She was first her mother.
Only then she was a supporter in her relationship.
If Quill liked Vera, it didn't matter if they didn't care about their differences, as long as they could live happily ever after.
But from when Mabie knew about this, Mabie had watched as Vera was hurt and shed tears many times. But now...
"Mom, don't ask about it for the tbeing. I will let you know when there's a conclusion." Vera also felt the change in Quill's attitude toward her, but she still wasn't sure deep down. He didn't make it clear to her after all, and she dared not ask.
In the past few days, he would text regularly to ask about her wellbeing as if he was a boyfriend caring about his girlfriend.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was probably a coward. Even up till now, she didn't dare to ask him about the kiss.
She felt extremely annoyed; the more she thought about it, the more annoyed she got. So she decided to go out for sfresh air and take the opportunity to visit Minerva. She had already told Beanie she was coming, and just so happened that Maddox wasn't around that day; she could keep Minerva company.
"Okay then, you have your own thoughts and opinions; as long as you're happy. Your dad and I are not unreasonable people. What's more, after your father got into that car accident, all he wants for you is to be happy. Even if you walk into a mud pit happily, he won't stop you." Vera didn't know what to say.
"Go ahead. Go and find him. Do take care of yourself." "I'm not..." Forget it; she didn't want to explain anymore since Mabie wouldn't listen anyway.
Vera got dressed and went out.
It wasn't that they hadn't seen each other for a long time, Minerva did go to the grand opening of her restaurant, but her belly had gotten much bigger and it was inconvenient for her to go there. Minerva couldn't hold back her complaints when she saw Vera.
"Back when we were abroad, he wasn't there to accompany me, but my pregnancy back then wasn't as difficult as this. I don't know what's going on with me. I feel that I have bectoo fragile. Vera, could it be because I am pregnant with a girl, that's why I'm feeling like this? Vera knew that Minerva was pregnant with a daughter. Everyone was happy knowing the news. After all, they had Beanie already. If they had a daughter, they would then have a boy and a girl.
Minerva was also elated, knowing that they were expecting a daughter. She had even thought of her daughter's nickname.
"Maybe because girls are really more delicate? Don't worry about it; you're giving birth soon. How nice it will be when you have two children later..." Minerva was initially feeling annoyed. Hearing Vera's envious tone, she couldn't help but peep at her. Beanie was her child, so how could he not tell her about Vera's matters? She had heard from Beanie about what happened between Quill and Vera.
Looking at how Vera looked currently, Minerva's lips curved into a smile. Fate sure was intriguing, wasn't it? Just when you thought it was gone, in reality, it was being put together again.
That was the case for Vera and Quill.
"What about you? I have a pair of children already; you should do your best too. I hope to hear sgood news from you by the day I deliver the baby." Vera's face turned red instantly when she heard Minerva's words and she confessed without duress in front of Minerva.
"I... There's nothing between your brother and me. Don't simply say anything." Minerva laughed out loud. "I didn't even say who it was. Why are you shooting yourself in the foot?" Vera realized what she had done. "Minerva!!" She stomped her feet out of embarrassment, and her face and ears were all red. "Did Beanie tell you that? He was talking nonsense. What happened earlier..." "Was it really nonsense? You don't want to give it another shot?" "I..." Vera hesitated for a moment. "I do." "Then do it. I think my brother... has fallen for you." Hearing Minerva's words, Vera's heart suddenly pounded wildly. Had he really fallen in love with her? Was it really not just her wishful thinking? Minerva suddenly leaned over and blinked her eyes. "Has he taken the initiative to kiss you yet?" Vera was totally dumbstruck.
Her face turned red, and Vera couldn't utter a word for a moment.

"Okay, he did, but it doesn't mean that he likes me. Perhaps... he just wanted to comfort me?" Minerva didn't understand and asked her, "Comfort you?" Hence, Vera told Minerva what happened that night. Minerva wanted to roll her eyes after hearing the story. "Honestly, how much more obtuse can you get? Do you think someone like my brother would do such a thing to comfort you? Think about t carefully. If it were you, would yo kiss a random person just to ven comfort him? Love is not something you give away like charity. I know the two of you too well. If you are unsure, you can try and test him." "Or, force him to admit." Force him? Force Quill to admit he liked her? How was she supposed to do that? Minerva smiled and said, "It's very simple. When he comes to find you, treat him coldly deliberately and see how he would react. Or, you could hint at him that you're tired and you don't want to be the one taking the initiative anymore." Vera was speechless. What kind of idea was that? She had to pretend to treat him coldly, facing Quill's icy cold attitude? However, it seemed like a workable idea after she gave it a second thought. Back when she was indifferent toward him, he waited in front of her restaurant the entire day. Maybe he liked to be 'abused like that? UMS As she was thinking about it, someone knocked on the door.
"Auntie Vera..." When Beanie saw Vera, he ran over to hug her and said, "I called my uncle to cover for you." What??? Quill was coming over? Vera stuttered. "Did... Did you call him over under my name?" Beanie shook his head. "I used Mommy's name. Auntie Vera, join us for lunch."
Minerva and Beanie were on the spage when it cto dealing with Quill and Wera. They spared no effort in trying to bring them together.
Quill went during lunch hours as he was busy with work. He entered the door just as the food was served.
As soon as he entered, he saw a familiar figure sitting there uneasily. He froze in his tracks for a moment, then returned to normal. "Uncle, you're here."
Quill carried Beanie with ease when Beanie ran toward him, asking for a hug. Quill Quill walked to the table and stated in a cold voice, "I cas soon as I was done with work. How long have you all been waiting? X Minerva sat there with her big belly. Upon hearing that, she answered, "We just sat down; we didn't wait for long." Next to her, Vera had her head down, pretending like she wasn't there and she didn't hear any sounds.
Minerva looked at Vera exasperatingly.
How could she expect Vera to test Quill's feelings for her?
