My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1743

Jefferson woke up in a daze. He opened his eyes and saw Adrienne nestled in his arms. Suddenly, his head stopped hurting from his hangover. He gently hugged her in his arms. "Little idiot, why didn't you take off your glasses before you sleep?"

He took off her glasses and saw that the dark circles under her eyes seemed to be heavier. He vaguely remembered that he had a high fever the previous night and she was busy taking care of him.

Jefferson flicked the tip of her nose and the corner of his lips could not help but rise slightly. "Little Specky, you do have a conscience after all!"

"Jeff..."

"What?" All of a sudden, Jefferson heard her calling him gently. For a moment, he felt like he was hallucinating. He fixed his eyes on her and realized that she was mumbling. "What's wrong?"

"Don't..." Adrienne shook her head and she looked like she was in pain.

"Don't what?" Did she not want him to come close to her even in her dreams? Thinking of this, Jefferson's expression started to get gloomy. "Do you hate me that much?"

"Dad, Mom... don't go. It's me, Adrienne." Adrienne suddenly reached out and grabbed Jefferson tightly as if he was her lifesaver. "Don't go! Don't go! Please don't go!"

"Adrienne, I'm not your parents. Don't call me that!" He knew she was having another nightmare. He picked her up and shook her twice to pull her out of the dream.

Adrienne woke up, but she still couldn't get rid of the heavy feeling on her chest. She stared at Jefferson with a trembling body. He had pulled her back from the bottomless abyss again.

"Adrienne..." Jefferson shouted Before he could finish his sentence, Adrienne suddenly threw herself into his arms. "Jeff, hold me tight!"

Jefferson had known Adrienne since she was born. They had known each other for more than 20 years. It was very rare for her to initiate a hug with him. In fact, he could count all the instances on one hand.

He clearly remembered the first time she took the initiative to hug her was when he was nine and she was six years old. At that time, she had just entered the first grade of primary school.

There had been a huge massacre in Chatterton Town back then. Her parents had been busy with work and Hodge was away, so she had to stay alone.

That day, he sent her home after school as usual. When he realized no one else at home, he asked her to go to his home with him. However, she was stubborn and unwilling, so he had to go home first. He then asked his maids to prepare extra meals for him to bring over to her.

When he went over, he knocked, but there was no response. He took out his spare key to her home and opened the door. The house was pitch dark. He tried to turn the switch on, but the lights did not work. "Adrienne..."

He shouted a few times, but no one responded. Just as he was walking in the direction of her room, a small figure in the corner jumped at him. He knew it was her, so he quickly caught her. Then, he heard her mumbling, "Jeff, hug me."

Later, he found out that there had been a short circuit. She was alone and afraid in the dark. She called her parents many times, but no one answered. She was so scared that she hid until he came...

From then on, as long as her parents and relatives were not at home, whether she liked it or not, he would stay at her home until her family came back.

The second time was when she was in junior high school. That year, there had been a huge incident of bullying in their school. One of the girls had been stripped naked and a video was taken of her by a couple of other girls. The video was then posted online, which eventually led to the victim jumping off the building and ended her own life.

The girl who committed suicide by jumping off a building was Adrienne's best friend...

After Adrienne heard the news, she curled up into a ball in the building her friend had jumped off and stayed there for a few hours. When Jefferson heard what happened, he rushed over. As soon as she saw him, the tears she had been holding back immediately poured out. "Jeff, hold me!"

The third time was on the night he came back from abroad not long ago. That night, she was drunk and confused. She was acting cute in his arms and said, "Jeff, I'm your Little Specky. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Don't you want to hold me?"

She snuggled into his arms like a kitten and then took the initiative to open her arms to hug him. "Hug me."

Every time Adrienne took the initiative to ask for a hug, Jefferson would remember it. This time, she also wanted him to hug her because she was afraid.

Jefferson couldn't explain what he was feeling. He felt happy that she needed him, but at the same time, he was sad because she only needed him when she was scared. Despite that, he still reacted quickly and held her tightly in his arms. He reached out a hand to gently caress her back and comforted her like he always had, "What's there to be afraid of? Who is going to hurt you with me around?"

It was better if he hadn't spoken, because once he did...

Sure enough, as soon as he spoke, Adrienne began to struggle, but he did not let go. "You asked me to hug you. Now that I have, you want to escape. Do you think I'm some dog who just follows your orders?"

Adrienne had nothing to say back to him.

She was so angry that her chest hurt!

Adrienne thought that she should have just let him suffer from his fever. She only took care of him because she was in a good mood.

"Jefferson, this son of a b*tch, *sshole..." Adrienne wanted to use every single swear word she knew to curse at him, but her brain went blank. She could not think of anything to say.

"You're silent again?"

"Get lost!" "Little Specky, you ungrateful b*tch. Are you trying to make me mad again?"

"Yes, I am. Why don't you come at me?" Adrienne stretched out her neck as if she was ready to let him lay hands on her. Jefferson looked at her helplessly.

Jefferson screamed, "F*ck!"

Adrienne screamed back, "F*ck!"

"Does he think he's the only one who knows how to say f*ck? I know how too!" Adrienne exclaimed inwardly.

Jefferson was speechless from anger.

Adrienne was really pushing his limits!

She stared at him silently.

One day, she thought, she would turn the tables and make him suffer.

The sound of a phone call broke the silence.

Jefferson picked up his phone and got off the bed. He walked out of the room and answered the call, "What's the matter?"

After listening to what the other person had to say, Jefferson replied, "Can't you think of a way to make him speak? Since when have you guys become this useless?"

"All right, all right. Don't talk nonsense with me. I'll give you another day. If you don't get him to speak this time, you know what the consequences will be."

Beep!

Jefferson hung up the phone and turned back to his room. Seeing that Adrienne had already got up, he asked, "Didn't your boss ask you to hand your work over to someone else? What are you getting up so early for?"

Adrienne rolled her eyes at him. "Idiot, do you think we only have one case on our hands?"

Jefferson rolled up his sleeves and retorted, "You little idiot, who are you calling an idiot?"

"The idiot is whoever is answering me."

Jefferson replied, "I think you must be tired of living!"

"I already told you to go ahead and come at me. Do it if you dare. If not, stop making all this racket."
