My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1498

Seeing how his Mommy was able to fend Julien off, Lawrie felt that Julien was less scary than before. He slowly became less defensive against him and did not even mind when Julien reached out to pinch his face twice while they were eating.

Lawrie felt sleepy after dinner. Vanessa was busy bathing Lawrie, so Julien decided to help to wash the dishes. He was a little clumsy as he had never done this before. Fortunately, he managed to wash everything without much trouble.

After Vanessa put Lawrie to bed, she came by the kitchen and saw that Julien had almost finished cleaning up the kitchen. Warmth suddenly crept into her heart. It turned out that it was really relaxing to have someone helping out when she was exhausted.

As Julien was cleaning up, he felt a rather intense gaze on him. He turned over to look at Vanessa, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" "Nothing," Vanessa replied, shaking her head. However, she could not help but laugh when she saw Julien wearing an apron. "Say, Mr. Kyle, you look quite dashing doing housework in that apron. You look more handsome than ever," she teased.

Julien looked at her without saying anything. He had only realized now how funny the apron must have looked on him since the apron was in Vanessa's size, and she was much smaller than him. It looked like he was wearing a bib.

He was in the midst of pulling the apron off when Vanessa stopped him and said, "Don't. No one's around anyway."

She had a point; no one was around to see him, and after all, Vanessa had already seen all of him.

As Vanessa felt her heart fluttering with joy, she started to talk more. "Mr. Kyle, it's really incredible for a man like you to set foot in the kitchen. I'm honored to have witnessed such a scene. Do you think I should snap a photo on my phone for memory's sake?" She teased.

Julien glared at her. How dare she think of taking a photo of him in this state?

Noticing the cold look on Julien's face, Vanessa lowered her head and explained, "I'm just joking, I wouldn't dare to do that. You don't have to get so mad."

"Childish," Julien muttered quietly.

"Yes, yes. I'm childish and you're the most mature, sensible and charming person," Vanessa mused. With Lawrie's illness getting treated and Julien by her side, Vanessa was filled with joy and naturally became chattier. "I think Lawrie and I have been very lucky these days," Vanessa said.

Julien asked, "What do you mean?"

"You know, the doctor came by this evening and informed me that they've found a match for Lawrie's bone marrow transplant even though he told me in the morning that it would not be easy to find a match. I was so astounded by this news that I just couldn't believe it," Vanessa explained.

It was fortunate that Julien's bone marrow was a match; otherwise, things would have been much more difficult. However, this was something Julien wanted to keep to himself. His son was already three, but this was the very first time he did his duty as a father. He told Vanessa, "I guess it's karma. You deserve this."

Vanessa sighed and said, "God must have heard my prayer, so he sent an angel to save Lawrie. Because of this, Lawrie will definitely grow up to become an excellent and handsome young man."

Julien stayed silent.

It was not heaven that heard her prayers... It was him.

As a graduate from a prestigious university, how could she be so superstitious? If God really were that great, then there would not be anyone suffering from hunger or poverty. Global warming would not even be a problem anymore.

Vanessa said again, "Julien, thank you! If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have enough money for Lawrie's treatment."

"Lawrie's my son," Julien emphasized.

"No, he's not," Vanessa pouted.

She also wished dearly that Lawrie was Julien's son. However, the chances of that happening were too slim. She would not even dare to dream of it.

Julien rebutted aggressively, "If I say so, then he is."

Vanessa said sadly, "Lawrie isn't that lucky."
