"If disfiguring my face can give you more confidence, then I'm willing to do so." His hand took hold of hers. Then, he said in a deep voice, "That's because to me, you're the most important thing in the world. I don't care about what other people think about me."

Minerva's heart was violently moved when she heard these words.

It was true... Having each other was the most important thing, and what other people thought had nothing to do with her.

However, she cared most about Maddox's opinion. Now that he had told her that he was willing to disfigure his face to be with her to make her feel more confident, there was no reason for her to continue being insecure.

Thinking of this, she held his hands. He felt it and let out a laugh before he gripped her hand tighter.

"So what happens now? Are you still going to reject me in the future?"

She shook her head. "I won't reject you anymore."

"Do you still think that you're not good enough for me?"

She continued to shake her head.

Love was not about being good enough for the other person, but it was about how deep was your love for them and if you were willing to love them. "No, I don't."

He was very satisfied with her answer, so he asked again.

"Are we going to switch on the lights then?"

"Sure..." She subconsciously opened her mouth and said a word. However, she realized that something was wrong and quickly stopped. Her scalp tensed up, and she immediately took back her words, "No, don't!"

He laughed in a low voice and leaned towards her. He placed his thin lips on the back of her head and kissed her gently as if he was coaxing a child. "Be good and turn on the lights. Otherwise, you won't be able to see when you wake up in the middle of the night later."

Every night, she would sneak out of bed to use the bathroom. She didn't want him to know about it, but it turned out that he knew about it all along.

Sure enough, nothing could be hidden from the person who slept beside you in bed.

After thinking about it for a long time, she thought that there was no need to be insecure since she had talked to him about it.

"Switch on the lights then..."

"Good girl."

He kissed the back of her head with satisfaction, and then he let go of her and turned to turn on the lamp on the bedside table.

The soft light filled the whole room at once. After turning on the light, the man behind her leaned over and held her hand tightly. He lifted her long hair and kissed her on the back of her neck with his thin lips. "Good girl, it's time to sleep."

"Alright." She nodded her head in satisfaction before closing her eyes.

Minerva had always loved sleeping and because of this matter, she wasn't able to sleep well. After she talked to Maddox about it, she didn't have any worries anymore. So she closed her eyes and fell asleep within a minute.

After laying down for a while, he could hear the sound of her breathing and his gaze flashed with a sense of happiness.

She fell asleep so fast. It seemed that she was no longer bothered by the matter.

However, it was his fault too for realizing her worries so late. If he had figured it out earlier and talked to her, he wouldn't have to spend his nights in the guest room.

Ever since Vera brought Quill food, she would go over to Hanover Corporation every day to send food. At first, the receptionist at the front desk would call Juliette every time to check for an appointment. Later on, Juliette informed the receptionist directly.

"President Hanover said from now on that when Miss Zais comes over, you can just send her up."

The receptionist was shocked and glanced at Vera. She didn't think that a delivery girl would be allowed to come and go in Hanover Corporation freely. Moreover, she was going into President Hanover's office. There were so many girls in the company who wanted to get closer to him, but they ended up losing to a delivery girl.

The receptionist conveyed the message to Vera in an insincere tone. After Vera left, the receptionist immediately gossiped about it in a group chat.

After replaceing out about it, the girls in the group became indignant.

"How could this happen? How did a delivery girl get so lucky? I should've known earlier. At least I wouldn't have worked in finance. Instead, I would start doing food delivery."

"Hey, come on. A job as a food delivery girl would never be as comfortable as your job in finance."

"Girl, you don't get it. President Hanover is such a catch and if I could get close to him by doing food delivery, why would I still be working in finance? I would become the president's wife instantly." "Well, he has to want you in the first place."

"I... I want to be a food delivery girl too! How lucky! Wasn't there a rumor about President Hanover not being interested in women? I heard that he had never had a girlfriend until this age. Also, there's one more thing I want to tell you guys."

The women in the group hurriedly asked what it was about.

"It's Juliette. I heard that she used to like President Hanover, but because he didn't like women, she never dared to approach him. She wanted to stay by his side and hoped that one day he would fall in love with her Who knew that he wouldn't end up having feelings for such a pretty woman after so many years?"

A lot of people had known about that, and their hearts had been broken by it.

After all, Juliette's outstanding talents were apparent. Her ability to handle matters, her figure, and her appearance were all first-class. Most of the girls had given up on Quill just at the thought of how amazing she was.

Later on, like Juliette, those girls got their own boyfriends, and some had gotten married. They had all lost hope on Quill.

Who knew that it would be a delivery girl?

It was such a humiliation!

Death was better than humiliation!

"Tell us, is the delivery girl pretty? Does she have long legs?"

The receptionist tried hard to think about Vera's appearance. She was petite, and she looked decent. She was the type who didn't look extraordinarily beautiful but after a period of time, you would replace her very attractive. She was young and energetic.

She was the type who seemed not pretty enough, but at the same time, one wished they looked like her.

The receptionist indeed had that thought before because Vera looked outgoing and energetic. Hence, it was a sign of youth.

"F*ck. Why would a successful man like President Hanover fall for a girl like this?"

The receptionist felt envied Vera deeply, so she ended up replying, "I can't remember what she looks like."

"Oh my god, you can't even

remember her face? How ordinary

could she be? I'm okay with losing to Juliette and I'll accept it if President Hanover is not interested in dating, but to lose to a food delivery girl with an average face? Are you guys going to accept that?!"

"I can't accept it. I will not."

"What time is she coming tomorrow? How about we go take a look at what she looks like?"

Later, the receptionist told everyone

about the time of day that Vera would drop by every day. Then she thought about something and told the girls, "Although she isn't officially the president's girlfriend, she is allowed to come and go freety in the elevators and his office with his express permission. You guys can have a look, but don't do anything bad that would ruin me."

After all, she was the one who had told them the place and time that Vera would show up. If anything bad was to happen to Vera, she would be the first person to be questioned.

She was not that stupid since she was the one who spread the information in the first place.
