My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1950

"It's because I haven't seen you and Adrienne for a long time. I wanted to come home earlier to see you two, that's why I rushed back."

Eudora argued with an aggrieved tone.

"But does that give you a reason to ignore your own safety?" Although he was worried, Sheridan still pretended to be fierce. "If you didn't make it back today, what would Adrienne and I do?"

Eudora knew that Sheridan was enraged because he was worried about her safety, but all that shouting made her feel wronged. She pouted and apologized pitifully, "I'm sorry! I'll be extra careful in the future."

Looking at Eudora, Sheridan's anger slowly subsided. He held her in his arms and softened his voice, "You really scared me today. I don't even dare to imagine what Adrienne and I would have to do if something did happen to you. Our family has the rest of our lives to see each other, and we don't need to rush to spend time together. Please always remember that safety comes first, okay?"

Whenever Eudora was away for work, Sheridan would remind her that her safety was the utmost priority. He would tell her not to rush back if she finished work late. In comparison, Sheridan would always try to come home earlier when he was away for business. His reason was that his two beloved women were at home, and they needed to be taken care of.

Their family lived such a beautiful life in the past that everyone who knew them admired them.

Adrienne always thought that such happiness would last forever, but she had never expected Sheridan to be the culprit behind Eudora's death.

"Mom..." Adrienne raised her hand to wipe away her tears. "Let's forget about the painful past and those who have hurt you... If there really is such a thing as reincarnation, make sure you think twice

before you trust anyone in your next life. Don't fall for a wolf in sheep's clothing again."

"A wolf in sheep's clothing? He protected you so well, and he wouldn't let anyone lay a hand on you, and yet that's all he is to you?" A sultry female voice came from behind all of a sudden. Adrienne looked back and saw a woman in a red dress standing a few steps away from her.

If it were anyone else, that person would have probably fainted from fear at the sight of a woman in red at a cemetery. However, Adrienne was still relatively calm. She racked through her mind, trying to recall anything about this strange woman. Soon, her mind clicked.

She recalled that Jefferson had mentioned a woman who liked to dress in red when she was kidnapped a few months ago. She learned from their conversation that the woman was known as Miss Ninetina.

At that time, the murderer and kidnapper were both captured, but not Miss Ninetina. Adrienne did not receive any news of her arrest later on either, so she was pretty sure that the woman in front of her was Ninetina. "You must be Miss Ninetina."

"Very well, you managed to guess who I am on our first meeting. It seems that you are not as stupid as I thought. You still have some of Stephen's characteristics in you after all." Ninetina stood a few steps away from Adrienne with a smile on her face as her long hair and dress fluttered in the breeze. However, since they were at a cemetery, the entire scene did not look beautiful but rather a little creepy.

"Do you know Sheridan?" Adrienne did not know why Ninetina was here, but she knew that this woman was not someone easy to deal with. Ninetina had come prepared, but Adrienne had nothing to defend herself with. She was even blocking her only way to escape.

"He is the man I love! I love him more than I love myself." Ninetina had never concealed her love for Sheridan. She loved him when he was just an ordinary man, and she still loved him deeply and

stayed by his side when he became a villain.

"You love him?" Adrienne couldn't help but want to laugh. She chuckled and asked, "But does he love you, though?"

"He loves my body." Ninetina knew what role she played in Sheridan's heart. She was well aware that Sheridan did not have any sincere feelings toward her. He only wanted to use her for her body and her capabilities but it did not matter to her.

As long as he needed her, no matter what it was for, she would be contented as long as she could prove herself useful to him.

Adrienne mocked in a cold voice, "So are you here at my mother's grave today just to say that? Well, let me tell you. There's no need for that. I do not wish to associate myself with any of you anymore."

"I know you don't want to see me, but trust me, I wasn't looking forward to seeing you either," Ninetina retorted.

"Why are you still here then?" Adrienne questioned.

"Because I want to tell you that if it weren't for you, Jefferson would never have found our hideout, and Stephen wouldn't have been arrested." Ninetina was smiling as she spoke, but her eyes were filled with apparent hatred for Adrienne.

Adrienne added, "Breaking the law comes with its consequences. No one can be excluded."

"Don't talk about your high and mighty morals with me. I'm not interested." Miss Ninetina shook the white envelope in her hand and uttered, "If Stephen hadn't asked me to give you this letter personally, I wouldn't have bothered to talk to you." "He asked you to hand me a letter?" Knowing that it was from Sheridan, Adrienne refused to accept it. However, she was curious as to what the

contents might be. As she was about to touch the envelope, Ninetina suddenly yanked it away, not letting her touch it.

She sneered. "Huh, he still thinks about you even though he's being locked up now."

Adrienne sensed that something was off and wanted to step back. However, her body went weak and her mind was going blank slowly. The next second, she had completely lost her consciousness as her body slid slowly along the tombstone and onto the ground.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, young lady." Miss Ninetina glared at Adrienne, who had fallen at her feet, and her eyes were filled with ruthlessness. "Stephen could never bear to lay his hands on you but look at how you treated him. You don't deserve to be his daughter at all. I will kill you, his unfilial daughter, for him today."

She took out a dagger and bent over. "Also, Jefferson is being too cocky, isn't he? How could he let you come here alone at such a crucial time? Isn't he afraid that something might happen to you?"

"If I didn't let you think that she was up here alone, how would I have managed to catch you so easily?" Jefferson's voice came out of nowhere, and there was a gun pointed at the back of Ninetina's head.

Ninetina raised her head and found that Jefferson was standing on her left. It was someone else who was holding a gun against her, while the rest of the people surrounded them. There were so many people present but she did not manage to notice their presence at all. It seemed like they had already laid an ambush and were waiting for her to fall into the trap.

She stood up slowly and mocked, "Jefferson, I thought you loved this woman. I didn't expect you to use her as bait."

A bait!

That word made Jefferson extremely displeased. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

He had never thought about using Adrienne as bait, but this time...

Ninetina laughed hysterically and cunningly. She continued, "Well, take a guess, Jefferson. Do you think that the drug will only knock your precious girl out, or will it kill her instead?"
