My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1771

By the time his subordinates' replied, Jefferson already turned around and ran. His subordinates hurriedly followed him. Jefferson shouted, "Vincent, take your men and go around the left. Ian, you give chase from the right with your men. If he escapes, none of you will be leaving this place."

D*mn it! Jefferson cursed inwardly.

If it weren't for these b*stards making trouble, he wouldn't have left Adrienne at home alone and not being by her side while she had nightmares.

Normally, he would feel pitiful even when Adrienne sneezed. At present, she just had a nightmare, yet he could not stay with her.

At that thought, Jefferson was filled with anger.

He had to let these brats have a good taste of the suffering Adrienne had gone through from her nightmare.

After Jefferson hung up, Adrienne got inexplicably worried.

Earlier on, she seemed to have heard the word 'escape'.

Who would escape in the middle of the night?

What on earth was Jefferson dealing with?

Was he drinking with Freddy and the others again?

Although it was past midnight, Adrienne did not concern herself with whether Freddy was sleeping and called Freddy immediately.

"Adrienne, it's so late. Why aren't you asleep?" Even in the middle of the night, Freddy picked up the call instantly. His muffled voice came from the other end of the line. Obviously, he was not with Jefferson .

"Sorry, I dialed the wrong number. You can continue sleeping." After that, Adrienne called Tommy and Bruce. Jefferson was not with them either. They also didn't know who Jefferson would be with other than them, this late at night.

Jefferson's close friends did not know his whereabouts. The next people Adrienne thought of were his parents.

Adrienne really wanted to call the Hefner family to ask if Jefferson was at home or if they knew about his whereabouts. But it was too late; she was concerned that they would worry about him. Her phone was already in her hand and she was ready to call Jefferson's parents. However, she didn't make the phone call in the end.

After thinking for a while, Adrienne finally dialed Quill's number.

Quill's voice was muffled just like Freddy's, the voice of a person woken up from sleep. "Adrienne, I finally finished the case. I could finally sleep well tonight. It's already midnight. Why are you calling me?"

Adrienne went straight to the point. "Sergeant Scott, do you still remember when Jefferson appeared at the murder scene covered in blood?"

How could Quill forget? This was something he would remember for the rest of his life.

Why did Adrienne suddenly ask about it again?

Quill guessed the reason behind it but he didn't want to be blunt about it. It was best if he could deceive Adrienne. "Isn't this over? Did you call me in the middle of the night to talk about it?"

Adrienne said again, "You haven't told me how Jefferson was cleared."

Sure enough! Sure enough! Quill thought.

Quill knew that Adrienne was obsessed with this. Previously, he had fooled her, but it seemed that she would not let him go this time even if it was in the middle of the night.

"Heaven help me!" Quill exclaimed in his heart.
