Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 674

"Good morning, teacher," Beanie greeted his teachers after getting out of the car. When he saw the schoolbag in his teacher's hand, he looked up and asked, "Teacher, did my mommy bring my school bag?" The teacher was absent-minded because of Maddox's sudden appearance. The teacher came to her senses after a while and nodded.

"Yes, your mommy just handed your bag to me moments ago. She said someone would send you over here shortly after. Is this... your daddy?"

It was no surprise that the teacher would ask. The two of them looked too similar.

Upon hearing this, Beanie turned his head and glanced at Maddox, who had just gotten out of the car. He recalled what Minerva had said to him the night before and was obviously still mad. However, Beanie was in public. He didn't want to make things difficult for him, so he nodded.

The teachers were taken aback. Everyone was trying to guess who Beanie's father was as they had never seen him before. Now, they obviously saw him and he was gorgeous.

"I'll pick you up by noon?" Maddox ignored the group of people. He walked up to him and squatted down. Then, he rested his palm on Beanie's head and asked.

Beanie thought about it and shook his head.

"We have lunch in school at noon."

Maddox thought about it and nodded, "Alright, I'll come and pick you up tonight."

It was only then did Beanie nod.

"Move along," Maddox patted him on the back.

Just then, a surprised voice sounded from the side.

"I-Isn't that Young Master Yardley?"

Upon hearing this, Maddox and Beanie raised their heads at the same time. They saw a middle-aged man with glasses named Bowen standing in front of them. Bowen rubbed his hands nervously when he saw Maddox. Then, he stared at Maddox and his eyes widened in surprise.

"Mr. Yardley, is this your... son?"

Maddox sized him up. He had no recollection of this person. However, he could not be too indifferent in front of his son. Therefore, he could only nod and reply politely.

Rumor had it that Maddox Yardley from the Yardley Corporation was arrogant and conceited. However, he actually greeted him. Bowen suddenly became excited, thinking that he was not as hard to get along with as he was rumored to be.

He was elated as he reached out his hand to Maddox.

"Hello, Mr. Yardley. I'm the manager of Lowell Real Estate. My name is..."

Maddox furrowed his brows impatiently. What was this person trying to do? He patted Beanie's bag as the man was halfway speaking.

"Hurry up and go to class. Don't just stand here blankly."

Beanie blinked and looked at him. Suddenly, he looked up at the stuttering Bowen and asked, "Why is he so afraid of you?"

As soon as he asked this question, Maddox's body stiffened.

"Is it because you're terrifying?" The little boy blinked his eyes with an innocent look on his face. In actual fact, he was mischievous.

He just met his son, and his son didn't have a great first impression of him. If Beanie realized that he was not someone easy to get along with, Beanie would definitely have an even worse impression of him. Tons of thoughts filled his mind, and the smile on his lips froze. He said, "How could that be? I'm a good person and definitely not terrifying."

After that, he raised his head and glanced at Bowen, who was standing next to him. He slightly gaped his lips and said, "Pardon me, what's your name?"

It took Bowen a little time before he reacted. He quickly grabbed his hand and answered, "I am Bowen, the Lowell Real Estate manager, and I have always admired you. I hope we can partner with your company if the opportunity arises..."

As he spoke, Bowen took this opportunity to quickly take his business card and hand it over to Maddox.

"Here is my business card."

His fingers were trembling as he handed over his name card with a flattering smile on his face. He was afraid that he would be embarrassed if Maddox did not accept his card.

For some reason, everyone around them started to get nervous as well.

Beanie kept his head up as he stared at Maddox. Even though he was a neat freak, he had no choice but to stand up and take the name card from Bowen's hand under his son's innocent gaze. Bowen's body trembled even more as Maddox accepted his name card. He was so excited that his eyes turned red. To show how personable he was, Maddox even handed over his business card to him.

"This is mine."

When the man took the business card, he was so dumbfounded that he didn't know how to react.

"Thank you... I will cherish this business card. By the way... Can I shake hands with you?"

At this point, Bowen once again reached out his hand and looked at Maddox expectantly.

Shaking hands with a stranger was a challenge for a neat freak like Maddox. The veins on his forehead twitched as he glanced at the man with a warning look.

Unfortunately, the man was too excited to notice his look.

Maddox glanced at Beanie, who was still looking at him.

Helplessly, Maddox curled his lips. Then, he reached out and shook hands with the man.

Bowen became more excited. He retracted his hand back. The look on his face and his behavior told everyone that he was never going to wash his hands ever again.

"Be good. I'm very easy-going, Beanie. You don't have to be afraid of me. Head to class."

Maddox felt uneasy after shaking hands with a stranger.

Beanie felt that it was hilarious to see the uneasy look on Maddox's face. He nodded and said, "Alright."

He turned around and entered the school. He waved at Maddox and said goodbye.

Maddox heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Beanie disappearing from his sight. Then, he turned around to take a look at the man who was in his own world. After this, he walked forward, expressionless. Maddox felt uncomfortable because he shook hands with a stranger. When he returned to the car, he took out the handkerchief from the driver's seat angrily and wiped his hands thoroughly.

After cleaning his hands, he threw the handkerchief into the trash can next to him.

After a while, he leaned back in his seat and shut his eyes helplessly.

It was not easy to handle Beanie.

"When will he call me 'Daddy'?"

Maddox pursed his thin lips and then opened his eyes again.

Minerva came to school so early to hand over the bag but she didn't stay and wait for them. Was she afraid to bump into him?

Why didn't she dare to meet him? Was she afraid that he would question her again? Or was she guilty and felt that she blundered, so she didn't dare to confront him?

At the thought of this, Maddox straightened his tie, feeling a little depressed.

Because no matter what the reason was, he felt a little irritated.

After a long while, the car parked in front of the school gate slowly left. A group of female teachers couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"Is that Beanie's father? He's so handsome."

"He's very handsome, but he looks familiar. I think I've seen him somewhere before..."
