My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1706



"I thought that you were a bird- brain, but you're surprisingly quite clever sometimes," Levi ribbed Monique, putting more food on her plate. "Let's eat up while we still can. Who knows if we'll even get the chance to eat another meal." Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"You should eat more. You were the one exhausted for these past two days," Monique said as she put some food on Levi's plate too. They ate happily, almost as if they weren't prisoners being held captive. Sure enough, Levi and Monique had guessed right. Right after they finished eating and put down their cutlery, Sheldon sent someone to escort them to the study. On the way, a thought popped into Monique's mind. She said, "Levi, don't talk to them about sending me away first. Since we came together, we have to return together."

Levi stopped abruptly and looked at her seriously, asking, "Two days ago, who was it who told me that either one of us should try our best to escape when we were in danger?"

Monique answered, "I did say that, but..."

Levi caressed her head and promised her, "I know you care about me, but you must leave first if the opportunity arises. As long as you return to Chatterton Town safely, I promise you that I'll return there safe and sound too."

Monique grasped Levi's hand and asked in a low voice, "Levi, tell me, what exactly are you planning? I'm saying this now, you can't face it all alone."

Before she could hear Levi's answer, their escort looked back and prompted them, sounding impatient, "Young Master Brown, Mr. Gilbert has been awaiting your arrival in the study for a long time." Levi patted Monique's hand and assured her, "Don't worry."

Monique bit her lip and didn't ask any more questions. She felt a little uneasy. She couldn't guess what he was planning.

He told her over and over again that she had to leave first in this sort of emergency situation. Was he planning for her to leave this place first?

The two of them were on a mission together. How could she abandon him for her own safety?

However, there was no time for her to think about it. They had already arrived at Sheldon's office.

It was not only Sheldon waiting in the office. Edward, Ben, and Mark were there waiting too. As soon as Monique and Levi opened the door and entered the office, the four pairs of eyes in the study shifted to look at them. Their gazes were obviously full of hostility, but they still put up an amiable front.

Sheldon asked, beaming, "Young Master Brown, did you rest well last night? Did my tactless subordinates disturb your resting time?"

Levi answered with a smile, "We had a good rest. Just one thing, the bed was a little hard, so it was pretty uncomfortable to sleep on, but it was still barely tolerable."

Sheldon went on to ask, "Then, did you enjoy your lunch just now, Young Master Brown?"

Levi commented again, "The food was pretty delicious but it had a little too much oil in it, so it was kind of greasy. Mr. Gilbert, would you please instruct the chefs to make a lighter meal for dinner tonight?" Sheldon replied with a smile, "Of course. You're our esteemed guest. If you need anything from us, we'll do as you request as long as it's within our capabilities."

"Very well. Thank you then, Mr. Gilbert," Levi replied with a nod.

After the courteous small talk, it was time to get to the point. After staring at them for a while, Sheldon coughed softly and asked, "Young Master Brown, about what we discussed about last night, what's your stance?"

Levi answered, "I definitely will fulfill what I've promised you, Mr. Gilbert. But, I have a question for you too. What's your decision on my condition?"

When Levi proposed that condition the previous night, Sheldon had already made the decision to not let anyone leave ahead of Levi. However, the way he said it left room for negotiation.

However, after the long span of time between the previous night and the current moment, Sheldon had already thought of an excuse. He said, "Young Master Brown, you and your lady friend are so close that I really can't bear to see you two separate. Why don't you two live here for two more days? When we get what we want, I will arrange a private plane to send you two back."

"You're right, Mr. Gilbert. I won't feel well either if I'm separated from my little beauty. Please give me your phone, I'll call Neil now," Levi said. His purpose was not actually to get them to send Monique away. At present, she had to be in sight for him to rest assured.

Sheldon waved his hand; a mobile phone was handed over in an instant.

Levi picked up the phone and dialed a series of numbers adeptly. Soon, the phone line was connected. Neil's voice came from the speaker, asking, "Brat, why are you calling at this hour?"

"Neil, Mr. Gilbert has invited me to his house as a guest, and he took quite good care of me. Can you do him a favor?" Levi asked in a casual manner. He did not sound like a hostage who had his personal freedom restricted at all.

Neil retorted, "Brat, your superiors have assigned important tasks to you. Why are you not working hard, instead you're going around making friends?"

Levi replied, "Neil, don't act silly. I'll tell you directly now. Mr. Gilbert wants some weapons. Find a way to get them here."

Neil was enraged. "Brat, do you know what you're saying?"

"Neil, has age taken a toll on your ability to think?" Levi's voice increased in volume. It appeared like he was going to quarrel with Neil. "Didn't I say it clearly enough? I'm at Mr. Gilbert's place now. As for when can return to Chatterton Town, it depends on your actions."

Neil asked again, "What exactly are you trying to do, brat? Are you trying to bluff me?"

Levi angled his head to look at Sheldon and asked, "Mr. Gilbert, he doesn't believe me even after I've said so much to him. Why don't you talk to him personally?"

Sheldon was listening at Levi's side. He had been wanting to speak for a long time, but due to Neil's identity, he still had some reservations about butting in. Now that he was given the chance, he couldn't ask for anything more. "I'll talk to Colonel Brown then," Sheldon agreed.

"Here." Levi handed the phone to Sheldon. Taking the phone, Sheldon was cautious as if he was holding a fragile treasure. "Colonel Brown, nice to meet you. I'm Sheldon Gilbert," he greeted and introduced himself.

It was not because Sheldon was afraid of Neil, but because only Neil could give him what he wanted at present. Therefore, it would help if they showed a little respect to Neil.

Neil responded, "Oh, it's Mr. Gilbert. I've heard a lot about you."

Sheldon grinned and said, "Colonel Brown, you flatter me!"

Neil replied, "Everyone knows what you've done, Mr. Gilbert. Now, you've invited my son to your place as a 'guest'. Do you think you can threaten me by that?"

Sheldon answered calmly, "Colonel Brown, you don't have to be so touchy. It just happened that Young Master Brown came to Xanduvia City to have fun and this place is under my charge. I didn't invite him over as a threat."
