Chapter 1765


    The two elders of the Hefner family lived in a vi provided by the country in Paramount Area of


    Chatterton Town. It was a half an hour''s journey from Adrienne''s workce and it wasn''t very far


    away.


    Before Adrienne and Jefferson went overseas, both the Hefner family and the Carter family lived in


    the governmental housing area in Paramount Area. Therefore, Adrienne knew Jefferson since she


    was a baby.


    After the Hefner family moved away, Adrienne''s parents passed away. During the period when


    Jefferson was out of the country, Jefferson''s mother, Britney, often invited Adrienne to their house


    for meals. Hence, Adrienne was very close to his parents.


    However, the thought that she was visiting the Hefner family as their daughter- in-w made her


    uneasy. They were already at the entrance of the house but she was still hesitating. "Jefferson, I


    didn''t bring anything for them, it doesn''t seem right to visit them without a gift. I don''t think I should


    visit them today."


    Jefferson gave her a nce. "You don''t have to buy any."


    Adrienne smiled tteringly and said, "It''s fine if I don''t buy it on normal days, but today I''m visiting


    as their daughter-inw... Unless I''m not visiting as their daughter-inw."


    "Don''t worry, I''ve already prepared everything." Jefferson had already foreseen her thoughts and he


    stopped at the roadside. "Don''t worry about the gifts."


    "You want to..." Before Adrienne could finish speaking, she saw Tommy walk towards their car,


    carrying two big boxes in his arms. "Jefferson, I''ve brought the things that you requested."


    Jefferson rolled down his window; he didn''t n on getting down the car. "Put them in the trunk."


    "Alright." Tommy put the boxes into the trunk of Jefferson''s car, and then came to the window and


    asked, "Jefferson, I haven''t visited your parents in a long time too, can I tag along for lunch?"


    "You can have lunch with them any other time, why do you have to tag along today?" Jefferson


    looked at Tommy coldly and said, "Go hang somewhere else."


    "But Jefferson, you are bringing Adrienne there, why can''t you take me along too?" Tommy looked


    at Adrienne, who was sitting in the passenger''s seat, and teased yfully, "Adrienne, you sure are


    Jefferson''s true love. You must cherish him, don''t break his heart."


    "Cough, cough..."Adrienne was startled by Tommy''s words. "Tommy, you know how I grew up, why


    are you saying this too?"


    "Stop talking nonsense Tommy, no one will think that you''re mute if you stay silent." Jefferson red


    at him with a cold gaze and Tommy quickly took a few steps back. Jefferson took the opportunity


    and stepped on the elerator, driving away and leaving poor Tommy behind. "Jefferson, I''m trying


    to help you, how dare you be so ungrateful. If it weren''t for me, you wouldn''t even be able to see


    Adrienne''s WhatsApp statuses."


    Remembering that Jefferson was the only person that Adrienne blocked from her WhatsApp


    statuses, Tommy felt much better all of a sudden. Jefferson the Devil still had a long way to go in


    pursuing the girl he loved.


    He still had plenty of opportunities to watch that arrogant Jefferson pursue Adrienne in the future.


    "You still remember that you have a family, huh..." The doorbell rang and Britney quickly opened the


    door without even checking who it was. Seeing that Adrienne was there too when she opened the


    door, she quickly swallowed the other half of the sentence, and a warm smile spread across her


    face. "Adrienne, you''re here. Come on in."


    Adrienne smiled and said, "Auntie, I''m here to visit you and Uncle. Here are some gifts that I bought


    for the two of you, I hope that you''ll like it."


    The gifts were bought by Tommy under Jefferson''s instructions, but Jefferson made Adrienne say


    that she was the one who bought them. Adrienne had no choice but to say so...


    "This is your home too, you didn''t have to prepare gifts. Why are you being all courteous to me


    now?" Britney took the gifts and ced them on a cupboard, then turned around and held


    Adrienne''s hands. "It''s been so long since Ist saw you, let me take a good look at you."


    Britney had always been weing to Adrienne, she was just like Adrienne''s mother, so Adrienne


    didn''t feel awkward when she looked at her like that.


    Britney then touched Adrienne''s face and said, "Adrienne, you''ve gotten skinnier. Look at your face,


    it has gotten smaller."


    Adrienne didn''t think that she had gotten skinnier but after hearing Britney say that, she touched her


    face as well. "I doubt so, Auntie. My appetite has been really goodtely, I feel like I''ve gotten fatter


    instead."


    Ever since she got married to Jefferson, he frequently bought her out for supper in the middle of the


    night. It was good enough that she didn''t gain weight.


    "You youngdies always say that, you won''t admit that you''ve gotten skinner no matter how skinny


    you are. How about this, I''ll make Jefferson go fetch you after work in the future, and you''ll eat


    dinner with us at our house. I''ll prepare all different kinds of nutritious soup for you and make sure


    that you''re healthy."


    If it was in the past, Adrienne would''ve probably agreed toe to the Hefner''s ce for soup, but


    not with her current identity. She didn''t know how the Hefners were going to react if they knew that


    she took advantage of Jefferson.


    Before getting to know their views, Adrienne felt that it would be safer to stay away from them.


    "Auntie, I don''t usually get off work on time, you don''t have to go through all that trouble."

    "You''re right, you shouldn''t neglect your work for food. If it''s inconvenient for your work, then I''ll cook


    the soup and let Jefferson bring it over to you. He''s idle and unemployed anyway; he has a lot of


    time." Britney had watched Adrienne grow up and she only had a son, so she always saw Adrienne


    as her own daughter. When she said that she wanted to take care of Adrienne, she would definitely


    do it, or she would be worried about her.


    Idle and unemployed.


    Adrienne undoubtedly agreed with Britney''sment on Jefferson.


    Knowing that Britney was trying to care for her, Adrienne nodded her head in agreement.


    The two women spoke for a long time and finally bought Jefferson up, but his function was only to


    run errands for Adrienne. The two of them didn''t even give him a nce and just decided how to


    use him.


    Jefferson was displeased, but he didn''t dare show his temper in front of the ’queen", ''so he could


    only hold onto his anger. He jokingly asked, "My dear queen, can you tell me which one of us is


    your biological child? Which one of us will be the one who inherits the throne in the future?"


    It was fine when he didn''t speak, but the minute he spoke, Britney shot him an annoyed re. "Why


    didn''t you tell me that Adrienne wasing? I could''ve prepared a few of her favorite dishes for


    her."


    "Mom, I''m your real child, not her." Since they were young, whenever Adrienne came to their house,


    she would be the only one who existed in Britney''s eyes as if he wasn''t there right next to them.


    Jefferson didn''t understand. Adrienne had average looks and a bad temper, why did Britney, who


    had a worse temper than he did, like her so much?
