Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 183

Verian Mont’s tip of her fingers lightly touched his wound and she trembled slightly. “Does it hurt?”

“Yes, a little.”

As Verian Mont tears fell, she sniffed and stared at him. “Since you know that it hurts, why did you still want to hold the knife and stab your own chest?”

If he was not certain, perhaps she would leave the hospital and him after a few days?

Heaton Fudd held her dainty hand and placed it where his heart was.

Verian Mont could almost feel the strong heart beat through his chest.

“The wound is a little painful but it’s not as painful as this.”

Verian Mont’s eyes were red. “Sorry, I…”

“Your father’s death years ago was really related to the Fudd Group and I cannot be let off the hook. The person who should apologize is me.”

Verian Mont bit her lip, gathered her courage and asked, “Heaton Fudd, why didn’t you grace my father with a period of time, maybe…”

“Apart from your father, there were other enterprises. As the person in charge of the Fudd Group, I cannot condone the overdue of all the other companies.”

Verian Mont understood his meaning but the person who died was her father. She could not have had any estrangement with Heaton Fudd in her heart.

“You actually found out long ago that I was teaming up with Yanni Quain, right?”

“I don’t like it when you say that.”

Looking at his overly jealous look, Verian Mont’s face blushed. “… Then when did you discover it?”

“Previously I only suspected, but when you brought Sam Joyce’s bracelet back home and let me see it on purpose, I was sure of it.”

Verian Mont did not understand. “Why?”

“Yanni Quain will not just tell anyone about Sam Joyce’s matters. Even if Yanni Quain wanted to stir the pot, you could have asked me about the details instead of bringing the bracelet home so suddenly and let me see it. You just wanted to make me angry.”

When he mentioned Sam Joyce, Verian Mont was stunned. She remembered what Lain Heidy told her and she looked at Heaton Fudd in a daze.

Did Heaton Fudd really consider her as a replacement for Sam Joyce?

However, she did not dare ask the question out loud.

At the same time, not long after, she would be leaving North City. Let her have her thoughts and imagination that Heaton Fudd really loved her at that moment, and not because she looked like Sam Joyce.

“Why are you looking at me?”

Verian Mont took a deep breath and asked again, “Then… then the matter with Sunny Shea. What’s that about?”

“I only wanted to use Sunny Shea to test if you would really be jealous if I went to bed with another woman.”

Verian Mont was a little surprised, “You knew early on that Sunny Shea was arranged by me and Yanni Quain?”

“Riana, you can hate me, but please stop contacting this person, Yanni Quain, okay?”

Verian Mont nodded obediently. Her dainty hands hugged his neck and she leaned into his arms and mumbled, “Heaton, I have figured it out. If my father’s soul is still here, he wouldn’t want me to take revenge.”

Heaton Fudd’s chest area hurted furiously.

Between his thoughts, he wondered what caused her to venture to a foreign land and stay there for three years. “Riana, tell me about the things that happened during the period of time you studied overseas.”

“Actually, there’s nothing much to say. I initially went to Paris because I couldn’t continue staying in North City. Apart from that, I hadn’t completed my studies at that time, so I went to Paris to finish my studies. The expenditure in Paris was very expensive, especially the school fees for my arts course. The money my father left me before he passed away was finished within a year. After that, I worked all sorts of part time jobs. Once, when I was working in a pub, I was almost molested by a foreigner. Luckily, Bodd Yellen rescued me…”

When mentioning Bodd Yellen, Verian Mont carefully raised her eyes and looked at Heaton Fudd. What Heaton Fudd asked, however, was, “Why did you go work in a pub?”

Verian Mont pursed her dainty mouth and said honestly, “Because there were a lot of classes and I had little time. Working in a pub at night brought in fast money.”

Heaton Fudd lightly sighed, “Riana, I am so sorry that I brought you a lot of hardship.”

If Grayson Mont did not go bankrupt, then he would not have committed suicide. Her once warm family would not have become broken in a short time because of him.

Verian Mont was deeply moved. This man was such an extremely proud man but he was apologizing to her so seriously and sincerely.

