Pampered by My Secret Husband

Chapter 416: Chapter 418: Just Bring the Horses on

Thomas Shannon raised his hand, rubbing his forehead. ”You’ve said everything, what else can I say?”

Sophie Sullivan snorted coldly, arrogantly crossing her arms.

She had a pretentious, aloof appearance.

”Stay here quietly, don’t go anywhere, and wait for me to come back.”

Thomas Shannon’s palm landed on her head, and he patted it as if she were a pet.

Sophie impatiently waved his hand away. ”I know.”

When Thomas Shannon arrived, Edward Benson had just arrived as well.

The two saw William Guillen and Fluffy Zane greeting guests together. They exchanged glances. ”What’s Lan Singh up to?” one of them murmured.

Thomas Shannon shook his head. ”Who knows.”

Didn’t he say he wouldn’t make a move on Fluffy Zane? What’s happening now?

”President, Young Master Shannon and Young Master Benson have arrived,” a waiter reported to William Guillen.

William Guillen, holding a champagne flute, politely nodded to the guests. ”Excuse me, I must step away.”

He led Fluffy Zane over to Thomas Shannon and Edward Benson. ”Thomas, Bay King, you’re here.”

Fluffy Zane pursed her lips, saying nothing.

Edward Benson smiled. ”Lan Singh, take us to greet Uncle Guillen first.”

”Alright.”

Sophie Sullivan had drunk quite a bit of water and suddenly needed to use the restroom.

”Unlock the door. I need to go to the restroom,” she told the man in black.

”Young Master has ordered that you cannot leave the car.”

Sophie clenched her teeth. ”Are you going to make me hold it until I burst? Or perhaps you’d like to watch me relieve myself here in the car?”

The man in black, rendered speechless by her questioning, had no choice but to unlock the central locking system.

Sophie pushed open the car door and got out, the man in black following closely behind to protect her.

Upon entering the hotel, staff guided her to the restroom. Sophie stopped at the entrance.

She looked back at the man in black, who seemed intent on following her further. ”Are you planning to come in with me?”

”We must ensure your safety.”

”Does that include accompanying me into the women’s restroom?”

The man in black: ”...”

Sophie said irritably, ”Wait outside.”

As she pulled open the door to leave the restroom, the door to the men’s restroom opposite hers was also pulled open.

Sophie looked up and saw a man staring intently at her.

His gaze carried a hint of deep meaning, along with a predatory quality.

This made Sophie uncomfortable. She frowned and scolded in a cold voice, ”What are you looking at? Keep staring, and I’ll gouge your eyes out!”

Hearing this, Frank Mitchell merely smiled indifferently. His gaze burned into her as three words escaped his lips: ”...maniac.”

Sophie stiffened. How did he know she was called maniac?

The man in black quickly stepped forward, shielding Sophie behind him.

Frank Mitchell chuckled again. ”No need to be so tense. I’m just saying hello. Isn’t that right, maniac?”

Sophie asked the man in black, ”Who is he?”

”Frank Mitchell.”

So, he was Amelia Shaw’s man, Frank Mitchell.

Sophie gave him a direct look, then averted her gaze and snorted coldly. ”Don’t try to act familiar. I don’t associate with just any random cat or dog.”

With that, she said to the man in black, ”Let’s go.”

Back in the car, Sophie rubbed her chin with one hand. What did Frank Mitchell mean? Amelia Shaw was dead, so he was blaming her for it? Hmph, laughable. Let him try whatever he wanted; she didn’t believe Thomas Shannon would stand idly by.

After Thomas Shannon presented his gift and offered his congratulations, he drank a glass of champagne and then left the banquet hall.
