My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1268

Mrs. Turner was the one who prepared Silvia's breakfast. It was pancakes, which tasted rather sweet. After just a few mouthfuls, Silvia was cloyed with the sweetness. However, she pretended to enjoy it and finished the entire plate. Then, she told Mrs. Turner, "Mom, I'm not going to school later. I'll stay home to keep you company today."

The winter break was just around the corner. Silvia had attended most of the classes that she had to, so it was fine to be absent for a day. Besides, she used to skip classes, and no one would ever care if she was present.

"It's snowing heavily outside. I will be worried if you were to go out. It would be better if you stay at home." Mrs. Turner was happy to have Silvia at home with her. She prepared some of Silvia's favorite snacks and said, "Silvia, why don't you invite Audrey, Reagan and Lemur over to the house? It will liven up the house with them around."

"Sure, that would be fun." Silvia hadn't seen Audrey for a few days now, so she did not know how Audrey was doing recently. Silvia thought that she could invite her over and catch up with her a little.

Silvia called Audrey first. "Audrey, are you at work?"

Audrey rolled her eyes and answered, "Are you checking up on me, Director Turner? I really have to tell you this. The government had declared that all employee were to go on a leave due to the heavy blizzard. Don't think that I'm just loafing about and not going to work, okay?"

Silvia said, "That's right, I'm calling check up on you. Since you're not at work, I think I'll have to deduct your upcoming bonus then. And oh, I should deduct your salary too..."

Audrey interrupted Silvia. "If you dare say another word about deducting my salary, believe it or not, I'll quit now."

Silvia smiled and said, "Please don't, Audrey. Wateria Corporation can't go on without you. Many people will be out of a job too if you were to leave the company."

"Silvia, you're trying to piss me off, aren't you?" said Audrey.

After messing around with Audrey, Silvia said in a solemn tone, "It's snowing heavily today. Since you have nothing to do at home, why don't you come to my house and we can have cheese fondue together? Having cheese fondue on a snowy day is the best feeling ever."

Audrey touched her belly and said, "I'm on a diet."

Silvia said, "So you're really not coming?"

Audrey said, "Can't you just persuade me for a little longer?"

Silvia said, "Oh my pretty Audrey, I beg you, we can't eat without you."

Audrey said, "Oh my beloved friend, I'll be right there, okay? Wait for me, I'll show up before you in half an hour."

Silvia said, "Okay, I'm going to the supermarket just down the street to get the ingredients. Call me when you're nearby and we can go home together."

Audrey nodded in agreement.

Next, Silvia called Reagan and Lemur on the phone. Silvia called Reagan but it was Lemur who answered the phone. "What's the matter, Boss?"

Silvia said, "Lemur, I'm having cheese fondue at my place. Come with Reagan."

Coincidentally, Reagan and Lemur had just received the news that all the classes that day were cancelled. They were about to give Silvia a call too.

Lemur stammered, "Boss, we can't go."

Silvia grew up with Reagan and Lemur. When she heard Lemur speaking hesitantly, she immediately knew that something was going on. "What are you guys hiding from me?"

Lemur replied, "Nothing."

Silvia raised her eyebrows. "Nothing?"
