Pampered by My Secret Husband-Chapter 886 - 888: That Is Cecilia Branford’s Fiance

With a bitter smile, Edward Benson could only obediently remove his hand, and Linda was the first to get into the car.

On the way back to the villa, Edward said nothing.

Linda didn’t know what he and Thomas Shannon had talked about upstairs, but vaguely, she had the intuition that their discussion involved her.

Returning to the villa, Edward turned off the engine.

He didn’t hurry to get out of the car; instead, he gripped the steering wheel tightly and pressed the corner of his mouth together, "Isla."

"I told you I’m not Isla, call me Linda," Linda said impatiently, unbuckling the seatbelt, ready to push open the door and get out.

Her wrist suddenly tightened as Edward grabbed it, and Linda turned her head to stare at him, "What do you want?"

"I don’t care what your relationship with Lillian Spencer is, or what she did to you, but why do you obey her..."

Edward closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath, his voice roughening a bit, "From now on, cut ties with Lillian Spencer."

Lillian Spencer cultivated her merely to use her face and exploit his connection to approach Thomas Shannon.

To assassinate Thomas Shannon.

She was just using Isla as a tool for murder, no matter how Isla got involved with Lillian Spencer.

Edward hoped she would immediately cut ties with Lillian Spencer; that was what she needed to prioritize.

Linda let out a sarcastic laugh, as if she had heard a colossal joke, laughing in Edward’s face, "Who do you think you are? You want me to cut ties, and I’ll just do it?"

If not for Lillian Spencer’s orders, she would never have returned to him, staying by his side just to complete the mission.

All of this was merely for the mission.

He seemed to have mistaken his position; what right did he have to demand from her?

What right did he have to control her?

Ridiculous!

Edward’s eyes were bloodshot, his handsome face tightly tensed, "Linda, I’m doing this for your own good! If you keep being stubborn, you’ll only end up harming yourself eventually."

Linda sneered dismissively; Lillian Spencer was Mr. President’s daughter, who could possibly be her match?

Harm herself?

Wasn’t he just fear-mongering, afraid she might kill Thomas Shannon?

Not wanting to continue the conversation, Linda pried his hand off and pushed the car door open to get out.

Edward watched her determinedly leaving figure, slamming a fist onto the steering wheel.

"Damn it!"

What should he do?

He didn’t want his woman to become a tool for murder, ordered and used by others.

What should he do to break the current situation?

......

Country F.

Recently, Lucifer’s visits to the Onassis Old Castle had noticeably decreased, and his secret trips to the Royal Hospital had become frequent.

Soon, the doctor decided on the surgery length of time.

With the surgery length of time set, what Lucifer needed to do next was patiently await the surgery.

After the surgery, all the ailments troubling him would disappear.

Just two days before his surgery, the guards reported that the imposter had started becoming restless recently.

Not only had they begun appearing frequently at various social events and celebrity-gathered banquets, but they had also started interacting with Cecilia Branford’s fiancé, Liam Walton.

Liam Walton was the youngest son of a famous automobile tycoon in Country F, and personally selected by Cecilia as her fiancé.

As the imposter started getting close to Liam, what exactly was their intention?

If it were before, without any news from the doctor, he would never have let the imposter approach Liam.

That was Cecilia’s fiancé.
