Sophie Sullivan looked at Gaby, patted its head, and scratched its ears. Gaby excitedly played with her.

Gradually, Sophie felt a chilly sensation around her neck, as if an icy snake had coiled around her.

She secretly glanced over and saw Thomas Shannon with a stern handsome face, staring at her.

Sophie cleared her throat, "Gaby, are you hungry?"

Gaby rubbed against her palm even more excitedly and howled.

Satisfied with the response, Sophie nonchalantly turned her head and asked Thomas Shannon, "Thomas Shannon, are you hungry?"

"What do you think?"

He had worried about her all night, and here she was, playing with her Gaby as soon as she woke up.

Leaving him aside like that, how could she expect him to feel?

How could he possibly be happy?

Sophie felt guilty, "It seems like you must be hungry..."

As soon as she finished speaking, the servant knocked on the door, "Young Master, breakfast has arrived."

"Come in."

The room door opened, and the servants filed in.

They filled the tea table with exquisite and delicious breakfast before bowing and leaving.

Thomas Shannon got up, sat on the sofa, and silently started eating breakfast.

Sophie was dumbfounded. Did he really have to be so vengeful?

She was just playing with Gaby for a little while, was it necessary to be this angry?

And he just started eating on his own, what about her? What about her?

She was hungry too!

"Thomas Shannon..."

"..."

"Young Master Shannon..."

"..."

Sophie was furious, she stomped on the bed with a heavy foot, "Thomas Shannon, I’m hungry!"

"I know you’re hungry." Thomas Shannon took a sip of porridge, his voice bland, as the motion of swallowing made his sexy throat move up and down.

Sophie was exasperated, "Aren’t you going to feed me?"

"I can feed you." Thomas Shannon put down the porridge bowl, smiling leisurely as he looked at her, "But there’s a condition."

"What condition?" She knew for sure he wasn’t that kind-hearted, truly a businessman with no conscience!

His true nature as a businessman was thoroughly exposed.

"Say a few things I like to hear, if I’m in a good mood, I’ll feed you."

In other words, if what she said didn’t please him, he would just watch her go hungry?

Sophie cleared her throat, truly a hero at the end of her patience, she was going all out, "Then tell me, what do you like to hear?"

"That’s your problem to solve, not to ask me." Thomas Shannon crossed his legs, looking serene and unhurried, waiting for her to speak.

"Thomas Shannon, you’re the most handsome!"

"..." Flattery.

"There’s no man in the whole Country A who can compare to you!"

"..." Dismissive.

"Thomas Shannon, you’re every woman’s dream lover, their sexual fantasy!"

"..." Why did these words sound so infuriating?

Sophie racked her brains, but the man sitting upright on the sofa became increasingly stern, like an untouchable mountain flower, distant yet enticing.

More like the sacred snow lotus on Tian Mountain’s peak, holy and invulnerable, chilling to the bone.

"Speak up, why aren’t you speaking?" Thomas Shannon snorted coldly, truly hopelessly stupid!

"What do you want me to say? You don’t like anything I say, what can I do?"

Sophie angrily kicked the bed again, deliberately making noise to let him know she was upset.

"Weren’t the things you said just now true? Since they’re true, what is there for me to be surprised or happy about?"

Sophie nearly choked in exasperation, this guy... is completely shameless!
