Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1120

Listening to Juliette's straightforward words, Vera's heart was beating rapidly. At the same time, Quill's gaze went past the crowd and landed on her.

Their eyes met in midair.

"Go ahead."

Juliette nudged her back, indicating for her to move forward.

However, Vera stayed where she was. She didn't dare to step forward and looked at her with hesitation. Juliette's eyes lookes like smiling. "What are you doing? President Hanover is waiting for you in front. If you don't go over now, he might go in himself, and you would be here for nothing tonight. You'll lose your chance."

After hearing what she said, Vera realized that since she had promised to attend the banquet as Quill's chaperon, she should be brave to take the first step.

She didn't want to leave so she could only step forward.

"Thank you."

Vera took a deep breath and got herself together. Then, she walked towards him.

Quill was tall and handsome. He was calm and mature. When he stood there, it was as if there was a halo around him. People couldn't help looking at him.

People who attended the banquet today were all upper class. Among them, some parents were dying to bring their daughters so they could experience events like this and take the chance to meet some big shots. Hence, it was likely that they were trying to set their daughters up with someone from this banquet.

Since they had daughters, their eyes were naturally set on him.

Before entering the hall, many girls looked at him and then some of their parents would sigh.

"Don't look at that man. It would just be a waste of time."

The parent next to him also echoed when he heard that.

"Yeah, I heard that he had rejected many women in the past, and he had never brought a chaperon for banquets before other than his secretary. However, I heard that his secretary has been married for many years and she even has kids now."

"Does he not like women? Does he like men?" "That's not possible. He doesn't have many men around him either. What's scary is how disciplined he is. I heard that Mr. Harris invited him to a private event and there were many gorgeous women there. Despite how they tried to seduce him, he refused to look at them."

"It seems that there is no hope."

Some ladies refused to give up, so they tugged at their father's sleeves.

"Dad, why do I think that the reason he's like this is that he has yet to meet someone that he liked? If he doesn't like men, then this must be the only reason. He is probably indifferent in the past because he was not attracted to those women. Why don't we try our luck today?"

After listening to his daughter's words, the father thought that what she said was rather dumb. Perhaps he had spoiled her too much, resulting in her speaking without thinking.

When he was about to yell at her, the person who was talking to him suddenly turned to his daughter and said.

"She may be right about it. Maybe it's because the woman isn't pretty enough! Why don't you with her go to give it a try? At least you have a companion." The two girls looked at each other with disdain in their eyes, but soon pretended to be friendly with each other.

"Then let's go together."

"Sure."

Quill's eyes had been following Vera. At first, his face was calm, but gradually his eyebrows frowned because when she was walking towards him, she was suddenly blocked by a man. After that, the man's lips curled up in a smile as if he was saying something to her.

The scene of the two of them standing together made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
