Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1350

"Knock it off!"

Being scolded, the staff member stuck their tongue out and said, "It's not like I've said anything wrong."

"Miss Zais?"

Vera snapped back to her senses. Looking at the exquisitely decorated room and the gift she had prepared, she grabbed it and left after some thought.

"Thank you for all your hard work, but I'm afraid we won't be coming back. I have to go see how he's doing."

"Sure, Miss Zais, go ahead. Be sure to clear things out between you two."

"Thank you."

After Vera left, the gabby staff member couldn't help expressing their views again.

"I'm sure it's her aggressiveness that led to her boyfriend's detestation. See what happens when women don't value themselves? If you guys ever got yourself a boyfriend, don't be like her."

An older staff member gave her a side-eye as she said, "Only youngsters like you will think of replaceing a boyfriend who simp over you. What, are you born into money, or are you worshipped at the altar? Do people have to hold you dearly forever?"

C'mon, don't say that. If he doesn't do that before marriage, then won't it be worse after marriage?"

"Yeah, right. What matters in love is equality. You can say all this so confidently only because you haven't met the person you like. When you do, try saying this again."

Vera did not hear their comments, nor did she want to.

After she left the restaurant, she began to search for Quill. However, he was nowhere to be found. Thus, she went to the parking lot, and as expected, his car was no longer there.

Extremely anxious, she tried calling Quill. But as luck would have it, her phone was dead.

She had been so preoccupied with the preparations she had forgotten to charge her phone.

She didn't know what was going on, and she had no idea where Quill had gone. After some thought, Vera finally hailed a taxi and went to the Hanover Corporation first.

When she arrived, she immediately went to his floor. However, instead of Quill, she bumped into Juliette, who was working overtime.

Perplexed, Juliette asked Vera, "Vera, hadn't you left with President Hanover? Why did you come back?"

She hadn't got to the bottom of the issue yet, so Vera did not intend to let Juliette in on it. "My phone is dead, and I can't replace him. Did he come back?"

Although Vera didn't answer her directly, Juliette was smart enough to know something was amiss from Vera's expression. She shook her head and said, "He didn't come back. Did something happen between you two?"

Vera didn't expect Juliette to catch on so quickly. She sighed and replied, "I don't know. That's why I need to look for him and figure it out."

"You said your phone is dead? Let me give him a call then."

"Oh, right, thank you! Sorry for troubling you, Secretary Sharpio."

Juliette then gave Quill a call.

However, his line was busy. Her calls couldn't get through no matter what.

After several consecutive failed calls, Juliette lowered her phone and looked at Vera, her face serious.

"What exactly happened? How could this be? Did he go missing or something? Do we need to call

the police?"

Call the police?

Vera thought there was no need for that, so she shook her head and said, "It should be my fault. There is no need to call the police. I guess he probably doesn't want to see me now." Hearing that, Juliette was even more confused. "What exactly happened?"

"Nothing. Since he's not here, I'll look for him somewhere else."

There were only a few places Quill would normally go to, and Vera happened to know all of them. She planned to look for him in the Hanover Villa first, then his private villa.

Juliette couldn't press on when Vera didn't want to tell her more. So she merely watched her leave with something in her arms, a little distressed.

It took a great deal for them to finally be together. Although they had a sweet relationship, she had no idea what was going on.

However, this wasn't something she should go into detail about. Therefore, Juliette went back to her business.

Vera went downstairs with a heavy heart and a messy mind. She even bumped into Yulia on her way out.

As most employees in the Hanover Company were working overtime, Yulia was rather surprised to see Vera come back. She knew she shouldn't go to her now, but she couldn't help walking to Vera, greeting her.

"Vera, why are you still here?"

Vera was a little touched when she saw Yulia as she was Quill's childhood friend. Maybe if she asked her, she would know something.

Thinking of this, Vera quickly walked to her.

"Yulia, you and Quill grew up together, didn't you?"

Hearing that, Yulia was taken aback. Why would she suddenly ask her that? Did someone tell her something? However, Yulia managed to compose herself quickly and nodded with a smile. "Yeah, we grew up together because our families were close. Why?"

"There's something I can't figure out. I remember you grew up with him, so... I thought you'd know the answer."

Noticing the look in Vera's eyes and recalling the date, Yulia had a hunch at her question. However, she still patiently waited for it.

Sure enough, it was as she predicted.

"I was celebrating his birthday with him earlier, but... he doesn't seem too happy. Then he left, but

I can't replace him anywhere."

Although Yulia was mentally

prepared, she still couldn't control

her excitement hearing Vera's words. She thought she had cured him of his habit of celebrating his birthdays, but it turned out

In other words, their relationship wasn't as intimate as she thought.

At least Vera did not know much about Quill's past, and he was not ready to tell her. Thus leading to the current situation.

With that thought, Yulia put on a shocked expression.

"You've never celebrated his birthday before?"

"Huh?" Baffled, Vera mumbled, "In the past? No..."

This was Quill's first birthday since they started dating. In the past, Vera dared not even think of doing so.

Yulia's expression suddenly became

grim. "How could this be? I was quite shocked when you said you were going to Celebrate his birthday that day. In fact, Quill never celebrates his birthdays. But you were telling meso justifiably, so I thought you fixed his habit."

"What?" Hearing this, Vera instantly grew grim.

"He never celebrates his birthdays? What?"

Quill had never celebrated his birthday? This was news to Vera. He never told her that, nor did anyone close to him, and she never took the initiative to learn about it.
