Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1089

Vera initially didn't want to talk about the topic. However, these bunch of people wouldn't stop asking her about it.

They constantly asked her about her job; Vera knew that they were just curious and didn't have any ill intentions. However, as she kept giving the same answers, she felt that she was about to explode. She simply got a piece of cake and hid in the corner. As she silently ate the strawberry on the cake, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.

The woman wore a beautiful, dazzling nightgown. She was gorgeous as her figure was slim and slender. There were several people by her side, and she looked very popular.

Vera knew this person. She was Helen Lowell, a loyal client of Minerva's company.

Why was she here too?

Vera was a little surprised. Back then, due to Helen's interest in Minerva's design and her admiration for Minerva, she immediately signed a long-term contract with Minerva's company. Helen didn't dare to send messages to Minerva frequently. Back then, during the wedding incident, Helen didn't dare to look for Minerva openly as well.

She sent messages to the people in the company to indirectly inquire about Minerva's situation. At that time, Vera was one of the people she asked, and Vera replied, "If you want to know so badly, why don't you ask her yourself?"

Helen sent a crying emoji and added, "I do want to, but they haven't found Maddox yet. I'm afraid she'd be upset if I asked, but I'm also worried. So, I could only ask you guys about it. I don't have any other intentions. Please don't misunderstand."

Vera understood and told Helen that Minerva was fine. She didn't have anything to worry about.

Ever since Vera left the company, It had been a while since she met Helen. She never expected to run into her that day.

As she was thinking, Helen saw her. Her eyes lit up and immediately walked toward Vera.

"Vera, turns out you're here. I knew you'd be here today, but I didn't see you earlier." Helene greeted.

Vera was a little surprised. She didn't expect her to come over and say hello first.

She wanted to stay invisible in the corner. After all, she'd catch a lot of attention just by being close to Helen.

After all, she was a popular celebrity and this party was full of people from her previous company.

She raised her hands to Helen and gave her a faint smile as a way of greeting her.

"I was with Minerva just now," Vera explained in a soft tone.

Helen pretended to be enlightened. "I see. How is my goddess? She's been well, hasn't she? I heard people from the company say that she came back to Hidalgo with Young Master Yardley?" Helen asked. "Yes." Vera nodded. "She's been doing great. You don't have to worry about her," Vera continued.

"Phew." Helen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's great."

All of a sudden, she noticed the cake Vera was having and thought that it looked delicious. Then, she asked Vera where she got the cake from.

"Do you want a slice? I'm going to get another slice for myself. I'll grab one for you too," Vera asked.

Helen thanked her.

"Yes please, thank you," Helen said.

Soon after, Vera returned with two slices of cakes. Helen's face lit up with joy when she saw Vera return. She took the cake from her hand, took a bite and let out a gasp.

"It's delicious. I haven't eaten cake in such a long time," Helen exclaimed.

"Why?" Vera seemed puzzled and asked.

"It's tough to be a celebrity. I have to control my diet and manage my figure well. If I were to gain the lightest weight, my fans would hate me," Helen explained.

Vera was taken aback.

Her fans would hate her for putting on a little weight? What kind of fans were they?

Upon seeing the disbelief on Vera's face, Helen explained, "You don't believe it either, do you? I used to think that way too. I thought if they were your fans, they would genuinely like you and would never dislike or insult you just because you put on a little weight. But the truth is many fans out there admire the celebrity just because they look good. They would build standards for them and believe they should only behave a certain way. When the celebrity acts differently, they would no longer be a fan and even insult the celebrity at times. Of course, there are also genuine fans out there."

Vera had never been in the entertainment industry. She only knew that it could be manipulative. You would have to sacrifice certain things to get what you wanted; it was complicated. It would be

for those who were famous, it was tough too. They had to stay relevant and try not to be replaced. They had to constantly be aware of their actions and not do anything reckless because they were always being watched.

"It must be tough to live like this." Vera thought for a moment and said.

She didn't want this for herself.

Helen became a little absent-minded when she heard Vera's statement.

"Yes, it's hard. But sometimes, when I see the many people supporting me, I feel like it's worth it." Helen explained.

As soon as she finished talking, Helen took another spoonful of cake and put it into her mouth.

"Oh, my God!"

A sharp voice suddenly rang.

As the voice sounded, the cake in Helen's hand was also snatched away by a big hand.

"Helen, I only left for a moment, and you're already being reckless! Can you not do this?"

Helen shrugged indifferently. "I didn't do anything reckless. Aren't I just having some food here?" Helen replied.

The person was Helen's agent.

He lifted the cake in his hand and said, "Do you know what this is? It's cake! It's full of cream! Do you want to wear yourself out in the gym. tomorrow? Are you not aware that you'll end up on the headlines if you gain weight?"

Helen patted him on the shoulder.

"Oh, I just ate two mouthfuls. I won't gain any weight," Helen calmly said.

"If I hadn't come early, you would've eaten the whole thing, wouldn't you?" The agent anxiously spoke.

Helen remained silent.

She had indeed thought so. She was tired of restraining herself and wanted to let go for a moment.

Vera admitted that she couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so she decided to speak up for Helen.

"Well... I think she's already very slim. It doesn't matter if she eats a small piece of cake once in a while," Vera said.

"What do you know? A normal person would look three times their size on camera! If she didn't keep an eye on her figure, the camera would make her look worse!" The agent said. Vera was dumbstruck by the agent's statement.

Helen comforted Vera with a smile. "It's alright. I'm used to being this way. I won't disturb you from enjoying your cake anymore. I'll excuse myself for now," Helen said.

"Alright," Vera replied.

As soon as Helen and her agent left together, Vera sat and ate the cake silently.

She didn't know how long she had been sitting there. She had some juice, cake, and a lot of snacks.

She decided to go to the bathroom after drinking too much.

Vera subconsciously touched her round belly and gave out a sigh of satisfaction.

She thought not being a celebrity was better; she didn't have to watch what she was eating. However, overeating was not good either; she just couldn't help herself that day. Vera got up and went to the bathroom.

However, when she came out of the bathroom, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.
