My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1770

Jefferson was dumbfounded.

Jefferson knew that Adrienne could drive him crazy with a single word, but he was reluctant to let her go.

Adrienne uttered, "Um..."

"Idiot!" Jefferson yelled.

After that, he turned around and left, leaving Adrienne in a daze and blaming herself for the issue.

She swore that she would never drink alcohol again, not even a sip.

"Adrienne, Adrienne..."

From the room, Hodge called her several times. Adrienne finally heard him and replied, "Grandpa."

Worried, Hodge asked, "What happened between you and Jefferson?"

Adrienne shook her head. "We're fine."

Hodge said again, "It's bad for him to keep pestering you like this. We have to find a way to get him to give up on you."

Adrienne said listlessly, "What can we do?"

She and Jefferson had gotten their marriage certificate. As long as Jefferson did not agree to divorce, she had no way to stop him from pestering her.

Hodge gave it a serious thought before saying, "Tell him that you have a boyfriend. Then, he'll give up."

So what if she had a boyfriend? After all, Jefferson was her legal husband.

Although Adrienne thought so in her heart, she was afraid of giving Hodge too much of a shock. Therefore, she did not dare to voice it out. "Grandpa, that won't work."

Hodge said wistfully, "What about Zelson? Zelson has earned such a reputation at such a young age because of his capabilities, and he is a reliable man. If Zelson pretends to be your boyfriend, will Jefferson leave after knowing that he is his rival?"

"He won't," Adrienne replied firmly. Jefferson hated Zelson. If Zelson pretended to be her boyfriend, Jefferson's reaction would be unimaginable.

"Is Zelson unfit for the task or is there another problem?" Hodge queried.

"It's not like you don't know Jefferson's temper. If he's angered, he'll do anything." Adrienne did not want to drive Jefferson away in such an underhanded way. Jefferson was not an amenable person.

Since that wouldn't work either, Hodge had run out of ideas. He suddenly felt sorry for Adrienne who had been pestered by the awful Jefferson since she was a child.

It was a rare free weekend for her, so she had dinner with Hodge in the hospital before going home.

Without Jefferson at home, Adrienne had no one to talk to. The house felt empty.

Humans were strange animals. They were always having contradicting thoughts.

When Jefferson was at home, she hated how noisy he was.

When Jefferson was out, she always hoped that he would come back soon because it was too quiet.

He had been out for a few hours by then. Adrienne didn't know how his date was going, nor did she know whether anything would happen between them that night.

The more Adrienne thought about it, the more irritated and restless she became.

She picked up her phone and called Jefferson. For each of the several calls, all she could hear was a cold robotic voice on the other end - "The number you have dialed cannot be reached, please try again later."
