Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 55

Verian replied subconsciously, “Not enough…”

10 minutes was not enough to take a shower especially after seeing through the man’s scheme. It made her feel like the 10 minutes was not enough for her. She wanted to lock herself up in the bathroom for at least half an hour and would not come out if Heaton did not leave.

Verian thought of various methods to deal with Heaton. However, the man’s eyes were sparkling and charming, as though there were numerous stars twinkling in his eyes. He spoke in a deep voice, “I don’t have much patience. You better be fast.”

More scenarios ran through Verian’s mind as she heard what he said.

Indeed, Heaton had a filthy mind. She was more certain that Heaton wanted to do that thing!

How was different was he from Jensen?

He was just more handsome, rich, and imposing than Jensen… Other than that, the man was the same as Jensen. He was a total stud!

She grabbed her clothes and hurried into the bathroom. Heaton could not help but laugh as he saw her fleeing. ‘Did she really think that I wanted to do something to her?’

‘Even if I wanted to do something to her, it was not going to be tonight.’

Verian dawdled away for over half an hour in the bathroom. She nearly suffocated in the bathroom after taking a shower for more than half an hour in the summer heat.

Verian was only startled when Heaton, who was outside the bathroom, knocked on the door with his curled fingers. Immediately, she became alert.

‘Is Heaton trying to break in?’

Just when she was immersed in her imaginations, the man outside the door spoke in a cold yet clean baritone voice, “If you’re still not going to come out, we will miss the Fudd Family’s dinner.”

Stunned, Verian instantly felt embarrassed. Heaton wanted her to take a quick shower because he wanted to bring her back for dinner with the Fudd Family?

She put on her clothes and came out of the bathroom. Looking at Heaton’s meaningful gaze, she lowered her head silently out of guilt. A smile appeared in his deep eyes, “What were you expecting?”

“No, nothing… Aren’t we going back to the Fudd Family for dinner? Let’s go!”

She turned around and was about to walk out, but the man behind her grabbed her wrist and pulled her back. He pushed her against the wall as both their breaths mingled, “You purposely took me to the bathroom in your room. Are you sure you weren't expecting anything?”

Verian was sweating. Her face flushed red as she explained, “I did not ask you to shower in my room on purpose! It’s because of the shower facilities in other rooms…”

Calmly, the man’s voice cut off her words, “Don’t tell me that the showering facilities in the other rooms are broken, and only the one left in your room is working?”

Verian looked at him dryly. The corner of her lips twitched. “You know that too?”

It was clearly a fact. Why was she lacking confidence?

Heaton lowered his handsome face and pressed his thin lips against her tender lips. He murmured softly, “When it comes to things like this, women appear to be too enthusiastic if they take the initiative. I prefer to take things slow.”

He spoke in a playful tone. He was clearly trying to mess around with her!

Verian was about to push him away but the man had already let go of her. With one hand in his pocket, he walked out of the bedroom in a carefree manner. Verian clenched her fists and trailed behind him with a numb feeling in her head.

…

In the Fudd Family mansion, John Fudd had just come back from his trip. Little Jelly Bean and Zaynie were sitting on their grandfather’s right and left lap respectively.

Carrying the two little munchkins, the old master asked benignly, “Did both of you miss grandpa?”
