Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1097

Ernest smiled and said, "Mrs. lais, there's nothing wrong with him; he's quite healthy. It's just that he has always put his focus on work, so he doesn't have time to date. As time went on, he didn't have much interest in dating anymore."

At that, he suddenly paused.

Why was he only talking about Quill's flaws and nothing good? How would he be able to set him up this way? What if Vera's mother thought that he was saying all these just to shame her daughter?

Sure enough, when Ernest raised his head, he saw Mabie's eyes had become somewhat resentful.

It was normal. After all, no one would want their daughter to be taken advantage of, and his description of his friend sounded questionable.

"I'm sorry, I mean to say that my friend has a successful career, but he is not as experienced when it comes to relationships. He doesn't have any unhealthy habits; he doesn't smoke, drink or gamble. I noticed Miss Zais has a decent temperament, so I thought I could set her up with my friend. I'm sorry if I offended you."

Mabie felt a lot better after listening to his explanation.

"It's not a big deal that he isn't experienced in relationships but... Vera looks rather average. Since your friend has a successful career, I'm sure he's used to seeing all kinds of beautiful women, yet he still hasn't managed to find anyone he likes. So why would he..."

What Mabie meant was that the man didn't show interest in stunning women, so why would he be interested in an ugly duckling like Vera.

Vera looked at Mabie with resentment as she stood beside her.

Did her mother really give birth to her? Why does she have to attack her like this all the time?

Ernest found Vera and Mabie's relationship amusing. He composed himself and said, "When my wife and I first got together, she would always complain about the beautiful women around me, but as time passed, it was no longer an issue. There are many good- looking people on this planet, but it's rare to find an interesting soul. It's important to find someone with a soul that connects to you."

Mabie was at a loss for words.

She blinked.

Ernest's words were deep and philosophical, but Mabie still understood what he was trying to say. He had meant to say that there would be many beautiful women out there, but a compatible personality was what would make the relationship last.

"Perhaps... I'll try to call him? Maybe you two could meet next time?"

Vera finally couldn't help but say euphemistically, "Mr. Lowell, I'm really grateful for your thought, but right now, my focus is on this restaurant, and I'm afraid that I might not have time to deal with other things. I'm really sorry. Truly..."

She expressed her apologies to him deeply. She hadn't expected Ernest to set her up with someone. She still had someone in her heart, and she didn't think it was a good idea to be set up with another person.

Therefore, before she could completely get over her feelings for Quill, she would not be going on any dates or have any progress in her love life.

Since she had been back home, she had been introduced to quite a few dates, but she rejected them all. Because of that, rumors and gossip arose.

"That's okay. Since your focus is not on this, we can talk about it again when you have the time. I don't think my friend has any plans to get married in these two years anyway. Although..." Ernest raised his eyebrows and held a pregnant pause. "I may be wrong, but I think he would actually get married instantly if he finds true love."

Vera was bewildered.

At this point, Vera thought that Ernest was acting strange. Why was he still telling her about his friend? It had nothing to do with her at all.

However, perhaps because he had a close relationship with that friend, and he couldn't help but bring it up. Therefore, she didn't take it to heart.

So Vera smiled at him and did not answer.

It could be seen that she was indeed not interested. Ernest didn't insist further and left after staying for awhile.