“Then I’ll punish you to cherish me, love me and take care of me for the rest of your life.”

“Okay.”

Verian Mont slightly smiled, raised her delicate face and kissed Heaton Fudd’s thin lips. The moment she closed her eyes, cold tears from the corner of her eyes dripped down her sideburns.

‘Heaton, I’m sorry that I’m lying to you again.’

They were initially two straight lines. If three years ago, the Mont Group did not go bankrupt, she would not have been a surrogate, her father would not have committed suicide, and she would not have met Heaton Fudd. Three years later, she set out to avenge Heaton Fudd. She even thought about letting him die, but she really had no way to follow through with it.

However, she also had no other reasons to stay by his side.

She first came to his side because of the Mont Family Mansion, then it was to help avenge her father… However, now, she had no more reason to be with him.

If only they could just let everything go back to the way it was three years ago. The both of them would still be on two parallel lines that would never have crossed.

Let all of this return to three years ago, they were still two straight lines and had never met.

Heaton Fudd should be in his colorful circle, following his original life path and continuing living his life. In his circle, there was no Verian Mont.

Lain Heidy was not surprised to hear that question, and answered smoothly, "Have you forgotten? I am a doctor. I have a lot of friends in this hospital. They all know that Heaton is a good friend of mine, so it was mentioned during a chat."

Lain Heidy said it in a watertight way, and there was nothing to doubt.

"Then, thank you for visiting me."

"I am a good friend of Heaton, and you are now... pregnant with Heaton's child. I should come and see you, right?"

There was nothing wrong with what Lain Heidy said, but Verian Mont felt particularly uncomfortable when she heard it.

Lain Heidy looked at Madam Leah and Little Jelly Bean, and said with a smile, "Jelly Bean, you follow Madam Leah and go down to the hospital’s garden to play for a while, okay? I need to talk to your Monty."

Little Jelly Bean took Verian Mont's arm, flattened her mouth and said, "But daddy asked me to stay by Monty’s side and look after Monty!"

Lain Heidy's eyes were startled. Heaton… was so pampering toward Verian Mont? He was afraid that Verian Mont would run away?

"Jelly Bean, Auntie Heidy will not bully your Monty."

Verian Mont knew that what Lain Heidy was about to say was not suitable for Jelly Bean to hear, so she coaxed, "Jelly Bean, I'm a little hungry. Will you and Madam Leah help me buy something to eat?"

"Monty, what do you want to eat?"

"Anything would do. Anything that Jelly Bean buys, Monty will love it."

"Okay then. Monty, you have to wait for me to come back!"

After Madam Leah took Little Jelly Bean out of the ward, Verian Mont asked, "Miss Heidy, what do you want to tell me?"

"Sam Joyce... She is actually still alive."

Verian Mont's eyes trembled fiercely, and then she said in an amused way, "Miss Heidy, are you joking? Sam Joyce sank into the sea ten years ago and was swept away by the waves. How could she still be alive?"

Lain Heidy stared into her eyes and said word by word, "Yes, Sam Joyce was indeed washed out to sea by the wind and waves, but she was rescued by someone."

"What are you talking about? If she was not dead, why didn't she go and look for Heaton or Yanni Quain?"

Verian Mont’s hand that was grabbing the quilt gradually clenched tighter.

Lain Heidy saw her panic and said in a slow pace, "Sam Joyce survived a catastrophe, but because she hit her head on a reef in the sea, causing damage to the brain and hippocampus, she lost all her previous memories. Thus, she also forgot about Heaton and Yanni Quain. Ten years have passed and due to all the treatments, she finally recalled some memories recently."

Although Verian Mont could not believe it but what Lain Heidy said had a clear logic and was convincing.

"How did you know that Sam Joyce is still alive?"

"I said, I am a doctor, and I know many friends in the same occupation. It so happened that Sam Joyce was treated by a friend of mine and because I am a psychologist, my friend introduced Sam Joyce to me yesterday for treatment. It was how I discovered this matter, and I hadn’t had the time to tell Heaton yet."
