This time, Vera was sure that she had really given up.

If things like that happened in the past, she might not even be able to leave, but now... She could control herself so as to not continue to stay with him, and she could also not look at him.

As long as she persisted, she would definitely forget Quill.

"Auntie Vera..."

Beanie seemed to want to say something but was interrupted by her, "Well, you are a child, so you don't know much yet. Don't say anything more. I am going to cook for you now. You can have your hot chocolate in the living room while waiting. When I'm done cooking, I will call you."

After that, she closed the kitchen door immediately regardless of his reaction.

Obviously, she didn't want him to ask anymore.

She looked so distressed, and he didn't dare to say anything more.

He silently held the drink in his arms and went back to the living room. The hot chocolate which he usually thought was delicious, lost its sweetness and deliciousness at this moment. He got tired of drinking it. Beanie took a few sips and put it down. Then, he looked at the closed kitchen door.

Should he tell her that it was Uncle Quill who had sent him here just now?

Moreover, he also knew where she lived.

However, looking at Auntie Vera, he didn't know whether she would be sadder or not if he had told her.

For a moment, he struggled to make a decision.

Bad uncle. He must have done something that hurt her. However, Beanie really didn't know what had happened and she certainly wouldn't tell him.

When Vera came out from the kitchen, she had already controlled her emotions well.

Seeing that Beanie had only taken a few sips of the hot chocolate, she was a little surprised and asked, "What's wrong? Is it not good?"

He quickly replied, "No. The hot chocolate is tasty, but I was afraid that I would be too full to eat the pasta if I drank too much, so I decided not to drink so much before eating."

Hearing this, she couldn't help but laugh. She reached out her hands and pinched his cheek lightly. "It's okay. It's good that you realize that the main course is important. The pasta dish is ready, come and eat." While Beanie was eating the food, he observed Vera's expression and found that she looked as if nothing had happened. He dared not say the things that he would like to say initially as he was afraid that it would cause her to recall the sad memories again.

"By the way, I called your mommy while cooking the pasta just now. I told her that you're here with me. You little brat, you actually lied to me that you've already told your mommy. She wouldn't have known that you're here if I hadn't called her."

He was eating pasta while replying, "Hmm."

He didn't mean to keep it a secret from her. He just didn't want to interrupt his parents.

"You can't do this next time, okay?"

"Okay, Auntie Vera."

While eating, he suddenly asked, "Auntie Vera, are you going to open your own restaurant?"

"Yes." She nodded and said, "I want to open a pasta restaurant. What you are eating now is my new product. Does it not taste different from before?"

He immediately complimented, "Oh, really? No wonder it's so delicious! Auntie Vera, can I go to your restaurant to eat your pasta everyday?"

"Sure, I won't charge you money when you come. You can pay with your labor."

"Labor?" Beanie tilted his head slightly and asked.

"That's right." Vera smiled and said, "Let's say, help me wash the dishes, serve the food, clean the tables, and so on."

"Oh?" He was wondering. "Wash the dishes, serve the food, and clean the tables? Are you asking me to be a waiter?"

She was just kidding with him.

However, looking at the seriousness and even a little bit of expectation in his eyes, she began to imagine and couldn't help but laugh before

saying, "Yeah, I will also orderl. ne

special waiter's uniform for you. Then, you can bring in more customers at the entrance. How good it is!"

He had his hopes up; it seemed to be very fun!

"Auntie Vera, can I choose the color of my uniform?"

"Well?"

She blinked her eyes and said, "You really want to come, don't you? I was just kidding with you. If you really put on the waiter's uniform and stand at the entrance to bring i customers, everyone will think that I

am abusing children."

After that, Vera reached out her hands and gently stroked Beanie's head and said softly, "By then, you can just come to the shop whenever you like. There is no need to help."

Seeing her acting like this, he didn't know why but he suddenly felt so sad and wanted to cry.

He felt that something he didn't know must have happened during that period of time, which worsened the relationship between her and Uncle Quill. At this moment, he was splitting hairs and started to imagine things.

He was wondering if it was all

because he pleaded with her to take him abroad, and Uncle Quill thought it was her who took him abroad without telling him. Then, they had a quarrel because Quill was angry with her about this.

Thinking of this possibility, Beanie felt somewhat frustrated. Was it really because of him?

Besides, he had also made Auntie Vera very sad this time.

Although she did not show her emotions explicitly, it would be a pity if such a good woman could not be his aunt...

However, these were just his own thoughts. He didn't say a word, nor expressed it on his face.

Time passed quickly. Vera quickly sent the boy back to Ocean Villa before night fell.

At the entrance of Ocean Villa, there were several security guards. When they saw Beanie returning, they all went forward to greet him.

Beanie took Vera's hand and said, "Auntie Vera, don't you want to go in and see mommy? I'm sure Mommy misses you a lot."

"I miss your mommy too, but I have to deliver food to the hospital. Anyway, there's still a chance to meet your mommy soon, so I won't go in today. Beanie, go back obediently, and I will pick you up tomorrow, okay?"

He could only nod and watch as she got in her car before she left.

"Young Master Beanie, you're back."

He looked up and saw that it was the guards who were greeting him. The depressed look on his face suddenly became cheerful again, and he smiled at them.

"Hello, uncles!"

"Oh, such a good boy."

"Yeah, Young Master Beanie has really good manners. He is much more considerate than the children from the other families."

When Beanie walked to the corner, he waved his little hand to them.

"I'll go in first."

Minerva became more and more sleepy these days, but her appetite was not very good. She would want to eat very badly when she was hungry, but her appetite would be gone all of a sudden when the food was in her mouth.

Thus, in the past two days, she was really ravenous, but she couldn't eat anything.

She would suddenly want to eat some hot and spicy snacks and also all kinds of fast food.

Of course, Maddox would not allow her to eat these foods.

It was well-known that the snack stalls were not clean. However, in order to satisfy their own appetite, many people would still eat street food.
