"Miss Linda, you’re too kind, this is my duty."
Linda stepped into the castle and glanced in the direction of the kitchen; inside the castle were just so servants and maids.
Only around Thomas Shannon were there n in black.
Handling these maidservants and maids was rely an easy task for her.
......
Golf course.
Thomas Shannon finally caught Harry, tugging its tail and pinching it twice.
Harry wailed miserably, pitifully rubbing its furry head against him.
Thomas Shannon turned around, his eye color imdiately grew somber, Linda was missing.
The only reason he personally chased Harry was to create an opportunity for her.
It’s a pity she didn’t cherish this opportunity.
He wondered what thod she’d use to assassinate him; it was truly intriguing.
"Thomas, co back quickly." Edward Benson waved at him.
Thomas Shannon smiled and embraced Harry, "Coming."
Sophie Sullivan got off the electric vehicle and saw Thomas Shannon carrying Harry, walking slowly toward her; she approached with Gabby, "Weren’t you supposed to be honing your golfing skills, why did you stop?"
Thomas Shannon lowered his head, looking at the terrified and puffed-up fur of Harry, "Harry ran around mischievously, I just managed to catch it back."
Would Harry’s mischief require him to personally go after it?
Sophie Sullivan looked at him with a knowing smile, understanding that his intention was nothing more than to lure Linda.
However, Linda seemingly didn’t take the bait; she returned to the castle, and it’s uncertain what she’ll do next.
"Hold him."
Thomas Shannon placed Harry into Sophie Sullivan’s embrace, then took the club and swung it with a standard and elegant posture.
Sophie Sullivan stroked Harry’s head, smoothing its fur, while Gabby at her feet seed unhappy.
It leaped up, placing its front paws on Sophie Sullivan’s shoulder, then nudged its large head into her embrace, opening its mouth to bite Harry.
Harry shrieked in terror, crazily burrowing into Sophie Sullivan’s embrace.
Sophie Sullivan was torn between laughter and tears as she gently tapped Gabby’s head, "Gabby, don’t make trouble. Haven’t I told you not to bully the weak?"
Gabby paid no mind, glaring fiercely at Harry with a look that seed poised to bite its neck at any mont.
......
After returning from the golf course, Thomas Shannon and Edward Benson accepted the hot towel handed by a servant, washed their hands, and walked toward the Restaurant.
Edward Benson looked at the servant and asked, "Where’s Linda?"
"Miss Linda is resting in the guest room upstairs, and we’ve already sent soone to ask her to co downstairs for dinner."
Edward Benson nodded with a smile.
After everyone took their seats in the Restaurant, Linda finally ca in and said softly, "Sorry, I slept a little deeply and made you wait."
She seed to have washed her face, a few strands of hair were still wet.
This also verified she had just been sleeping deeply, thus had to wash her face to refresh herself.
"No problem, have a seat."
Seated at the first position, Thomas Shannon spoke softly and made a gesture inviting her.
Linda nodded and sat next to Edward Benson.
The long court-style dining table was filled with a variety of exquisite and delicious dishes on the tabletop.
A servant stepped forward to serve soup, placing it carefully and respectfully in front of each person, reminding: "Be careful, it’s hot."
"Thank you," Linda politely thanked.
She lowered her eyelids, bowed her head, and drank the soup while Thomas Shannon and Edward Benson talked business, so she simply focused on eating without joining any conversation.
Thomas Shannon had just picked up a piece of hyacinth bean when his arm was bumped by Sophie Sullivan beside him, causing the bean to fall from the chopsticks onto the food plate.
He didn’t mind and prepared to pick up another one.
