My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1727

"Um, I..." Freddy ran away, leaving Adrienne alone to deal with Jefferson. In order to reduce his wrath against her, she tried to bring up a new topic, but the moment she opened her mouth, she was so nervous that she bit her tongue.

"Adrienne, you must be a f*cking demon sent here to punish me." How could this stupid woman be so stupid that she bit her tongue when speaking? Jefferson thought.

He stretched his arm out and grabbed Adrienne's face with one hand. "Open your mouth and stick your tongue out."

Adrienne instinctively wanted to avoid him, but he shouted again, "Adrienne, if you try to avoid me again, I will throw you into the pond and feed you to the fish."

Adrienne felt extremely wronged, but she did not dare to retort. She blinked innocently at him, hoping that Mr. Hefner would be the bigger person and spare her.

Based on her years of experience under his torture, she knew that it was best not to provoke him when he was acting up.

She opened her mouth obediently. When he suddenly came close to her, she was so scared that she cowered and her face turned pale...

As expected, when she lifted her head, she saw the angry look on his face again.

Jefferson was so scary, yet he didn't allow her to be afraid. What kind of logic was that?

Oddly enough, he did not continue to make things difficult for her. He let go of her and said, "Let's eat."

"Oh..."

Adrienne quickly ate. She did not dare to utter a single word throughout the meal. Only after she finished eating did she look up. Jefferson was staring at her firmly as if he wanted to swallow her alive.

Adrienne was so nervous that she swallowed a mouthful of saliva and couldn't help moving further away. However, under his gaze, she stopped abruptly and said, "Sir, I'm full."

"Adrienne, why are you such a scaredy-cat?" Jefferson fixated his gaze on her with a deep and complicated look in his eyes.

If she would just pay a little more attention to him, she would not be so unaware of his feelings for her. She definitely would not have said all those things in front of an outsider too.

He often asked himself whether he should persevere.

The voice in his heart would insist on hanging on. She had nothing but him. If he gave up on her, what else would she have?

However, Adrienne had never thought about truly understanding him or his inner thoughts.

He was clearly laughing but she felt that his smile was really creepy. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but still could not find the words. She could only shrink her neck back in like a turtle.

It was very odd. Adrienne hadn't done anything wrong; Jefferson was the one who had been bullying her, but for some reason, she felt guilty when he stared at her.

It seemed like she was traumatised from his past twenty years of bullying.

"Are you full?" asked Jefferson crossly.

"I'm full," Adrienne replied obediently.

"Then, why aren't we leaving?" He sprang to his feet, looking impatient.

He was indeed impatient. Being alone with Adrienne was extremely infuriating.

"Can we leave now?" He hadn't said he wanted to leave, so obviously she hadn't dared to bring it up either. In front of the mighty Mr. Hefner, she was like a weak lamb waiting for slaughter.

"Jefferson, Adrienne, I heard that you two were here." A young and beautiful woman with long hair suddenly pushed the door and came in, looking at the two of them with a smile.

"Freya." Adrienne immediately got up to hug the young woman. "Long time no see. I really miss you."

"Hmm, why did you never come to visit me if you miss me? Who knows if you're telling the truth?" Freya Langham, Freddy's girlfriend, poked the tip of Adrienne's nose then rubbed her head softly. "You've been getting more and more distant from us lately."

"What do you mean? In my heart, you are like a sister to me. I'm waiting to be your bridesmaid. How could I be distant from you?" Adrienne said with a smile. She was acting lively and cute, just like a younger sister who was conversing with her older sister.

Jefferson couldn't recall the last time Adrienne acted like this. Well, actually he could. He knew that since her parents passed, she had never smiled like that.

Adrienne buried all her pain deep in her heart and shouldered her suffering alone. She never mentioned it to others. If he let her go on like this, she might drive herself crazy one day.

"You still remember that you promised to be my bridesmaid. I thought you had forgotten it." Freya smiled and looked at Jefferson again. "Jefferson, are you guys getting ready to leave?"

"Mm."

It was a simple answer that came from him.

Freya knew that he wasn't in the mood to talk, so she exchanged a few more words with Adrienne before seeing them off.

Watching them drive away, she turned around and saw Freddy's nosy expression. "They've already driven away. What are you still looking at?"

"Jefferson and Adrienne have something going on between them."

Freya rolled her eyes at him. "When have they not?" All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

"It's not what we thought. It's something else. They might have gotten together."

"I won't be surprised even if they suddenly took out their marriage certificate and showed it to me."

Freddy's eyes widened. "My dear wife, are you saying they've already registered their marriage? That's impossible! If they're married, how could we not know? Besides, with Adrienne's attitude, there's no way she would agree to marry Jefferson."

"Adrienne is just a little slow. Sooner or later, she will understand his love for her."

"What if she falls in love with someone else before that?"

Freya gave Freddy a contemptuous look. "Freddy, I don't want to insult you but do try using your brain. Do you think the girl that Jefferson has been protecting for the past twenty years could be snatched away by some other man?"

Freddy nodded. "That's true."

Jefferson had already deemed Adrienne to be his woman. There was no way anyone else could get in the way.

Jefferson sped along the highway.

Because it was late at night, the roads were empty. Jefferson was going at the speed of light. Adrienne was so scared that she clutched on tightly to the handle above her head and did not dare to let go.

Finally, Jefferson slowed down as they arrived at the parking lot below their home.

Jefferson got down from the car and walked away without waiting for her. She trotted to catch up with him and said, "Mr. Hefner, Mr. Jefferson, I misspoke earlier. You're a generous man, please don't hold it against me.

Jefferson still ignored her. He wouldn't even let her enter the elevator. He went in and left her in the lobby to wait for the next lift.

"B*stard!" Adrienne felt extremely aggrieved, but she could not show it to him. So, she took out her phone and recorded a video of what happened. Then, she posted it on her Whatsapp.

Before she posted it, she deliberately blocked Jefferson.

"Hmph, I want to make sure everyone knows how badly he treats me. Let's see if he'll still dare to bully me!"
