Two handso n were locked in a fierce brawl, each blow lethal and aid at vital points.
The man in black watched, his heart pounding with fear. Lucifer had seed so delicate and fiendishly charming; he’d assud His Highness was just a pampered prince. He never expected His Highness to possess such skill. Fortunately, their young master was no pushover either!
Leo stood to the side, his expression shifting from initial worry to pride. He had to tell the Duke and Duchess that His Highness’s skills had improved yet again!
「The next day.」
Sophie Sullivan hadn’t slept well all night. She had been on edge, and her sleep quality was poor.
Still, Thomas Shannon and Lucifer, thankfully, hadn’t caused any major trouble for her. This allowed her to sleep until she woke up naturally.
She got out of bed, freshened up in the restroom, and then left her bedroom.
The spacious living room was quiet.
She ca to Lucifer’s bedroom door and knocked. "Lucifer, are you awake?"
There was no response.
She then went to Thomas Shannon’s bedroom door and raised her hand to knock. "Thomas Shannon, are you awake?"
Suddenly, the bedroom door opened.
The man standing in the doorway had a gloomy expression.
When Sophie Sullivan saw the uncharacteristic bruise on his face, she was shocked. "Thomas Shannon, who did you fight with last night?"
Young Master Shannon was injured! His opponent must have been incredibly strong!
Thomas Shannon’s eyes darkened. He grabbed her wrist and dragged her into the bedroom.
BANG. The door slamd shut, and she found herself pinned against it.
Thomas Shannon propped one hand beside her head, trapping her between the door panel and his own body. "Sophie Sullivan, you’re quite daring!"
Sophie Sullivan pursed her lips. "What do you an?"
"Who gave you permission to be so intimate with another man?!"
Intimate?
Sophie Sullivan laughed angrily. "Lucifer is my friend. That was just a friendly interaction. When were we ever ’intimate’?"
"You were embracing him! Isn’t that being intimate?" Thomas Shannon seized her chin, his grip tightening forcefully.
Sophie Sullivan frowned in pain and cried out, "Thomas Shannon, let go!"
"Stay away from Lucifer, or don’t bla for being ruthless!"
A sinister glint flickered in the depths of his eyes, a dark, baleful aura slowly emanating from him.
Sophie Sullivan lifted her leg, aiming her knee upwards.
Sensing what she was about to do, Thomas Shannon imdiately released her and stepped back.
Sophie Sullivan angrily massaged her chin and snorted coldly. "Thomas Shannon, get this straight: Lucifer is the only one who knows my true identity and everything about . You want to stay away from him? I can’t do that!"
From outside the door, Lucifer’s voice called out, "Cecilia Branford, where are you?"
Sophie Sullivan glanced back, then opened the door and walked out.
When Lucifer saw Sophie Sullivan erge from Thomas Shannon’s bedroom, a displeased expression flashed across his face. He possessively put his arm around Sophie Sullivan’s shoulder. "Cecilia Branford, are you alright?"
As he spoke, he raised his eyes and glared coldly at Thomas Shannon.
Sophie Sullivan saw that his face also bore a bruise, and she couldn’t help but think about last night...
Could they have really fought? Other than this, Sophie Sullivan couldn’t find any more reasonable explanation.
"I’m fine. Let’s have breakfast first, I’m hungry," Sophie Sullivan said.
Lucifer nodded. "Alright, let’s have breakfast together."
Thomas Shannon stared at their departing backs. He clenched his fist and slamd it hard against the wall. "Damn it!"
Lucifer ordered a al, and the waiter soon brought breakfast to the suite.
