My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1930

As he watched Jefferson leave, the smile on Stephen's face gradually disappeared.

He sighed deeply and said, "Ninetina, I've gone too far this time, haven't I?"

Ninetina, who had been standing behind him all the while, sat beside him and wrapped her slender arms around his neck. "Stephen, no matter how cold-blooded you are in front of others, your love for Adrienne is undeniable.

"Really?" Stephen smiled helplessly, bitterly. "If I really loved her, I wouldn't have let her lose both her parents. I blame myself for it every day."

"But Stephen, you should know that ever since you've chosen this path, there is no turning back. You should know that if it weren't for Adrienne, Jefferson wouldn't have found us so quickly. I know that there are some things you can't bear to do, but I can do them for you..." Ninetina advised.

Before she could finish her sentence, Stephen grabbed her by the hair and said fiercely, "She is my daughter. If you dare to touch her..." He gradually increased the strength of his grip, "You know the consequences." "Huh..." Although Ninetina did not dare to move her head, she still continued provoking him. "That woman was the love of your life but you could still see someone chop her up into pieces before your eyes. Why are you playing the role of a loving father now?"

Her words sent Stephen into a fury. The hand which had been pulling at her hair went for her neck as he hissed, "Shut up!"

"Stephen, you can keep up the act in front of those who don't know you. But I know that in the face of money, love and affection are nothing to you." Even though he had his hand around her neck, Ninetina wasn't afraid. Every word of hers struck at Stephen's weakness.

She had been with him for too long, so long that she understood him as well as she knew herself. She knew what he loved the most, and she also knew what she meant to him.

"You already know what I'm capable of, how dare you..." Stephen slowly released his grip, bowed his head and bit Ninetina's neck. "As long as you're obedient, I can give you whatever you want. Otherwise..."

"You can give me whatever I want?" Ninetina put a hand on his chest and patted it lightly with a smile. "I've always wanted your heart. Can you give it to me?"

Stephen did not answer her question. Instead, he pressed her body down onto the sofa and pressed his burning lips against hers.

Ninetina had always known what she was to Stephen. Even if she couldn't get his heart, she knew that he needed her, whether it be for his career, mentally, or physically.

She hugged his neck again and took the initiative to put her red lips close to his. "Stephen, whether it was the old you or the new you, you're irreplaceable to me. You used to have a wife and a daughter, so I waited for you silently and loved you from the shadows. And I will continue to do so forever."

"But Adrienne is different. You were a good husband and father, so she loved you and could even give up her life for you. But now, to her, you're just a heinous sinner. She brings people like you to justice everyday. Once she knows that you're the murderer that she has been looking for, she will not hesitate to arrest you."

"Stephen, you have two options now. One is to get rid of the obstacle in your path, just like what you did back then with your wife, or you can do nothing and let that obstacle ruin everything you've been working for all these years."

Ninetina had gone on and on, but Stephen gave no response. However, she knew he heard her because he had bitten her in warning.

She really knew him too well. She knew exactly what he wanted to hear, and what she needed to say to give him a push.

Ninetina began again, "She is your daughter, and you gave her life. If it weren't for you, she would not even exist in this world. Even if you did something to her, you're just taking back what was yours in the first place. She's lived for over twenty years now, I think she's had her fill of enjoyment."

"Of course, this is just my personal opinion. It's your choice whether to listen to me. But I want you to know that no matter what you choose, I'll follow you and love you like I always have. Even if you wanted to jump into a lion's den, I would jump in with you. Stephen, I was given a second chance at life, and my life belongs to you."

As Ninetina spoke, Stephen remained silent. But he continued to thrust so forcefully that until nothing but moans could be heard from her.

After a while, when everything had quietened down, Stephen's hoarse and glum voice sounded above Ninetina's head. "I loved that woman so much. We lived together for more than 20 years. I thought we would stay together forever, and I thought she would understand me. I really didn't foresee that after she had found out what I've done, not only did she not try to think about it from my point of view, she even wanted to expose me."

Stephen fiddled with Ninetina's sweaty hair and slowly closed his eyes. "I loved her for so many years. I've always loved her so much, since the day I married her until when our daughter grew up, but she wanted to destroy everything that I've worked so hard to build over the years. How could I have let her live?"

Every time Stephen brought up how much he loved her, Ninetina would be upset. That woman was already dead, but he still missed her.

But there was no need for her to be jealous of a dead woman. She said, "Stephen, that's all in the past. No matter what happens, I will be here for you forever."

"Ninetina, remember every word you've said to me. If you dare to betray me..." Although he did not finish his sentence, Ninetina could guess the consequences.

Fortunately, the thought of betraying him had never crossed her mind.

Ninetina asked again, "Stephen, do you think Jefferson will follow along obediently?"

Stephen stood up and said, "No."

"Then why did you let him go?" she queried.

"What was I to do if not that? Kill him?" Stephen snickered. "Do you know who the people behind Jefferson are? Don't you know what will happen if we lay our hands on him?"

"The Yard family are far away in the capital. They can't interfere from there. So what are we afraid of?" Ninetina asked.

"Far away in the capital?" Stephen straightened out his coat, which was previously messed up by Ninetina, and said, "They are far away because Jefferson is still alive. If anything happens to him, they won't be 'far away' anymore."

At that time, one of Stephen's underlings showed up and reported, "Stephen, the car is ready. We can set off now."

"Alright." Stephen nodded. "Clean up the place. Don't leave any traces behind."
