Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 284

The heavy snowfall lasted for a few days in North City.

The snow finally stopped that morning. The sunlight shone gently through the cold snow.

Verian stared at Heaton who was still asleep for a very long time.

He was in quite a deep sleep from last night.

Zion had left so would it be Heaton or Xavier to wake up soon?

Verian stared at him with a worried look for half an hour.

Heaton slowly opened his heavy eyelids. His eyes stung when the sunlight shone right into his eyes. He noticed Verian who was sitting opposite the sunlight.

“Riana?”

“Heaton, you’re finally awake!”

Verian lunged at him and immediately hugged his neck.

Heaton sat up, reached out and hugged her back.

“The other personalities appeared?”

Verian spoke in a slightly depressed tone, “It was Zion. Heaton, did you know that Zion who saved me back then was actually you?”

Heaton was slightly stunned. He never once thought that the person who saved her ten years ago was actually his other personality.

Zion Fudd… was actually him.

Verian’s tears fell and said, “He left last night.”

Heaton reached out and gently wiped away her tears with his fingertips. He said, “I felt it.”

Verian buried herself in his chest, closed her eyes and sobbed. She said, “Heaton, I’m a little sad.”

Heaton kissed her temple and spoke in a soft tone, “Good girl.”

Verian’s phone chimed and she suddenly recalled something. “Oh, that’s right, the morning news said that Queena was arrested. It’s related to the arson, ten years ago.”

Heaton’s gaze dimmed and said, “This might be related to Zion.”

“Zion?”

“Yeah, he rushed in to save you back then so, he might have seen the culprit.”

Verian felt complicated emotions in her heart. She was touched, sad and her heart ached… plenty of emotions were mixed together in her chest.

…

Verian gave Wilson a call before Heaton woke up.

Not long after, Wilson arrived at the Shallow Bay Villa.

“How do you feel, Heaton?”

Heaton nodded and said, “I feel fine, just a little tired.”

“It’s normal for the body to feel tired when a switch in personality happens.”

Verian asked, “Dr. Jarret, Zion told me that he only appears whenever Heaton’s sad. Whenever Heaton’s infuriated though, well, Xavier will appear. What does that mean?”

Wilson explained, “In medicine, sadness and anger are two extreme emotions. One is caused by a constant depression, a blue emotion per say. The other one is a red emotion that is explosive and is desperately wanting to be released. To patients with schizophrenia however, whenever they are faced with extreme depression, their brains will create a new identity to replace them in order to help them cope. They themselves will be unaware or desensitized to the sadness. Zion existed through this way. In a deeper meaning, Zion happens to be the twenty-two year old Heaton.”

Verian asked in a puzzled tone, “But when Zion said farewell to me last night, he seemed to have actually left. Dr. Jarret, can a personality leave too?”

“In a more accurate sense, Zion didn’t leave but he has recovered thanks to you. He has merged with the main personality.”

After Wilson left, Verian asked while staring at Heaton, “Zion only appeared because you’re sad… but, Heaton, why were you suddenly so sad? What exactly happened?”

She was actually completely oblivious to everything.

James sighed and said, “I’m sorry, Verian, Jane didn’t know better so it caused you to…”

Jane knelt on the ground and said while sobbing, “I’m so sorry, cousin-in-law, I was horrible and rashful…”

Verian was even more puzzled as she said, “Uncle, Jane, what are you guys doing?”

When Jane pushed her back then, did the doctor not say that she was fine?

Jane grabbed onto Verian’s leg and pleaded, “Verian, don’t let my cousin hate me, okay? I truly didn’t mean it. I accidentally pushed you back but I didn’t expect… it’ll cause you to be unable to keep your child…”

Verian was stunned. Her face instantly turned pale.

“You... what did you say?”

She stared at the pleading Jane with a shocked look.

“Cousin-in-law… you... don’t you know? Cousin... cousin he said you suffered because you wanted to keep this child. It’s my fault and if I didn’t push you... you would’ve kept this child… I’m sorry... Cousin-in-law, please forgive me, okay…”

Verian took a step back.

“You... what are you joking about?”

Jane lowered his gaze. She had a sinister grin. When she looked up again, she pleaded pitifully and said, “Cousin-in-law… it turns out… you didn’t know after all? I’m sorry… I really didn’t know…”

Verian cracked a smile and said, “Heat… Heaton said that the doctor told him the child… the child is fine.”

She instinctively touched her belly and stared at Jane in disbelief.

Jane said while biting her lips, “Could you have not known about it, cousin-in-law? Cousin booked an appointment with the doctor for your surgery already…”

Verian stumbled onto the couch.

No… Impossible.

Heaton actually said that their child was fine and there was nothing to worry about...
