Pampered by My Secret Husband

Chapter 720: Chapter 723: Gaby Gaby... My Gaby!

Sophie Sullivan thought for a moment that she was hearing things. She stared blankly at Lucifer. ”Say that again.”

Lucifer petted Gaby’s head with one hand and smiled. ”Gaby, tell Cecilia Branford who you are.”

Gaby enthusiastically approached her and kept rubbing its head against Sophie Sullivan’s neck, as affectionate as a big cat, completely devoid of the King of the Forest’s dignity.

”...Gaby...” Sophie Sullivan tried calling out.

Gaby howled twice, as if wanting to pounce on her again. Sophie Sullivan immediately hugged its big head and stroked its fur with one hand. ”Gaby, are you my pet?”

Gaby responded with a resounding howl.

After the shock came a burst of joy. Sophie Sullivan laughed and hugged Gaby tightly. ”Gaby, Gaby... my Gaby!”

So, this big cat was hers. In the desert, from the first moment she saw Gaby, she’d felt something strange. For no reason at all, she had been convinced it wouldn’t hurt her. It turned out her intuition was correct. Gaby not only hadn’t hurt her but had even saved her. Though she kept kicking and hitting it, it had held on tight, pressing her down to keep her from the dangerous quicksand. Later, when she left the desert and saw Gaby running after the helicopter on the sand dunes, her heart had ached. She never thought... she would see Gaby again! Even more miraculous, this unusually fateful fellow turned out to be her pet!

Excited and overjoyed, Sophie Sullivan raised her head and gave Lucifer a bright smile. ”Lucifer, I love this surprise!”

Laughing foolishly, Sophie Sullivan hugged Gaby’s neck tightly while Gaby nuzzled her affectionately. The scene of the girl and the tiger was surprisingly harmonious.

At this moment, Sophie Sullivan, struck by the surprise, was no longer tired. Her fatigue vanished in an instant.

She held Gaby and kept asking Lucifer about her and Gaby’s story. Lucifer had to tell her every detail, from Gaby’s childhood to how they got along.

Propping his head with one hand, Lucifer lazily leaned on the sofa. He watched her with doting eyes as the corners of her mouth lifted. ”You’ve been raising Gaby since it was little,” he said. ”You’ve always had it by your side. Even when you slept, Gaby would sleep at your bedside in your bedroom.”

”Really?” Sophie Sullivan’s eyes sparkled brightly. She glanced at Gaby before rubbing its big head again.

Gaby thoroughly enjoyed its master’s touch, closing its eyes and rubbing its head against her palm. It was very affectionate.

”Of course. You can see just how dependent Gaby is on you.”

Sophie Sullivan lowered her head and laughed lightly. ”Gaby, I love you!”

Lucifer looked enviously at Gaby and said softly, ”What about me, Cecilia Branford?”

”I love you too, Lucifer!”

Lucifer was instantly healed, and he laughed as well. Watching Sophie Sullivan and Gaby hugging each other, he leaned in and embraced Sophie Sullivan.

Burying his head in her neck, he murmured, ”I love you too, Dear Cecilia.”

After playing with Gaby for over an hour, Sophie Sullivan gradually became tired.

She returned to the bed and lay down. Gaby wanted to follow her and tried to jump on the bed.

But Lucifer grabbed its tail with one hand and pulled it back. ”Gaby, you sleep on the sofa.”

Gaby didn’t move. Lucifer patted its head gently. ”Don’t disturb Cecilia Branford, you understand?”

Finally, Gaby turned around, leisurely jumped onto the sofa, lay down, and rested its head on its front paws.
