Minerva was speechless.
She could not help but lower her head to look at Beanie, her eyes filled with doubt.
Where did this little guy learn these things from? Why was he so fond of gossiping about adults at such a young age? Moreover, she had only suspected that Sam might like Vera since the previous night. Why did he seem to know it earlier than she did? Soon, under Minerva's gaze, he immediately revealed the matter.
"Daddy told me." Beanie had betrayed his daddy.
She asked, "Did your Daddy say that?" "Yes, Daddy told me, so... Mommy, is what Daddy said true?" He asked.
Minerva furrowed her beautiful brows. She didn't expect Maddox to gossip with her son. She didn't expect a man to gossip in such a way, even about these things...
"Don't listen to his nonsense. When the tcomes, I will scold him. Don't take his words seriously. Also, children better not ask too much about adults' matters. It's best if you don't talk about it in front of your uncle, Auntie Vera, and Sam, or they'll be embarrassed. Do you understand?" "Oh." Beanie nodded cleverly and said, "Got it, Mommy." He wouldn't be that obedient though.
For a moment, the mother and son went back to their rooms with different thoughts.
Vera's fever had already gone. Other than feeling a little dizzy, she did not feel that anything else was wrong. Moreover, she did not know anything about her fever. She only thought of it as a headache after she was drunk. Hence, she didn't think so much. She rolled up her sleeves and went into the kitchen to cook.
When Sam cin, she was washing sfruits with her hands.

When Sam saw this scene, he immediately frowned and walked in.
He asked, "You haven't fully recovered yet right? Why are you doing this?" When he cin, there was no sound. At this time, he suddenly spoke. She was still shocked and raised her head to look at him.
"Sam?" She felt a little strange. She didn't expect him to cover. Thinking about what he said earlier, she asked, "Why did you cin? And what did you say just now? What do you mean that I haven't fully recovered? When did I fall ill?" The more she said, the angrier she became. She said angrily, "You jinx, are you cursingfor being sick? Although you treatedto a meal yesterday, don't you think that you can talk nonsense like that." Sam was speechless.
When he saw Vera's reaction, he subconsciously felt that she might be confused by her fever, so he immediately walked towards her and put his hand on her fair forehead.
His movements were very fast.
Before she had tto react, she saw him lift his hand. At that moment, she thought that he wanted to hit her. She wondered how he had becso cranky that he would beat her after she said a few words. However, she didn't know what was going on. She becslow and just stood there in a daze.
She didn't even try to dodge.
Hence, when he put his cold hand on her forehead, she was shocked and then raised her head to ask him. "What are you doing?" Sam did not take his hand back. Instead, he felt her temperature.
He had just cback from outside, and because he got up early and didn't have breakfast, his hands were cold at this time. Vera felt a little cold, and she subconsciously stepped back two steps and said, "Do you want to warm your hands with my forehead? I said..." However, before she could finish her words, he seemed to be dissatisfied with her retreating action. He directly held her shoulders with his hands, leaned over, and stuck his forehead on hers.
Her eyes widened, and she was still holding the fruits. She was stunned on the spot.
She looked at Sam, who was close, in astonishment. Their breaths were very close, and she could even see the small hairs on his face clearly.
Although she had known Sam for a long time, she still mistakenly thought that he liked her.
However, after she said it, he had denied it, and it seemed that he really didn't like her. Vera's heart was not with him, so she didn't care whether he denied it.
But what was he trying to do? How could he behave so intimately all of a sudden? It was the first tthat a man had taken the initiative to pull her closer. She only felt shy and nervous. Her eyelashes and lips trembled with her movements, and she could not even speak fluently. "You, you, you... What are you doing?" He didn't want to do anything. He felt the temperature on her forehead carefully. He made sure that there was no big difference between the temperature on her forehead and himself, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
She should be fine. Just now, he thought that she still had a fever.
When Sam wanted to step back, he found that Vera had opened her eyes wide and was looking nervously at him. He was stupefied. He had just done this unconsciously because he was in a hurry.
It was only then that he realized how inappropriate his actions were.
When she asked him what he was trying to do, he felt a warm sensation in his ear and quickly retreated. "Sorry, I didn't mean to," he said.
She stared at him and asked, "What do you mean?" "You had a fever last night. I just wanted to check your temperature." Check the temperature? "Are you kidding me? You need to be so close to check the temperature? Do you want to take advantage of me?" After he retreated, her nervous mood beca little better. Just now, she was scared. She almost thought that he wanted to...
She didn't dare to think about it further, because it would be too shameful if she thought about it.

"No!" Sam denied on the spot with a red face. "I didn't want to take m advantage of you. AX first; I just reached out with my hand, but you... stepped back, so I..."
"Don't deny it. Even if I retreat, you can still use your hands. If you didn't could have asked want to do so, you vedirectly. You just want to take advantage of me." When he heard her words, his face and his ears turned red. Vera saw him like this. She was also very happy. She squinted her eyes and approached him.
"This is the first tI've seen a man who's so shy. Your face is so red, are you thinking of something bad?" Boom...
He did not expect that she would actually flirt with him, and his face turned even redder.
"I...
She said, "Okay, you don't have to say anymore. I understand!"
What did she understand? He anxiously wanted to explain. In fact, he was very worried that what he had just done would affect her, and he would leave an impression on her that he was too frivolous and casual.
However, she didn't seem to be able to listen to his explanation. After holding it in for a long time, he finally said one sentence.
"I'm not a casual person." X She shrugged indifferently. "Well, I know." He didn't know how to respond.
