My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1726

Jefferson's face fell and he spat out the pork that he had just eaten. "Adrienne, are you trying to ruin my appetite?"

She deliberately brought up gory details of a headless female corpse to make him lose his appetite.

Since she had decided to put on this act, she had to see it to the end. If Jefferson found out that she was messing with him, she would be doomed.

Adrienne took out her mobile phone and casually dialed a number. She acted like she was calling Quill. "Sergeant Scott, get your men to search if there is a butcher's knife nearby the crime scene today. Check if there are any butchers living nearby or if there are any butcheries. If my guess is right, the murder weapon used is most likely a butcher's knife."

"Yes..." Adrienne nodded and said, "Once you find it, send it to the forensic department. I'll take a look at it tomorrow."

Seeing Adrienne hanging up the phone, Freddy immediately gave her a thumbs- up. "Adrienne, you're surprisingly professional when it comes to work."

Adrienne pursed her lips and smiled...

Jefferson was upset. He said, "Freddy, remove all the meat. We'll have a vegetarian meal tonight."

All of them knew that Jefferson was hot-tempered and could not be offended. Freddy answered obediently, "Yes, Mr. Jefferson."

Adrienne immediately used her hand to shield the plate. "But I want to eat meat."

Jefferson stared at her and said, "Adrienne, would it kill you to just listen to what I say for once?"

She reluctantly lifted her hand and mumbled, "I told you, you would be freaked out by the story, but you denied that! Now you're blaming me?"

On the surface, Adrienne was acting like she was wronged. But, inside, she was actually very gleeful.

When she thought that even such an evil man could feel fear, she couldn't help but want to laugh. However, before she smiled, he glared at her fiercely. She quickly held back her laughter and said, "Whatever you say, Sir."

Jefferson kicked her again and said, "Adrienne, I'm this close to shoving you back into your mother's womb."

At the mention of her mother, Adrienne's smile disappeared instantly. Her blushed face lost its colour and she became as pale as a ghost.

Time seemed to travel back to the rainy night of August 8th from two years ago. Fresh blood and flesh filled the house.

In the farmhouse that her parents often went to for holiday, the murderer had used the cruelest way possible to send her parents off from this world. They left Adrienne and her sister behind forever...

It had been almost two years but she still hadn't found any clues about the murderer.

Her parents had been dead for two years. As their daughter, she still hadn't been able to do anything forthem.

Jefferson realized he had misspoken but he didn't know how to comfort her. He was used to being rough with her so he just kicked her again. "Adrienne, I was just teasing you, I won't actually do anything to you. Don't make such a pitiful face or people will think I'm abusing you."

Was he not abusing her?

No matter how upset she felt inside, she had to suppress her feelings in front of this dominant man for the moment. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and said, "I am pitiful."

Jefferson raised his eyebrows and shouted, "F*ck you!"

Adrienne refused to admit defeat. "Who f*cked who that night?"

That night, she was drunk and unconscious. She didn't know how she ended up sleeping with him.

After that, according to Jefferson the sc*mbag, she had violated him. She forced him onto the bed and took off all his clothes.

Adrienne still did not understand. Jefferson was so much taller and stronger than her. Did he not know how to defend himself from her?

What was the truth of the matter? There was no evidence at the moment, so Adrienne had no idea.

She guessed that Jefferson had probably made that story up to use as an excuse to marry her and bully her.

Adrienne felt that apart from work, she should go research domestic violence. If Jefferson dared to be mean to her again, she would use the law to protect herself. She would like to see how he can act so brazenly if he was squatting in jail.

Seeing that Adrienne was angry, Jefferson got crossed too. He said, "Adrienne, you fu-" "Jefferson, Adrienne, what happened to the two of you that night?" Freddy, who had been ignored on the sidelines by the both of them, suddenly asked out of curiosity. He really wanted to know so that he could tell all their friends.

Jefferson had never tried to hide his thoughts about Adrienne. "What do you think will happen if a man and a woman are alone in a room?"

However, Adrienne was unwilling to admit that she had anything going on with him. "There will never be anything between Jeff and I."

However, Freddy, who loved to gossip, did not believe her. "I beg to differ. Tell me. I promise not to tell anyone else."

Adrienne wanted to quickly cover up what happened between them so she hastily said, "Even if all the men in the world are dead, it is impossible for me to have anything to do with Jeff."

As soon as she finished speaking, Adrienne could feel the obvious fury rising in Jefferson.

"Oh, no. He's so egoistic and thinks that the world revolves around him. I'm being too obvious about rejecting him," she thought.

Since she had been bullied by Jefferson all her life, she knew how to deal with him. She quickly changed her tone and said, "No, no, no. What I meant to say was, even if all the other women in the world were dead, Jeff wouldn't want anything to do with me. We all know this. He's disliked me since young, calling me stupid all the time... Not that I can blame him, I am stupid indeed and extremely so."

Jefferson did not say a word but his expression was getting more ugly.

Sh*t!

Was that not the right thing to say either? Adrienne wondered.

She was so anxious as she combed through her mind trying to think of how to please him. When she couldn't, she knew she had messed up big time. He was definitely going to give her a hard time

for the next couple of days.

Dang...

She was so pitiful!

"Why didn't I watch my temper? How could I offend Jefferson!" Adrienne thought.

"Jefferson, I'm going to go get new dishes for you." Freddy wanted to help Adrienne. In fact, it wasn't that he wanted to, but if he didn't, he would suffer the wrath of Jefferson too.

However, it seemed like Jefferson wasn't buying it. He lifted his legs and put them on the table. He said with a faint smile, "Freddy, do you still plan to have your wedding on time?"

"Yes! Of course I do!" Freddy immediately admitted his defeat. "Jefferson, Adrienne, you two take your time chatting. I won't disturb you anymore."

"F*ck, some people just need to be taught a lesson!" said Jefferson with a cold smile.

If he didn't retaliate, all these people would just step all over him. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

He wasn't the kind of person who would let people take advantage of him.
