Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1172

After Vera ran back into her room, she quickly opened her closet to look for some clothes. After looking around, she found that her clothes were all relatively casual; none were either ladylike or mature-looking.

There was only one eye- catching dress in the cabinet. It was the floral dress that Ko by brought over for her when she was in Quill's house the other day.

She took out the dress and held it before herself in front of the mirror. She didn't expect that it would be the most elegant dress in her closet. However, Quill bought her that dress, after all; wouldn't it be a little too insincere if she wore this dress to meet him?

After some hesitation, Vera thought that she should go to the mall to buy some clothes.

Hold on; she was short of money for now... earlier, she had asked Beanie to transfer the money to Quill; she was now broke.

Vera checked the balance in her bank account and found that she only had 200 dollars left.

She supported her chin with a hand and thought if she should get some money from the restaurant.

No way! The money in the restaurant was for stock purchases and wages. If she took that money every time she didn't have any, they wouldn't have enough to renew stocks and pay the staff wages. By then, the restaurant might be in trouble.

Thinking of this, Vera dismissed the idea.

Mabie left for the restaurant in the morning. After she left, Vera sneaked to David's side and called to him sweetly, "Dad..."

David was reading the newspaper when he heard a female voice suddenly calling him; he looked at his daughter.

"Vivy, are you looking for your mother? She went out."

Vera's lips parted, and she showed a smile.

"It's not that. I'm looking for you."

"Me?" Upon hearing this, David put the newspaper on the coffee table, and his expression seemed quite serious. "Is it something important?"

Seeing David like this, Vera suddenly didn't know how to tell him. When she started the restaurant, she said that she didn't want her parents' money, but they still secretly helped her financially. Vera knew that they had saved up throughout the years. Moreover, she was their only daughter. Since the couple didn't have other hobbies, and they didn't gamble or spend much, their family's savings was rather decent.

But it was still difficult for Vera to ask for money from David.

She always thought that she had grown up and she had to be filial toward her parents. But the money her parents chipped in for her restaurant aside, how could she allow herself to ask for more money from her parents now.

"Vivy?"

Vera smiled and shook her head. "Nothing. It's just that I noticed you have more white hair lately. If you are tired, we should cancel the delivery service. Not only do we not gain much profit from it, but you also have to run around tirelessly."

Hearing her words, David immediately refused her request.

"How could we do so? It may not be much, but it's still money. What else can I do now that I've retired and I can't help out much in the restaurant? Don't tell me stuff like I should stay at home and enjoy my retirement. If I stay at home and do nothing all the time, I would go limp after a long time."

"But you have to bear the hot sun every day if you do delivery..." "All right. If this is all you want to say, then you can go back to your room. I don't want to hear this anymore."

After that, David began to cover his face with the newspaper and refused to continue the conversation.

Vera didn't know what to say.

"Dad!"

David continued to block his face, completely ignoring her.

Vera had no choice but to go back to her room. She looked at the clothes in the room for a while and finally put on the clothes she usually wore.

When Vera headed out, she thought that this was how she looked all the time, so why should she change after dating him? If he was willing to date her, it would've meant that he accepted how she was. Although she really wanted to better herself so that she could be worthy of him.

However... sometimes, the difference between people could be drastic.
