My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1836



Chapter 1836

She looked so adorably foolish as she grinned at him. After that cooking disaster, how could she still have the confidence to think that he had a good impression of her?

Jefferson wanted to roll his eyes at her but decided to let it go after thinking about it. She had received enough blows for the day. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

He put some food into her bowl and said, "Yes, yes. You are indeed amazing. You are the most outstanding woman in the world. Can we eat now?"

If they didn't eat soon, he would starve to death.

Adrienne nodded and said, "Let's eat."

Ever since Jefferson had disappeared, Adrienne hadn't eaten a proper meal. As soon as she took the first bite, she realized she'd been starving too. She wolfed down a few bites before setting down her spoon.

"Slow down, nobody's stealing your food," said Jefferson.

Adrienne swallowed a mouthful and replied, "I suddenly felt really hungry."

Jefferson scooped more food into her bowl and said, "You're such a little idiot."

Seeing that he kept giving her food but not taking some for himself despite having complained about being hungry, Adrienne took the initiative to return the gesture. "Don't just watch me eat, you should eat too. Didn't you say earlier that you were hungry? Have you suddenly lost your appetite now that the food's on the table?"

"Says who? I just..." Truth is, he got so mesmerized by how cute she looked while eating that he had forgotten that he was starving. But Jefferson didn't want to tell her that, or else she would let it

get to her head. So he said, "Am I supposed to wolf down my food like you?"

Adrienne knew he was right. "I guess not."

He once again scooped more food for her and urged, "Eat up. I still have more important things to do."

"You're injured, can't you just rest for two days?" Just as Adrienne lowered her head, she lifted it up again and looked at him worriedly. "You are not the only man in your team. Can't you ask someone else to help you out for two days?"

"I can still make you cry for mercy even with this injury," said Jefferson with a smirk.

"Jefferson..." Adrienne stammered as her face turned red, "I'm being serious here, what are you talking about?"

"I'm just telling you that it's not a big deal. What did you think I was referring to?" asked Jefferson with a solemn expression.

Adrienne lowered her head and murmured quickly, "Let's eat."

It was already late when they finished their dinner.

"I'll clean up. You should rest early." Adrienne volunteered to do the housework. After all, she had agreed to make dinner but she failed to do so in the end. If she didn't make the effort to make up for her mistakes, Jefferson would probably criticize her again.

"Alright," said Jefferson as he left the table.

"You should go to bed early." Adrienne reminded him loudly as she was afraid that he would be tired.

After Adrienne was done cleaning up, she went back to the room, but Jefferson was nowhere to be seen. She went over to the study and asked, "When did you become so dedicated, Mr. Hefner?"

He never worked this hard before the injury. Now that he needed some good rest, he drowned himself in work whenever he had the chance instead. She wondered if he was doing it to make her feel bad.

Jefferson looked up and said, "I wasn't working, I was waiting for you."

"What for?"

"I'm injured and can't take a bath by myself. What do you think I'm waiting for?"

Hearing this, Adrienne's face flushed red again. "Didn't you say that your injuries are not a big deal? Why can't you bath yourself?"

"You still owe me something," replied Jefferson with a smile.

"A-And what would that be?"

Jefferson opened his mouth but did not make a sound.

Adrienne pushed, "What did you say? Can you speak up?"

Jefferson repeatedly curled his finger and said, "Come closer and I'll tell you."

Adrienne walked over as told. As soon as she approached him, he immediately pulled her down onto his lap. Because of the injuries on his leg, Adrienne didn't dare to move around. "Don't take your injuries lightly. Let me get up."

"Little Specky, don't move, don't talk, and close your eyes..." Jefferson's low and seductive voice drifted into Adrienne's ears. As his face was inches away from hers, she could distinctly feel his

breath. He was so close that it felt like his lips were grazing her earlobe...

Adrienne wanted to utter something, but nothing came out of her mouth. She couldn't help but close her eyes.

Jefferson lowered his head to kiss her forehead gently, moving down to the bridge of her nose and then finally to her lips. His lips softly pressed against hers.

After what seemed like years, he let go of her and held her face. "Little Specky, open your eyes and look at me."

Adrienne obediently opened her eyes, and she was met with a deep gaze that she had never seen before. Just one look from him was enough to make her lose herself in his dreamy eyes. She could not help but gasp, "Jeff..."

"Good girl!" He held her close to his chest and hugged her tightly, praising, "My good girl!"

"Jeff, w-what's going on with you?" Adrienne asked in a low voice. There was something wrong with this man. He was squeezing her so tightly she could barely breathe.

"I'm afraid, Little Specky," he answered honestly. His deep and low voice rumbled against her heart as he confessed, "I'm afraid that you'll get hurt, that you'll be scared, also that I'll never be able to stay by your side..."

Jefferson knew fear too!

He hadn't even blinked when he pulled the trigger at himself. She had always assumed that he was not afraid of anything, not even death... But now, he was telling her all of this.

She reached out to hold his waist and hugged him as hard as she could. "Jeff, I won't be scared as long as you're here. So don't be afraid."

Jefferson rested his chin on her head and rubbed against her. "Little Specky, you need to know that it's not that I don't want you to get involved in my affairs. However, the men I'm after are capable of doing anything, even if it costs their lives. You can't afford to offend them, do you understand?"

Adrienne wanted to nod, but he embraced her too tightly so she could not move. "I know you're worried about my safety."

"Now that you know, stop getting involved and don't ask questions," ordered Jefferson.

"But Jeff, you have to understand too. Even if I didn't ask you anything, as long as those people knew of my existence, they might come after me at any time. Before last night's incident, I had never asked about your affairs. In the end, I was still targeted. Now that I think about it, last night wasn't the first time. I suspect that they're the same men who tricked me into going out previously." Adrienne was quick when it came to analyzing the situation. She was only slow when it came to relationships.

She continued saying, "We need to be honest with each other, don't you see? At least, let me know what you are up to so that I know what to look out for. We can't let those people succeed with their schemes."

She did not want him to get hurt again because of her.
