Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 498

At a roadside breakfast stall.

Both Xylean and Little Jelly Bean ordered a small table full of breakfast. It was filled with all kinds of tofu, bean curds, fried dough sticks, crepes and dumplings… those foods looked very appetizing.

Little Jelly Bean was a little foreign toward a breakfast like this since it was not often that she got to eat these. The little rascal pointed at the bean curds and said, “Godmother, Monty loves eating that but I never had it before!”

Monty finished all of the bean curds before she could try any back then.

Xylean scooped up a spoonful of bean curds, moved it toward her mouth and said, “Go ahead and try some then.”

Little Jelly Bean opened her mouth and ate it. Xylean then asked with a smile, “Does it taste good?”

Little Jelly Bean squinted her huge eyes and nodded her little head as she said, “It does!”

As the both of them ate, a tall man walked into the small breakfast stall.

As Little Jelly Bean was enjoying a delicious fried dough stick, she noticed Yandel walking in and she called out, “Uncle!”

Xylean was stunned so she looked up at him as well while asking, “What are you doing here?”

“Heaton has already arrived and he’s currently keeping Riana company in the surgery room. I was worried about you hanging out with Little Jelly Bean alone.”

Xylean laughed and said, “Yandel, are you worried about me hanging out with Little Jelly Bean or abandoning her and running off alone by myself?”

Yandel raised his brows slightly but he did not say anything as he sat next to Little Jelly Bean.

Little Jelly Bean asked while holding up a fried dough stick, “Uncle, do you want some breakfast?”

Xylean intentionally said, “Jelly Bean, your uncle isn’t used to eating these. He prefers high class food so you don’t have to force him to eat any.”

Yandel pouted his lips before staring intensely at Xylean with his dark eyes. He spoke after a couple of seconds, “Who told you I’m not used to eating foods like these? Jelly Bean, I will eat with you.”

Little Jelly Bean picked up a fried dough stick with her greasy little hands before handing it over to Yandel as she said, “Uncle, this dough stick is crispy and delicious.”

Yandel replied calmly, “Sure.” He was not used to eating greasy food. However, he held back and took a few bites out of it.

Xylean took a couple glances at him as she found the whole situation funny and said, “No one is forcing you to eat.”

Was she not clear toward his intentions yet? All that he wanted to do was to be a little closer to her.

…

In the patient’s ward at the hospital.

Verian was asleep for a really long time and her entire body felt as if she had been run over by a truck. She felt as if all four of her limbs did not belong to her.

She was drowsy, tired and in pain. Her entire body felt limp and she could not even muster a single ounce of strength.

When she opened her heavy eyelids, she was greeted with a worried, handsome face.

“You’re awake? Is there any pain that you’re feeling? I’ll get the doctors.”

As Heaton spoke, he was getting ready to leave and call for the doctors.

“Heaton…”

Verian called out to him with her weak, hoarse voice.

Heaton promptly returned to her side as he held onto her little hands with his huge hand. He said, “Hey, I’m here.”

Verian’s eyes were completely red and it was unsure if they were caused by her crying from the agonizing pain from the delivery or was she trying to show her sorrow since she was pouting her lips as she stared at him. Her teary eyes looked very sad.

Heaton reached out to move her hair away as he rubbed her cheeks with his fingers. He asked with a gentle tone, “What’s the matter?”

“Did you mean what you said earlier?”

Heaton was speechless.

It took a couple seconds for him to react to it. He then recalled what he said and replied with a laugh, “You actually believed that?”

“Who knows if you’re lying or not.”

She was aware that all those horrible things he said earlier was to provoke her to give birth to her child. However, Verian could not help herself from feeling wronged and angry.

The man was staring at her with his dark burning gaze. He then said, “You heard all that trash talk but you seemed to have missed that single truth from all of that. I don’t mind repeating it though.”

“What? It wouldn’t be merely trash talk now, right? I have just given birth and I am very weak at the moment. You can’t agitate me again though…”

The man replied in a clear, deep magnetic voice, “I love you dearly, Verian Mont.”
