My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1708

Levi nodded. "Okay, that will be our starting point."

Monique had her own worries and voiced them out, "But we're trapped in this house now. Unless Sheldon asks someone to call us over, we can't get close to his office at all."

"That's what brains are for, to think of a solution." Levi poked Monique's temple. "Come on, now that we still have some time, let your brain explore the possibilities."

"Levi..."

"No more questions. I'll tell you when we get back to Chatterton Town," Levi replied.

Monique told him, "Whatever it is, you have to put your safety first. I don't want to become a widow before I marry you."

"Don't worry about it. I'm still waiting to return to Chatterton Town and marry you. You'll get the title of Mrs. Levi," Levi retorted.

"Why Mrs. Levi?" Monique asked.

"The title of Mrs. Brown is reserved for my mother. Don't tell me you want my mom's position too."

"I do, but am I able to?"

"Girl, this is called empty ambition."

"Nonsense. I must build a good relationship with my future mother-in-law so that if you bully me after I marry you, there will be someone on my side."

"Relax, every woman who has married into my family is treated like a precious treasure. They have never been bullied."

"Really?"

"You'll know once you're married to me."

"At the end of the day, you still want to trick me into marrying you."

"Who was the one who brought up marrying me just now? I didn't say it first, did I?"

"All right, all right, let's not talk about this. Let's think about our next move."

"Okay, my dear wife!"

Once again, as Sheldon expected, Neil called back half an hour before dinner.

When Sheldon answered, Neil on the other end of the phone was still arrogant as ever. He said, "I can promise to grant you your request, but you have to do a video call to let me see Levi. I want to confirm his safety."

Sheldon smiled with satisfaction. He was proud that he had accurately predicted the outcome. He knew that Neil could not bear to abandon Levi, his precious son. "Colonel Brown, if you want to meet Young Master Brown, I'll have him escorted here right away."

Neil continued on, "Besides that, you have to ensure that I can contact him any time I wish. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that the objects you desire will be delivered to you smoothly."

"Of course. Young Master Brown is your son. You can definitely contact him anytime unless he doesn't want to see you," Sheldon replied. He left an out for himself in his words. When Neil called the next time, he could still prevent them from coming into contact by saying that Levi did not want to see Neil. That way, the responsibility wasn't on him.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

How could Neil not understand Sheldon's intentions? "Sheldon, I'm warning you, you'd better not play any tricks. If you dare to lay a finger on him, I'll make you regret what you've done," Neil warned Sheldon.

Sheldon smiled and responded, "Colonel Brown, I know very well what kind of person you are. How would I dare to play any tricks on you? I never wanted to trouble Young Master Brown. As long as I get what I want, I'll send him back and apologize to you personally."

Sheldon was the type of person to conceal daggers behind a smile. No matter how exasperated he was, no matter how much he wanted to behead the other party and kick his head around like a ball at the moment, he still kept a smile on his face, as if he was talking about a casual topic.

Neil warned him again, "Very well, as long as you understand. I'm just worried that you didn't catch my meaning and took my words as a fluke instead."

Sheldon said, "I wouldn't dare. Colonel Brown, please wait a while. I'll get someone to escort Young Master Brown over right away."

Soon, Levi and Monique were brought to Sheldon's office again.

Only Sheldon and Edward were in the office. Ben and Mark weren't there. Levi's gaze swept over the two of them, finally settling on Sheldon's back. "Mr. Gilbert, didn't I ask you to get your subordinates to prepare dinner for us? Why did you call us into your office again?" Levi asked.

Sheldon was already on a video call with Neil. He let Edward project the phone screen display onto a wall of the room. "Young Master Brown, I don't mean to bother you, but Colonel Brown wants to see you," Sheldon replied.

"Didn't he not care whether I lived or died? Why does he want to see me again?" Levi looked up at the projected image of Neil and asked with a smile, "Colonel Brown, what are you up to now?"

Neil, from the other end of the video call, rebuked Levi furiously, "You're such a useless piece of sh*t!"

Levi shrugged indifferently and replied in a taunting manner, "Yeah, I'm a useless piece of sh*t. It's not like today's your first time knowing that. Who are you putting up an act for, getting so mad at me?"

Neil swore, "B*stard!"

Levi smirked. His smirk was nonchalant as if he had also discarded all hope for himself. "Since I'm a b*stard and you're my father, you're an old b*stard too then."

Neil rebuked him again, "What a good- for-nothing son! Believe it or not, I'll let you die there."

Levi said, "Neil, I'm you and Mia's only son. Even if you don't want to save me, what about Mia? Even if she doesn't know now that you don't care about my life, she'll definitely have your hide if she finds that out in the future. Do you really dare to let me die here?"

Neil replied, "If it weren't for Mia, you think I'd care whether you live or die?"

"That's right, these are your true colors." Levi was still smiling. "There are only a few people in this room. Stop acting. Even if you keep acting, no one will believe it. You don't have to do that."

"You... You..." Neil was livid with rage. He pointed his finger at Levi and couldn't utter a complete sentence for quite a while.

At that time, Sheldon stood up and persuaded the two, "Colonel Brown, Young Master Brown, you are father and son. You guys should care about each other deep down in your heart. Why do you guys have to be so cruel to each other and ruin your relationship?"

Neil and Levi were smart; they were still putting on a show for him at present. Since they wanted to act, he would let them have their way. Whether he believed it or not was still his decision in the end.

"What other instructions do you have, Colonel Brown?" Levi asked.

Neil took a few deep breaths and said, "You b*stard, listen to me carefully. I'll call you again later. Just wait and see."

"I have something very important to do tonight, so I won't have time to listen to your preaching. Just say it now if you have something else to tell me," Levi replied provocatively.

"Y- y- you..." Neil stammered. He was so exasperated that words left him.

"Colonel Brown, since you don't have anything to say, I'll be taking my leave now." Levi did not care about Neil's exasperation on the screen. He led Monique away. After he took two steps, he turned back and added, "Mr. Gilbert, I'm starving. Tell your chef to hurry up."

"Alright," Sheldon answered, but he was thinking to himself, "You brat, you're dying soon yet you're still so arrogant. Do you really think that we won't dare do anything to you as long as Neil is around?"
