Chapter 19
Chapter 019 Barret’s Possessiveness
Jenny spent the whole afternoon with Grandpa, drinking tea, chatting, watching TV, and telling stories.
She was like a people-pleaser around her grandpa, playful and smart, tender and lovely, full of infectious energy as if people
could be happy just by looking at her.
Barret looked at Jenny’s bright and beautiful smile and suddenly seemed to understand why grandpa must let him marry her in
the first place.
His personality was a bit cold and sometimes was even a bit withdrawn.
And Jenny’s brightness and cheerfulness just made up for his shortcomings. She was indeed very lively, like a
little red sun, always bringing people warmth and strength.
But who this little sun would be shining on in three days?
In the evening, Jenny did not return to her room until Grandpa was asleep.
Barret had already finished his bath and was lying on the bed reading a book. He was wearing a dark gray
bathrobe, which made him handsome, sexy, and charming.
That nearly took Jenny’s breath away and her heart missed a few beats.
This man had nothing to do with lying in bed after a shower to tempt her. Did he have no shame at all?
Jenny quickly turned around and opened the closet door to look for pajamas. Before her hand reached in,
Barret’s low voice came, “No need to look and I have gotten your pajamas for you.”
“Wh-what?”
Jenny looked at him and her small face flushed unconsciously.
Then Jenny thought that they were still a couple and her reaction was a bit too much. So, she immediately
calmed down and said, “Why did you take my pajamas? Did you accidentally take the wrong one?”
“No.”
“Then where are my pajamas?” Jenny looked around the bedroom and found nothing.
Barret looked into the bathroom, “I put it inside. As a treat to you for taking care of Grandpa all afternoon today
and this is what I can do for you within my power.”
Jenny, “...”
But she didn’t let him help her.
Jenny had several sets of pajamas at home. One was short lace pajamas which could reveal the entire back of
the butterfly bone when she put it on, very sexy. The others were all cotton pajamas with top and bottoms.
At this moment, Jenny was walking into the bathroom, praying that Barret didn’t take the lace one.
However, what she was afraid of came.
As soon as she walked into the bathroom, Jenny saw the lace backless pajama at a glance.
What’s worse, Barret didn’t just put it down and he hung it up like a suit.
When she saw the holes in her lace pajamas, Jenny felt so ashamed, “Should I go change the pajama?”
Jenny hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to change one.
Seeing Jenny going back to the bedroom without showering, Barret thought something had happened and

immediately looked up, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, it’s just that L... Jenny stammered, “I have a cold and I want to wear a longer pajama.” TII have someone go get them
for you tomorrow,” Barret said.
Jenny was very confused, “I can just find another set of pajamas. Why do I have to wait until tomorrow?” However, after looking
around, Jenny looked at Barret in frustration, “Where are my pajamas?” “Thrown away”
“What?”
Jenny almost thought she had heard wrong. Why did he throw her pajamas?
“Is it you?” Jenny told herself not to get angry, so she tried to suppress her anger and asked patiently. “Yes,”
Barret replied indifferently.
“Barret...” Now Jenny finally went angry with her hands on her hip, like a frantic kitten, and stared at Barret, “You have to explain
to me clearly. Why did you throw my pajamas?”
Those are outdated and childish.”
“Are you kidding me?”
Jenny was very angry. Her pajamas are very cute. How could he say them childish?
“One is with Doraemon, one is with Pikachu, and one is with a little bunny. Jenny, don’t forget, you bought these
pajamas when you were a girl, but now...
“Now what?”
“Now you’re married and a young woman.”
Ahem... After saying that, Barret deliberately coughed twice, and then again as if nothing had happened, he lowered his head
and continued to read the book.
But Jenny’s face was instantly flushed like a monkey’s butt, always feeling that the word “young woman” was ambiguous.
Jenny had no choice but to go back to the bathroom and took a shower.
Then Jenny wore that lace pajama quickly got into the quilt, and wrapped herself up.
Just relieved, suddenly, Barret put down the book and leaned over physically, “Don’t you think I can’t see if you run fast?”
Jenny, “...”
Jenny now seriously doubted that Barret did it on purpose. He knew she was shy and still teased her. Jenny’s face was already
red when she came out of the bathroom after taking a shower.
This time, her face became redder.
“You just know how to make fun of me.” Jenny pulled the quilt over her head and covered her whole head.
Barret reached out and pulled her out of the quilt. Jenny was panting because she had been under the quilt for
a while, and her face was more flushed.
“Why do you love to get under the quilt so much.”
“Is the smell there good?”
Jenny looked at him in exasperation. How could he think like that?
“It’s your fault for teasing me all the time.”
“I’m not teasing you.” Barret came closer, exhaling breath hitting Jenny’s face, warm and moist, “Jenny, don’t you.
forget that we’re not divorced yet.”
“Of course, I haven’t forgotten.”
“So, for now, we are still a couple. I have the right to make you fulfill your conjugal obligation.”
These words are ambiguous.
Jenny suddenly sat up and pushed him away, “You’re getting back at me, aren’t you? Because I interrupt your
kiss with Laura during the daytime, you’re teasing me on purpose to see me make a fool of myself.”
Barret gradually calmed down, then he reached out his hand and rubbed Jenny’s hair, his low voice sounding from her ear, “I
don’t mean that and I just want to tell you that you should learn to protect yourself in the future.
Especially, you should always keep a watchful eye on men.”
Jenny looked at Barret, “You are also a man, so should I also keep a watchful eye on you?”
“Yes.” Barret nodded seriously.
Only Barret himself knows how much he wanted Jenny the moment he saw her coming from the bathroom, and
how hard he tried to control himself.
After Jenny fell asleep, Barret lifted the quilt and went to the balcony.
The night was dark, and the stars were shining outside the window.
Barret lit a cigarette and smoked sullenly, frowning.
Two years were not long but were not short.
He couldn’t deceive himself that what he thought had indeed changed a lot.
When he first got married to Jenny, Barret was looking forward to the end of the three years and getting the
divorce certificate as soon as possible; however, since when did he feel a little reluctant.
Jenny was beautiful, highly educated, gentle and lovely, smart and clever. Many men like the type of her. If she
divorced him, many men would definitely pursue her.
As soon as he thought of the future Jenny was about to hold the hand of another man and sleep in the arms of
another man, Barret felt very unpleasant.
After a cigarette, all these emotions were classified by Barret as Men’s Possessiveness.
Just because she was still his wife and the granddaughter-in-law of the Smith family.
He certainly wouldn’t think so when they were completely divorced and done with the paperwork.
Barret told himself firmly that this must be the case.
But things were different today and he didn’t know what a wrong thing he had done.
