Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

When they heard the word prison, everyone was obviously stunned for a moment, and they could hardly react.

Wasn't it just a blind date? What they thought of were, at most, fighting over a girl out of jealousy and reconcile in the end. How did it end up... with Sheridan having to go to prison? Seeing the puzzled look on everyone's faces, Vera thought that since she had already said it, she might as well make it clear.

As she thought so, there was a faint smile on her face, but her voice was as cold as ice.

"To be honest, Sheridan had cheated people into marriage and cheated their money. He had several records already. It was only because speople cared about their reputation that they did not speak about it. However, sstill reported it to the police. So he went into prison because of that. He was just released not long ago last year. I'm sure you're aware of his past, don't you Madam Amelia? You said that you introduceda man for my own good? Is it really out of goodwill? Weren't you just trying to pushinto a fire pit?" "What? He went to prison before? How could anyone want such a man?" "That's right. How can Amelia do this? He even cheated others into marriage and cheated their money? It's probably because he saw that Vera's pasta restaurant was booming that he targeted her." "This is horrifying. I heard that the blind date Amelia introduced to another girl was abusive. Now, there's this man who cheats for marriage and money. What are Amelia's intentions?" "It turns out that she is just like that. No wonder that her children wouldn't want to cback to visit her. They're afraid that she will bring them trouble, don't they?" "You... you!" Amelia didn't expect Vera to say so much. In fact, she didn't know much about Sherdian's past. She only knew that he had committed crimes. But Amelia thought that most men weren't decent anyway, so what if he was a little lousy? Since nobody wanted Vera, she simply did her a favor by introducing them to each other. "As for whether what I said was true, you can verify it for yourself if you're interested." Everyone just wanted to watch a show; they couldn't care less about verifying the matter. Moreover, when they saw Vera talking so confidently, they were already convinced. They were only probably waiting for the tables to turn again.

"I have finished what I wanted to say. Madam Amelia, I hope that you will not say such things again to ruin my reputation in the future. Otherwise, even if we've been neighbors for many years, I will sue you for slander." Mabie, who was standing beside them, said along, "Well sue you!" She looked fierce and intimidating.

The crowd looked at this scene. Two women stood there with angry faces while two men stood behind them, looking extremely calm and steady.

Everyone thought the women from the Zais family were not someone to be trifled with.

The farce was then resolved on the spot, and the bad news wasn't spread around. Even if swanted to gossip, they would have to say this ending anyway. As long as everyone knew the conclusion.

Quill looked at Vera's back, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes. He thought that after what happened last night, she would be afraid; she might have even backed off.

He hadn't expected her to solve the problem without his help at all.

Just as he was thinking, Vera suddenly looked at him. Her aggressive look earlier had turned to one that was obedient and flustered now. It was as if she wanted him to praise her yet was afraid that he would scold her.

It was a seamless switch.

Mr. and Mrs. Zais invited Quill to their place to have stea after the matter was resolved.

Vera was seated aside. She initially wanted to cback to explain the whole matter to her parents. But now Quill was sitting right there, she was a little tongue-tied when she spoke, and she couldn't seem to form her sentences.

When Mabie saw that her daughter had becso useless in front of the man whom she has feelings for, she smacked her head hard.

"Speak properly. Why are you stuttering?" After being smacked, Vera was in so much pain that she almost burst into tears, but she held it back and looked at Mabie resentfully. "Seriously, you're a good-for-nothing." Quill felt his heart aching when she saw the pitiful look on Vera's face. However, it was inappropriate for him to do anything in front of her parents. He could only purse his lips as he proceeded to speak.

"Mr. and Mrs. Zais." "It's hard for a girl to talk about what happened last night, so it's normal for her to feel nervous and stammer. Please don't be angry, Mrs. Zais." Upon hearing this, Mabie raised her eyebrows and threw a glance at Quill.

Wow, he would defend Vera to such extent.

It was rare for men to know to defend their beloved, not to mention a handsand temperamental man like Quill. Even when Mabie was right in the middle of the argument, she was still secretly observing Quill.

This man was not bad; he looked reliable.

"So, allowto explain what happened last night." Quill began to narrate the situation. When it cto the part where Vera was humiliated, he paused for a moment and glanced at Vera before he continued, only glossing over with one sentence. Mabie was even more satisfied with Quill.

This man obviously knew to care about Vera's feelings. Smen tend to show off, so they would m describe how miserable and terrible the situation the girl was in at that time. But such words were equivalent to making Vera recall what had happened. Now that Quill had put it in such a way, Vera could barely remember the situation already.

When he was done explaining, Mabie had made her judgements on Quill.

He was attentive, observant, well-articulated, logical, and sensible as well. More importantly, he was able to keep calm.

Unlike Vera's father. After listening to Quill's words, he almost flipped the table. He was already gritting his teeth in anger while listening. that b*stard! Isn't it too kind to only beat him up till he had to go to the hospital? Where is that guy now? I'm going to cripple him." "Would you stop it? Judging from Amelia's exaggeration, I'm sure he's been hurt badly." And all of this was probably Quill's doing.

Mabie glanced at him and suddenly frowned. This man looked reliable now, but she didn't expect he would beat a person till he was half-dead.

She wished that it was because of her daughter, not because he was used to using violence.

At that moment, Vera seemed to

know what Mabie was thinking. She then said directly, "Mom, he's usually not like that, it's just because what happened was too awful. If Dad was there, he would definitely beat Sheridan up badly as well." Mabie didn't know what to say at once.

Vera was already defending him before they confirmed their relationship? And she even used her own father as a comparison. What sort of lousy comparison is that? X
