My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1899

After paying for the skin care products, Freya went to look at bags of famous brands. Cheery as Adrienne might look on the surface, she was actually cursing Jefferson in her heart.

If it weren't for the fact that she'd slept with him, she wouldn't be that poor. Right then, she even had to mull over for a long time if she wanted to purchase a branded bag.

In the past, Freya would only buy branded bags when she was abroad as she could save thousands of dollars from just that. However, she bought three bags in a single shot that day, and the amount of money she had lavished on them was enough for a person to travel abroad.

Now that Freya had bought a lot of things, Adrienne chose to join in the fun and get one for herself, too. She had her eyes on a mini crossbody bag that could barely fit anything else other than her phone and wallet. However, it would still cost her nearly 3,000 dollars.

Seeing that she had to spend another big sum of money, Adrienne knew that she had to be ready to lead a frugal life for the next few months in order to pay the credit card bills.

At that instant, her heart seemed to be bleeding from the thought.

"Hey, Freya, Adrienne, you girls are here to shop, too?" Eunice's voice suddenly came from behind, and Adrienne's body froze upon hearing that. Was that a meeting between two love rivals?

Adrienne still felt uncomfortable upon recalling the incident she had with Eunice. Furthermore, she'd long forgotten Eunice's existence, as she hadn't met her for a long time.

Freya turned around and greeted, "Eunice, what a coincidence to meet you here."

Adrienne smiled awkwardly. "Hi, Eunice."

Eunice surveyed around. She knew that wherever Adrienne was, Jefferson would surely be there. But when she found that he wasn't, she was delighted but slightly disappointed at the same time, as she could not see her sweetheart. "Adrienne, have you seen Jefferson recently?"

Yes, she did!

Not only had she seen Jefferson recently, she was with him every single day. They had even spent the better part of the night before together, and some parts of her body were still aching because of how overbearing Jefferson had been.

Adrienne wanted to say that, but before she could speak, Freya, who was beside her, had already answered, "Eunice, there's something I think you should know. Jefferson and Adrienne had registered their marriage a few months ago. They are now a lawfully wedded couple."

In the past, Freya would always be polite to Eunice considering the fact that they had known each other since young. Nevertheless, after what she had experienced with Freddy, every time Freya saw a person who reeked of the potential of being a mistress, she would shut them down immediately.

It wasn't as if Eunice didn't know Jefferson's feelings for Adrienne. So why was she still putting on airs there?

"Th-they got married?" Eunice was stunned for a while, but she quickly put on a smile as she said, "Congratulations, Adrienne."

Adrienne smiled without saying anything.

She pictured that Eunice must've felt like wringing her neck right then. Not long ago, Eunice had even asked Adrienne to persuade Jefferson to go on a date with her, so she was sure to be shell- shocked by knowing that they had tied the knot since before.

"Adrienne, then why didn't you guys hold a wedding ceremony? Is it because Jefferson's family doesn't approve of the marriage, or is it because of other reasons?" Eunice clearly knew that Albert, Jefferson's father, wanted her to get together with Jefferson instead. Albert had even gone to discuss with Eunice's father about that matter a few days ago. Just when she had caught a glimmer of hope, it was completely shattered.

Adrienne smiled and said, "It's happening soon. We'll surely invite you to the wedding by then."

"Great, I'll be waiting for the invitation then." Eunice smiled, as if she wasn't in love with Jefferson, and as if she had never asked Adrienne to set up a date for her. She said, "Freya, Adrienne, we haven't hung out together for quite some time, do you mind if I join you?"

Freya was worried that Adrienne was not a match for Eunice, so she wanted to turn her down, but Adrienne stopped her. She smiled politely and said, "Freya and I are quite exhausted from all the shopping we've done. We're going to get something to eat first."

"I heard you. There is a good dessert shop on the eighth floor. Let's go there, it'll be my treat." Eunice was aware that she was most unwelcomed, but she didn't care about it as she thought she had always been the one who was wronged.

Adrienne didn't refuse Eunice's good will. They then sat by the window of the dessert shop.

Eunice flipped through the menu, and without even asking them what they would like, ordered three servings of dessert according to her own preference. She then handed the menu to the waiter and said, "Please be quick."

Were all women who wanted to become mistresses this bad at reading the room?

Adrienne was at a loss for words too,

It wasn't a big deal. Since no matter what she ate, as long as it was with a person she didn't like, it wouldn't taste good, anyway.

Eunice reached for her mobile phone and said, "Since the three of us haven't hung out together for a long time, let's take a picture together to commemorate this time."

Before Freya and Adrienne could agree to it, Eunice pressed on the shutter button and took a photo of the three of them in a flash. She said, "Adrienne is always the most eye- catching one every time we take a photo together. After all, her glasses caught all the limelight."

Those words were not pleasing to the ears at all.

Though Adrienne was not planning to pick faults with her, Freya couldn't stomach it when Adrienne was being bullied under her nose. "Eunice, your makeup is a bit thick today, no? It's cracking as we speak."

Eunice's face fell. "Really?"

Freya added, "I always thought that Adrienne is the most beautiful among the three of us. She was born beautiful, and her skin is fair and supple. Even without makeup, she's more beautiful than most people."

Freya could not help but reach out to flick Adrienne's face gently. She said, "Just look at her face. Look how supple her face is. It's as tender and smooth as a hard-boiled egg."

Adrienne was actually very good-looking, but she always had thick black glasses on that covered half of her face. In addition to that, she usually worked in rigorous work clothes, and during her rest days, she would be in a casual suit. Thus, she looked like an 18-year-old high school student, or someone younger, and naturally wouldn't attract much attention.

On the other side, Eunice was wearing a tight skirt and had thick makeup on. Other than that, her mouth looked like a terrifying black hole when she spoke, but only she herself didn't realize that.

Adrienne knew that Freya was trying to protect her, and happiness sprouted from the bottom of her heart. "Aw... Freya, you don't have to compliment me like this."

Eunice seemed to not have noticed that Freya was teasing her. She said, "Freya, even though the three of us grew up together, you've protected Adrienne like you're protecting a calf ever since we were young."

"Adrienne is younger than me, and she's like my younger sister. Who else can I protect if not her? You? But Eunice, you were born at the beginning of the year, while I was born at the end of the year, and you're a few months older than me. By right, you're considered an older sister to us." The reason Freya went out shopping with Adrienne that day was because she wanted a change of mood. Since there was someone ruining her mood, naturally, she would retort without mercy.

At a loss for riposte, Eunice felt so embarrassed that she started to fiddle with her phone. She sent the photo to Tommy and said, "We're at the shopping mall in Southgate. Do you guys want to come over and have dinner with us tonight?"

The reason Eunice sent that message to Tommy was obvious. She wanted to let Jefferson know where Adrienne was so that he would come. As for why she didn't send the message directly to Jefferson was because Jefferson had blocked her ever since she had sent a private message to him on Whatsapp the previous time.
