Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 168

Late at night, Heaton did not hear any movements from the guest room. He thought about how the woman had not eaten anything that night and frowned his eyebrows. In the end, he was not reassured, so he strode over and entered the guest room at that side.

When he opened the guest room’s door, he did not see Verian.

Heaton searched all over the room and could not find her. With big steps, he walked into the room and when he pushed the bathroom door open, he saw the delicate woman in the corner who had fainted on the cold tiles.

Heaton’s black eyes suddenly darkened. He walked forward and picked her up in one swift move.

“Riana!”

Heaton lightly petted her extremely pale and delicate face, but the little woman in his arms did not respond at all as if she had fainted deeply.

Heaton held her up horizontally and after placing her on the bed, he called Wilson Jarret while raising his hand to touch Verian’s forehead.

What the palm of his hand touched was a patch of heat.

Damn it, this woman had a high fever!

After the call connected, Wilson was still working his shift in the hospital. “Hello Heaton?”

“Is it convenient for you to come over to Swallow Bay now?”

…

Sunny came in from next door and was really bad at examining moods for clues. She ran over and held on to Heaton before starting to act coquettishly. “Heaton! Why are taking care of her so late at night! She must be pretending to be sick in order to trick you! You must not be confused by her!”

Heaton’s black eyes were sharp and cold, spreading an evil and shady aura. “Go away, don’t let me see you again!”

Sunny shook, looking at him puzzled. She touched her stomach and said securely with the knowledge that she had. “I’m not leaving. On what grounds are you shooing me away? I have your child in my womb!”

“Child?” Heaton directly made the matter clear. “I did not touch you, so how could you be pregnant with a child?”

Sunny was extremely shocked. “You-you… How did you know…”

“Do you think that I would really be tricked by such lowlife tricks? If you don’t leave, I won’t mind calling the police on you.”

The expression in Heaton’s eyes and his tone showed that he was definitely not joking. Sunny was so frightened that her legs turned wobbly. If this man really held onto the incident where she drugged him… He would surely break her neck!

Sunny was extremely afraid. She quickly stumbled out of the room. When she got to the main entrance, she bumped into Wilson.

Wilson frowned and strode over with the medical kit in his hands. He lightly said, “What’s going on?”

Heaton kept his stare on the little woman on the bed with a hard frown. “She’s most probably having a fever.”

Wilson took out the thermometer, looked at Heaton, and said, “You should do it. Stuff the thermometer under her armpit.”

Heaton pursed his lips and nodded. He had just touched Verian’s arm when she started resisting. “Don’t touch me… Heaton Fudd, go away…”

Heaton’s hand, which was holding the thermometer, stopped for a moment.

Wilson looked at him with a deep and meaningful look in his eyes. He made fun of Heaton, “It looks like the patient has a deep resentment toward you.”

Heaton did not like to be rejected, and what he did not like most of all was to be rejected by Verian. He stretched his hand and pressed her delicate hand to stop it from moving. His big hand stretched strongly into her clothes and placed the thermometer under her armpit.

Wilson smiled slightly, understanding as he did not say anything. He only said, “I thought that the only person who could make you ask me to come over to your house for an examination so urgently was Little Jelly Bean. From now on, it seems that there’s the addition of another person?”

Heaton kept quiet and did not deny it. His heavy sight only stared at the weak little woman on the bed.

Verian alternated between cold and hot in her dreams.

In the middle of the trance, it seemed that a pair of long and strong hands held her entire weak body up.

However, she thought that this person must not be Heaton Fudd.

Tears dropped from the corner of her eyes. She cried very sadly and fiercely, even sobbing lightly.
