Pampered by My Secret Husband

Her expression was like an abandoned kitten, pitiful beyond words.

It made Thomas Shannon’s heart ache, and he didn’t want to let her go at all.

”Sleepy time...” Sophie Sullivan pouted her red lips, her voice soft and gentle.

Thomas Shannon received a 10,000-point critical hit; in an instant, he collapsed completely and scooped Sophie Sullivan into his embrace.

His strong arms held her tightly, soothing her affectionately yet with restraint, ”Alright, I’ll sleep with you, your husband will sleep with you.”

Sophie Sullivan contentedly lay on his chest, let out a few soft moans, and closed her eyes.

Her obedient and charming manner was like a lazy afternoon kitten taking a nap, with every little action being irresistibly cute.

Holding Sophie Sullivan, Thomas Shannon lay down slowly, gently patting her back to lull her to sleep.

Half an hour later, Thomas Shannon opened the bedroom door, and Charlie River waiting outside noticeably let out a sigh of relief.

When he saw Thomas Shannon carefully close the door, he lowered his voice and said, ”Young Master, Mr. and Mrs. Shannon have already been waiting downstairs for a long time.”

”Hmm.”

Downstairs, Mrs. Shannon had gradually recovered from her initial shock.

Knowing her son best, Mrs. Shannon understood Thomas Shannon; she wasn’t at all surprised he had acted before informing them.

Upon hearing footsteps, James Shannon raised his eyes, those deep eyes staring darkly at him, ”Come over and sit down.”

Following instructions, Thomas Shannon sat on the opposite sofa, ”Father, Mother, Sophie and I are married.”

Just after sitting down, Thomas Shannon immediately explained.

”Did Miss Sullivan agree?” Mrs. Shannon frowned deeply, looking at him with considerable concern.

He had always been used to acting on his own accord, only considering his feelings and not those of others.

Given his current relationship with Sophie Sullivan, it’s probably not a simple matter to get her to agree to marry him.

The Civil~Affairs~Office staff came overnight, and even now having not seen Sophie Sullivan appear, Mrs. Shannon couldn’t help but worry.

Thomas Shannon leaned over to pour a cup of water for himself, took two sips, his cold eyes carrying a hint of a smile, ”It doesn’t matter that Fennie isn’t agreeing now; she will agree in the future.”

”Lincoln, do you plan to keep it from her?” James Shannon was direct as an arrow.

Thomas Shannon played with the water cup, nodded, ”That’s right, for now, let’s not tell Fennie about the marriage. When the right time comes later, I’ll tell her. Father, Mother, don’t you want to have a grandson?”

”...”

”Do you want your grandson to bear the label of being born out of wedlock?”

Mrs. Shannon started to get a headache, raising her hand to interrupt Thomas Shannon before he could continue, ”Alright, stop talking.”

Thomas Shannon looked at James Shannon, kindly suggesting, ”It’s getting late; Mr. Shannon, you should take Mrs. Shannon upstairs to rest. Anyway, Fennie is already your daughter-in-law, and that’s unchangeable.”

”Shut up!” James Shannon grabbed Harry, who was sleeping nearby, and threw him at him.

With a yelp, the chubby and round body of Harry was caught steadily by Thomas Shannon.

Thomas Shannon chuckled, patting Harry’s head to calm the startled cat, ”Father, this matter is already settled, and no one can change it. Ultimately, whether you accept it or not, Fennie is my wife!”

The last sentence was full of pride and... unabashed smugness!

”Lincoln, bullying Miss Sullivan like this, you’ll pay for it later,” Mrs. Shannon said, then got up and went upstairs with James Shannon.
