Pampered by My Secret Husband

William Guillen raised an eyebrow, holding a smile with deep meaning, ”Fluffy, why are you in such a hurry to get rid of me, what do you want to do?”

”I want to sleep.”

”Perfect, I want to sleep too, how about we sleep together?”

Autumn Johnson: ”...”

Hearing his flippant words, she was really both angry and annoyed. What did he take her for?

Did he see her as one of those women who approach him for money, using any means with no dignity?

Autumn Zane closed her eyes, her cheeks flushed with anger.

Knowing her for so many years, William Guillen understood very well what was going on with her now. He stretched out his hand, grasped her shoulder, and turned her body towards himself.

William Guillen sighed lightly and said earnestly, ”Haven’t you really considered what I said?”

”I have considered it, and I refuse.”

What a straightforward and decisive refusal.

William Guillen nodded and smiled, ”Alright, if that is your final decision, then I respect it. I won’t bring up this matter anymore. I have a business trip in a few days, so I won’t be around to care for you. If you need anything, you can call my secretary and he will take care of it.”

After speaking, he raised his hand to glance at his wristwatch, ”I have things to do, I’ll head out first.”

He stood up, ruffled the hair of a bewildered Autumn Johnson, ”Rest early.”

The tall figure of the man disappeared from the room, leaving Autumn Johnson still somewhat unable to regain her senses. Did he mean... he would never come again?

Realizing this possibility, Autumn Johnson’s feelings were extremely complex.

On one hand, she didn’t want him to care for her out of a sense of obligation, nor did she want him to propose she be his girlfriend out of obligation.

On the other hand, she was somewhat attached to their current mode of interaction.

He would appear in front of her every day without her having to chase after him; he would proactively appear in front of her.

He inquired after her well-being, taking meticulous care of her.

The words he said just now, were they out of anger?

Or was her rejection a relief for him, and he never actually intended to date her from the start?

Autumn Johnson felt despondent; even the nurse calling her several times didn’t reach her ears.

William Guillen, you will never know, the more I see you, the more I will be unwilling to let go.

Country F.

Since Sophie Sullivan moved into Lucifer’s manor, the Duchess runs to the manor every day.

Lucifer also gradually got tired of dealing with the impostor and spent every day entangled with Sophie.

The tattoo on the chest finally stopped hurting. It was hot weather, so Sophie changed into a swimsuit and came to the pool. She took off the bathrobe and handed it to the servant, leaping into the pool.

Lucifer followed her in, jumping into the water as well.

The two of them chased each other in the water. Whether it was due to the medicine given by Angus, but after swimming two laps, Sophie felt breathless.

She immediately rose to the surface, wiping the water droplets off her face, taking deep breaths.

Lucifer also surfaced, smiling, ”What’s wrong, Cecilia?”

”Nothing, just suddenly feel a tightness in the chest...” Sophie was a bit uncomfortable and planned to get out of the pool.

Suddenly, her shoulder was seized by Lucifer. He spun her around, his gaze locked on the tattoo on her white, smooth skin over her chest.

Though the design was small and delicate, Lucifer recognized at first glance that it was the initials of Thomas Shannon’s name.

His thin lips pressed tightly, his eye color darkening, and the man, already possessing a sinister and charming aura, now exuded an even more potent cynicism.
