Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1317

Quill didn't move either because it seemed that he hadn't been this relaxed for a long time.

The previous night, he had only held her in his arms and managed to relax almost immediately, and then fell asleep.

To his surprise, it was already daylight when he woke up.

He laid on the bed as he eyed Vera's room. It was completely different from his place.

There was no extra color in this room, and the design was minimalistic; it looked lifeless. Although many people liked the style, after a long time, it would feel spiritless.

Seeing Vera's room all of a sudden, Quill found it novel and full of vitality.

It was as if colors filled a black and white world; vitality filled a piece of dry land.

He laid quietly on the bed.

Outside the door, Vera contemplated if she should go in and wake Quill up.

It was time for him to go to work, but she was worried Quill did not sleep well after drinking the previous night. So if she woke him up too early, he would have a headache. Maybe she should let him sleep a little longer.

After making up her mind, Vera went back to the guest room.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she sat down, Mabie's voice rang, "Vera, get up."

Accompanied by the loud voice, there was a loud knock on the door.

Vera's face changed slightly. She suddenly stood up from the bed and rushed out. She saw Mabie slamming the door and calling out in front of her room.

When Mabie saw Vera standing in front of her, she was quite surprised. "Huh? You're up? Where have you been?"

Vera wanted to roll her eyes. "Mom..."

Seeing she looked embarrassed, Mabie was taken aback. Then, she suddenly thought of something and looked into the room.

Because the first thing Mabie usually did when she woke up was to wake her daughter up, and because Vera would always stay in bed for a long time, this had become a habit.

Therefore, Mabie forgot Quill stayed in Vera's room the night before and knocked on the door without thinking twice. It was only then she

realized.

Soon, Mabie withdrew her hand and smiled awkwardly at Vera. She walked forward and pushed Vera back into the guest room.

"I didn't do it on purpose. I'm used to waking you up, so I forgot Quill slept in your room last night."

While they were talking, Quill also got out of bed following Mabie's loud voice. He opened the door and noticed there was no one, so he raised his eyebrows.

On the other side, Vera and Mabie also finished talking. After coming out, Mabie stiffly explained, "Quill, you awake? I forgot you were resting in Vera's room last night. Did I wake you up? I'm so sorry!" "I'm fine. I happened to be awake. Good morning, Mrs. Zais."

"Morning. You two can talk. I'll make breakfast."

"Thank you."

As Mabie went to the kitchen, she thought her daughter's boyfriend was well-mannered; he spoke respectfully to his elders.

Vera pulled Quill into the room, then gave him a new toothbrush and cup from her storage cabinet. "You go wash up first. Are you still feeling unwell?"

Quill ruffled her hair and said, "No, I slept very

well."

Hearing this, Vera breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good."

After breakfast, Quill drove back to the company.

His car was parked downstairs the entire night. After he left, the neighbors ran to Mabie and Vera and started gossiping.

"Mabie, who's the man who drove away? He looks so tall and handsome. Is he Vera's boyfriend?"

"I don't remember you having such a relative. He must be Vera's boyfriend. The boyfriend Amelia introduced some time ago was so bad. This one looks like a catch." "That's right. How did Vera replace such a rich boyfriend?"

These people couldn't stop talking. Being surrounded, Mabie and Vera only felt annoyed hearing their speculations.

However, Mabie still admitted, "Yes, he is Vera's boyfriend, but it doesn't matter if he is rich or poor. What is important is that he is upright and nice to Vera."

"Yes, you're right. The main thing is

character. But Vera's boyfriend is indeed wealthy. What car is he driving?" Where does he work? What's his educational background? Are his parents alive? It's better to replace a man whose parents have already passed away. Then, you wouldn't be bullied after you marry into his family."

Vera was speechless.

Although Quill's parents had passed away long ago, she felt extremely unhappy hearing these words.

Before she lost her temper, Mabie frowned as she glared at that person and said, "How can you speak like this? It's all up to fate."

"Oh, Mabie, I'm not wrong. If Vera replaces a rich family whose parents are still alive, she will definitely suffer if she marries him. I heard these mothers-in-law of these rich families are all-powerful. They are not to be trifled with!"

"Vera's so honest. She will be bullied if she marries him in the future, won't she?"

Truth be told, some people bore no ill will, but their words were harsh. They liked to say things others didn't like to hear. Like this instance, she and Quill weren't married yet, but they were already talking about whether his parents were alive.

This upset Vera very much. She didn't like others talking about her man behind his back, no matter what they said.

So she interrupted.

"Madam Lowell, you don't have to

worry about my love life. If you are free, you should help your daughter-in-law take care of her children. She's quite tired, having to take care of the house and work every day. To be honest, if every mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can do what they're supposed to and not meddle in businesses they're not supposed to, they wouldn't quarrel."

Everyone fell silent.

"How can you say like that? We're just concerned about your marriage. Why are you losing your temper?"

Vera said with a faint smile, "You guys don't need to worry about it. You should go back."

After that, Vera took Mabie's hand and walked back, and a group of people scolded behind her, "How impressive. The daughter of the Zais family has found a rich boyfriend; she even speaks proudly now." "That's right. She wasn't like this before. Now... A person really changes as soon as she becomes rich!"

Mabie glanced helplessly at her daughter.

"Why are you so angry?"

Vera pouted and felt a little depressed. She said, "Quill's parents passed away a long time ago."
