My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1973

Adrienne, who was observant, was the first to see Sierra approaching them.

For the past couple days, Sierra seemed fine, and it was as if things had gone back to normal for her. However, Adrienne was still very concerned about her.

She had never experienced getting hurt from romantic relationships, but she had gone through painful times due to what had happened in her family.

She understood the pain of being abandoned and betrayed by someone and that was why she thought that Sierra might not be as calm as she appeared on the surface.

"Sierra, I'm not really familiar with the city. If you don't mind, could you come shopping with me?" In fact, Adrienne wasn't someone who liked to trouble others, but she thought that she could at least use such an excuse to bring Sierra out to distract her.

"Sure." Sierra agreed without hesitation. She turned to look at Jefferson and said, "But I don't know if this guy here is willing to hand you over to me though."

Jefferson was highly reluctant to let Adrienne and Sierra go shopping by themselves, but he understood what Adrienne was trying to do.

It was said that women understood each other better. It would be good to let Adrienne get a breather with Sierra too. Jefferson thought.

However, stubborn, he said, "Why wouldn't I be able to let her go with you? I see her so much everyday that I'm starting to get sick of it."

Adrienne was speechless.

"Excuse me?"

"Who was the one getting sick of the other here?"

She was perfectly content living all by herself up in the mountains, but who was the one who came and pestered her and even refused to leave her side?

It seemed like she could bore no hope that she would ever hear anything nice coming through that man's lips in this lifetime.

She used to think that Jefferson was taking advantage of her. However, she eventually came to a realization that he was just bad at expressing himself.

Maxwell immediately glared at Jefferson and said, "You two can go shopping and buy whatever you want. Don't bother about him." "Grandpa..." Jefferson whined.

Maxwell waved his hand and shut him up, "Enough of those nonsense."

Sierra and Adrienne exchanged glances and smiles. They held each other's hands and said, "We'll be on our way then. We'll have lunch outside."

Seeing that Adrienne and Sierra were getting along so well, Maxwell nodded happily and said, "I'll get the driver to take you two there."

"Make sure you take care of yourself, Little Specky. Get some rest when you feel tired. Don't tire yourself out." Adrienne had been pregnant for less than three months, and they had yet planned to announce that joyful news to their family. Jefferson was worried that Adrienne would strain herself and not tell anyone that she was tired.

"Don't worry, I won't let your wife tire herself out." While speaking, Sierra and Adrienne were already out of the front yard.

Staring at Adrienne's back as she walked further away, Jefferson felt a little moody all of a sudden.

"Ahem!" Jefferson was brought back to his senses at Maxwell's voice. "You're obviously a fool for love. Can't you just stop being so harsh when you speak?"

Jefferson replied, "You don't understand, Grandpa."

Maxwell said, "Please, I'm no spring chicken. How could you understand if I don't? A couple shouldn't always be berating each other. You must give compliments when the time is right. As a wise man said, women all fancy a little flattery."

"I think you're right, Grandpa. I won't be able to keep you company here then. I have something to attend to at the moment." When Adrienne left, Jefferson's heart had left with her too.

He was worried that Adrienne would exhaust herself, or that she didn't know how to strike up a conversation with Sierra. There were so many things to worry about. How could he sit still?

"Okay, you can go now." Maxwell was well aware of the situation and did not stop him. He was glad that the younger generation was getting along so well with each other.

Sierra had always been upbeat and extroverted. She had a driver but she always preferred to drive herself.

She always said that if she sat in someone else's car, her fate would be handed over to that person. She would much rather hold her fate in her own hands.

"Adrienne, can I ask you a question?" Adrienne's eyes were focused on Sierra but she didn't talk much so Sierra took the initiative to get a topic rolling instead.

Adrienne nodded and said, "Fire away."

While they were at the red light, Sierra glanced at Adrienne and said, "Do you love Jefferson?"

Sierra wasn't the only person who had asked her that question. In fact, Adrienne had often pondered over that question too.

She was not sure whether she loved him but she did know that she wouldn't be able to get used to living without him. Perhaps she might not even be able to continue living.

She thought about it and answered seriously, "I met Jeff as soon as I was born. We have known each other for more than 20 years. Without realizing it at all, he has integrated himself into my life. Everything in my life has him in it."

When it came to Jefferson, Adrienne couldn't help smiling as she said, "When he is here, I would always get annoyed at him for being loud, but when he's not, I will miss him. I suppose that's what they call love."

"I'm sure Jefferson would be over the moon if he heard what you just said." Judging from Adrienne's expression, Sierra could already tell that she truly loved Jefferson.

The green light flickered to life. Sierra drove with one hand and patted Adrienne on the shoulder with the other as she advised, "Adrienne, just tell him that you love him. You should cherish the days you two have together."

"I know. Thanks, Sierra!" Adrienne said as she cut the topic off.

Sierra focused on driving and did not speak anymore. The mutual link bridging them was Jefferson, but they couldn't keep talking about him, could they?

Adrienne really wanted to talk, but she was afraid that she would say something inappropriate to hurt Sierra's feelings.

It was not until Sierra had parked the car and that they were on the escalator that Adrienne had gathered the courage to ask, "Sierra, can I ask you a question?"

"You want to ask about Johan and I, am I right?" Sierra was a particularly perceptive person, while Adrienne was a blunt one.

Adrienne had been wanting to ask Sierra about it several times but ended up refraining herself from doing so during their entire journey to the mall. So Sierra already knew what she wanted to ask.

With admiration, Adrienne looked at Sierra. "How

did you know?"

Sierra said with a smile, "Because it's written all over your face."

Instinctively, Adrienne raised her hand and touched her face. "Oh, am I that obvious?" Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Sierra was amused by her lovely appearance and said with a grin, "Can't be any more obvious than this."

Adrienne said again, "Then if you don't mind, can I ask if you've really forgotten him?"

Sierra said, "I used to think that it was impossible to give up on a person who you've loved for what seemed like a lifetime. But two days ago, my feelings for him died completely."

It was not until she had given up that it finally dawned on Sierra that her obsession with him in the past was but her stubbornness.

She felt so much relieved the moment she had made up her mind to give up on him. At that moment, she thought that it was a fortunate thing indeed to leave a man who never loved her.

If one could fall in love in a heartbeat, one could fall out of love in an equally short time.

Fate had a wicked sense of humor. Speaking of the devil, Johan appeared before them.

Adrienne was the one to catch sight of Johan first.

She instinctively wanted to block Sierra's sight, but unfortunately, Sierra had already noticed him.
