Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 256

Verian had not seen Little Jelly Bean for a few days now, so she decided to pick her up from the kindergarten.

When the little rascal noticed Verian after her school session, she rushed out the door with her bag and immediately hugged Verian’s waist.

“Monty!”

Verian squatted down and carressed her tiny face while saying, “Do you miss mommy?”

“I do!”

The little rascal hugged Verian’s neck tightly with her tiny hands. Verian used a little bit more strength to pick her up and said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you to KFC!”

“Yay! I can eat KFC again!”

A black Bentley was parked nearby and Yuna who was wearing shades was sitting in the driver’s seat. She glared at Xavier, scoffed arrogantly and said, “I didn’t expect that you would have such an adorable daughter with that woman!”

Xavier replied, “This child belongs to Heaton and her, not me.”

Yuna exclaimed, “Is there a difference? You’re still in the same body you were with Verian anyway? Oh right, you wouldn’t suddenly transform back to Heaton someday soon, right? I’m not willing to be your plaything!”

Xavier stared at the embracing mother and daughter duo. He spoke with a cold glare underneath his eyes, “I will never allow Heaton to reappear ever again.”

He never expected that he would be a mere shadow amongst Heaton’s fragmented personalities. However, now that Xavier appeared, he would not be willing to be a shadow that could disappear at any random moment.

He wanted complete control of this body and make Heaton completely disappear to absolutely take over this man.

“Follow them.”

Yuna followed Verian and Little Jelly Bean from behind in her Bentley until they arrived at a KFC. Yuna scoffed. “They’re actually here for KFC? How immature!”

As Xavier looked through a transparent window pane to watch the mother and daughter duo enjoy a meal, his heart had an unexplained violent throb.

He instinctively reached out to feel his chest while raising his brows.

This was not his emotions, but was Heaton’s.

Xavier scoffed, “Let’s go.”

“Are we not following them anymore?”

“We’re still unclear of the whole ordeal so it’s not necessary to follow them. I want to return to the Fudd family home. Don’t look for me for the time being.”

“Okay, but you have to remember to divorce Verian when the time comes.”

Xavier understood the current state of the Fudd Group. If he wanted the management to continue being under the Fudd family’s control, he would require the backing of someone with a powerful financial ability and influence as part of his alliance. Therefore, the Yames’ family would be the best choice.

…

Verian led Little Jelly Bean by holding her tiny hand happily back into the Fudd family home.

“Monty, I absolutely loved eating the mashed potatoes and egg tarts. When can we go back to KFC again?”

“If you love mashed potatoes and egg tarts, I can make some for you. Why don’t you come and stay with Monty this weekend?”

“Awesome! I want to sleep with Monty! Tell me a bedtime story! Later on I will let grandpa know that I’ll be going to Monty’s house this weekend!”

“Alright, let’s go in.”

When Monty entered the house with Little Jelly Bean, she noticed Xavier sitting in the living room having a ‘peaceful’ discussion with Nancy and John.

Fudd… Xavier Fudd… What was he doing here? What exactly did he want?

After Little Jelly Bean who was beside her noticed Xavier, she shot her eyes wide open and said, “Monty, daddy... wasn’t daddy in heaven? Is this daddy?”

Xavier got up and strode closer to Verian and Little Jelly Bean with his long legs.

Little Jelly Bean frowned and stared intently at the approaching Xavier with her huge eyes whilst tugging onto Verian’s clothes with her tiny hand. She said while pouting her lips in a puzzled tone, “Monty, he looks exactly like daddy!”

Xavier simply replied, “Alright, dad.”

Verian instinctively looked toward Xavier. She recalled Xavier disliking fish but now, he was actually picking a few pieces of fish with his chopsticks to eat.

What exactly did Xavier want for pretending to be Heaton and sneaking into the Fudd family home?

John then looked at both Verian and Little Jelly Bean, “Verian, Jelly Bean, why aren’t you both eating?”

Little Jelly Bean said whilst grabbing onto her glass of juice, “Grandpa, Monty brought me to KFC after school!”

The old man smiled compassionately and said, “Then you two should eat more vegetables.”

Little Jelly Bean grabbed her fruit juice and clinked it against Xavier’s glass whilst speaking in a child-like voice as she blinked, “Daddy, let’s drink.”

The old man laughed delightfully, raising his glass and said, “Come on everyone, let’s all toast to celebrate Heaton’s safe return!”

After everyone placed their glasses down, Xavier asked, “Dad, how’s Fudd Group doing recently?”

John’s smile dimmed when that was brought up. He said with a sigh, “Ever since your accident, Fudd Group’s stocks have been falling constantly. The executives and the board of directors were all quite unstable too. Fortunately, you’ve returned. I will announce your safe return first thing tomorrow morning. As long as you’re back, the stock market will stabilize. Anyway, let’s not talk business now. Let’s share a good meal together today, as a family. Let’s celebrate!”

Everyone was extremely happy during the meal. The only thing was that Verian was feeling quite jittery.

Both Little Jelly Bean and Zaynie went to watch some cartoons after the meal. Xavier most probably followed John into his study to discuss business.

After John got out of the study, he noticed Verian standing outside the door.

She was staring coldly at him. Then, she reached out to immediately pull his sleeves and into the bedroom.

Xavier sinisterly asked her upon entering the bedroom, “What’s the matter? Can’t wait to show me around you and Heaton’s room?”

“Xavier, what exactly do you want for sneaking into the Fudd family home?!”
