Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1031

David was also stunned. Had Vera just offered to wipe his face?

Vera was already making her way to the bathroom to get some water before he could refuse. After a while, she came out with half a basin of water in her hand along with a white towel.

She had brought all these with her from home. She had planned to use them when her father woke up.

Vera placed the basin on the bedside table. She then wrung the towel and bent down to wipe David's face.

It was probably because David and Vera had not been this close for a long time, so he felt a little uncomfortable when Vera came over to wipe his face.

As his uncomfortableness grew, he said, "Vivy, I'll do it myself."

After that, David reached for the towel.

However, as soon as he moved his hand, he felt a sharp pain shot through his entire body. He was in so much pain that he could barely endure it. He gritted his teeth. "Dad, are you okay?"

Vera suddenly became very worried and asked, "Does it hurt? Do you need me to get the doctor?"

David shook his head and said, "No, I'm fine. I might have accidentally pulled on my wound just now."

When Vera heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I've already said that I will wipe your face. Why do you still want to move around? Just lie down quietly. I am your daughter, not a stranger. Why do you have to refuse?"

Vera sounded a little strict when she said those words. She turned around to rinse the towel. Then, she bent down and continued to gently wipe her father's face. She said, "Are you afraid that I will not do a good job? You can rest assured that I will wipe your face clean and Mom will be satisfied."

David looked at his daughter in front of him.

Five years.

It had been five years since he last saw his daughter.

Now his daughter was by his side, wiping his face while talking to him in a strict tone. David had imagined countless times how their reunion would look like.

He thought that Vera would continue to be as wilful, and he would continue to be as stubborn.

However, he did not expect that the two of them could reconcile.

Thinking of this, a touch of gratification appeared on David's face. Then, he said, "My daughter has finally grown up. At least she knows how to take care of me now."

When Vera heard his words, she stopped what she was doing. When she saw the fatherly love in his eyes, she suddenly thought back to the reason they had fallen out, and her heart ached once more. She bit her lower lip. Her voice was choked with sobs.

"Dad, I'm sorry..."

David was also stunned.

"I shouldn't have been so unreasonable five years ago. It was my fault. Dad, can you forgive me? I promise to take care of you and Mom. I promise not to leave the two of you anymore." David did not expect her to become so considerate. Tears started to pool in his eyes.

"Vivy, I've never blamed you. Do not blame yourself."

"Really? But in the past five years..."

"Do you know what was going through my mind during the accident?" David looked at his daughter's face, then curled the corners of his mouth up slightly as he looked at the ceiling.

"When the accident happened, I was very regretful. I regretted... Why didn't I take the initiative to call you? If... I had done so, we probably would not have been separated for five years. Fortunately, God took pity on me, and I managed to pull through."

And now, he could still see his daughter.

Just when Vera had finally

composed herself, her father had

said such touching words and tears began to pool in her eyes again. She fought back her tears and said "Dad,

I

I know. That's exactly what I was thinking too. So in the future, let's

not quarrel any more, okay?"

David nodded with a smile.

"I will not be so wilful anymore, and I will not go abroad. From now on, I will stay and look after the both of you."

All of a sudden, David felt that Vera's temperament had completely changed.

To Vera, how could she not change?

She had been rejected by Quill, but before she could get over him, her father was involved in a car accident. It was a bolt from the blue.

At that moment, she suddenly felt that nothing was as important as her parents' lives.

Regardless whether it was work or love, they were not as important as her parents.

That was why she decided to pull herself together.

At noon, when Mabie came to

.n

deliver the meal, Vera personally fed David porridge. He was only allowed to eat light food as he had just woken up from a coma, and his body was still recovering. Not only that, he wasn't allowed to eat too much.

Vera fed him very slowly. She was very focused on this task.

Mabie, who was watching the scene from the side, could not help but ask, "Have you two reconciled? Did you two talk about it?"

"Of course, Mom. Otherwise, do you think I will be feeding dad right now?" Vera looked at Mabie helplessly. She felt that her mother really could not read a room.

She had to touch a sore spot.

Mabie wanted to say something else, but Vera interrupted her. "Mom, have you eaten?"

"Not yet. I was busy cooking but I did bring some food for us. We can eat together." "Then you can eat first."

"Alright then."

Mabie did not stand on ceremony; she went ahead and ate. She suddenly thought of something while she was eating. She looked at Vera and said, "By the way, I bumped into Amelia again when I left the house."

Vera subconsciously frowned when she heard Amelia's name.

"Amelia told me that one of her friend's daughter married a rich businessman. She's now living the rich life. She's been spending her time in a luxurious resort these days. She even bought all kinds of luxury goods for her elders."

Vera frowned even more when she heard this. What was Amelia trying to tell her mother?

"Mom, do you want me to marry a rich businessman so that I can buy luxury goods for you and Dad?"

"Pfft!" Mabie retorted. "What kind of

person do you think I am? Yes, I

want you to get married, but I wasn't

planning on selling my daughter. What's so good about being rich?

heard that although they are rich, they would often quarrel. The girl would sometimes come home crying. They don't want to show the ugly side of their family. However, I heard rumors that her husband has a mistress, that's why they often quarrel. So, what's the point of being able to buy luxury goods? They don't even live a happy life."

Vera blushed with shame.

"Mom, what on earth are you trying to say?"

Mabie put down her food in embarrassment and rubbed her hands together as she said, "Actually, I just want to know why did you and your boyfriend break up?"

Vera said, "Mom! Didn't I tell you that we did not even get together? Don't ask about this anymore."

At this point, she lowered her voice and said, "Dad is still here."

David chuckled when he heard his name. He did not seem to be curious at all, but he was happy to listen to Mabie and Vera bicker with each other.

He had not seen this scene for a long time. It warmed his heart.

"Your dad is not an outsider. What's wrong with him knowing that you're dating? You're a grown woman. Your prime years will be gone in two years."
