My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1845

"Grandpa, I haven't even spoken to you yet. Why are you chasing me away already?" Adrienne wanted to accompany him longer, but he didn't want to take up their time. He reasoned, "I've invited another patient over to chit-chat. It'll be inconvenient if you guys are here."

"Grandpa..."

Hodge waved his hand impatiently and urged, "Come on, leave me alone. Jefferson, take your Little Specky away. Do whatever you have to do."

Hodge's attitude was firm. Adrienne could not insist on staying, so she had no choice but to leave with Jefferson.

Walking out of the hospital, Adrienne was still silent. Jefferson put his arm around her shoulder and said, "Little Specky, Hodge is giving us a chance to spend more time with each other. Don't you get it?"

"How could I not?" She was sad because she knew precisely.

Her grandfather was sick and hospitalized, but he was always thinking about her. She had purposely set aside some time to visit him, yet he was worried that he was taking up her time. He had no idea at all that the happiest part of her day had always been when she was with him and sharing a conversation.

Perhaps many young people who felt that elders were annoying and that they nagged too much, but Adrienne had experienced things a lot of people never had to. Hence, she understood very well the importance of family.

If nothing had happened to her parents, perhaps she wouldn't have felt this way either. As they said, people only cherished what they had once it was gone.

"Since you understand why he chased us away, we should listen to him and do what we need to." Jefferson pulled her into his arms and said, "So cheer up."

"I spoke to the doctor earlier. He said that Grandpa's health isn't looking good, and it turned out that Grandpa had requested him not to tell me about it." Thinking of this, Adrienne felt even more upset.

Hodge was the one who needed taking care of, yet he was somehow the one taking care of her.

Jefferson understood her worries, but he didn't know how to comfort her. He tightened his grip around her and tried his best to give her some strength.

"Ring, ring, ring..."

The phone in Jefferson's pocket suddenly rang, breaking the heavy atmosphere.

Jefferson took out his mobile phone and said, "I've been injured for so long, and only now is Harold giving me a call. As if I would bother answering."

Thus, Jefferson rejected the call.

Adrienne shook her head and chided, "He is your superior. Aren't you afraid that he will make things difficult for you if you treat him like this?"

"He can try. I am not afraid of him," Jefferson said.

Adrienne said again, "Jefferson, if you didn't have the strong connections you had, you wouldn't last a day in the real world with that attitude."

"Yeah, but I have strong connections. So..."

Sometimes, that was just how fate was. Born to a wealthy family, Jefferson had naturally developed a very arrogant personality. This behavior was further intensified since he was talented as well.

Adrienne kept silent.

What else could she say?

"Ring, ring, ring-"

As soon as Jefferson put his phone back into his pocket, it started ringing again. This time, he didn't even bother to look at the phone. He dragged Adrienne to the car and said, "Let's go home."

"Are you sure you don't want to answer the phone?"
