Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1310

"You brat, I ask you so much because I care about you. What are you talking about?" Mabie said.

Vera stuck out her tongue, glanced at the customer flow in the restaurant, and asked, "Today's business seems to be manageable. Why don't I go back first?" "Yeah, go ahead."

After getting Mabie's consent, Vera quickly packed up and went home.

Meanwhile, Ernest was sitting on the sofa and talking casually with Quill in the president's office at the Hanover Corporation.

However, he was basically jesting. Quill had to work, yet Ernest kept talking, interrupting his thoughts.

Twice later, Quill raised his head and looked at him with an unfriendly gaze.

Ernest immediately smiled and said, "Don't mind me. Do what you have to do. I'll just talk."

Quill was speechless.

How could he still work when he was talking, disturbing his thoughts?

Ernest seldom came to his office unless he had something important to tell him. Thinking about this, Quill put down the pen in his hand and leaned back on the chair. He stared at Ernest coldly. "Why did you suddenly come here?"

His fingertips tapped against the surface of the table in an extremely casual manner.

Seeing that, Ernest raised his eyebrows and said, "What, we have been friends for so many years. Can't I even come to your company to see you? Is only Vera allowed to?" Quill didn't reply.

He pinched the space between his eyebrows and said impatiently, "Why in the world are you here? Don't beat around the bush; I still have work to do."

"Tsk, you... When you didn't have a girlfriend, all you did was work. Now that you have one, you're still a workaholic. Can't you be more concerned about your girlfriend?" Ernest said. If he had paid more attention, he probably would've noticed something, and Vera needn't sneak to the drug store to buy the pregnancy test kit.

Yet he regarded her as his sister, and she asked him to keep it a secret.

Ernest could do that, but he couldn't stop himself from not saying anything.

He kept feeling that he was losing out if he didn't say this big secret, so Ernest felt he had to say something. But he'd promised Vera to keep it a secret, so he could only hint at Quill. After all, this was a matter between the two of them. Wouldn't Vera suffer a loss if she kept quiet about it and Quill was kept in the dark the entire time?

Besides... it would have been easy if it was that straightforward. However, he saw Yulia in the company that day.

Yulia...

She was Quill's childhood sweetheart; she must still mean something to Quill. It would've been fine if she didn't do anything, but if....

If...

Ernest did not dare to imagine what would happen next, and he did not want to imagine his old friend as such a despicable person.

"I have a lot of work in the company, but that doesn't mean I don't care about her. You, on the other hand... why are you suddenly concerned about this?"

Quill looked at him inquisitively.

Ernest smiled and said, "I had

nothing to do today, so I went to the

pasta restaurant. Business is

booming, Vera sure has a lot on her

plate. I'm sure she must be tired from all the workload, yet her boyfriend wouldn't think to help her out. Say, Quill, if it weren't for the fact Vera likes you, she would really break up with you seeing the way you act as her boyfriend."

Quill paused when he heard Ernest's words. He imagined her running around in the restaurant. Not only that, she even often came to the company to bring him food while he wasn't aware of it because of his busy schedule.

Hearing Ernest's words, Quill also felt that he did not seem to have done a good job as a boyfriend.

Although he had tried his best to do what a boyfriend should, he really didn't know what to do most of the time as he had never been in a relationship.

"What? Did I hit the nail on the head? You don't know what to say, do you?"

Quill regained his senses and pursed his lips. After that, he said, "I've never been anyone's boyfriend before, so I'm not sure."

After that, he pondered for a while before closing his laptop.

Ernest looked at his movements and raised his eyebrows. "What are you doing?"

Quill had already gotten up, picked up his coat, and put it on. He also took his car keys. "What do you think?" "Don't tell me you're going to look for her now?!" Ernest asked in surprise. He didn't expect that Quill would actually take his words seriously. However, since he had regarded Vera as his sister, he had to say something for her sake.

Indeed, Quill had not shown enough care to Vera in their relationship.

If he cared enough, with his intelligence, he could definitely tell what was unusual about Vera at the moment.

But he didn't expect Quill would go to her right after he made one comment. Ernest had just left, and Quill was already going to look for her.

He wondered if Vera would confess in her panic.

If that was the case, then it would be interesting...

"All right, go to her if you want to. You are her boyfriend anyway; you can go to her whenever you want."

Quill went out without saying

anything else to him. Before he left,

Ernest looked at his back and

wanted to say something, thinking

about whether he should tell him about Yulia working at the company, but Quill had already gone.

As a result, he could only swallow back his words.

So be it. Since Yulia didn't want Quill to know, why should he do something superfluous? Moreover, it might be better not to let him know right now.

As soon as Vera got home and had sneakily wanted to take out the pregnancy test kit to use in the bathroom, she received a phone call from Mabie. "Vivy, have you reached home?"

"Yes, Mom. What's the matter?"

What was going on? Why was she so unlucky? She'd only wanted to test her pregnancy. Why would someone interrupt her every time?

"Your boyfriend has come for you at the restaurant," Mabie said.

Vera was shocked, "What?"

Vera thought she had misheard. Why would Quill suddenly go to her restaurant? What did he go there for?

"I said your boyfriend came for you. Didn't you hear clearly? Why are you so absent-minded today? Are you really that unwell? Why don't I get your boyfriend to take you to the hospital?" Hearing Mabie's suggestion, Vera freaked out. She immediately refused. "Of course not. L- Let him wait for me in the restaurant. I'll go to him!"

After that, Vera hung up the phone, put the stuff back into her bag, and hurried out.
