Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1134

Vera had become unsympathetic compared to the last time they met at the banquet.

When facing him, she no longer felt uneasy, no longer nervous and fearful, and even looked at him with sarcasm in her eyes. When she spoke, she also looked straight at him without any fear. It was good that she was like this.

However, what she said was not what he wanted to hear.

Quill frowned, giving off a depressing aura. He took a step forward and said, "Then you listen to me. I want to explain about that night."

When he mentioned that night, her expression changed, and she instantly remembered the scene where she had stupidly closed her eyes and waited for his kiss. As a result, when she had opened her eyes, he had pushed her away.

He must have seen what she looked like that moment. He must think that she was stupid!

Even now when she thought of it, she felt stupid and cheap.

It had come to an extent where even she detested herself. If she continued to be entangled with

Quill, she would be humiliated for the rest of her life.

As she thought about this, Vera spoke up with a cold expression.

"President Hanover, you don't have to explain. I can see it for myself."

He looked at her with clear, glistening eyes.

He tried to explain, "I drank too much that night, so..."

"That's enough!"

She suddenly covered her ears and took a big step backward. Her eyes were wide open, and tears began to build in her eyes. "I already said that you don't have to explain. I saw it clearly myself. What else do you want from me?"

He didn't understand her emotional outburst. He just stood there and frowned harder.

He had been looking for an opportunity to explain since that night, but she never came. He even came and waited for her for the whole day.

He didn't expect that she wasn't even willing to listen to his explanation.

She covered her ears and shouted, "I was not sensible before and did a lot of things that bothered you. I promise that it will not happen again. If you really think I am going too far, please let me go for your sister's sake!"

Right after she finished speaking, she left right away without waiting for him to react.

It wouldn't be good for him to stop her since she was so emotional.

Mabie was waiting aside.

She should not have eavesdropped on the conversation between the young people, but she was curious and worried. Hence, she quietly moved closer to them and wanted to hear what they were talking about.

However, shee did not expect that Vera would suddenly become so vehement, which almost scared her to death.

Soon, she saw that her daughter had had a breakdown. She spoke loudly while covering her ears, attracting the attention of many people on the sidewalk.

The moment Vera finished speaking, she ran away.

Mabie felt that Quill had been patient for waiting for a whole day, but looking at how he caused her daughter to be so upset, she did not bother talking to him anymore. Hence, without even looking at him, she immediately chased after Vera.

Vera was so emotional that she ran until she was out of breath. She didn't stop until she was out of energy. She bent over by the side of the road and gulped for air as if she was deprived of oxygen. Mabie, who was behind her, caught up to her and panted beside her.

"Oh, I almost died running after you, Vivy. Are you alright?"

When Vera heard her mother's voice, she realized that she had just acted ludicrously in front of her mother because of a man. She was stunned and then turned her head to look at Mabie, dazed.

"Don't be sad." Mabie smiled and

reached out to help her up. She wiped away. the tears at the corners of her eyes gently. "It's a small

matter, Besides, I didn't e

I

you

for what you did just now. Most of the time, one's emotions can't be controlled. Let's go home, okay?"

Initially, Vera was only crying due to her emotional outburst. Now, after hearing Mabie's words, she felt really upset.

She pursed her mouth, wanting to

hold back her tears. She then started

to bite down on her lower lip to prevent the tears from falling. She bit harder and harder until she tasted blood. However, she still couldn't hold back the grievances in her heart and burst into tears.

"It's okay, let's go home first." Mabie stepped forward and put her arms over her daughter's shoulders, and they looked like close sisters.

That night.

After Vera finished packing, she smiled weakly at Mabie, who had been by her side.

"Mom, you don't have to accompany me. Go back to rest."

"Really? Are you alright by yourself?"

"I am not a child anymore. Even if you leave me be, I can adjust to these things by myself. Don't worry. It's getting late. Go wash up and rest early." Although she felt as if her heart was stabbed, she still didn't want her mother to be tired because of her. Moreover, it was for a petty thing called love. What a joke.

"Alright then. You rest well too. If you need anything, come get me. Okay"

"Okay..."

Mabie finally left. Vera laid on the bed, staring blankly at the snow-white ceiling.

It was some time before she turned over and switched off the lamp on the bedside table.

The room was plunged into darkness, only leaving a pair of tearful eyes glistening under the moonlight.

The sun continued to rise the next day. Vera got ready and went out. When passing by the square, she saw that the square dancers were still enthusiastic and active. The workers who were rushing to work hurried to the subway station. The big screen on a high-rise building had changed to an advertisement featuring another celebrity.

The blue skies and fluffy white clouds remained the same.

It was true that no matter what happened, the earth still turned.

No matter how sad she was, life still went on, and she had to work hard to earn money to clear her debt.

When she arrived at the restaurant, she stood there, recalling the previous night.

It was here that he waited for her for a whole day.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, he was indeed sincere.

However, his actions had left a deep wound in her heart.

She didn't want to humiliate herself anymore.

When she was thinking of this, she took a deep breath and then opened the restaurant for business.

The Hanover Corporation.

The day before, President Hanover cancelled everything on his schedule and went out for a whole day without returning company. Juliette could only do what she could and arrange that day's schedule more tightly.

Despite this, she felt that there was something wrong with Quill that morning. He had a frightening and moody aura. He did not answer her when she spoke to him but just stood there with a sullen expression on his face. It made people feel very depressed.

She rubbed her nose and tactfully stayed away, staring at his back.

She had been his secretary for a long time. What was Quill up to the previous day? How could she not know?

But it seemed like it didn't go well?
