My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1860

Zelson was a good mentor and a helpful friend to Adrienne. Not only did she learn a lot of forensic knowledge from him, she also learned how to become a better person.

Adrienne always thought that she could work and learn from him for a long time, but unexpectedly, news of their separation came so abruptly.

Couldn't the superiors ask around his colleagues first or at least given them a heads up before transferring him away?

After a long pause, Adrienne continued, "Is this transfer to the Chatterton Criminal Police Team a lateral transfer or a promotion? Did they ask for your opinion? Were you surprised by the decision too?"

"It's a promotion, but no matter what position we are at, and no matter where we work, we must remember our responsibilities. Our work is to speak for the dead." Zelson smiled and added, "What's more, it's common for the superiors to make a sudden decision. We have been working here long enough to know that. It's not a big deal."

"But..." In the past two years, Adrienne had learned a lot from Zelson. Although she could often complete autopsies by herself, her working experience was still far limited than Zelson's. Nevertheless, Zelson was promoted, and Adrienne still hoped to see such a capable person achieve more, so she congratulated, "Mr. Zelson, although I don't want you to leave, I still have to congratulate you for your promotion."

"Adrienne..." Zelson gently called her name. He wanted her to know some things, but he did not want to say it directly to her. Hence, he could only say something nice, "Well, thank you for your blessings. I also hope that you will do well in your work. Then, I'll feel honored too."

"I will, Mr. Zelson. I can't let you lose face." She was sad to see Zelson leaving the team. The thought of losing a good mentor like him made her feel depressed.

Zelson advised, "If there's anything you need to ask me in the future, you're welcome to call me at anytime."

Adrienne replied, "I will. Thank you, Mr. Zelson!"

"Adrienne..." Zelson called Adrienne's name once again. His voice was low and deep, as if he wanted to engrave this name in his heart firmly. After hesitating for a while, he reached out and gently stroked her head. A thousand words turned into a sentence, "Let's keep in touch." "Yes." Adrienne nodded again. She was sad that he would be leaving. It was a blessing that she was able to work under a wonderful mentor like Zelson. However, she was about to lose him.

She knew that people would come and go. Now that she was experiencing it, she finally understood how it felt. She would never get to work alongside Zelson anymore.

Zelson chuckled and said, "Well, you should get back to work and make sure you leave a good impression on your new superior."

Talking about the new superior, Adrienne recalled about Jefferson. He asked her to report to him once she had gotten the report. So she said, "I still have something to attend to, so I'll get going first."

Now that she had work to be done, Adrienne immediately put dejection behind her. She quickly grabbed the documents and ran towards Jefferson's office.

Watching her back as she left, the smile on Zelson's face gradually faded away. There was a faint sadness in his heart. He knew all along that she was passionate about work, but he still couldn't help but feel upset when she left him because of work.

She would become a good forensics doctor and her future achievements would be no less than his... It was just that she would not be by his side anymore.

"You should know who was the one who transferred you out of Paramount Criminal Police Team." At this time, Jefferson, who wasn't supposed to be at Adrienne's office, appeared. He crossed his arms in front of him and looked carefree.

Zelson looked at him with a cold expression. He remarked, "The Hefner family is powerful and influential. They can move people around easily. I'm just an ordinary person. I really didn't expect you to take note of me."

"As I've mentioned, I don't want to see you appearing in front of Adrienne anymore. Do you think I'm joking with you?" Jefferson had always been arrogant and direct. He would never care about others' feelings.

This also led to those who liked him to like him more, and those who hated him to hate him even more.

"Mr. Hefner, do you not believe in Adrienne or myself? Are you that unconfident that you could win her heart?" In the past, Zelson had tried his best to avoid going head-on with Jefferson, but he didn't want to give in this time. If he were to give in every time, Jefferson would become more conceited. Now, he even got transferred away from his job without him knowing it.

"Save it. It has nothing to do with you whether I believe in someone or not." Jefferson ignored Zelson's provocation.

Zelson knew that it would turn out like this. Jefferson had the ability to make him feel uncomfortable, but he wouldn't let Jefferson win easily. "Mr. Hefner, whether you like it or not, let me get things clear with you. I like Adrienne, and I'll do everything I can to get her."

Zelson actually dared to say that he liked Adrienne in front of him, and that he would do everything he could to pursue her. When Jefferson heard this, he flew into a rage and yelled, "You are really shameless. There are so many women in this world, but you chose to like a married one. If you dare to have any improper thoughts about her, I'll chop your head off."

Zelson did not care about Jefferson's threats at all. He mocked, "You know better than me why Adrienne got married to you. I believe that she is still kept in the dark." Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"F*ck, how did he know about this matter?" Jefferson thought to himself.

Jefferson did not know how Zelson knew about this matter, but he found out something that he had never understood. He sneered inwardly, "So he was the one who tipped off Mr. Hodge."

Tipped off?

Zelson wouldn't care to do such a thing. However, he didn't try to explain himself. "Mr. Hefner, if you dare to do it, why are you afraid of getting discovered? In everyone's eyes, you are not such a coward."

"It's none of your business whether I'm a coward or not," Jefferson refuted, clenching his fists. He wanted to beat Zelson up. Adrienne had been fooled by him long enough. "It's such a pity that your plan is not going as you wished."
