Noble Pampering: Demon CEO's Relentless Entanglement

Nanny Garcia didn’t know if she was being too talkative, but these words were something she, as an old servant, had to remind Asher Land of.

If something really happened to Irene Morton this time, Asher Land would certainly feel uneasy.

Although Asher Land appeared ruthless and heartless on the surface, deep down, he still had flesh and blood.

Asher Land waved Nanny Garcia away and called Robert Williams, having him bring the basement key.

Nanny Garcia saw Asher Land heading towards the basement and thought there was a turning point, that he was willing to release Irene Morton. Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but let out a long breath of relief. She returned to the living room and Sophie Smith saw her come in, but looked past her, not finding a trace of Asher Land.

"Where is he?" Sophie walked up to Nanny Garcia to inquire.

"Well..." Nanny Garcia didn’t know if she should tell the truth, but thought, right now, Asher Land might not listen to anyone, except Sophie. Whatever she says, Asher Land will agree to.

So, she felt it necessary to tell Sophie about Irene’s situation.

"Here’s the thing, Miss Smith. I didn’t deliberately try to hide anything from you. I... I was talking to the young master about Miss Irene’s situation."

Irene?

"Nanny Garcia!" Sophie’s tone was also a bit displeased, "I don’t want you talking about her around Asher Land."

She wasn’t being petty or jealous. It’s just that, in good conscience, she couldn’t forgive Irene.

"Miss Smith, please don’t be upset." Nanny Garcia became anxious. "I’m not trying to stir up trouble between you and the young master, it’s just..."

Nanny Garcia hesitated for a long time, "It’s just that Miss Irene is too pitiful."

Pitiful people must have something hateful about them.

Sophie curled her lips, a slight mocking smile crept up the corners of her mouth.

"Miss Irene has been locked in the basement by the young master for almost three months now."

Ever since Sophie was kidnapped and injured last time, three months have passed.

Every time Nanny Garcia brought food to Irene, seeing her in such a miserable state, she couldn’t help but shed tears.

"Locked in the basement? Three months?"

Sophie was somewhat shocked. Was it the Land Family’s basement?

Sophie remembered that Asher Land had punished her in the past by locking her in that basement, and after just two or three days, she was already half-dead. She couldn’t imagine how Irene had survived in that dark and terrifying place for three months.

Sophie’s eyes reflected disbelief.

"Miss Smith, I’m really not lying to you. If you don’t believe me, you can go and see for yourself, Miss Irene has truly suffered the punishment given by the young master."

Nanny Garcia knew that all of Asher Land’s punishments for Irene were because of Sophie. To resolve this situation, Sophie might be the only one who could intervene.

Nanny Garcia kept rambling in Sophie’s ear, but she absorbed very little of it.

She always thought Asher Land was favoring Irene, but unexpectedly, he had secretly punished her.

Although locking her in the basement for three months was a punishment that couldn’t compare to Wyatt Sterling’s death.

But, nonetheless, Asher Land had dealt with Irene.

Sophie took a deep breath, her mind already in chaos. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"Miss Smith..."

"I understand." Sophie interrupted Nanny Garcia, "I will go to the basement now. If...if she knows remorse, I will ask Asher Land to release her. But if she continues to remain stubborn, I will force Asher Land to keep her locked up for a few months, a few years, or even forever without release."
