Chapter 1741


    "Grandpa, in your eyes, am I really that amazing?" Adrienne pouted her lips wittily. "I haven''t


    forgotten how much you insulted me in front of Jeffersonst night."


    At the mention of Jefferson''s name, Hodge shook his head and sighed. "Jefferson is a handsome


    man, but he isn''t a decent one. He doesn''t have any respect for anyone. A man like that will get into


    trouble sooner orter. His future wife will definitely suffer a lot. I said all that because I didn''t want


    him to get any ideas about you."


    "Grandpa, I know you have good intentions." Adrienne knew how much he loved her, but she had


    no idea that her grandfather thought so poorly of Jefferson.


    If one day she brought Jefferson to the hospital and told Hodge that this was her marriage partner


    whom she wanted to have children with, Hodge would probably faint from anger.


    It seemed that she couldn''t have a child with Jefferson. She had to think of another way.


    "I''m telling you, whoever marries that man must have sinned too much in their past life." Hodge had


    no idea that Jefferson had already set his eyes on his granddaughter. Otherwise, he would definitely


    not be making remarks like this.


    "Grandpa, the sinner is your granddaughter," Adrienne shouted in her heart, but on the surface, she


    remained smiling. "That''s right.


    Whoever is with him will suffer."


    She wondered how long she would have to suffer.


    She prayed to God that hopefully, Jefferson would get bored with this game soon.


    At this time, Jefferson did not stay still. After leaving Adrienne, he made a phone call to his close


    friends, and they all gathered to have a drink at the bar.


    Jefferson hadn''t eaten much, therefore his stomach was empty. Hence, although his alcohol


    tolerance was pretty high, he got drunk a lot faster than the others after a couple of bottles of beer.


    Freddy raised his ss and cheered, "Jefferson is drunk. The three of us should go on drinking."


    Tommy and another friend, Bruce Bell, raised their sses and rallied, "Okay! Let''s carry on


    drinking."


    However, Jefferson grabbed Freddy and asked, "Freddy, tell me. How the f*ck did you get Freya?"


    Jefferson felt like he was better than Freddy in every aspect. Yet, Freddy managed to get Freya so


    easily. Meanwhile, he was still struggling to pursue Adrienne.


    This was so d*mn infuriating!


    "I chased after her with my sincerity." Freya was one of Freddy''s proudest achievements in life.


    "Jefferson, you must have seen my heart for Freya these years. It is always best to be honest with


    one''s heart. If you are sincere, anyone will fall for you."


    Jefferson mmed his hand down on the table as he angrily said, "Am I not sincere enough to


    Adrienne?"


    "Jefferson, we all know how sincere you are, but if Adrienne doesn''t know, then there is nothing we


    can do." The person who interrupted the conversation was Tommy. He smiled and added, "Anyway,


    since you guys have already gotten this far, why don''t you just marry her?"


    They were ymates who grew up together. So, his thoughts were exactly like Jefferson''s.


    However, the current problem was that although Jefferson and Adrienne were married, they hadn''t


    gotten far at all.


    At the sight of Jefferson''s slight hesitation, his close friends saw through him immediately. Tommy


    was surprised and continued, "Jefferson, when you came back to Chatterton Town from Avend


    that night, nothing happened between you and Adrienne, right? She was drunk in your arms, acting


    all cute and asking you to carry her. Are you sure nothing happened?"


    "D*mn. Who the f*ck would believe me if I denied it now?" Jefferson thought.


    All his friends turned their attention towards him and waited for his answer.


    Jefferson replied, "Shut up!"


    Although he didn''t answer, they already knew what that implied.


    If they didn''t hear Jefferson himself say it, they would never believe that he had such good self-


    control. He had been in love with Adrienne all his life. How could nothing have happened between


    them?


    It seemed like they had to think of another way to help Jefferson pursue Adrienne. Bruce, who had


    always been thoughtful, interrupted, "Jefferson, if you can''t get through to Adrienne, why don''t you


    go look for Mr. Hodge? He''s the only family she has left now. Knowing how filial she is, as long as


    the old man approves of you, Adrienne would definitely agree."


    "Bruce, please think before you speak." Jefferson had already married Adrienne. The issue at


    present was he didn''t want her just as his wife on paper; he wanted her heart too.


    Bruce felt wronged and questioned, "What did I say wrong?"


    "Get someone to drive me to the hospital," said Jefferson as he got up and staggered out of the


    room.


    Bruce asked, "Jefferson, what''s wrong with you?"


    Jefferson grew impatient. "Just do as I say. Why do you have so many questions?"


    The three of them called for a driver to take Jefferson to First People Hospital in Chatterton Town.


    When they saw Adrienneing out of the hospital, they realized why Jefferson was moring to


    come to the hospital.


    Jefferson really was a fool for love. He was so drunk that he could barely keep his head straight, yet


    he was still filled with thoughts of Adrienne.


    Freddy, Tommy, and Bruce got out of the car and greeted Adrienne. "Adrienne, why are you here?"

    Seeing her friends who she grew up with, Adrienne was thrilled. "I came to visit my grandfather.


    Why are you all here? It''ste now, is one of you sick?"


    Freddy pointed to the car behind him. Unexpectedly, when he looked back, Jefferson had swayed


    down the car and was walking toward them. "Little Specky, I''m drunk. Shouldn''t youe over and


    hold me?"


    Jefferson was drunk!


    Adrienne frowned in disgust and mocked, "Mr. Hefner, why did you drink that much? You can''t even


    walk straight. I guess age has caught up to you."


    "Little Specky, you''ve been really disobedienttely. I swear I''m going to pinch you to death." With


    this in mind, Jefferson walked to her and hugged her before he leaned his weight on her body.


    "Adrienne, I didn''t turn off the gas in my house. I should go back first." The rest of the men all found


    excuses to leave, giving the drunk Jefferson a moment with Adrienne.


    Adrienne wished she could just throw this alcohol- reeking man into the sewers. However, he did


    not know what she was thinking at all. He was still shouting, "Little Specky, do you really not know


    what''s on my mind?"


    "What''s on your mind?" Wasn''t he a heartless man? He only had things to worry about when he


    was drunk.


    "Do you really not know what I''m thinking, or are you just pretending that you don''t know?" asked


    Jefferson in a daze.


    "What''s on his mind?" Adrienne wondered.


    She seriously thought about it. She recalled the picture of the girl she saw in his study, and then his


    date with that girlter. She figured that that must be it. "Do you want to tell me about the girl you


    like?"
