My Husband, Warm The Bed

The cold wind caressed Nordan's face, causing him to jolt. In that instant, something flashed across his mind and the previously confuddling matter instantly became clear to him. Jayden's words were not wrong at all. When two people were together, the most important thing was 'trust', the very thing that Nordan and Audrey lacked.

In the past, he and Audrey had been separated for a long time because they didn't trust each other. Every time he looked back on it, he would regret it.

At present, the two of them were together. Although Audrey had said that she'd be his only woman, he just could not believe her. He could not believe that she would stay by his side sincerely.

Was it that she wasn't sincere?

Or was it that he was too wary?

If he let down his guard, would he discover Audrey's sincerity towards him?

Nevertheless, he shouldn't let this situation continue. He didn't want to go through the pain and hurt of being separated from Audrey ever again.

Just as Nordan was not paying attention, he caught a familiar perfume scent. He looked back and saw Audrey standing behind him, sizing him up with those beautiful eyes of hers. He raised his eyebrows unhappily. "How long have you been standing there?"

"I've been standing here for more than ten minutes, but you didn't even notice me." Audrey took out a cigarette and lit it. She inhaled softly and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"I've told you so many times to not smoke but you're still here smoking in front of me." Nordan reached out to remove the cigarette from Audrey's hand, throwing it on the ground to put it out. "Audrey, if I see you smoking again, you'll get it from me."

"This will be the last time I smoke. After this time, I promise I'll never smoke again." Audrey lit another cigarette, took a puff, and gracefully exhaled a ring. Just as Nordan was about to take away her cigarette, she spoke first, "I've asked around. You can't smoke while preparing for pregnancy, nor during pregnancy. You can't smoke after bearing a child for the sake of the child's health. After smoking this cigarette today, I'm going to quit smoking for eternity, so let me enjoy this. Don't take away this cigarette."

"What did you just say?" Nordan stopped snatching the cigarette and asked Audrey with wide eyes. "Audrey, what do you mean by that? Please explain clearly to me."

"It's what it sounds like." Audrey took another drag on her cigarette and murmured slowly, "I still remember the first cigarette I had was the one I took from you. Do you remember?" Whatever she remembered, Nordon certainly did the same too, but he didn't want to bring it up.

Audrey continued, "Back then, you enjoyed smoking so much. Since you didn't quit, I joined you. We've been smoking for so many years, I never thought about quitting. Now that I have to quit, it seems quite hard and I'm not sure whether I'll succeed."

Nordan didn't care about the smoking, but instead wanted to understand the meaning behind Audrey's words, and whether he had interpreted it properly. "I'm asking what you meant just now. Stop blabbering about other things."

"Nordon!" Shouting his name, Audrey quickly finished her cigarette. After putting it out, she said, "Nordon Lawson, haven't you always wanted me to bear a child? I can promise you that now, but you have to follow one condition."

"Condition?" Nordan asked as he clenched his fists, not knowing if she was being sincere or if she had ulterior motives.

Audrey shrugged her shoulders and said languidly, "The condition is that we should quit smoking together. Once we quit, then we'll start preparing for pregnancy."

"It's a deal!" Just smoking, how hard could it be? However, why did Audrey suddenly make such a request? She used to be reluctant about having a child. He asked her, "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"Because I just saw Silvia's two cute little ones. They were so cute and I want to have such a cute child to play with me too." However, the reason that the two children's cuteness changed Audrey's mind was somewhat untrue. The real reason was that Audrey had overheard the conversation between Nordan and Jayden.

Audrey had never been able to figure out whether Nordan's feelings for her were love or just a man's natural possessiveness. However, when she saw that such a haughty man would take the initiative to ask Jayden, she understood the reason.

Other than his love for her, what other reasons would push Nordon to do so?

She should have known what he was thinking since a long time ago. All of this second-guessing was only taxing for both of them.

After this moment, she would never doubt Nordan's feelings for her ever again.

"Audrey, in your heart, am I not as good as those two little boys?" He had asked for a child from her many times but to no avail. This day, once she had met those two children, she agreed immediately. Why could those two children change her mind but he couldn't?

Nordan's face turned murderous.

"I'm asking you if you want to quit smoking with me." The more she understood him, the cheekier she got. "If you don't want to, then I won't force you. We can continue to smoke together. Maybe we'll still be healthy by the time we're eighty or ninety years old."

"Hand over the cigarettes in your pocket." Nordan forcefully took the cigarette from Audrey's purse and smashed them in three moves. "We'll stop smoking from today onwards. After three months, we'll start trying to get pregnant. That's the deal. Neither of us is allowed to back out." "Young Master Lawson has spoken. Even if I had the guts, I wouldn't dare go back on my word." Audrey uttered words of fear, but she wore a relaxed expression, not scared in the slightest.

Nordan said, "Good that you know."

She held Nordan's arm first. "If you wouldn't be able to quit smoking, what would you do?"

Nordan looked at her. "Is there anything that I want to do but can't?"

Audrey thought it over seriously. "I genuinely can't think of anything."

Nordan said, "We've met all of our friends. Let's go home together." Audrey replied, "But I still want to talk to Silvia."

"Aren't you afraid that Jayden won't let you into their house anymore?"

Aubrey reasoned, "With Silvia's help, would he still dare?"

Nordan smirked slyly. "What do you say?"

Seeing Nordan's smile, Audrey shivered. "Then, I'd rather go home with you. Once Silvia's baby is one month old, then I'll come to visit her and the baby."

Nordan took Audrey's hand and said, "Let's go."

On the way home, all that Audrey could think about was children. Thinking about how she and Nordan would have a cute children like Larry and Lawrie in the future, she could not help but look forward to it. In the past, she was afraid of bearing a child. However, when she thought of these matters at present, she did not seem to be as scared anymore.
