Pampered by My Secret Husband Chapter 1021 - 1023: What Else Do You Have to Say?

Lucifer was playing with Gaby on the Lawn; the morning sun wasn’t too harsh yet.

Gaby had been ill for a few days, but after recovering, it regained its energy, lively and mischievously chasing Lucifer to play with it.

From a distance, Gaby saw Sophie Sullivan walking toward it, and it excitedly dashed over, throwing itself onto Sophie Sullivan.

Sophie Sullivan did not pat its head as usual but instead pushed it away rcilessly, "Gaby, go play elsewhere!"

Unprecedented severity, unprecedented seriousness.

Gaby obediently followed behind her, much more behaved.

Lucifer chuckled softly and ca over, "Who upset our Cecilia Branford?"

"Lucifer, you’re still pretending!"

Sophie Sullivan couldn’t bear it any longer and growled, "What do you have to explain about the imposter marrying my fiance?!"

Lucifer’s body stiffened—did she find out?

A few seconds later, Lucifer quickly regained composure, "Cecilia, listen to ..."

"Listen to what? Listen to how you deceive ?"

"Dear, calm down, of course, I wouldn’t..."

"Lucifer, if I hadn’t investigated, how long were you planning to keep it from ? The news of the imposter’s marriage has long been spreading, yet you haven’t told . Nor did you plan to tell !"

Sophie Sullivan was truly furious, glaring at Lucifer in anger. Since their reunion, this was the first ti she had been so angry with Lucifer.

Not only she, but even Lucifer was startled.

His brows furrowed tightly, attempting to reach out and hold her to calm her down. But before his hand could touch her, she retreated defensively.

Those eyes, filled with coldness, stared at him as if looking at a stranger.

No, his Cecilia couldn’t look at him with such eyes.

"Cecilia, listen to ..."

Sophie Sullivan sneered, her face indifferent, "What else do you have to say, what can you say?"

Lucifer looked at her dotingly, with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. He first sighed softly and then said quietly, "I had originally planned not to tell you, after all, I never told you before. Now it seems that if I don’t tell you, you won’t believe ..."

"What are you saying?" Sophie Sullivan’s face was cold, "Don’t beat around the bush with !"

"The affair you’re talking about, I really didn’t know. During that ti, I happened to be undergoing surgery, and the old doctors at the Royal Hospital were so strict that they didn’t care what my identity was, saying one thing and aning it..."

Lucifer’s expression was indifferent; in the sunshine, he looked a bit pale, "Cecilia, I have a heart problem. The year I disappeared was spent getting treatnt. I didn’t want you to know, didn’t want you to worry, so I never told you. You went through the pain of Daddy and Mommy passing away, I couldn’t bear to see you heartbroken for , so I didn’t tell you."

Sophie Sullivan’s head went blank—Lucifer had a heart disease?

But in all the ti they’d known each other, he had never told her...

"Cecilia, it was only recently that the Royal Hospital found a heart source matching . During that ti when you couldn’t reach , I was actually undergoing surgery. It was wrong of to lie to you, saying I was attending a palace banquet, didn’t want you to worry about , so I chose to lie. It was my fault."

Lucifer lifted his hand, undoing the shirt buttons one by one. Sophie Sullivan, as if anticipating sothing, her lips trembled slightly, "...Lucifer."
