When Minerva reached hsafely, she hugged Vera and said, "Alright, I know that you've been working hard, but just this time. Also... I've already let you kiss my brother so just takeas your future sister-in-law and take care of me." Vera was originally furious but when she heard Minerva mention Quill, her face turned red from embarrassment.
"What are you talking about? What sister-in-law?" "What's wrong?" Minerva grabbed hold of her arm and the two of them walked towards the district together. "You don't want to be my sister-in-law?" "Of course I do but..." "Then that's good enough." "Don't just talk about me. What's wrong with you? You went to the hospital in the middle of the night and cback? Did Maddox ask you to do something for him again?" Minerva shook her head and said with a smile, "It's nothing. It's all over now." However, Vera stared at her and said, "No, you are lying to me." Minerva paused. "Vera?" "You're deliberately joking with me, but Minerva, you and I have known each other for so many years. How can I know if you're really happy or not? Your smile doesn't reach your eyes, yet you're still teasing me? Don't do this next time. We're good friends, so you don't have to pretend to be strong in front of me." Minerva didn't know how to answer.
"Tell me, what on earth happened?" Since she had already said so, Minerva could no longer maintain the smile on her face. "It's not a big deal. It's just that I haven't thought it through in my heart yet, so I don't really want to say it." "Forget it, I won't force you if you don't want to say it. Think about it carefully." "Okay." The two of them returned to their rooms. Minerva took off her jacket and then went upstairs. Since Beanie had already fallen asleep, she had to go to the guest room next door. She laid down in the darkness after turning off the lights.
She should already be drifting off to sleep at this time.
However, her mind was still very clear, and in a mess.
Minerva closed her eyes. Her mind was filled with the questions that Maddox had asked her in the hospital.
He already knew the existence of the child. As long as he investigated a little more, he might soon know who Beanie looked like.
Although Minerva had hidden Beanie very well so that his appearance would not be exposed to the public, it was inevitable that she would make smistakes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe did not have to care about it when she was abroad, but now that she'd returned? What would happen after Maddox found out? At that moment, Minerva even felt that it was a mistake for her to return home.
What should she do next? Although she had already felt that she was trying very hard to becstronger, but... Was she still helpless in front of so many problems? Night passed and day came.
Vera rubbed her messy hair and pulled on her pajamas to go to the kitchen. She suddenly saw a tall figure sitting in the living room.
As soon as she saw what was in front of her eyes, Vera got such a shock she almost rolled down the stairs. Who else could it be other than Quill sitting on the couch in the living room? But it was still early in the morning. How did he end up here? When Vera held the stairs railing, Quill just happened to look over.
Their eyes met in the air, and the atmosphere seemed to be stagnant for a few seconds.
Upon seeing her expression, Quill's thick eyebrows lifted slightly.
Vera followed his line of sight and looked down at herself blankly.
She didn't sleep well, so her collar fell on one side, revealing her fair shoulders. One side of her trousers was hiked up while the other was down, and her hair was tousled like a bird's nest atop her head. Three seconds later, Vera closed her eyes and meditated. "This is false. It's a dream, a dream!" She must be dreaming.
Otherwise, why would Quill cat this time? He didn't have the keys to the house! When Vera opened her eyes again, she still saw Quill sitting there. After a few seconds, she turned around and ran upstairs. Her petite figure suddenly disappeared from Quill's sight. Quill frowned as he watched the petite figure disappear.
The frown on his face deepened.
This woman...
After rushing back to her room, Vera rushed into the bathroom. When she saw herself in the mirror, she cried out in regret.
"Why am I such a mess? Last tI was asleep and made a fool of myself, but this tI made a fool of myself again? Ah, Vera, you must be the reincarnation of a fool!" Vera rubbed her hair hard and was about to go crazy.
But on second thought, she couldn't be so depraved.
She was going to pursue her Prince Charming. She had already kissed him. What else could she be afraid of? She had to go forward bravely! After Vera cheered herself up, she quickly tied up her hair, and then brushed her teeth and washed her face. Because makeup would be too obvious, Vera drew subtle eyeliner that was as thin as silk thread and then smeared her lips with her daily lipstick. Then, she straightened her hair and changed her clothes.
Looking at her brand-new self in the mirror, Vera was so nervous that her heart almost jumped out of her throat. It shouldn't be a problem for her to meet Quill in this way, right? Before leaving, Vera seemed to think of something and quickly rushed back. She took the small bottle of breath freshener and sprayed it hard into her mouth. After confirming that her breath was fresh, she finally felt relieved to go out of the room and go downstairs.
Minerva probably cback late last night, so she didn't get up at this time.
In fact, Vera had always been the earliest among the three.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter all, she was the cook. She wanted to get up and make breakfast.
Vera went down on small steps and willy Afteram slowly approached Quill while, he had taken out his laptop, as if he was dealing with something. Quill raised his head as soon as he heard footsteps approaching. He took a glance at Vera, who had already changed into a new outfit.
Thinking of her disheveled look earlier and looking at her at that moment, there was clearly a sharp contrast between them.
"Mr. Hanover," Vera greeted him with her signature smile. "Why did you... cso early?" Quill heard her words and his expression was indifferent as he withdrew his gaze. "I woke up very early, so I came." Vera thought for a moment, bit her lower lip and asked, "But how did you... get in?" "Open the door." Vera was confused.
Of course, she knew that he had opened the door and cin, but... She recalled that she and Minerva were the only ones who had the keys Were'ti to the house. In the past two days, Minerva often went to the hospital and she did not bring any keys. She had used her fingerprints to unlock the door.
Vera was embarrassed to ask him, but at the stime, she was very curious about it.
In the end, she could not help but ask, "About that... I remember the keys to this house..." "A password lock." Before she could finish her sentence, Quill resolved her doubts.
A password lock? Vera was even more confused. How did he know the password?
Quill seemed to have guessed what was going through her mind. He said in a low voice, "Didn't you enter the password when you cin yesterday?" Vera nodded. "Yes." Then, she suddenly cto her senses and asked, "Wait, you've memorized it just like that?" X
