Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 999

Baldrick gave her a warm smile.

He began to explain in a soft voice, "Master Collins said that a child should never be separated from their parents. Since you are leaving soon, Beanie should spend more time with you. Moreover, Master Collins isn't an unreasonable person. He was able to spend the New Year with his great-grandson and he was truly happy about that, therefore..."

Speaking of this, Baldrick's words stopped, and then he looked at Beanie.

Minerva could sense the hint and she pinched Beanie on his cheeks.

"Beanie, go take a shower then wait for me in the room, alright? Your suitcase is in your daddy's room."

"Okay, Mommy. I will go take a shower first."

After dismissing Beanie, Minerva asked, "Baldrick, you're here for something else, aren't you?"

He nodded, took out an envelope from his briefcase, and handed it to her. She looked at the envelope but didn't take it.

Jarold had given her a small box the last time.

The box contained a priceless diamond necklace. What could be in the envelope this time? Could it be money?

"Madam Minerva?" Baldrick called out to her when he saw her staring at the envelope in a daze.

She came to her senses and asked him hesitantly, "Baldrick? This is... Can I ask you what's inside?"

He didn't reply. He just mysteriously handed her the envelope and said, "Madam Minerva, you will replace out later when you open it. It is a present from Master Collins for Beanie. He instructed me clearly to personally pass this to you."

She took it with trembling hands. She could feel that there was something very important inside the envelope.

Looking at the envelope, it could only be money inside, but when she wrapped her fingers around it, it felt more like a document.

Could it be...

Something flashed across Minerva's mind and she quickly returned the envelope.

"Baldrick, I can't take this. Please pass it back to Grandpa. Beanie is still too young and there is no need to prepare anything for him. I could barely keep the gift that he gave previously and this time..." She wasn't greedy at all, and her face only expressed a look of utmost sincerity. Baldrick nodded his head in approval and told her, "Madam Minerva, you're an honest person but this is the instruction given by Master Collins. I am just an employee of the Collins family, so my job is to do whatever they instruct me to do."

"Baldrick, stop joking around. How are you just an employee? You're a senior to me and this gift..."

"You have to accept this gift, Madam Minerva. Master Collins had said that if you feel pressured about receiving it, you don't have to be because this gift isn't for you, it is for Beani As a only normal for him to give a present to his great-grandson. He's more than happy to do so."

She felt that if she continued to refuse it, she would be giving him a hard time.

To put it bluntly, the gift was for her son and it had nothing to do with her. For that reason, she had no right to refuse the present on her son's behalf.

"Baldrick, I understand. I'll accept it on his behalf for now. However, it will be up to him whether he wants to accept it or not in the future."

"Alright." He didn't say anything else to persuade her. Only time would tell and as long as she accepted it for now, he had completed his task.

As for what would happen in the future, it would be decided when the time came.

After Minerva accepted the envelope, she started to worry. She was still not used to the sudden change in Jarold's attitude.

After all, she had accepted a priceless diamond from him which was a token of his appreciation to his loved one. It was invaluable to him but he gifted it to her.

In Minerva's opinion, even if Aurora did not want the necklace, it should have been under Abigail's name. She did not expect it to fall into her hands like that.

Now, Jarold even gave Beanie a gift. Was he doing this to comfort them since Beanie had to stay behind?

She looked at Baldrick as she pondered about everything. After a while, she went into the kitchen to pour him a cup of tea and invited him to sit down in the living room. "Thank you, Madam Minerva," Baldrick smiled and took a few sips of tea, then put it down.

"Baldrick, I know you're someone whom Grandpa trusts very much, so I have a few questions for you..." She was a little hesitant as she didn't know where to begin.

However, Baldrick seemed to have

read through her mind. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Madam Minerva, you want to ask about Beanie's matter, am I right? The truth is, Master Collins had asked Beanie if he was willing to stay and accompany him and he said yes. Although Master Collins was extremely moved by it, he thought that a child should be with his parents, unlike how he was in the past. That being the case... Beanie is coming home for good this time."

Upon hearing this, her heart jolted. She immediately raised her head to look at him.

"Baldrick?"

"Madam Minerva, I want to

apologize to you on Master Collins' behalf, including what had happened with Mr. Sebastian. Master Collins always had his reasons behind his actions and I've observed him for many years. Master Collins is actually a lonely man on the inside and when he finally found his

grandson, he made the wrong choice out of impulse, and that's

why..."

He even brought a cheque to the office and hoped that Minerva would leave.

andfather, it is

Previously, he did not have any guilt in how he treated her but now, he was filled with regrets.

Minerva thought about it and smiled,

"It is all in the past and I've never

held any grudges about it. Moreover, I am thankful to Grandpa for giving Maddox a second chance in life. It doesn't matter what he did. would never be angry with him."

Baldrick looked at her with gratitude in his eyes.

"I knew you were a keeper. I've always thought that you have an understanding and a kind soul. It looks like I was right about it all along."

After being praised by him, her face turned red. She said, "Baldrick, I'm flattered. I'm not as good as you think."

It was just that she was just too miserable back then. It was as if she had lost her entire world.

When she found out that Maddox was still alive, she was too happy.

From that moment on, she felt that it was God's gift towards her. The plane crash incident involved a lot of casualties but Maddox was able to survive it.

How could she hate him?

"Madam Minerva, since I've completed my task, I'm going to head back for now."

She was deep in thought when Baldrick suddenly stood up and prepared to leave.

She stood up quickly and asked, "Baldrick, why don't you stay for dinner? Also, about Grandpa..."
