Pampered by My Secret Husband

Chapter 438: Chapter 440: Little maniac, you’ve gone absolutely mad!

This night, Fluffy Zane tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. She was worried about Sophie Sullivan and had no idea how she was doing now. Sophie had run away, and now that Thomas Shannon had caught her, what would happen to her... Moreover, failing to protect her had filled Fluffy with guilt.

「...」

Having slept early last night, Sophie woke up when the sky was just turning a fish belly whiteness.

She lifted her hand and rubbed her eyes, only to find a man lying beside her.

Her mind was foggy for a moment, but after a while, it seemed she recalled seeing Thomas Shannon in her half-asleep state.

She slipped one hand under his shirt, and her tender, boneless fingers touched his clearly-defined chest.

Yes, it was Thomas Shannon, no doubt.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed her own through the shirt.

”AH!” Sophie let out a startled cry.

The man’s sharp eyes slowly opened, his voice a bit cold. ”Awake?”

”Yeah.” It’s just a touch. Does he need to react so strongly?

”Hurts?” Thomas Shannon’s voice was cold and tense. ”You still know what pain is?!”

Not only was Sophie unafraid, she even started laughing. ”Thomas Shannon, are you angry?”

The man’s eyes were terrifyingly deep and dark.

She seemed to be growing bolder and bolder!

Sophie tilted her head up and muttered, ”You made me angry... so aren’t I allowed to make you angry too?”

”So, officials can commit arson while common folk can’t even light lamps? How tyrannical!”

In the early morning, Thomas Shannon released her hand and grasped her chin, his voice chillingly cold. ”Alright, I’ll give you a chance. Tell me how I made you angry.”

”Thomas Shannon...” Sophie couldn’t help but laugh at him. ”No wonder Amelia Shaw rejected you back then. Don’t you realize you’re destined to be lonely for life acting like this?”

The man’s handsome face was covered with a layer of icy frost—cold and gloomy.

His deep black eyes stared fixedly at her, as if he wouldn’t stop until he had stared a hole through her.

”Tell me, how did you treat Raina Bell? *You* think about it. What exactly did *you* do to make *me* angry! If you can’t explain it, don’t even think I’ll go back with you!”

”You maniac, you’re turning the heavens upside down!”

Sophie wasn’t confident either. He must know about my meeting with Frank Mitchell.

That’s why he was so furious, coming to the Zane Family late at night to catch me.

What I didn’t expect was that in my drowsy state, he had actually just slept beside me, nothing more.

Now that she had figured out his intentions, Sophie had to think about her next move.

She needed to stabilize his emotions; otherwise, she would be burned to ashes by his rage.

At this point, her only option was to pretend to be jealous.

Although... I truly dislike Raina Bell.

”Thomas Shannon!” She pursed her lips, her body tensing. ”In the end, in your heart, Raina Bell is still more important than me, isn’t she?”

Thomas Shannon’s slender eyes narrowed dangerously. ”What did you say?”
