My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1848

Freya was several years older than Adrienne, and she had always treated Adrienne like her own sister. Hence, Adrienne always felt very comfortable around her. She often called her and said what was exactly on her mind.

Freya said something over the phone and Adrienne nodded with a smile. "Okay, you can get ready first. We will reach in about half an hour."

After Adrienne hung up giddily, Jefferson reached out and poked her in the waist to attract her attention. "I didn't know my little idiot was such a greedy pig."

"Don't forget that Freya's best dishes are all your favorites too. I called her on your behalf." Adrienne looked back at him and then buckled her seat belt. "We're leaving. You'd better fasten your seat belt."

"I guess I should thank you for always thinking of me," said Jefferson as he obediently fastened his seat belt.

"No need to thank me!" Adrienne started the car and reminded him, "I am making it clear right now. No matter how they try to persuade you to drink, you are not allowed to touch any alcohol."

"Noted, Dr. Carter."

"Don't act so reluctant. I'm just thinking about your injury."

"Then I'll thank you for your concern, Dr. Carter."

"I'm not concerned about you. Rather, because of your injury, I had to take leave too. Since I haven't been to work, I wonder if they've found anything new about the dismembered corpse case yet..." Thinking of the case, Adrienne tensed up again. "You have to get better as soon as possible so that I can go back to work again."

Upon hearing this, Jefferson frowned and said, "Little idiot, are you that unwilling to spend time with me?"

Adrienne whispered, "Wouldn't you be bored if the two of us just stared at each other every day?"

"Not at all!" he thought.

He would never be bored if he stayed with her for the rest of his life.

But his reply said otherwise, "If I stay with you for too long, I think I might become dumber. So I guess it's better if I recover quickly so you won't be around me all the time."

Adrienne focused on driving and did not pay attention to him any longer.

Since it was peak hour, there was a traffic jam. Their usual half-hour journey took them an hour instead.

When Adrienne and Jefferson arrived, Bruce and Tommy had already been waiting for quite a while. Because Freddy was busy, the two of them waited for Jefferson and Adrienne by the entrance.

Just as Adrienne slowed down and was ready to park the car. Tommy and Bruce ran over and asked, "Adrienne, why did Jefferson let you drive today?"

It was only then that Jefferson unbuckled his seat belt lazily and sat up. "I usually drive her around. So what if she drives me for once? Do you two have any problem with that?"

"We didn't see you earlier, Jefferson. That's why we asked." Bruce and Tommy both had a strong survival instinct. As soon as Jefferson questioned them, they answered the exact same thing.

Adrienne parked the car and greeted them, "Tommy, Bruce, I'm so happy to see you two."

"Let's be honest, Adrienne." Tommy said, "We don't live that far away from you guys. If you really wanted to see us, you could have just given us a call and we would have rushed over in a heartbeat. But you only have eyes for Jefferson."
