Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1369

Although they were engaged, Quill had never expressed his love for Yulia, even once. He had always been indifferent to her; if anything, just slightly better than other people. But merely slightly. They did not have any kind of special relationship, not even kinship.

"If... They've really broken up, then... She would stand a chance, wouldn't she?

Minerva happened to be free that day, so leaving Maddox aside, she went to the Hanover Corporation with Jelly Bean.

On her way to Quill's office, she noticed someone familiar.

Doubtful, she quickly followed that person.

She ended up at one of the departments and watched as Yulia sat at her table.

Seeing that, Minerva narrowed her eyes, rather surprised.

What was going on?

As she stared, Jelly Bean started making noise and moving around in her arms, so she could only coax her.

When she looked up again, Yulia had noticed

Minerva too.

Seeing her, Yulia was also a little surprised, but she managed to compose herself in a flash and walked to Minerva with a smile.

"Minerva," Yulia took the initiative to greet her.

Minerva could not be mean to someone who showed her respect.

Thus, she also put on a faint smile but did not greet her.

Yulia could sense something from her expression, so her smile faded a little as well. "Are you looking for Quill? He hasn't been at the company for the last two days." He wasn't in the company?

Wasn't her brother a workaholic? Why would he be absent?

Has something happened?

"I know you have a lot of questions, but this is not the place to talk. Why don't we go somewhere else?" Yulia suggested.

Minerva nodded and said, "Okay."

She did have a lot of questions for her, but she didn't expect Yulia to be so upfront.

Minerva led them to a waiting room.

When Juliette saw them, she didn't say anything but only made some coffee for them before leaving.

Thus, Yulia and Minerva were the only ones in the room. Oh, and Jelly Bean as well.

But Jelly Bean had always been well-behaved. Like this instance, she was sleeping soundly in Minerva's arms as her hands wrapped into two little fists.

Yulia looked at Jelly Bean and said enviously, "This is your daughter, isn't it? How adorable."

"Yes," Minerva nodded and replied, "This is Jelly Bean."

"You have a son, a daughter, and everything else. You sure are winning at life."

Minerva felt that Yulia had other implications behind her words. Therefore, she did not answer but quietly waited for Yulia to continue.

Sure enough, Minerva was right. Initially, Yulia had a smile on her face in the beginning, but then the smile gradually faded. "You are surprised to see me here, aren't you?" Minerva still didn't reply but continued to look at her in silence.

"You think I haven't given up, so I came here to try my luck and try to ruin Quill's relationship with his girlfriend, aren't you?"

Minerva did not expect Yulia would speak so bluntly. Stumped, she wanted to say something, but Yulia beat her to it. "If you were me, would you be willing to give up just like

this? Are you willing to let net

people have the person you have crushed on since you were a child? I know you don't have this kind of experience, and you may not be able to understand me, but I didn't come to Hanover Corporation out of my will. I want to be as far away from him as possible too, but..."

At that, Yulia paused and lowered her eyes, dispirited. "I can't help wanting to be close to him. When I had nothing, he was all I had, but as reality has it, I've lost him too. How can I accept this?" Seeing that she was pouring her heart out, Minerva didn't interrupt her.

"I don't want to do this either. After all, he already has a girlfriend. If I continue to be infatuated with him, I'd be exceptionally wicked. But Minerva, I'm the one who's engaged to him. Besides, I hadn't done anything from the moment I worked here. I've merely painstakingly watched him be with his girlfriend."

Minerva finally spoke.

"I know you can't accept it for now, but the world is unpredictable. Even if the engagement you spoke of is true, there had never been anything between you two. So listen to me, let it go. If you're facing any difficulties, I can help you. You'll only sink deeper if you continue to stay here.

Nothing good will come out of this."

At that, Minerva looked directly at Yulia, "You may have nothing now, but if you're willing, a new life awaits you; your future is limitless. Why do you want to restrict yourself in such a situation for a man?" Her words opened up Yulia's heart.

Yulia slowly raised her head and

looked at Minerva's face. With a faint smile, she said, "You sure are smart and eloquent; gentle as well. You're exactly like Mrs. Hanover. What you said struck a chord with me. If want to, I can start over But do you know how much courage it

takes to do that? I'm fearful worried he's no longer within my vision. I just want things to be the way it is now. I just want to see him from the sidelines; know whatever's going on with him, even if it's about his significant other. That way, my life wouldn't be that lifeless."

"Even if you replace out he's married or has children?"

Hearing that, Yulia turned grim. She subconsciously grasped the hem of her skirt as she bit her lower lip.

Minerva chuckled and said, "See, you already can't take it when we're merely discussing it now. So why do you insist on staying? You need a restart; only then can you leave this all behind." Yulia suddenly raised her head, resentment in her heart.

"You've separated from Maddox before, haven't you? If he fell in love with another woman after his memory loss, would you give up?"

Taken aback, she did not expect Yulia to mention Maddox.

"You won't. Because he's the only one you've ever loved, so it's impossible you'd give up on him. But now, you're asking me to give up. Why didn't you give up then?"

Was she trying to draw inferences about other cases from one instance?

Minerva looked at Yulia in silence for a long time. Suddenly, her lips curled into a smile.

"You're wrong."

"What?"

"I don't need to give up. I know Maddox loves me. We are in love with each other. He had just forgotten about me, but not that he doesn't love me, so there's no reason for me to give up. If he falls in love with another woman knowingly someday, then I wouldn't linger."
