Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 320

Verian was stunned as she stared at him. Her heartbeat slowed by several paces before blinking at him. She said with a smile, “Because I wanted to drink and Serene said she had never been to a bar before so we went to one.”

Heaton raised his hand and flicked her forehead. He said, “No next time.”

“Okay.”

Verian nodded, got out of bed and looked for her slippers.

Heaton bent over, knelt on the thick carpet with one knee and helped put on her cotton slippers for her.

Verian looked at him while sitting by the bed. She smiled and said, “Are you taking care of me the same way as you did with Little Jelly Bean?”

“You’re more troublesome than Little Jelly Bean.”

Verian hugged his neck while nuzzling against his nape and said, “Do you feel tired being with me sometimes?”

“Good that you’re aware. I’ll not allow you to head to the bar without saying a word like last night.”

“I only wanted to experience how it’ll feel to sneak out to a bar and get drunk. It feels like getting caught by a higher authority after you found out.”

Heaton got up while carrying her in his arms. It felt like he was carrying a squirrel in his arms toward the washroom. He raised his brows slightly as he said, “We’ll set a curfew at home next time.”

“Curfew?” Verian laughed out loud as she said, “Why are you being like my dad? He gave me a curfew while I was in school. I had to get back home by eight back then.”

Upon mentioning her father, Heaton thought about her relationship with James. He had a subtle dim flash at the corner of his eyes.

“The curfew will be at eight next time.”

“Ah? I’m not a child anymore.” Verian pouted her lips.

Verian spoke with a smug tone after a brief moment, “But the curfew doesn’t only target me alone, right? Since this is a house rule, then you should also abide by it. I’m now an unemployed nomad, but are you sure you can return home every night by eight?”

After entering the washroom, Heaton placed her on the sink while pinning her down with both of his long arms. He stared at her with a burning gaze and said, “I’ll keep you company every night next time.”

His gaze and even his statement were serious. The only thing was, Verian thought about something inappropriate when she was paired with his burning gaze.

Verian covered her face with both hands.

This man spoke way too lustfully.

Perhaps, she should be saying that after spending so long with Heaton, she was influenced by him and everything could be usually pictured inappropriately by her even when it was serious.

“Hurry up and freshen up, I made some porridge.”

Heaton carried her down from the sink, squeezed some toothpaste and handed it to you. While Verian was in the middle of brushing her teeth, she suddenly jumped up and kissed his handsome face while her mouth was completely covered in toothpaste.

There was a bubbly toothpaste froth left on Heaton’s clean, handsome face.

Verian stared at his stunned look. It was obvious that he did not expect her to pull a prank on him so suddenly. She smiled while her mouth was completely covered in toothpaste.

However, while she smiled, her heart wrenched.

She had never expected the man in front of her whom she wanted to spend her entire life with, the father to her child would be her cousin some day.

How was this possible? Verian still could not accept this truth even till this moment.

Heaton wiped away the toothpaste from his face in an annoyed state. He patted her head with his huge hand while speaking in an extremely loving and gentle tone, “How old are you now, how immature. Hurry up and finish brushing, head downstairs for breakfast when you’re done.”

Verian’s eyes felt warm but she was afraid of him finding out, so she lowered her head to brush her teeth before incoherently replying, “Okay.”

…

Serene had just woken up. She did not open her eyes in her dazed state. With a fling of her arm, she hit a firm, warm ‘meaty wall’.

She was stunned so she felt it. She found it odd as she wondered when had her pillow become so stiff?

The moment she opened her eyes, the person lying next to her was not her pillow. Instead, it was…a clear majestic godly figure.
