Pampered by My Secret Husband

Chapter 942: Chapter 944: Don’t Tell Me, It’s Her...

He took out his mobile phone with one hand and called Thomas Shannon.

The call was quickly answered, Thomas Shannon’s tone was casual, ”What’s up?”

Even though he knew this news article might be nonsense, hearing Thomas Shannon’s voice, William Guillen still felt reassured.

The breath he was holding finally relaxed.

”Are you okay?”

Thomas Shannon retorted, ”What could be wrong with me?”

”Didn’t you read that news article?”

The words ”death” had come out, it seemed the person daring to publish this report did not want to stay in Country A.

Or could it be that someone was directing them from behind?

”I read it.” Thomas Shannon’s deep voice revealed no emotions.

William Guillen stood up and walked to the front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, hooking a smile, ”Someone said you’re dead, how do you feel?”

”No particular feeling, it’s just a bit hard to handle with my mother only.”

The car accident from last time was suppressed by James Shannon, which prevented Mrs. Shannon from being disturbed.

This time, the incident happened suddenly, and the reports are almost everywhere. It’s too late to suppress the news now. Mrs. Shannon will probably find it hard not to know.

”Are those media outlets seeking their own doom, daring to publish such fabricated reports, have they gotten tired of living?”

Thomas Shannon sneered and had already figured out who was secretly instructing them, ”It’s not that they’re tired of living, but they had to publish this report to test the waters.”

”What do you mean?”

Had to?

Looking across the whole of Country A, who else would dare to provoke Thomas Shannon?

Could it be... the Presidential Mansion?

”Don’t tell me, it’s Lillian Spencer...”

”It’s her.” Thomas Shannon’s voice was casual, as if speaking about an insignificant matter.

William Guillen sighed, ”This Lillian Spencer is really a lingering ghost, but why would she have someone publish such a report?”

An unfounded report about Thomas Shannon already being dead, what benefit does it bring her?

”She sent someone to assassinate me, I turned the tables, letting her think I was really poisoned. These days, she’s been secretly inquiring about the situation, not succeeding, being desperate, she had to have someone publish these news to force me to show up, or to force the K Group to make a statement.”

William Guillen was utterly shocked, his eyebrow tips raised slightly, ”How come I don’t know that a manor where not even a fly could fly in would allow someone to successfully infiltrate and assassinate you?”

”You know that person too.”

William Guillen’s smile froze at the corner of the mouth, ”Who?”

”Isla Stanley.”

”What did you say?!”

This message dropped like a bomb detonating across the water, causing waves upon waves.

William Guillen couldn’t believe what he was hearing, Isla Stanley, the Isla Stanley he knew?

The very Isla Stanley that Edward Benson has been longing for and searching continuously?

”You heard right, it’s Edward’s Isla Stanley. However, she now goes by Linda, was rescued by Lillian Spencer and trained into an assassin.”

William Guillen’s brain raced, processing this piece of news.

His brows furrowed tightly, his facial color became increasingly gloomy, ”Isla Stanley... does Edward know Isla Stanley is still alive?”

”He knows.”

A bold conjecture flashed through his brain, ”Thomas, don’t tell me the reason Isla Stanley could target you is because Edward helped.”

Thomas Shannon still used that nonchalant tone and an understated manner to say, ”That’s right, it was Edward who brought Isla Stanley into the manor. But, I noticed it early in the morning, so I was prepared to handle it.”

”Utterly foolish!” William Guillen cursed in a low voice, ”Has Edward gone crazy?”
