My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1779

Freya responded, "You are different."

"What's the difference between us?" Eunice took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "In the end, he and I are the same kind of people. We are chasing after love."

Freya advised, "You like Jefferson, and Jefferson likes Adrienne... Regardless of whether Adrienne likes Jefferson or not, at least Adrienne doesn't fancy any other man. This is the difference."

Eunice's voice rose. "Freya, the seven of us grew up together. Adrienne is three years younger than the six of us. When she was a child, we all took care of her. I can understand that, but now she has grown up and she is an adult. Why are all of you still protecting her? It's okay for you to protect her, but why do you close me out?"

"Eunice, when did we do that?" Freya valued the relationship between the seven of them dearly. From an early age, they had protected Adrienne because of Jefferson and also because Adrienne was much younger than them.

Even after everyone grew up, it had become a habit for them to protect Adrienne. Old habits would die hard, but they had never thought of excluding Eunice.

"Freya, it's my business to like Jefferson. He can't change my mind; no one else can. Don't worry about it. We'll still be good friends in the future." Eunice tried to control her emotion. "Everyone is tired today. Let's go back. Well meet another day when we're free."

"Eunice..." Freya still wanted to say something but Eunice had already taken a few steps away. She could only look at Eunice's back and be worried silently.

Jefferson was not good at dealing with personal feelings. Adrienne was dense about such matters, and Eunice was stubborn. These three people...

There were numerous examples that a relationship involving three people would never end well. They were all Freya's childhood friends; Freya did not want any one of them to be hurt.

Adrienne declined Freddy's offer of sending her home and drove to the hospital to accompany Hodge. Hodge was in good spirits, which made Adrienne feel much better.

With Adrienne's company, Hodge was even more chatty. He talked with Adrienne for a long time about the most random things. The afternoon passed fast without them noticing. Adrienne stayed in the hospital, had dinner with Hodge, and only drove home when it was getting dark.

For the whole afternoon, Jefferson didn't call her. She didn't even know whether he had gone home or not.

Thinking of Jefferson, Adrienne could not help speeding up and rushed toward home.

Within less than half an hour, Adrienne had arrived at the underground parking lot. After parking the car, she hurried to the elevator and went to the floor where they stayed. She opened the door, but there was no light on in the house. It seemed that Jefferson did not come back. Somehow, Adrienne felt a little disappointed.

However, just as she turned on the light and was about to change her shoes, a deep voice came from the room. She knew that Jefferson was suppressing his anger. "You still know your way home."

"It turns out that you are back. Why didn't you turn on the lights?" Jefferson was mad every day. If he didn't lose his temper one day, Adrienne wouldn't be used to it. She didn't take his words seriously and asked, "Have you had dinner yet?"

Jefferson was sitting on the sofa in the living room but he was staring out of the window. He did not say anything to Adrienne.

Adrienne spoke again, "I'm asking you a question."
