My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1866

What's more, the man's body was so solid that a big man like Quill bounced off it. Before he could figure out who that was, he cried out, "Ouch, who's that?"

Before the other party responded, Quill lifted his head and saw the person in front of him clearly. At that instant, he felt a chill running down his spine and thought that his career would end here. He asked, "Captain Hefner, how long have you been here?"

Quill remembered clearly that when he looked back at the door, Jefferson was not there nor anyone else was. How could Jefferson appear at the door in such a short time? Judging by the expression on his face, he should have heard the whole conversation.

Oh my God!

God bless him!

He could only pray that Jefferson didn't hear the conversation he had with Adrienne.

However, before Quill was done praying, he heard Jefferson's cold voice. "Quill, do you know what you are doing?"

Quill knew what he was referring to. He felt that he was in trouble. "Captain Hefner, I..."

Before he could finish his words, Jefferson interrupted him sharply, "Listen, remember to tell your subordinates that if there's anything, come straight to me. If anyone tries to go through Dr. Carter again, don't blame me for turning against them."

"Yes, yes, yes. I'll keep that in mind, Captain Hefner. I'll let them know right away," Quill wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and walked away in dejection. He thought to himself that it was a blessing that Jefferson did not fly into a rage. Otherwise, it would have been embarrassing.

Back to Jefferson and Adrienne.

Looking at the silly Adrienne, Jefferson questioned angrily, "Little Specky, it's obvious that you didn't want to do it. Was it that difficult for you to refuse them?"

"How do you know that it was difficult for me to do so?" In the past, Jefferson could always see through Adrienne's thoughts, but at that time, Adrienne didn't pay attention to it. She thought he would only notice when she was secretly cursing him in her heart, but never thought it was because Jefferson really knew her well.

Jefferson really wanted to pinch her cheeks. He scolded, "I knew you since you were born.

How can I not know everything that goes through your mind?"

Adrienne retorted, "I should thank you for helping me out then. By the way, do you want to go to the celebration party?"

"Celebration party?" Hearing this, Jefferson frowned and answered, "We took two days to solve such a small case. We even almost caught the wrong guy yet they want to hold a celebration party? Even if they weren't embarrassed, I would feel so."

"Captain Hefner, I know that you don't want to participate in such social activities, but you don't have to ridicule us like this. I'm not boasting but it's quite amazing for us to find the culprit in two days with so minimal evidence."

"Well..."

"Okay, okay. Save it. Let's not argue about this anymore." Adrienne grabbed the phone on the table and said, "If you're sure that you're not going, I'll let Quill know."

Jefferson held her hand and asked her to put down the phone, "Do you want me to go though?"
