Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 631

Serene looked up after she realized what was going on. She noticed a few men were facing their backs at them. They were whispering among themselves and even laughing!

Serene instinctively looked down at what she was wearing…before immediately covering her face and bolting straight back to her room.

‘Ah! How embarrassing!’ Serene thought to herself.

Wilson held onto his forehead as he stared at that small figure. He then looked up toward his underlings and ordered in a cold tone, “Head out downstairs and give me ten laps right now! You’re not allowed to return if you guys are short even by a single lap.”

“Yes, sir!”

After he gave that order, Wilson brought some breakfast into the room.

Serene had already buried herself completely underneath the covers while clenching her fists, cringing in absolute embarrassment.

Wilson placed the breakfast down on a round wooden table and walked over to the bed, reaching out to pull Serene into his arms.

“I thought you said you were hungry? I brought you your food.”

Serene glared at him as she spoke with a flustered look, “Why did you have your work meetings at home? I didn’t even know we had guests over. I’ve completely embarrassed myself because of wandering out there dressed like this.”

Wilson gave her a funny look and said, “Why don’t I gouge their eyes out then?”

“That would be too much.”

Serene mumbled before crawling her way out of bed and sitting by the round table. She picked up her glass and took a huge gulp of water before eating her breakfast.

Serene heard jogging noises coming from outside. She was wide-eyed as she asked, “What on Earth are they doing?”

“I made them run laps.”

Serene was speechless.

Wilson picked up a soft scarf and draped it over Serene’s shoulders. “Although it’s not cold in here, you’ll catch a cold if you dress like this.”

Serene was drinking some herbal soup from an intricately-made porcelain bowl.

Wilson asked, “So how does today’s chicken soup taste?”

“It tastes good but no one will be making soup for me anymore when you get deployed over to the borders in a few days.”

Serene spoke in a depressing tone, “If I have to live alone in this massive house, I’ll feel very lonely.”

The woman reached out to hug his waist after she said that.

Wilson reached out to pat her little head as he said, “I’ll be home real soon.”

Serene looked up with her little face and asked, “Were you discussing when you’d be going to the borders at the meeting earlier?”

“Yeah.”

“Then which day have you guys decided on?”

“I still have to head over to meet the president to finalize some details at noon today.”

“Can you really resign when you return? Will the president of Z Country refuse to let you resign?”

Wilson replied with a calm smile as he stared at the woman’s innocent eyes, “You know, every single president wanted to strip all power from the Light Organization’s previous directors before this. Now that I’m handing it over willingly, he has no reason to refuse.”

Serene cracked a wide smile, revealing her row of pearly white teeth. She was beaming with joy as she said, “That’s great. That means we’d be able to start our pickled vegetables and fish store soon when we return.”

Wilson hugged her and said, “When we return, you can do whatever you want. I’ll do anything with you.”

Serene jokingly asked, “Then will you keep me company if I commit murder or arson?”

Wilson kissed her forehead and said, “I’ll hand you the knife and light the fuse. So, what do you think?”

Serene was nuzzling up against his nape like a little kitten as she said, “You’re amazing, Wilson.”

…

Wilson returned from the meeting at noon with a serious look on his face.

Serene rushed over and asked him frantically, “When does the president want you to depart, Wilson?”

“Tomorrow.”
