My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1818

"Grandpa, you like him? Are you sure you don't want to beat him up?" No way, Adrienne thought. From what she knew, Hodge couldn't wait to chase Jefferson away with a stick every time he saw Jefferson. Why had he suddenly taken a liking to him?

"Don't you believe me? Honestly, it was hard for me to believe it too, but that rascal really has a way to make a person love and hate him." Seeing Adrienne's expression lighten up, Hodge deliberately dragged his words. "More importantly..."

Hodge purposely kept her guessing, which aroused her interest. She hurriedly asked, "What is it?"

Hodge chuckled and said, "The important thing is he likes you. As long as he likes you and treats you well, I'll remember it in my heart. There won't be any mistake."

Adrienne was stunned and stammered, "He... likes me? Did... he tell you that?"

"There was no need for him to tell me." Hodge pointed at his own eyes. "I've seen the world and I noticed it with my own eyes. He can't hide anything from me."

"You saw it? Grandpa, are you sure you didn't see wrongly?" Even Hodge could see it, how could she not see it herself? "But Grandpa, didn't you always say that he's not a good man and that he bullies me too much?"

Hodge answered again, "Think about it carefully. How did he bully you? Did he hurt you?"

"No," Adrienne replied bashfully. "He also told me that he liked me, but I didn't believe it."

"Silly child." Hodge poked her forehead. "How could I have such a foolish granddaughter? If he didn't like you, why would he follow you around every day like a pug?"

"A pug?" Adrienne was amused by Hodge's description. "Now that I think about it, he does kind of look like a pug."

"Look at how he treats other girls. For so many years, I've never seen him treat any girl that nicely, nor has he had any romantic relationships with anyone."

Upon hearing Hodge's words, Adrienne felt like that was indeed the case.

"Of course, it's just my opinion as an old man. It's your own decision whether you want to accept his love. After all, you are going to live with him in the future, not me."

"Grandpa, the truth is..." Adrienne felt bad for

not having informed Hodge of her marriage earlier, and currently, she was too embarrassed to say it out loud. She felt so unfilial.

Hodge's face was full of curiosity as he waited for Adrienne's shocking news. "What's the truth?"

"The truth is, Jefferson and I got married a few months ago." The more Adrienne looked at Hodge, the more guilt she felt. "We are now a legally wed couple."

"Well, well, well..." Hodge laughed happily. "Little Specky, you're finally married. I don't need to worry about your future anymore."

"Grandpa, are you not surprised at all?" There was only happiness and no surprise on Hodge's face. Adrienne was perplexed.

Hodge spoke, "Jefferson isn't the kind of guy to play by the books. He likes you. I'm not surprised at all that he managed to trick you into marrying him."
