Pampered by My Secret Husband-Chapter 519 - 522: Who Ruined Her Face Again?

Gaby, once chubby and round from Cecilia Branford’s pampering, was now considerably thinner. It looked completely like a sick cat, entirely devoid of the King of the Forest’s majestic aura.

Lucifer stroked Gaby’s head, staying with it for a while before turning to leave. As he walked out, his expression gloomy, he ordered, "Prepare the car!"

"Yes, Master!"

Leo had already prepared the car. Seeing Lucifer stride over, he respectfully opened the car door. "Master, please."

As soon as he got into the car, Lucifer’s mobile phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and impatiently hung up.

A moment later, the phone rang again.

A hint of helplessness touched Lucifer’s refined features. "Daddy, is something wrong?"

"Lucifer, what have you been hiding from Daddy lately?"

Lucifer laughed softly, one hand going to his forehead. "Daddy, what could I possibly hide from you?"

"Daddy has found out about a significant outflow of your funds. Tell me, what are you planning to do?"

Lucifer was silent for a moment.

He cursed under his breath. "Daddy, I have something else to do. I’m hanging up now. I’ll come see you when I have time."

With that, Lucifer immediately hung up the phone.

Sitting in the passenger’s seat, Leo asked worriedly, "Master, hanging up on the Duke like that... will there be any problems?"

"Shut up." Lucifer glanced at Leo coolly. "I know my limits."

Toying with his mobile phone, Lucifer smiled and called the Duchess.

"My dear Lucifer, have you been missing Mommy?" The Duchess’s gentle voice came through the phone.

"Mommy, are you busy?"

"If Lucifer needs Mommy, Mommy is never too busy."

Lucifer’s scarlet thin lips curved into a captivating smile. "Daddy seems to be in a bad mood today. Mommy, if you have time, could you comfort him for me?"

The Duchess replied dotingly, "Alright, Mommy will listen to Lucifer."

"I love you, Mommy."

After hanging up, Lucifer breathed a sigh of relief. Leo, who had been worried, couldn’t help but admire Lucifer’s shrewdness.

Only the Duchess could manage His Highness the Duke.

To avoid attracting attention, Lucifer abandoned his private jet and took a commercial flight to Country A.

Everything that had happened to Cecilia Branford both shocked and intrigued him.

He desperately wanted to know why Cecilia Branford was willing to stay by Thomas Shannon’s side and refused to contact him.

And who had disfigured her face?

All of it was a huge mystery, waiting for him to investigate and uncover the truth. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

...

「Country A.」

Taking advantage of Thomas Shannon’s trip to K Group Headquarters, Sophie Sullivan left the manor with the supplementary card he had given her. Learning a lesson from her previous escape attempt, the number of men in black assigned to her this time had doubled, almost matching the scale of Thomas Shannon’s own entourage.

"Maniac, which shopping center do you want to go to?"

"Whatever."

Sophie Sullivan lazily turned her head, gazing at the scenery outside the car window.

Going out was just an excuse; her main goal was to find Fluffy Zane.

Going directly to the Zane Family residence would arouse suspicion, so she had to find Fluffy Zane indirectly.

Arriving at the shopping center, Sophie Sullivan put on the ornate ruby mask before getting out of the car. Thomas Shannon, mindful that her face hadn’t fully healed, had ordered the men in black to clear any place she was to appear beforehand.

Sophie Sullivan got out of the car and, escorted by the men in black, entered the luxury boutique. Inside, all the clerks focused their attention solely on serving her.
