expecting this? If Fluffy Zane agreed to you, that would be bizarre.”

Why does that sound like such an insult?

William Guillen exhaled a mouthful of smoke rings, growing more irritable, ”Thomas, what do you mean? Is there something wrong with what I said? You know she’s always liked me.”
