My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1605

Seeing that Levi was agitated, Monique asked, "Young Master Brown, I didn't seem to have provoked you, did I? Why do you look like you want to gobble me up in anger?"

Levi gritted his teeth. "Yeah, right. You didn't provoke me. I'm just overthinking!"

Why on earth did he help her? He should have just let her die of poison.

Monique looked around and saw herself lying on the quilts. "Levi, did you tell Cecil and Ronald that I was bitten by a snake?"

"Don't tell me that you still wish to keep it a secret from us," Cecil chimed in, holding a grilled fish in her hands. "Monique, why are you so silly? Do you really consider Ronald and I as useless brats?"

Monique shifted awkwardly and said, "I didn't mean that. I just don't want you guys to worry about me."

Cecil knew that Monique concealed the truth from them because she didn' t want to frighten them. She was just teasing her. "You must be famished. Eat some fish first. Don't be so silly in the future. Let us know at once when you’re injured. If any misfortune befalls you, the three of us will be in distress."

"Yes, it's my fault. I won't do this again." Monique glared indignantly at Levi. Was he even a man? She told him not to tell Cecil and Ronald, but he broke the promise and told them anyway. What a jerk!

"Cecil, take care of this ungrateful woman here. I'm going to prepare lunch with Ronald." He swallowed down his frustration and left. He was afraid that if he lingered on, he would not be able to hold back his desire to strangle her.

Once Levi left, Cecil huddled close to her and pried, "Monique, you don't even know how worried Young Master Brown was the night before when you were in a coma. Looking at how anxious he was, I would have thought that he's into you if I didn't know you both are usually enemies!"

Monique shot her a warning stare. "What are you blabbering about? He’s not concerned about me, he's just worried that he would be in trouble if anything occurs to me. After all, we're a team. If anything happens to anyone, the rest will have to report to the higher-ups."

"You can say that again." Cecil nodded. "Nevertheless, he was really on pins and needles. No matter the reason, you have to thank him for saving your life. Don't put on a long face. He doesn't owe you anything."

Monique muttered, "I know. It's just that the moment I see him, I instinctively want to keep my distance as if he has any ulterior motives."

Cecil couldn’ t suppress a laugh. "Miss Zellweger, I'm astounded. To be frank, our

Young Master Brown has never really offended you, am I right?

Monique retorted, with some miff, "He hasn't really done anything to offend me? Are you kidding me?"

Cecil inquired, "What has he done to offend you?"

Monique pondered the matter. It seemed that he had never really done anything to offend her. She uttered a lame excuse. "He called me a tomboy."

Cecil chuckled. "I have to agree with him."

Monique said grudgingly, "Cecil, are we even friends?"
