Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1250

Vera stood rooted to the ground completely and looked at him in a daze.

"Y-you don't want to go to the hospital?"

What did he mean? Vera's cheeks turned red all of a sudden. She pursed her lips, and her eyes were wide open.

"Hmm?"

He leaned closer, and his lips were nearly touching hers. Vera felt that her breathing was going to stop.

She thought that if he kissed her at this time, she would not refuse.

So be it!

They were a couple, after all. Hadn't she been hesitant because Quill hadn't expressed any of his needs to her?

It would be nice if they took this opportunity to make it official!

Just as Vera decided to be heroic, she heard Quill ask, "Are you scared?"

Hearing this, Vera shook her head hard and denied it.

"If you're not afraid, why aren't you speaking?"

"Well..." Vera wanted to explain, but Quill smiled faintly and let go of her chin. Then he tapped the tip of her nose. "Dummy, what are you afraid of? I won't hurt you. It's getting late. Quickly take a shower and go to bed. We still have a trip tomorrow."

Vera looked at him quizzically. He actually asked her to take a shower and sleep at this time? Was he a fool? What was he to do if she took a shower and slept?

Moreover, he said he wouldn't hurt her; did he mean he wouldn't touch her? Was it because he thought she was afraid?

While thinking, Quill was already ready to turn around and leave. Vera didn't know what she was thinking, but before she could react, she had already rushed to wrap her arms around his waist! "I-I'm not going to take a shower. I want to be with you!"

After stammering, Vera buried her head in Quill's back and did not look up at him anymore. She just held his waist more tightly.

She didn't know where her courage came from, but she was sure that Quill would have already understood everything with his intelligence. Since Lauren came to him, and she had come back empty-handed, Quill would have definitely known Lauren had gone to look for her. That was why Quill looked at her with a faint smile and passionate eyes when she said the wrong thing earlier.

Thinking of this, Vera held Quill's waist even tighter. "I'll stay with you. I'm not going anywhere."

Although Vera was wrapping her arms around his waist tightly, he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Her sweet fragrance lingered in the air. Quill was already in bad shape since he had been drugged, and he had relied on the cold shower to alleviate the heat. Now that his girl had run to him without the least bit of care, the burning sensation had returned once more.

Quill initially only had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, but now, his veins were popping. He seemed to be restraining himself. She was still so young. How could she lose something important to her because of other's momentary mistakes?

Thinking of this, Quill said in a cold voice, restraining, "Let me go. Vera, be good. Go take a shower and go to bed."

"No." Vera held him tighter and bit her lower lip so tightly that it almost bled. She seemed to have made an important decision. "I'm your girlfriend. I... I can help you..." Quill was speechless.

Her voice became softer and softer as she spoke because she was shy. It was like a cat's claw gently scratching Quill's heart, which made him feel a little more pain. "Silly girl, hadn't I just told you? I won't hurt you. Be good."

After that, Quill removed her hand. Vera mustered up all her courage to hug him just now. Now that Quill had pushed her away, she suddenly lost her dependence and had no courage to go forward anymore; she could only look at Quill's back as she stood rooted to the spot. She bit her lower lip and wanted to speak but stopped on her second thought.

Vera suddenly remembered what Lauren said to her.

"I'm sure you know what it means when a man is not interested in his girlfriend, don't you?"

No, she couldn't let her imagination run wild. She had already made it clear to Lauren. She couldn't let her drive a wedge between them at a time like this.

Thinking of this, Vera slowly walked toward Quill. She did not try to hug him again but walked behind him and opened her mouth carefully.

"I... don't think you'll hurt me. I'm your girlfriend,

not someone else... Besides..."

She paused for a moment, and she clenched her hands into fists nervously. She took a deep breath and said, "Besides, I'm willing..." Vera said the last few words in a barely audible voice; she didn't know if Quill heard it.

Quill's body shook.

Of course, he knew Vera's thoughts; he knew it long ago.

After Vera finished her words, Quill didn't say anything for a long white. Seeing so, she summoned up the courage to wrap her arms around his waist and buried her face in his back again.

"So, you don't have to worry about me."

Quill grabbed her wrists, dragged her in front of him, and stared at her dangerously as he squinted.

"Do you know what the hell you're talking about? You're telling me that you're willing to do it under these circumstances?"

His sudden anger caused Vera to be at a loss. Her lips opened, but in the end, she just silently nodded.

Vera thought Quill's palms were much warmer after what she said. She felt as if her wrists were clasped in burning iron. She also began to feel a little upset. She bit her lower lip and suddenly raised her head.

"I am willing! I'm your girlfriend. This kind of thing is normal. I already said I'm willing, why aren't you? Is it because you don't like me enough? So you'd rather suffer and not even touch me?!"

Quill didn't reply to her.

"Is it just as Lauren said? You are not interested in me at all. That's why you don't want anything to do with me. If so, I..." Before she could finish her words, Quill suddenly leaned over and picked her up. He then strode toward the bedroom.

Before she knew it, Vera's back hit the soft mattress, and then Quill pinned her down.

Her eyes widened, and her breathing suddenly stopped.

This... What...

He grabbed her wrists and put them above her head. His gaze was ablaze, and his voice was extremely deep and hoarse.

"Silly girl, do you know that you are provoking me by saying these words?"

Vera was still speaking rhetorically just now, but she soon cowered under his pressure.
