Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1368

So they ended up leaving the town after only staying in the hotel for one night.

It was just that they didn't take the train this time around but a flight.

When Quill was booking the flight ticket, Vera was leaning against his arm, looking at it. Suddenly, she asked, "Why did you choose to book a flight? Is it because you replace traveling on the train a pain in the a*s?"

Hearing that, Quill paused for a second before he looked at her, "Do you want to take a train? I don't mind."

"No, no." Vera shook her head hard and said, "The plane it is. The train is too hectic."

If she bumped into another woman like Dahlia, it would be exasperating.

"Are you sure?"

"Yep!"

Thus, Quill booked two flight tickets scheduled to fly that night.

When they boarded the plane, Vera looked embarrassed. "Um, I told my parents I left for a breath of fresh air. But it has barely even been a few days. Will it be too..."

Quill fastened her seatbelt for her as he said, "Just tell them the truth."

"The truth? No way... That'd be weird."

"Weird? What's so weird about it? I'll go with you; I'll explain."

"No, no way!"

It would be weirder if he went home with her. Thus, Vera shook her head and said sullenly, "I'll just go back myself."

Then, she asked, "When will we land?"

"Midnight."

At midnight? Vera thought she would disturb her parents if she went home at that time.

"Why don't we go to my place first, hmm? You can go home and explain tomorrow."

"Yeah, okay."

Although they had reconciled, Vera still felt rather awkward because of what had happened. In short, their relationship wasn't as close as before their argument. Thus, they kept quiet when there was nothing to talk about.

After the plane took off, the lights were turned off.

Quill held her hand and comforted her, "Don't

worry."

His words made her feel inexplicably at ease. After that, she stopped worrying and spaced out.

Nash was waiting for them at the airport. After sending them to Quill's private villa, he left.

Quill carried Vera's suitcase while she followed him. While walking, she suddenly sneezed.

"Achoo!"

"Achoo!"

One sneeze came after the other. Confused, Vera wondered what was going on.

She rubbed her itchy nose and said, "Am I catching a cold?"

Stumped, Quill turned to look at her and asked, "Could it be because of me?"

Vera asked in astonishment, "You've caught a cold?"

"A little. I got caught in the rain that night."

However, he had always been able to recover quickly. But perhaps not entirely this time. What was worse, they had been quite intimate for the past couple of days. It was possible he had really infected her.

Vera's heartached when she heard that he had caught a cold. She held his arm and asked, "Are you feeling better now?" "Would I have traveled this far with you if I wasn't?"Quill said as he tapped her nose dotingly.

"Have I really caught a cold from you?"

"Take some cold medicine just in case."

Vera nodded as she took it lightly. It wasn't until Quill brought her the tablet and water that she remembered she was pregnant.

That was right, she was pregnant, and she had to be aware of what medicine she took.

With the thought in mind, Vera immediately said, "I-I'm not taking it."

"Hmm?" Quill thought she was afraid of swallowing pills, so he cajoled her with a gentle voice, "It's just one pill. It's not bitter. Just drink some water and it'll go down."

"No, I don't want to," Vera climbed into bed and hid under the quilt, "I just sneezed a few times; maybe it's not a cold. I don't want to take it."

Quill was dumbfounded.

She didn't have a problem with it earlier; why had she suddenly changed her mind?

Vera hid under the quilt, feeling depressed.

Initially, she had planned to surprise Quill with her pregnancy on his birthday, yet so many things happened after that. Even though they had reconciled, it would be too abrupt if she told him now. She thought she should wait for some other day.

However, Quill didn't know about her condition and continued to persuade her to take the medicine. In the end, seeing that she wouldn't give in no matter what, he only asked her to drink more water and tucked her in.

After saying good night to him, Vera soon fell asleep.

Listening to her steady breathing, Quill felt rather helpless and speechless as he noticed she had been sleeping more than usual.

She had been doing nothing but sleep for the past few days.

Yulia actually saw Jennifer chasing after Vera, so she couldn't help stalking them. Then she saw the mysterious look on Jennifer's face followed by the change in Vera's expression. She figured Jennifer probably had told Vera she was Quill's fiancee.

She had never thought of telling Vera about it. But if someone wanted to tell Vera, then that was none of her business.

Then, under the influence of her greed, Yulia sent the text to Vera.

However, she felt somewhat regretful after sending it. She was well aware of what the text meant. If she was the recipient, she'd definitely overthink.

Yet, Yulia didn't want to explain it at all.

She wanted to be selfish for once.

She had nothing left. After losing her family business and her parents, she came back to replace Quill. At that time, she thought he was all she had left. But... She even lost Quill in the end.

She truly had nothing now, so why should she be kind to others?

When Yulia went to work the next day, she found out Quill hadn't gone to the company. The employees were whispering here and there; there was even a rumor that President Hanover had broken up

vefnet

with his girlfriend.

The only person who would spread such a rumor would be none other than Jennifer.

So when someone asked her, Yulia said coldly, as if none of it had to do with her, "How would I know if they'd broken up or not? It's better not to talk about these things during work hours."

As she left, she heard her colleague's voice behind

her.

"Tsk, is there a need for her to pretend? She must be elated now that they've broken up. Isn't President Hanover the reason she came to the company?"

"Yeah, if she doesn't like President Hanover, why does she insist on working here?"

"Quit it. She's the president's fiancee in the first place. That mistress is just a fling. Alas, the fiancee will always be the fiancee."

Yulia snorted, somewhat self-deprecated. As the gossip traveled, she nearly took herself as the true fiancee while Vera was actually a mistress. However, that was not the truth.
