Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1269

Everyone fell silent for a long time.

They probably didn't expect things to turn out so meandering, yet she silently carried all the burden. Even though Minerva barely knew her, she still felt very moved hearing her story.

She respected Yulia from the bottom of her heart.

Yulia wiped away her tears and returned to her usual pleasant, joyful self. Her tone also became as clear as usual.

"You guys must be thinking I'm quite miserable, don't you? I actually think it's alright. After all, the hard days are over, and my father's death gave me a brighter future in return. I will continue to work hard in the future."

She would never let her parents' death be in vain; that was what Yulia had in mind.

After the dinner, Minerva's impression of Yulia changed. Before this, she had some prejudices against her, but it was all gone now.

She even felt that her prejudice against Yulia on Vera's behalf was a petty act. Based on Yulia's family upbringing, she would not seize another's love. If she knew Quill already had someone in his heart, she would walk away and not interfere.

She had such a proud father; she would not be an ill-mannered person, either.

When they left the hotel, Minerva asked Yulia, "What are you planning to do next? Do you have anywhere to go to? Although I know you do not want to accept other's help, it would be easier if you're able to receive some help in certain situations."

Yulia looked at her deeply and thanked her sincerely, "Minerva, thank you very much. I get what you're saying, but I plan on replaceing a job; start from the bottom. This was my father's wish; I don't want to disappoint him."

She made it clear.

Minerva smiled and said softly, "What your father hoped for is that you wouldn't beg others, but our families have such a good relationship; we can't be considered outsiders. Besides, you didn't ask; we want to help."

Yulia was stunned for a moment. She didn't seem to have thought of this method of dealing with things.

"What do you think? Do you think I have a point? Even if we help you in the shadows, you wouldn't know. That wouldn't be against your initial motive, would it?"

Yulia came forward and hugged Minerva as soon as she finished speaking.

"Minerva, you have a heart of gold, and I'm happy about that. However, I have already set my mind to start from the bottom. I have been under my father's protection for too long; I never knew about the cruelty and ugliness of reality. If it weren't for the incident back home, I would probably live a muddled life until I die."

"I didn't come to you guys for help but to fulfill my dream. I have wanted to come back for the longest time and meet up with some old friends. It was just that there were too many things I had to deal with, so I never got the chance. Now that I've met you and your brother, seeing that you guys are doing well, I can finally chase after the life I want in peace."

Hearing such generous words, Minerva was very touched. Her impression towards her elevated further.

She felt that no matter what, based on their family's relationship, Quill will probably help her. Whether Yulia would accept was another thing.

If she kept up with such an attitude, she probably wouldn't be close to Quill.

Beanie had been in a bad mood the entire car ride home; he kept his head down and didn't say anything. As for Jelly Bean, she was asleep; Maddox covered her with a blanket to prevent her from catching a cold.

Minerva noticed Beanie was not in high spirits and asked him, "What's the matter?"

Beanie shook his head.

по

"You are all grown up now and have secrets, don't you?" Minerva smiled softly and ruffled his head. She then leaned closer to him and asked, "Since you don't want to tell me, I'll take a guess then. Is it because Auntie Yulia is too good, so you're anxious and worried?"

Beanie was silent.

He glanced at Minerva, depressed.

He could never hide anything from his mommy.

"Humph." Beanie snorted angrily, "That's not true. Auntie Vera is the best. I like Auntie Vera the most."

Minerva said somewhat helplessly,

"Oh, you are indeed just a child. Your Uncle Quill and Auntie Vera are already together, what is there to worry about? Do you not have faith in Vera? Or are you not confident in your uncle?"

Beanie said without hesitation, "I have no confidence in Uncle Quill!"

Minerva was at a loss for words for a moment. "Honestly, you... If Vera heard what you said, she would definitely object. How dare you talk about her boyfriend like that?"

"Auntie Vera loves me the most. She would never do that to me."

"That might not be the case. When she has her own children, then..."

"Mommy! You're driving a wedge between my relationship with Auntie Vera!"

"Oh, you." Minerva ruffled Beanie's head while laughing, "You caught me. My child has all his attention on his Auntie Vera; can't I be a little jealous and do something about it?"

After some thought, Beanie went to hug Minerva's waist and nestled in her arms as he said, "Don't let Auntie Yulia meet Uncle Quill that often, okay? Besides, you are the person I'm closest to in this world."

After that, Beanie couldn't help but came even closer to Minerva. He tried all sorts of ways to seek for love and attention.

It was really something else when a boy sought love and attention.

Just when Minerva wanted to say something, Maddox dragged Beanie away by the collar, away from Minerva's embrace.

Beanie began to protest aggressively, "Bad Daddy, put me down now!"

Maddox said expressionlessly, "Stay away from my woman."

Beanie retorted, "No! She is my Mommy! The person I'm closest with!"

Maddox then looked at Minerva. He pursed his lips lightly and looked at Beanie, "We'll get you a wife when we get back; don't cling onto my woman in the future."

Minerva, who was by the side, was speechless.

Alas, Maddox and Beanie...

They continued to quarrel, and what they said afterward was just ridiculous.

Minerva simply pretended not to

hear anything. Beanie kept

complaining to her by her side, then Maddox would drag him away again. Beanie could only tug on Minerva's collar pitifully and said, "Daddy is bullying me. Mommy... Please help me."

Beanie's expression was very pitiful; it was as if he was bullied badly. Minerva's heart softened with one glance. She glared at Maddox and said, "Stop, he is just a child. Why do you want to argue with your child?"
