Thomas Shannon's thin lips pressed tightly, "Thank you for your trouble."
Lucifer sneered without acknowledging, holding Snowball in one hand and leading William Westlake away with the other.
Snowball leaned in Uncle Lucifer's embrace, her long eyelashes fluttering, "Uncle, where's Mommy?"
"Mommy is resting in the bedroom. You'll be able to see Mommy in a while."
Leaning against the car door, smoking a cigarette, Thomas Shannon heard a voice in his wireless earpiece, and his tightly furrowed brow immediately relaxed.
Sophie Sullivan had indeed come back.
As long as she's okay...
As long as she's okay.
A big stone inside his heart suddenly dropped, instantly feeling much more relaxed.
Lucifer gently patted Snowball's little head, "Snowball, did you hurt Mommy's heart today?"
Snowball nodded with her eyes red, clutching Lucifer's sleeve with her tiny hands.
Seeming uneasy, seeming nervous.
