Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 524

Verian was in the room the entire afternoon, welcoming guests over and over again. Her face was stiffened due to long hours of non-stop smiling.

Night finally came and it was time for dinner. Verian wished the day would end earlier so that she could quickly go home with Heaton to get some rest.

The dinner was held out at an open lawn at the Banyan Tree Hotel. The venue was decorated to be fully westernized and looked quite romantic.

However, there was a huge disadvantage in holding dinner in an open space. There were many mosquitos on the open lawn in the summer, and Verian felt that she had gotten bitten a few times on her shoulders.

The emcee and guests spent their time entertaining the newlywed couple during the dinner. The whole thing officially ended at around ten o’clock.

On the way back to the Fudd Family Mansion, Heaton let the kids sit in the same car as Carter and Helen, while Heaton and Verian were the only two in the bridal car’s backseat, not including the driver himself.

The world was finally quiet and serene.

After a long day, they were exhausted to the core.

Verian leaned her body into Heaton’s embrace and asked him with her eyes closed, “Will the guests go to the Fudd Family Mansion to continue entertaining us later tonight?”

“The guests have gone back home.”

Verian took a deep breath. “I will be paralyzed due to fatigue if this continues.”

She lifted her hand and rubbed her cheeks before muttering, “My face has stiffened after smiling the entire day.”

Heaton hugged her and planted a kiss on her forehead. In a deep voice, he said, “We’ll go home and get a good rest.”

Verian agreed, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck. She then rested her body in his embrace.

The woman in Heaton’s embrace was deep asleep when they reached home.

However, Heaton did not wake her up. He alighted from the car and carried her in his arms into the mansion.

When Verian woke up, she realized she was lying in bed.

The splashing sounds from the shower tap could be heard from the room. Verian figured that Heaton was taking a shower.

Verian swept her gaze across the bedroom which had been decorated into a matrimonial chamber. The room used to be gloomy, dark, and cold. The sudden change into such a festive red must have been the doings of both Old Master Fudd and Madam Gaunt.

The bedsheet, pillowcases, and blanket of the bed she was sitting on were all an auspicious shade of red. The bed was scattered with peanuts, longans, and red dates as omens of fertility.

To make the atmosphere merrier, a paper cutout of the “double happiness” character was pasted onto the glass window.

Everything was peaceful and blessed.

Verian stretched to relax her sore shoulders before getting out of the bed to remove her makeup in front of the dressing table. The foundation applied on her face was rather thick today, her bridal make-up heavier compared to her usual makeup. After staying outside the whole day, she felt uncomfortable with such heavy makeup on her face.

Just as she was about to remove her make-up, the bathroom door opened and Heaton stepped out with a towel wrapped around his waist.

Verian had slowly gotten used to his half-naked body after seeing it many times. In the past, she would have wanted to dig a hole and hide in it after seeing his naked chest. Although she did feel a little shy upon seeing his half-naked body now, she could still put up with the embarrassment.

Heaton with his sturdy physique walked toward her and wrapped his slender arms around her shoulders. He then looked at the woman’s face through the mirror. “It’s our wedding night. What are you planning to do tonight?”

Verian bluntly answered without hesitation. “Sleep, of course.”

“Are you sure?”

With his playful gaze, the man stared at her face intently. It was only then that Verian realized she had fallen into his trap. Her face and neck reddened in embarrassment.

“Uhm, let me take a shower first.”

Verian pushed him away and frantically rushed into the bathroom, both her hands lifting the wedding gown off the floor.

As she was just about to head to the bathroom, Heaton grabbed her wrist and held her back. He then pressed his naked chest against her naked back and whispered into her ear, “Mrs. Fudd, don’t keep me waiting for too long.”

Verian was speechless.

She did not know where she has mustered the courage from when she turned around and kissed him on his lips before hurrying into the shower.

She washed her body clean and after coming out of the bathtub, she took her favorite perfume from the bathroom cabinet and sprayed her neck and wrist twice. This bottle of perfume was extracted from natural cape jasmine and Heaton had once mentioned that he liked the fragrance very much.
