Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 639

She was testing him, but when Maddox admitted it so quickly, Minerva's breathing stopped. However, her heart suddenly began to palpitate.

"Another?" She pouted and asked.

"Who is it?"

"You don't know her," Maddox thought for a moment. Since he brought it up, he might as well be honest with her.

"I don't know her either."

Minerva said, "You don't know? Then how did you..." She realized that she was having trouble breathing. As Beanie grew older, he looked more and more like Maddox. She had her suspicions but did not dare to admit it.

She always felt that this thought and what happened that night was preposterous.

Moreover, it had been too long, so she barely remembered what happened on that rainy night. Everything happened so quickly. She had been in a state of confusion, and after it was over, she just ran away in a panic.

Now that he personally admitted it, Minerva felt her heart beating so hard that it was about to jump out from her body. Her guesses were one thing, but hearing him admit it was another. Minerva bit her lower lip.

"I was drugged that night," Maddox held her tightly. "But after her, you were the only other woman I've been with and the only one I'll ever be with."

"Wait." She interrupted him. "You said that you were drugged that night? Does that mean that you couldn't control yourself and made an advance on that girl? That no matter who it was, you would have done the same?"

Maddox fell silent. How was he supposed to answer this question? He didn't know if his ears were playing tricks on him, but he felt that Minerva was asking a trick question.

If he said yes, then Minerva would think he was promiscuous and slept with any woman. However, if he said no, then she would ask him whether he had feelings for that woman. No matter which one it was, he could not answer.

"Why aren't you speaking?" She asked curiously when she saw he remained silent the entire time.

What she was thinking was exactly what Maddox thought of earlier.

Women were such strange creatures. She did not know if other women were like this, but that was how she was.

Just as Maddox was in a dilemma, trying not to offend her, an announcement was made over the sound system, indicating that they were about to board the flight.

At that moment, he felt as if he was liberated. He wrapped his arms around her waist and stood up.

"We should go."

She looked around and saw everyone standing up and getting ready to leave. She did not say anything else and could only follow Maddox out.

He bought business class tickets, so there weren't that many people around. After taking her seat, Minerva saw how empty the cabin was. She remembered that he did not answer her question earlier, so she said softly, "You haven't answered my question yet."

It was tense, but she felt that he was about to give her his answer soon. She wanted to get more details for affirmation.

However... She was interrupted.

Minerva was secretly unhappy. She would definitely not let this matter go.

Maddox frowned as his head throbbed. He didn't expect her to harp on it. He leaned over and closed his eyes as he said, "We are on the plane. Take a break and I'll tell you more when we arrive at the hotel at night."

Minerva wanted to say that she couldn't, but she saw the dark circles around his eyes when she looked at him. She remembered that he hadn't slept for forty-eight hours. He was supposed to rest after flying back that day.

However, because of what she said, he had to bring her to the airport so he hadn't had time to rest.

He must be exhausted.

The words on the tip of her lips vanished. Minerva did not say anything else. Instead, she allowed him to rest on her shoulder.

He must be drained after not sleeping for two days.

She would feel uncomfortable if she went on without sleep for a day.

Gradually, she heard his breathing relaxing, and from time to time, she could feel his warm breath on her neck. She turned her head and looked out of the window at the vast airport.

She felt like everything was a dream, and that nothing was real.

Minerva stretched out her hand and pinched her cheek. It didn't hurt.

She exerted more strength and the pain made her gasp in cold air.

"Isn't this a dream?"

"Is it real?"

It was not easy for her to come so far with Maddox.

Then what should she do next? What would happen after she went abroad? She felt uneasy as she thought about Monica.

Typically, people would feel woozy as the plane took off. Maddox, who was sleeping, suddenly reached out his hand and grabbed her.

Minerva was shocked. She turned her head, only to discover that he was still asleep and he had moved unconsciously.

She was stunned for a few seconds before she squeezed his hand. Even though he was asleep, he was still gripping her hand tightly. He knitted his eyebrows together tightly as he suddenly called out her

name.

She was stunned on the spot.

Meanwhile, after receiving a call from Minerva, Vera was on her way to send Beanie home.

On the way home, he looked at Vera curiously.

"Aunt Vera, why didn't my mommy pick me up?"

"Your mommy is busy with work again so she couldn't pick you up."

"Weren't we supposed to stay at my uncle's house? But Mommy promised me that she wouldn't send me away again."

He felt a little aggrieved. He made a deal with Minerva, but at such an important moment, his mother wanted to send him away again.

"No," Vera waved her hand and denied his idea, "This time, we don't have to go to your uncle's house. You can just come home with me. Your mommy is on a business trip. Even if she wasn't, we don't have to go to your uncle's."

From her words, Beanie sensed that something was off.

"Aunt Vera, did you quarrel with my uncle?"

"No! Why would I? He doesn't care about me anyway, so why would he argue with me?"

Recalling what happened that night, the rims of Vera's eyes turned red again and she felt extremely wronged.

It was the first time that she pursued a man. She felt that she had given up her dignity and ego for Quill, but in turn, he looked down on her.

Quill must have thought that she was cheap, running around seducing men.

She took a deep breath and tried to suppress her anger, "Don't act out, don't act out!"

"Auntie Vera, do you really like him?" Beanie suddenly asked.

At this moment the elevator arrived. Vera held his hand into the elevator and replied.

"Children shouldn't butt their noses into adults' matters. My feelings for your uncle are real, but you can't force it to happen. So, I decided..."

"Auntie Vera, are you going to give up on pursuing my uncle?"

Hearing this, she was stunned. "Give up?"

Did she really want to give up?
