Pampered by My Secret Husband

“Young Master, are you alright?”

Charlie River looked at the dusty and disheveled Thomas Shannon. If it weren’t for his prior orders forbidding them to step in, how else would they stand by and watch him suffer?

“What’s a little scratch?”

Thomas Shannon deliberately comforted Little Miss Snowball, the little fellow’s brows furrowed tightly, seemingly very worried.

Holding Snowball, Thomas Shannon got into the car and sighed softly, “Snowball, these wounds are a man’s badge of honor, you know?”

Snowball shook her head.

Thomas Shannon chuckled softly, ruffled her head, “You’ll understand later.”

It’s just a pity… even Snowball came back with him, trying to get close to Sophie Sullivan would probably be difficult.

On the way back to the hotel, Charlie River’s mobile phone rang, an unknown number.

He picked it up, “Hello, who is this?”

“Hello, is this Mister River?” The voice on the other end stammered, accompanied by trembling.

“I am.”

“Hello, I’m… I’m Danielle Ashton’s assistant, Beauty. Can you relay a few words to the President?”

“No!”

With that, Charlie River was about to hang up the phone, Beauty yelled loudly from the other end, “Danielle Ashton has been abducted, her life is now uncertain, please make sure to let the President know, only he can save…”

Charlie River’s face displayed disgust, he immediately hung up the phone.

Inside the compartment, it was very quiet, he wasn’t sure if Thomas Shannon sitting in the back seat heard it, Charlie River was deeply uneasy.

Thomas Shannon took the facial tissue Snowball handed him and wiped the bloodstain from the corner of his mouth. He raised his cold eyes, looking at Charlie River through the rearview mirror, “What’s the matter?”

“Young Master, nothing.” Charlie River attempted to brush it off.

Who would know how Danielle Ashton’s assistant Beauty got his number, she must have eaten the gall of a leopard, actually daring to report directly to him about Danielle Ashton.

Not to mention he wouldn’t pass it on, even if he did, what could come of it?

The one moving against Danielle Ashton was the Madam, who dared go against the Madam?

Even the Young Master must be cautious.

Moreover, Charlie River felt, Danielle Ashton wasn’t important enough for Thomas Shannon to make his own mother unhappy for her.

Thomas Shannon’s face sank, his deep and dark eyes filled with anger, “Charlie River, since when did you learn to deceive up and down?!”

Didn’t he hear?

Charlie River shivered all over, what was coming couldn’t be dodged.

He truthfully said, “Young Master, Charlie River wouldn’t dare. Just now, it was Danielle Ashton’s assistant, Beauty, who called me privately, saying… saying Danielle Ashton was taken away, her life uncertain.”

“And then?”

Charlie River continued, “I also know some other news, the one dealing with Danielle Ashton is none other than Madam.”

“Mother?” Thomas Shannon’s narrow cold eyes suddenly squinted.

With some doubt.

“Young Master, you probably don’t know, but when you were meeting with Young Madam at Mosul Sea and trying to take Little Miss Snowball away, someone already sneakily took photos of you, Danielle Ashton, and Little Miss Snowball, sending them back to the Country. Domestic media are heavily reporting that you and Danielle Ashton… are in a marital relationship, and Little Miss Snowball’s face was exposed too. Even more annoying, those reporters actually say Little Miss Snowball is Danielle Ashton and your child.”

Charlie River cautiously glanced at Thomas Shannon’s expression, then added, “Young Master, you’re aware of how much Madam protects Little Miss Snowball’s privacy and how much she likes Young Madam as a daughter-in-law. How could she tolerate…”

“Enough!” Thomas Shannon called out in a low voice, interrupting Charlie River, “Return to the Country immediately!”
