Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1117

"Hmph. She's my daughter so I can say anything I want about her. Don't you dare say anything about it."

David was speechless.

Forget it, he was not going to reason with a woman.

"Well, our daughter seems to be seeing someone recently. I'm going to keep an eye on her."

He wanted to tell Mabie to give Vera some personal space, but he ended up keeping quiet about it because he figured that mothers and daughters had a closer bond so they could talk about that topic.

Vera didn't eat much throughout the day because she didn't feel hungry, probably due to being overexcited. She was oddly energetic. After taking a bath, she tried on the dress.

Surprisingly, the dress fit her figure very well, especially around her shoulders and her waistline.

The designer was very specific with his designs. It was only meant for young women, and he only made them in one size. Furthermore, he would only make one dress for each design and there would never be a second piece of the same work.

Vera was shocked when the dress fit her, and it meant that her figure was not bad.

It was fortunate for her. If she was to be slightly chubbier, the dress would have been too tight on her.

The more she thought about it, the more she was thankful for the fact that she didn't eat much that day. If she did, her belly would stick out and it would not look good.

The banquet was held the day after tomorrow, so she went to Quill's office the next day as usual.

Although she came here every day, she would still politely greet the receptionist before going upstairs.

When she arrived at the front desk that day, she realized that there were six to seven girls gathered at the front desk. They all looked like employees of Hanover Corporation.

She thought that they were dealing with something, so she didn't go forward to disturb them. Later, she was stopped by one of them.

"Hey, delivery girl. Wait a minute."

Delivery girl?

Vera stopped and doubtfully looked at the source of the voice. Was she referring to her?

After all, she looked around and did not find anyone else who was delivering food.

Vera pointed at herself. A tall girl in the crowd nodded proudly and said, "Yes, you. Come here."

She didn't know why the girl asked for her but out of politeness, Vera walked over.

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

As soon as she approached, all the girls examined her impolitely. It seemed that they were going to eat her alive as they casted their eyes over her.

"What's going on?" Vera blinked her eyes and looked at these women who suddenly appeared.

She didn't know if it was her hallucination when she noticed that the gazes of these girls looking at her were full of hostility. When had she ever offended them?

All of them looked at Vera. It was probably because the receptionist previously described her to them as a very average-looking girl, and she told them she could barely remember what she looked like. Therefore, these girls imagined her as an average-looking passerby. When they saw her in person, they felt bitter on the inside.

Vera was not as ugly as they thought, nor was she ordinary. She was wearing simple clothing, and it was obvious that she prioritized comfort over her looks. Despite that, she did not look plain, but she was nice to look at and she was youthful. Her eyes looked lively too.

Most of them had dark eye circles from working late nights. Although they used expensive skincare products, their skin couldn't be compared with the fair and flawless one of a young woman.
