Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1223

She took the itinerary and looked at it carefully.

The plan for the day was quite simple. They would take a boat out to sea and head to a beautiful island. There were various activities there, including a bonfire party at night. If they were tired, there would be a shuttle to take them directly to the hotel. There was even a hot spring. All of it sounded tempting.

Vera agreed to it immediately. She even thought that she could take more pictures with Quill on the island. After all, the photos they took on the bed the night before were not instagramable.

Seeing that Vera was satisfied, Dimitri was also happy. He was worried that his impromptu plan would fail. It was good that they were satisfied.

Just as everyone was about to set off, a person suddenly came.

"Vera, where are you guys going?"

The person's sudden appearance shocked Vera, and she raised her head to look in their direction.

Lauren?

When did she come here? Vera hadn't even

noticed.

While she was lost in her thoughts, Lauren came up to her and said, "Vera, why are you ignoring me?"

Vera came to her senses and said, "I'm not. Lauren, why are you here? You haven't recovered yet, have you? You should stay in the hotel at a time like this."

"The hotel is too boring, and I'm alone. It's very tiring. Can I go out with you guys?"

Go out with them? Vera was a little reluctant. After all, this was a chance for her and Quill to be alone. Vera knew that Lauren had a motive, so she wasn't quite willing to take her with them.

As Lauren felt Vera's hesitation, she quickly came forward and took Vera's arm. "C'mon, Vera, take me along. I'm really bored in the hotel alone."

Vera had the softest heart, and she was a little moved by Lauren's plea. But she wasn't alone, so she turned to Quill.

Quill understood what she wanted to ask, so he whispered, "You can do whatever you want. You don't have to ask for my opinion."

His eyes were full of love. It seemed that as long as Vera did not commit murder or arson, he would agree wholeheartedly to whatever she wanted to do.

Why didn't such a man spoil her? Lauren was so jealous. It would be great if it were her.

It seemed that she had to make use of the time and make a move.

"Alright then, you can come with us, but I have to ask the staff if we can bring one more person," Vera said.

Dimitri was standing by the side the whole time, so he had naturally heard their conversation.

When he heard that Vera was going to ask him, he was suddenly put in a tough position.

"The plan is set for two people. If there is an additional person, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult..."

Vera was rather happy when she heard this. Maybe she was selfish, but it would be best if she didn't have to decide what to do.

Unfortunately, Lauren said, "Don't worry. I'll pay for it myself. How much is it?"

After hearing that Lauren would pay for it, he immediately smiled and agreed.

"That's settled then. You pay for the expenses. These things are not free after all."

Dimitri let out a sigh of relief, seeing that it was settled. He felt that he had done a good thing. Mr. and Mrs. Hanover would probably be very happy, wouldn't they? Who would've thought, as soon as he turned, he saw the sadness in Vera's eyes. Dimitri was shocked for a moment, and then he immediately reacted.

Why was he so stupid? They were a husband and wife on a trip; wouldn't she be third wheeling if she joined them? Why hadn't he considered that faet? He had only thought about money. Was money so important? If the couple was unhappy and gave him a bad evaluation, his semi- annual bonus would be gone...

However, he couldn't take back his words anymore. His heart was full of bitterness.

But what could he do? He could only take things a step at a time. He would have to follow them closely and try his best to create opportunities for the two of them to be alone. For his semi-annual bonus, Dimitri could only do so!

When they boarded the ship, he looked at Vera and whispered, "Don't worry, Mrs. Hanover. I won't let you down!"

Vera was confused.

What happened? What did he mean? What was he going to do?

Before Vera could ask him anything, Dimitri had

already left.

She was full of questions, but she could only return to her seat. Vera wanted to sit closer to the water, so Quill gave her the seat inside.

As she was walking back, she saw Lauren walking toward the seat that Vera had chosen.

Vera's face grew dim slightly. When she was about to stop her, a cold voice beat her to it.

"You're in the wrong seat."

Quill was the one who spoke. Lauren would have to pass Quill to get to the seat, so Quill stretched out his legs and blocked her way. He had no intention of letting Lauren sitthere. Instead, he stared coldly at her.

Lauren hadn't expected that Quill

would treat her like that. She could

only say with a low voice, "Mr.

Hanover, I want to sit inside. Can't I?

There are still so many seats outside."

With that, Lauren pointed to the seat outside.

Vera had wanted to go over, but she stopped to see how Quill would handle it.

Sadly, after finishing his words, Quill didn't look at Lauren anymore.

Lauren was a little frustrated. She had wanted to sit inside, but she didn't expect Quill to be so heartless. Not only didn't he let her go in, but he also didn't even answer her.

She felt extremely humiliated, but she didn't want to give up. So she aimed at the other seat next to Quill.

Just as she was about to sit down, a cold voice rang out again.

"I've already told you that you're in the wrong seat. Why are you still here?"

Lauren looked up, shocked; Quill's gaze at her was ice cold. She said, "What? How am I in the wrong seat? I can't sit here either?"

"Yes." Quill nodded mercilessly.

Lauren was baffled. "Why is that? Is there some misunderstanding between us, Mr. Hanover?"
