Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Quill could feel Vera's intention to defend him.

He didn't think much of it back then, but now there was a strange feeling surging in his heart.

"Alright, I haven't said anything yet. You don't have to clarify so hurriedly. Did I say he's abusive?" Vera didn't know how to reply suddenly.

She was dumbstruck for a bit; she thought it was exactly what her mother thought. Was she wrong? Mabie then looked at Quill.

"Anyhow, thank you for helping Vera this time. If you hadn't helped in time, we might not have been able to deal with this matter in the end, so I should show you my appreciation." After saying that, Mabie stood up and bowed to Quill to thank him sincerely.

Seeing that, David also followed.

Probably because Quill had never faced such a situation before, it took him five whole seconds to react.

"Mr. and Mrs. Zais, you don't have to do this. Anyone else would have done the sthing." Mabie glanced at the tall and handsman in front of her, then at wimpy Vera. She thought for a while, and just as she was about to speak, Quill's phone rang.

"Sorry, I have to take this." He took out his phone and went to the balcony.

Mabie looked at her daughter while Quill was busy answering the phone.

Originally, she thought, after last night's incident, Vera would be in low spirits or even traumatized. But now? Vera didn't look depressed at all. Instead, her face was filled with happiness. When Quill went to answer the call, she even looked in his direction from the corner of her eyes.

Alas... It was indeed true that a grown girl wouldn't be kept at home, the truth to life.

Mabie felt both sad and gratified that the daughter she raised had finally found someone. She leaned closer to Vera and asked in a low voice.

"Tell me, what else happened last night?" Vera was shocked by that.

At the mention of last night, Vera reacted greatly. But she had learned her lesson that morning. So, she didn't jump up out of guilt; this tshe pretended to be calm and remained seated instead. "Nothing else happened." "Are you sure?" Mabie squinted at her.

Vera blinked nervously and nodded hard. "Really, nothing else." However, just as Mabie leaned in to take a good look at her, Vera lowered her head in guilt; she dared not look straight into Mabie's eyes.

How could Mabie not tell the guilty look on her face? She glanced at the person on the balcony and whispered again, "Is he the sperson you toldabout before?" Vera was baffled.

Why did her mother suddenly ask about this? Was she that good at understanding situations? Vera suddenly felt as if she had nowhere to hide.

Seeing Vera's awkward expression, Mabie instantly knew what the answer was.

Who would've thought the person Vera loved was actually Beanie's uncle.

At the thought of this, Mabie suddenly thought of something else. "Is the reason you are so nice to Beanie that you like his uncle?" "Mom! Don't spout nonsense. Although they are relatives, there isn't a direct relation to me." She was good friends with Minerva first, and she only liked Quill later. Even if she and Quill didn't date, she still wouldn't cut ties with Minerva, let alone be nice to Beanie just because she wanted to be with Quill.

She just happened to get along with Beanie, and the two of them were on the swavelength.

"Okay then. You don't seem to care about benefits anyway. Moreover, Beanie is such an innocent child, and he trusts you so much. He is definitely a good child." As they were talking, Quill cback after he ended the call. Vera stood up nervously and said, "Was it from your company? I'm all fine now Why don't you... head to the company first?" Looking at the way Vera was aciting, Mabie smiled and stood up as well.

"That's right, Mr. Hanover, thank you for your help. We would like you to join us for lunch, but it seems that you're quite busy with work. How about this? Mr. Hanover, David and I I would like to invite you over for a meal to express our gratitude when you have time." A meal? Quill glanced at Vera, who looked uneasy. If he really agreed to it, Vera would certainly feel more anxious. He smiled faintly and said in a gentle tone. "Thank you, Mrs. Zais. But I do have something urgent to deal with at the company. I'll treat you all to a meal another day." "How can it be your treat? I'll ask Vera's dad to pay. After all, it's to express our gratitude." After that, Quill didn't say anything else, and Mabie gave Vera a push.

"You should see Mr. Hanover off." "Oh, okay." Vera finally cback to her senses and led Quill out the door and downstairs.

The two of them walk down without saying a word. As Quill was about to leave, he saw through the corners of his eye that Vera remained silent.

Ever since he kissed her the night before, she had been acting like an ostrich. Had she becaddicted to being one? However, seeing that it wasn't a good tfor him to say anything else, Quill thought that it was better to let her rest first. Quill then spoke indifferently. "You should go in."

The cold male voice pulled Vera back to her senses, and she realized they Iff were already downstairs, she didn't expect it to be so quick, so she simply nodded. "Okay, then... have a safe journey." After saying that, Vera waved at him carefully. Seeing that Quill didn't have any expression, she put her hand down and turned around to head upstairs.

Vera suddenly felt someone grabbed onto her arm and stopped her in her tracks, unable to move forward. Quill was pulling on her.

Vera was astonished.

What was he trying to do? Vera's эц

heart beat wildly; she did not even dare to breathe as they tacitly didn't talk about the incident since last night. However, Juliette deliberately brought it up earlier, so Vera was distraught that he would talk about it No doubt, she was worried, but she looked forward to it too.

"You shouldn't go out alone for the tbeing. Callif you need anything."

To her surprise, Quill did not mention what happened the night before. Instead, he just reminded her. Was he concerned about her? Vera then the nodded. "Okay..." "You should go back in." As he said that, Quill reached out and stroked her head. He said in a gentler voice, "Don't overthink." "Huh?" Vera suddenly raised her head and looked into his eyes. Don't overthink? Don't overthink what? Was he referring to last night? Did he tell her not to overthink and not to flatter herself? Just when Vera was looking at him in confusion, Quill suddenly got closer to her; his breath brushed on her face.

"I just told you not to let your imaginations run wild. And yet, you're already doing it in front of me." Vera was rendered speechless.

Her face suddenly flushed red. How was he so capable; he could see through her with just one look. Was she an open book? Like RICH WOMEN? These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming these rich women will persue you.
