Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Seeing that Minerva was about to leave, Vera suddenly panicked and subconsciously went forward to grab her. "Don't leave!" "What's wrong?" Minerva looked at her in amusement. "Didn't you say that you're still afraid of him? I was just thinking of finding my friend to accompany Quill if you don't want to go. That friend of mine happens to be a girl. Who knows if she'll fall in love with him at first sight?" She continued saying.

Upon hearing that, Vera replied while showing an upset look, "Bad Minerva, you know that my chance is already slim. I will have no hope if there is a new love rival!" "So, are you going or not?" Minerva asked.

"Yes!" Vera nodded heavily and gritted her teeth hard. "Of course I'll go!" She had to go, even if she was afraid of him. Minerva was right. This was a once-in-a-lifetopportunity for her. There will be only the two of them! Vera was excited thinking about that. There must be something wrong with her brain at the last moment and that was why she didn't dare to go. When she thought about it at that moment, she felt like she would never regret it, even if Quill would blher later.

"But you have to wait for me. I can't go now. I have to put on makeup and change my clothes," she said. She was very casual at that tas her Prince Charming was initially not there. However, it was only then that she realized that she was just wearing ordinary clothes at that moment. Besides, they were randomly matched. After taking a glimpse of Vera, Minerva replied, "Okay, then hurry up. If you keep Quill waiting and he insists on going out on his own later, I can't do anything." "Sure!" Vera quickly opened her suitcase and changed her clothes.

Minerva was waiting for her outside. Vera cout of the room about ten minutes later. Minerva's eyes widened when she saw her.

"Are you kidding me?" She asked.

Vera pursed her lips and said, "I don't have goodlooking clothes, so..." Minerva was speechless listening to her. She then asked, "Do you know how cold it is here? Do you want to freeze to death wearing this?" She couldn't help criticizing her. Vera then argued for herself, "Of course I know it will be cold, but you should know that staying alone with Quill is definitely a rare chance. I have to show your brother my attractiveness now. If I dress like a snowball, Quill will be even less interested in me." Minerva then asked, "Have you really made up your mind? You might catch a cold, or even have a fever." Speaking of that, she frowned and said, "No, I can't let you go out wearing so little. Wait here for me, I'll get you a coat." "No!" Vera stopped her. "Please, Minerva, letgo out wearing this. I'm with my warmer pad now and I won't feel cold," she said.

Minerva remained silent at that moment.

In the end, she did not stop her from wearing what she wanted.

However, after Vera left, she walked into the room. She looked at her messy luggage in a daze.

"That's how it feels to have a crush on someone... huh?" Minerva pondered on that.

Seeing Vera almost lose herself because of a man, Minerva could not help nursing a grievance for her.

After that, she let out a heavy sigh.

If possible, she really hoped that Vera did not fall in love with Quill.

Vera could fall in love with anyone, but why did she have to have a crush on him? Previously, Secretary Sharhad liked Quill for such a long time. She hoped that he would fall in love with her one day as tpassed. That was why she had been always staying by his side. However, in the end, she could not endure anymore as her family kept urging her.

However, it was Vera's turn at that moment.

How long would she have to endure? She couldn't possibly be like Juliette until she couldn't endure it anymore, could she? Quill...

Why did he seem to be such a ruthless and heartless man? It was really a headache.

However, he treated Minerva very well; it was so hard to understand him.

On the other side.

Vera went out with Quill. After closing the door and entering the elevator, he did not even look at her as they went out of the elevator.

She couldn't help feeling disappointed. She dressed in such a revealing manner purposely for him. However, he didn't even glance at her. She felt upset at the thought of this, but soon, the sorrow in her heart disappeared.

It was because there was still a long tfor them to stay together. If he didn't take a look at her then, he would see her sooner or later.

Thinking about it, her mood immediately turned better.

She pulled her collar and thought to herself, "Minerva said that it's very cold here. Why don't I feel cold? It seems like I don't have to suffer because of the cold weather all the way." As soon as she cout of the neighbourhood building, she had to eat her words.

Previously, they cout of the elevator, so there were walls blocking them. However, as soon as they got out of the building at that moment, the biting cold wind blew from all directions, passing through the defensive layer of their clothes, and reaching their skin.

"Gosh!" Those were the only word left in her mind at that moment! "It's so cold!!!" She thought to herself.

She felt alright when she was in the corridor earlier. Why did she beclike that when she walked out of the gate of the neighborhood? For a moment, she was so cold that her teeth were chattering. She was feeling so cold that she was not able to walk.

However, Quill, who was walking in front of her, didn't wait for her at all. Looking at his back, Vera wanted to tell him that she wanted to go back and get a coat. However, she couldn't say a word at all.

If she really told him that, he would definitely think that she was troublesand ask her to go back directly.

She had to endure it. After all, it would not take them a long tto buy clothes, and it wa was impossible for her to be frozen. At most, she Ne would catch a cold and have a fever. She would be fine after she cback and took a hot bath. Thinking of that, she gritted her teeth and walked forward, following Quill's footsteps.

After walking for quite a while, he realized that the footsteps beside him had disappeared. When he was about to stop and check, he heard footsteps following him again.

He didn't stop walking. Instead, he continued to take steady steps forward.

Vera followed a few steps behind him. However, she didn't move to his side because she couldn't keep up couldn't with him at all. His steps were too huge and he could walk really fast. She was barely able to keep up with this distance because she trotted a few steps. It was freezing.

Why didn't Quill turn to look at her? "One glance will do!" Vera pondered to herself.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of her efforts to dress up? "Do you know why I asked you to cout?" Suddenly, Quill's cold voice cfrom the front, followed by the breeze.

Vera was stunned for a moment, then quickly ran behind him and asked dazedly, "Why? Do you want to reprimand me?" Quill paused for a while but did not stop walking. He caught a glimpse of her from the corner of his eyes. He then saw the petite figure behind him was running while following behind him. A dark glint flashed across his eyes.

After asking that question, she did not get any answers from him. She was a little anxious as she asked, "Am right? You really want to reprimand me, don't you? But... It's truly my fault and I have done it. Can you reprimandlightly?" As Vera ran, she could feel that he was slowing down his footsteps. Was it her illusion? Why did she feel that he seemed to be slowing down on purpose to wait for her? Soon, Vera realized that she was going to cross Quill if she kept speeding up. Hence, she quickly slowed down her footsteps and followed him with normal steps.
