Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1137

Mabie followed behind Vera.

Amelia sat there, looking rather awkward. Her eyes sparkled at the sight of the pasta. It smelled so good, and she had a taste right after Vera placed it down on the table.

"Your cooking skills are pretty good. You can make money and cook; that makes for great wife material. It would be a blessing for anyone who marries you."

The corner of Vera's lips twitched when she heard what she said.

She couldn't wait even for a moment to have a man introduced to her? She couldn't even wait to talk about it until she'd finished her pasta. The pasta should have been hard to resist.

In the next moment, Amelia stopped talking to Vera, as the pasta was too delicious, and she continued eating.

"Enjoy the pasta, Amelia. I'll be busy," Vera said.

"Vivy, don't be in a hurry to leave. I came here today because I have something I'd like to talk to you about," Amelia said.

Mabie stood there with a look on her face and thought to herself, "I knew it. I knew this would happen."

Vera replied, "Amelia, let's talk another day. The restaurant is quite busy today."

"No, no, let's talk now. I'll make it quick. Five minutes will do."

Vera was speechless.

"I have a nephew who came looking for me a few days ago. From what I can see, he is quite good looking and seems like an honest man. Apparently he already owns a house, but has yet to replace a girlfriend. Vivy, you've been back for a while but still haven't gotten yourself a boyfriend, right? Thus, I thought of introducing you two to each other. Why not try to get to know him?"

In the past, Mabie would encourage it if someone wanted to introduce a boyfriend to Vera. However, she had seen Vera heartbroken just a few days ago. If she was to be introduced to a suitor now, it would only fail miserably and it would make her feel annoyed.

Hence, she had already refused Amelia before Vera came.

Who would have known that Amelia just wouldn't give up the idea. She kept praising her nephew, insisting on letting the two of them meet each other and giving it a shot.

"Uhh, Amelia, my daughter is pretty occupied with running the restaurant. You can see it too. Does she look like she has the time?" Mabie interrupted with a smile. Amelia immediately waved her hands and rebutted.

"That's not a problem. I'll call him, and ask him to come by."

Mabie and Vera went quiet.

The two of them looked at each other in dismay, at a loss for words. Were they going to have a blind date right at her restaurant?

"Amelia, now is not a good time, is it?" Mabie asked uncertainly, "The restaurant is very busy. What if we are unable to attend to him when he comes here?"

"It's alright. He is a very helpful and hardworking person. You can even get him to help while he's here. Vivy, honestly, you are a great girl. It's too much work for you to run the restaurant alone. Furthermore, your parents are getting old, and you can't keep relying on them to help you. Why not replace a man from the same city who has a house and get together with him? You can even have a few kids after you get married, and live a happy life."

Amelia had put it quite nicely, making life sound so easy and smooth sailing.

Unfortunately, Vera was not convinced.

However, Mabie was deeply impressed by Amelia's words. She had seen Quill the other day. He had been extremely handsome, but Vera was so mundane in comparison. Even if they got together, they wouldn't last very long.

As Amelia had said, it would be better to be practical and look for a realistic relationship instead.

However, she did not dare to agree.

"Vivy, he really is nice. Let me give him a call now, and ask him to come over."

Amelia then took out her mobile phone and began to make a phone call. She moved so fast that everyone didn't even have the time to react.

Mabie quickly said, "Amelia, you're too rash. This..."

"Mom, it's fine." Vera suddenly stopped her and smiled slightly. "You wanted me to go on a date, didn't you? Then let's do it."

Mabie's expression changed and she said, "Vivy, don't think like that. I wanted you to go on some dates hoping that you would be able to meet someone you like. I only want the best for you. If going on a date now makes you unhappy, then..."

"Nah." Vera interrupted her and said with a smile, "I think it's fine, going on a blind date. Amelia is right. I should meet someone and have a good life."

Mabie didn't know what to say in response.

Did she say that because she was heartbroken? She wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Amelia. "Oh, since your daughter has agreed, what are you worried about? If she is willing to go on this date, you shouldn't stop her. It's just like getting to know a new friend, it won't cost her anything. They can choose to keep in touch or not, after that. Nobody is going to force them."

"Yes, Mom. If I really don't like him, I'll just have him leave," Vera said.

Mabie sighed in relief. "Well, since you've decided, I won't stop you."

She supposed there was no harm for her to just meet him. Maybe her daughter would fall in love with him, and would then get over her previous relationship. It might work out. She felt much more at ease when she thought about it from that perspective.

That guy came very quickly after

Amelia gave him a call, and Mabie watched him talking to her from

Although he didn't look outset

afar. He wore a crisp white shirt.

he looked decent enough. He wore pair of glasses, and looked like a gentleman.

She nodded in approval at her first impression of him.

"He looks fine. What do you think?" She asked.

Her question received no answer. She turned her head, and found that Vera was looking at her phone, frowning.

"What's the matter?" Mabie leaned over and asked.

Vera looked up and locked her screen, slotting her phone into her pocket. She quickly replied, "Nothing."

Beanie had sent her a screenshot a moment ago. It showed a message of Quill returning the money, as he had told him to return it to her. Beanie had asked her what he should do. She had complicated feelings upon seeing the message.

Unexpectedly, Mabie looked over then.

"Nothing? Then why did you hide your phone? You look very distracted. Why don't you just cancel this blind date?"

Vera smiled and said, "Mom, I'm fine. Let's go."

Anyway, there weren't any

expectations for this blind date. She

could only leave it up to fate,

whether they would like each other or if they would even be compatible. Maybe she would end up like Juliette, who'd found a husband that loved her very much. In time, they

would have a happy family with children. Who would then bother

with that cold-hearted man?

At the thought of that, she took a deep breath, "He's already here? I'll go meet him."

"He's talking to Amelia," Mabie replied.

As they were speaking, Amelia led the man to them and introduced him to Vera.
