Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 441

Verian laid in bed after she had showered. She applied a facial mask and played with her phone.

That was what Heaton saw when he walked into the room.

The man strode to the bed with his long legs. Then he sat on the bed before reaching out to take her phone from her; he tossed it to the side.

Verian removed her face mask off and asked, "Why'd you snatch my phone?"

Heaton stared at the moist on her face. "Phones emit radiation, and they’re bad for your eyes."

Verian loved to use her phone in bed. Heaton had warned her many times, but she could not get rid of the habit.

"I was playing a game with someone. It'll be rude to leave mid-game."

As she spoke, Verian crawled toward her phone. However, Heaton pulled her back and hugged her legs. "Who are you playing? Why don't you play with your husband instead?"

Verian's eyes lit up. "You’d want to play mobile games too? I'll register an account for you, and we can play together. I thought you're not into video games."

Heaton was a workaholic, so how could he possibly be interested in video games?

Heaton's eyes dimmed as he stared at her white tender skin and whispered, "I want to play with you, but I prefer games that we can play in bed."

"Ruffian!"

She blushed and crawled away from his embrace. Then she tossed a pillow at him, but he managed to catch it and threw it back at her. "Wait for me, honey. I'll take a shower and be right back."

Then he turned around and headed straight to the washroom. However, Verian suddenly jumped onto his back.

Heaton was worried that she might slip, so he immediately caught her. He said, "Madam Fudd, I didn't expect you'd be this excited?"

"You're the impatient one!" Verian snapped back at him. "Move aside. I need to wash my face. It's sticky and uncomfortable."

…

Heaton noticed that Verian was back on her mobile game when he came out of the washroom. He even heard a man's voice from the phone.

Heaton frowned. Then he got in bed and laid next to her. He glanced at her screen with his darkened eyes and asked, "Who are you playing with?"

"A few people."

"Who was the man who spoke earlier?"

Verian was stunned, but she stared at him with a funny look and said, "Are you jealous?"

The man immediately snatched her phone.

Verian said, "Heaton, don't be unreasonable!"

"Can't help it; I am always unreasonable."

Heaton had a smug look on his face. It was as if he wanted to taunt her; she could not do anything if he did not allow her access to her phone.

Verian did not know what to say to that.

She decided to ignore him and pulled the blanket over herself.

She spent a long time underneath the covers. However, Heaton also ignored her. He switched off the lights and slept with his back toward her.

After a brief moment, Verian peeked at him from the blanker. She thought he was angry, so she inched closer to him to embrace him with both arms. "Fine, I won't play with anyone else next time, but will you play with me instead?"

The man grinned in the shroud of darkness.

Heaton enjoyed it when Verian acted coquettishly with him.

Verian scoffed discreetly; she called him an unreasonable, arrogant man in her mind.

Heaton turned around and pulled her close before he cuddled against her. "Let's sleep."

"I can't sleep. Serene is back in North City, but she seems to have difficulty looking for a job. It seems like she has broken up with Dr. Jarret."

Heaton kissed her forehead and said, "Let's not meddle with other people's affairs."

One should not get involved in another's relationship issues; it was too troublesome.

"I don't, but Serene is one of my very few friends. Of course, I have to help her if she's in trouble."

Heaton did not say anything, so Verian assumed that he did not want to hear about it. She only brought it up randomly; it was not like she expected Heaton to help as Serene did not ask for such a favor.
