Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 385

"Don't you only have a few friends because you stay at home all day? Since it's a high school reunion, why wouldn't you want to go? You can catch up with your old classmates."

Verian beamed at him as she stared intensely at him with her watery eyes. She said, "Heaton, you've changed. I thought you wouldn't like it if I were to attend the reunion."

Heaton reached out to touch her flat stomach. Then he lowered his head to kiss her forehead. He whispered, "When your belly gets bigger, I might not allow you to wander off. So, seize this opportunity to have some fun."

Verian snorted as she laughed out loud. She asked, "Will you keep me locked away like some national treasure when my belly gets bigger?"

"If you don't mind, of course, I'd be willing to do so…"

The man stood by the door as his lips shifted from her forehead to the tip of her nose. When he was just about to kiss her lips, Verian gently pushed him away. She was blushing.

"Little Jelly Bean is in the living room."

Heaton still gave her a passionate kiss. However, the kiss did not last too long.

Verian blushed again.

After Little Jelly Bean tossed her bag aside, she rushed to get Verian. "Monty, hurry up and bake me a strawberry cake., I'm starving!"

"Very well, I'll get right to it."

…

Verian got dressed and did her makeup on Saturday evening. Soon after that, Helen called her. She told her to hurry before she sent her the location of the restaurant.

Heaton was playing with Little Jelly Bean on the couch in the living room when Verian went downstairs.

Little Jelly Bean repeatedly blinked when she noticed Verian. She smiled and said, "Monty, you looked really pretty today!"

Verian wore light makeup, and she even used a concealer to cover her scar. That scar was almost invisible, and her skin looked much better.

When she walked to them, Heaton could smell the subtle scent of perfume from her. It smelled like Gardenia flowers, and it was heavenly.

"Do you have a first love amongst your high school classmates? Why'd you dress up so beautifully for this occasion anyway?" Heaton teased.

Verian was stunned, but she said, "How do you know I dressed up nice?"

He could not even see a thing.

Heaton frowned and said, "You never wear perfume, and yet suddenly, you applied some on yourself. Is that not dressed up for the occasion?"

The corners of Verian's mouth twitched. However, she remained silent.

She grabbed her bag and said, "I'll be heading off now. Don't wait for me for dinner tonight. I might be home late."

Heaton grabbed her hand, and teasingly asked, "Do you really have a first love there?"

Verian was speechless.

Even if she had one, she could never let him know!

"Why don't I send you there?"

Verian stopped him. "I'll have Uncle Lewis send me. Why would you want to go there? Do you want to meet my first love?"

However, Heaton already took her arm; he was heading out with her.

Verian caught up to him and said, "Are you going to leave Jelly Bean alone here?"

"The old man and Madam Leah are at home; they'll take care of her."

Verian did not know what to say to that.

Heaton would not want to meet her first love, right?

…

Heaton asked, "Which hotel are you going to?"

Verian took her phone out and glanced at the text before she said, "The Banyan Tree Villa."
