Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 45

After Verian Mont was done with overtime work, she gave Heaton Fudd a call. However, Little Jelly Bean picked up the call instead.

The little rascal asked her in a naive voice, “Monty, why didn’t you pick me up from school with daddy?”

“Because I had to stay back for overtime work today. I’ll pick you up next time okay?”

Since it was Heaton Fudd’s phone and Little Jelly Bean was the one who picked up the call, that meant the father and daughter duo should be home now right?

It seemed, Heaton Fudd actually did not wait for her after all.

“Monty, hurry up and come home now. Jelly Bean misses you.”

In the black Spyker, Little Jelly Bean was casually sitting on the car seat. Her tiny, tender hands grabbed onto a black cell phone that was bigger than her hand while another hand was holding onto her tiny feet. It was extremely adorable.

Verian Mont’s heart melted as she was listening to the call. She only replied with a single, “okay”.

On the other hand, after the phone call ended, Little Jelly Bean frowned and asked Heaton Fudd who was sitting next to her, “Daddy, it was you who wanted Monty to hurry up and come home, why do you want Jelly Bean to say it was Jelly Bean who wanted Monty to come home faster?”

Heaton Fudd raised his hand to pat his daughter’s head while lying with a serious look, “Because Monty likes Jelly Bean more. So Jelly Bean’s words would be better than daddy’s okay.”

“Really?’ Little Jelly Bean beamed up happily while squinting her eyes.

“Daddy, it’ll be my birthday in three days, can you and Monty celebrate it for me?”

The little rascal raised three fingers while staring at Heaton Fudd with her watery eyes. Heaton Fudd was stunned since he had almost forgotten that in three days, it would be Little Jelly Bean’s third birthday. If Verian Mont’s memory was not bad, she might notice Little Jelly Bean’s birthday fell on the same day as the child she delivered for her surrogate pregnancy.

It was about time for her to know her true relationship with Little Jelly Bean.

“Of course, what gift would Jelly Bean want for your birthday?”

“Daddy, I don’t want a birthday gift, could you not be mad at Monty?”

Heaton Fudd was stunned. He looked at her with a funny look and said, “What am I mad at her for?”

“This morning, Monty accidentally scalded brother’s hands. Monty didn’t mean it. Daddy, don’t blame Monty okay? Jelly Bean doesn’t wish to see you and Monty argue.”

Little Jelly Bean was known for her wit since her early childhood. This witty trait was no doubt inherited from him. Since that woman, Verian Mont was not too foolish either.

Heaton Fudd lowered his head to kiss his daughter’s forehead. He never answered the little rascal’s question. Instead, he spoke in a soft tone, “Didn’t Jelly always wanted a doll? Why don’t daddy give you a doll as a gift?”

The little rascal clapped her hands excitedly, “I want it, Jelly Bean wants to braid the doll’s hair and dress it up in pretty dresses.”

…

When Yellen Bodd sent Verian Mont into the Fudd’s family mansion, Verian Mont immediately told him to stop, “You don’t have to enter, I’ll get off from here.”

Yellen Bodd closed in with his face. He could see through Verian Mont’s thoughts. He teasingly asked, “You’re afraid of my uncle seeing me right?”

Verian Mont’s face began to flush as she stuttered, “I am afraid of being seen by other members of the Fudd family. Besides, I am your uncle’s wife, if anyone has seen you sending me back home, who knows what they’ll say behind our backs.”

“Verian, you wouldn’t be in love with my uncle right?”

The moment Verian Mont turned around, Yellen Bodd’s face inched closer. It was magnified in front of her eyes. She stunned while her eyebrows denied it, “How, impossible. I’m only acting with him!”
