My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1934

"How dare you call me an idiot? You're asking for it." Jefferson lowered his head and bit Adrienne's earlobe.

Adrienne did not dare to breathe or move. Then, his seductive voice sounded in her ears, "Baby, let's have a child."

Jefferson thought that by having a child, it could perhaps distract Adrienne from her focus on tracking down her parents' murderer. That way, Adrienne would not suffer a huge blow when the truth was finally revealed.

Then, she wouldn't get hurt.

She would always put her child first if anything happened. Perhaps this would make their relationship even stronger.

Adrienne wanted to refuse him. She hoped that he would give her a little more time, but she had no chance to say it out loud.

Adrienne soon forgot about traveling. There was only one thought in her mind. Jefferson, the Devil's stamina was so strong that it felt like an eternity had passed when they were at it.

After an intense session, Adrienne was left completely drained.

She laid in Jefferson's arms powerlessly. In a daze, she heard Jefferson's deep voice. "Baby, can you promise me one thing?"

"Sure." Before he could say what it was, Adrienne agreed to his request.

Jefferson lowered his head and rubbed her nose with the tip of his nose. He continued, "Little idiot, I haven't even said what it is yet, but you promised me so quickly. Aren't you afraid that I'll pull a fast

one on you?"

"Will you do that to me, though?" Adrienne opened her eyes slightly. Her eyes were more enchanting than usual, making Jefferson's heart waver as he looked at her.

He couldn't help but hug her even tighter, so tight that they could feel each other's heartbeat. "Well, I might. If I did do that one day, would you hate me?"

Adrienne was exhausted, but she thought carefully before giving her answer, "No."

Jefferson was perplexed. "Why?"

Adrienne shook her head. "I don't know."

Perhaps in her heart, she saw Jefferson as someone who treated her the best in this world. If he really did lie to her, he must have done it for her

sake.

"You little idiot!" Jefferson scolded in an affectionate voice. Adrienne didn't even know what lie he could tell, yet she refused to hold it against him. Jefferson really wanted to flick her forehead so that she could be smarter and not believe in others so unconditionally.

"Then tell me, what do you want me to promise you?" From Adrienne's voice, it was obvious that she was exhausted. All she wanted to do at that moment was to shut her eyes and drift off to sleep, but she tried her best to stay awake to listen to him.

"Promise me that you will live well no matter what happens in the future." Jefferson knew that no matter how hard he tried to conceal it, Adrienne would eventually find out what Sheridan had done over the years. The only thing he could do right then was to prepare her mentally and minimize the damage it would bring to her.

"Why are you suddenly saying something like this?" Instead of such deep conversations, shouldn't he be saying sweet nothings to her to make her happy after an intimate time together? Adrienne thought.

Well, Jefferson was unlike any other man. In his heart, she was probably just someone unworthy of his love and affection.

"Adrienne, you have to remember that although our lives were given to us by our parents, we are independent of them. Our lives are our own, not affiliated by anyone else," Jefferson emphasized.

"I know." Although she was drowsy, her mind was inexplicably clear. Once again, she was sure that the person Jefferson had met that night had something to do with her parents' murder.

It was only recently that she realized he would be extraordinarily nervous whenever it came to anything related to her.

Jefferson suddenly shouted out. "You don't know!"

Adrienne was taken aback.

"Why is he so fierce all of a sudden?" Adrienne thought to herself.

She rubbed her head against his chest and comforted pitifully, "I do know. Don't worry, okay?"

Realizing that he had overreacted, Jefferson immediately gathered himself and added, "Let me give you an example."

"Okay," Adrienne answered softly.

"If I did something against the law one day and the police had no evidence to arrest me, what would you do to me if you found out about it?" Jefferson asked.

Adrienne did not think much about it and replied, "If I can confirm that you've done something against the law, I think I will go ahead and expose you. If you violate the law, you will be punished. Everyone is equal before the law, and no one can be excluded."

Adrienne's answer was what he wanted to hear, but it was just a make-shift scenario. Since it was just a hypothesis, she could keep her senses and think rationally. If she was actually met with such a situation, that might not be the case anymore.

"What will you do after I'm punished by the law?" Jefferson asked again.

Adrienne shook her head, "I don't know."

"Think about it," Jefferson urged.

Adrienne thought about it seriously and responded, "I still don't know."

Jefferson sighed.

Adrienne continued, "Because I'm well aware that you will never do anything against the law. So why would I waste my brain cells on thinking about something that would never happen?"

Jefferson didn't know how to respond.

He didn't want to continue the conversation anymore, but he had to. "What I want to tell you is that even though you are my wife, what I've done has nothing to do with you. Don't blame yourself because of my actions, and don't be bothered by what other people think either."

"It's not like we're in the 12th century. Punishment of a crime doesn't extend to families." Adrienne leaned into his arms and chose a comfortable position. "I don't know what you're worried about."

"I meant psychologically. Don't feel responsible if I happen to do something against the law someday," Jefferson uttered.

Adrienne nodded. "Okay."

"Little Specky, I hope that no matter what you encounter in the future, you will always remember what you've promised me tonight. You must make sure that you will live well no matter what." Adrienne did not answer him right then, so he looked down and found that she had fallen asleep.

He said helplessly and dotingly, "My little idiot!"

Adrienne was already asleep, but Jefferson wasn't feeling sleepy at all. There was a tough battle coming up, and he had no time to relax.

There was no progress on Freya's case as new evidence could not be found. Everyone was anxious, but there was nothing else they could do.

Adrienne combed through the evidence over and over again, but nothing came up.

Before she got off work, she received a call from the station asking her to go over to help out.

There were limited numbers of pathologists at the station, so they would have to be available whenever they were needed. Adrienne didn't think too much about it nor did she expect that Zelson would be working there too.

Before she left, she called Jefferson and informed him, "I got a call from the headquarters to assist them on a case. I'm not sure what time I'll be done. You should head home without me and have dinner first. Don't wait for me."
