Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1267

That woman came out of nowhere, and he had heard her conversation with Jennifer. So when he heard that his uncle was going to meet with that woman, he was immediately on high alert. He had to tag along and keep an eye on his uncle.

Beanie snorted.

He didn't care about what others thought; Vera would definitely be his uncle's wife in the future.

If it were in the past, Beanie wouldn't forcefully insist like this. However, after Beanie knew Vera became Quill's girlfriend, he would only acknowledge Vera as his auntie.

Both Maddox and Beanie had ulterior motives. Only Jelly Bean, who was in Maddox's arms, was still laughing foolishly. Then, Maddox pointed at her and looked at Minerva without any expression, "See, even Jelly Bean wants to follow."

Hearing that, the corner of Minerva's lips twitched.

He could have just tagged along if he wanted to; was it necessary for him to spout such nonsense? She decided to ignore him and send a message to Yulia.

The restaurant Minerva booked was in the hotel below where Yulia was staying, in hopes of bringing convenience to her. She would still be able to make it in time if she took the elevator downstairs when Minerva and Quill arrived.

Whereas the Ocean Villa was slightly further away, hence Minerva had to leave earlier.

Throughout the journey, Jelly Bean was making baby sounds. She would play with her hands and bite on her fist, and at some point, she would chuckle as she played with Beanie.

Because of sweet Jelly Bean, the atmosphere in the car was vivid.

Soon, they arrived at the hotel lobby.

Just when Minerva was about to text Yulia, she saw a familiar figure standing by the hotel entrance.

It was Yulia.

Minerva didn't expect her to come down so early.

Yulia smiled sweetly and walked toward Minerva when she saw her.

"Minerva, you're here."

Minerva looked at her surprisingly, "Didn't I ask you to come down only after we've arrived? You must have waited for a long time."

Yulia shook her head and denied. She replied softly, "I didn't wait for long. You've arrived just as I came down."

Actually, she had been waiting for about half an hour.

Ever since Minerva said she would arrange the meet-up, Yulia had been on edge. It had been such a long time since she last met Quill. She grew up with him, but she didn't expect that they would lose contact It was such a pity.

Therefore, Yulia waited for them downstairs, worried that she would miss him.

Minerva had a hunch that she must have waited there for a long time. As for how long it was, she couldn't put her finger on it, but it must have been over ten minutes. Judging from the eagerness in her eyes, Minerva could tell she looked forward to the meeting very much.

Thinking about this, Minerva felt a slight sense of regret. She wondered if she should ask Vera to come over.

No.

They were just having a casual meet-up. Although she told the receptionist they were engaged when they were children, it was all in the past. They had grown up now; what was the relevance of the past with the present?

As adults, they had their opinions.

Thinking about this, Minerva felt relieved in her heart. She gave Quill a call and was told that he would reach the hotel in ten minutes. Therefore, Minerva brought Yulia to the private room she had booked. When Yulia followed behind her, she saw an adult and a child by her side.

No, there was another child in the arms of the adult.

Seeing Yulia staring, Minerva chuckled awkwardly and explained, "Let me introduce them to you, Yulia. This is my husband, son and daughter."

Hearing that, Yulia widened her eyes

and was slightly shocked, but her expression soon returned to normal. She smiled lightly and said, "Of course, so many years have passed. You're no longer the baby in everyone's arms. It's about time you got married and had a family of your own."

When she said this, she looked at Minerva and her family. There was a hint of relief in her gaze, like an elder.

Minerva didn't know how to react to her gaze. After all, Yulia looked to be only slightly older than her, but she looked at her with such affection.

It was a complicated feeling.

It was at this moment, Yulia inadvertently asked, "Even you already have a family of your own. What about Quill? So many years have passed; he must live a happy life now, doesn't he?"

A chill crept up on Minerva; she didn't expect her to bring the topic up.

But after a second thought, Minerva thought about Quill's fame in this city; it wouldn't be difficult to replace out whether he was single. She knew that Yulia wasn't a fool since she would ask such a question. Although it seemed inadvertent, she was, in fact, probing. If Minerva didn't overthink, it would be just another simple question.

However, Vera's existence made it inevitable for her to overthink such matters.

Minerva smiled and replied to her vaguely.

"Quill? He is indeed quite happy now."

He got a girlfriend; what else could bring more joy and bliss than this?

What Minerva said was the truth. As for what Yulia would think, it was none of her business. After all, she was not that close with Yulia. Hence, she wouldn't explain too much to her.

Maddox and Beanie glanced at each other as they heard the ladies' conversation. "Women sure are scary." They thought.

Soon, they went into the private room. As Quill was reaching soon, Minerva requested the dishes to be served as soon as they settled down.

Minerva had wanted to sit with Yulia. However, the moment she sat down, Maddox and Beanie sat beside her respectively.

Minerva wanted to roll her eyes.

Yulia didn't think much of it. She just looked at them with a smile and sat opposite them.

She was unsolicited by nature. Even if Maddox and Beanie hadn't sat by Minerva's side, Yulia wouldn't actively sit by her side since her family was there. She was not that ignorant. In fact, she even complimented her.

"Your family sure has a strong bond."

Minerva could only smile and nod. She could tell that Yulia had great manners. Although Vera was pretty decent as well, if it were to be in the past, Vera would most probably lose her confidence if she met someone like Yulia.

Minerva could only be grateful in her heart that Yulia appeared later than Vera did.

No. The right person would appear

at the right time. It didn't matter if they were early or late. Just like how she and Maddox had separated five years ago. Because they loved each other, and couldn't live without one another, that even after five years had passed, there wasn't anyone who could be in their way.

Therefore, even if Yulia appeared earlier, it wouldn't change a thing.

Based on Quill's personality, he wouldn't waver once he set his mind on someone.

Minerva then felt relieved after thinking it through.
