My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1768

When Jefferson went out of his way to be nice to Adrienne, her first reaction was not to thank him, but to think that he was ill.

D*mn it!

Jefferson wanted to pry her head open to see just what was going on inside her head.

Usually, he would insult her. However, Britney was there that day, and he had made the decision to treat her better. He couldn't give up halfway. Therefore, the angry Jefferson kept his expression neutral and said, "Don't worry about me, I'm good. Do you want more food? I'll get some for you."

"Jeff... I- I can do it by myself." Adrienne stammered out of nervousness because of Jefferson's unusual behavior, for fear that he would play a dirty trick on her in the next second.

This must be yet another new trick of his, she thought.

Definitely.

Otherwise, he would never treat her so well all of a sudden.

Adrienne looked at Jefferson, searching his eyes for an answer. However, there didn't seem to be anything unusual in his gaze.

No way!

Previously, when he came up with new pranks to play on her, his eyes would exude a proud and mischievous glint.

Jefferson was full of wicked ideas. No one could foresee what he would come up with.

Adrienne grew more and more scared. It was as if a strong gust of cold wind was blowing behind her, making her hair stand on end.

"Adrienne, eat up before the food gets cold." Britney knew that Jefferson usually mistreated Adrienne. This sudden change would definitely be unbelievable to Adrienne, so she stepped in to help Adrienne. "Jefferson, eat. Don't talk too much at the dinner table."

"All right." In Britney's presence, Adrienne felt more at ease. She knew that Jefferson couldn't act rashly in front of Britney.

Jefferson thought to himself, "Mom, you wanted me to take better care of Little Specky, but now you're stopping me. What's going on?" A woman's mind was hard to decipher, Jefferson told himself. Unfortunately for him, he was destined to get involved with women throughout his life.

Albert had always been quiet. After he greeted Adrienne, he said nothing more. At that moment, Albert couldn't help but look at his son. It occurred to him that not only was Jefferson arrogant, he was also ignorant. Didn't he realize that Adrienne was frightened by him?

It was indeed true that Jefferson had not noticed Adrienne's fear. When he misunderstood her conduct as not accepting his kindness, he glared at Adrienne as if warning her that he would teach her a lesson when they got home.

During that meal, Adrienne ate with mixed feelings. In the end, she did not eat much but pretended to be full instead.

Before leaving, Britney took Adrienne's hand and said, "Adrienne, this is your home. No matter when you want to come here, you'll be welcome. Jefferson is back here now. If it is inconvenient for you to come on your own, I'll get him to pick you up."

Since her parents' death, Adrienne's only source of maternal love was from Britney. A sudden sadness overwhelmed her and she almost shed tears. "Thank you, Auntie."

Seeing that she was about to cry, Jefferson pulled Adrienne into his arms and said, "Adrienne, you still have work to do. What are you waiting for?"

Why was Jefferson hugging her outlandishly with Britney there? Adrienne squirmed and tried to escape from his arms, but he did not intend to let go at all.

On the other hand, Britney was pleased to see the display of affection between them. She said, "Adrienne, go to work then. Your work is tiring, you can't even rest well on weekends. Let Jefferson drive you to work."

Adrienne said, "Goodbye, Auntie!"

Jefferson waved goodbye to Britney. "Mum, go keep old fogey company."

Britney watched them leave with a satisfied smile.
