Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1179

"Accompanying Mr. Lowell?" There was a slight change in Quill's eyes. It seemed that Ernest was bored to death; he deliberately came over and waited for so long just to have a meal. Not only that, he even called him over as well.

"Do you want me to bring you upstairs?"

Mabie's words pulled Quill back to reality. He smiled politely and said faintly, "Thank you for the offer, Auntie. I can go up by myself. I rushed over today, so I didn't prepare anything. I'll visit you some other time."

His tone was indifferent, but Mabie did not think there was anything wrong at all. After all, he was an outstanding man, yet he was willing to come over to look for her daughter again and again. Although Vera ignored him for an entire day, he remained his cool.

He also did not try to flatter Mabie only because she was Vera's mother, and Mabie was indeed satisfied with that.

She didn't care how good the man's attitude was toward herself and David, as long as he treated their daughter sincerely.

"What are you talking about? It's good enough that you're here. You don't have to visit us purposely. Alright, why don't you head up first."

Quill smiled faintly and said gently, "Thank you, Auntie."

After Quill went upstairs, Mabie kept thinking that something was amiss. It took her a long time to finally realize what the problem was.

When she said that Vera was with Mr. Lowell upstairs, she unconsciously blurted it out. However, Quill did not ask who Mr. Lowell was. Could it be that he knew who he was? Did the two of them actually know each other?

Vera would have just brought Ernest his pasta and left at ordinary times. But she felt a little embarrassed at the fact that he waited for her for so long, and they were on a first-name basis after, so Vera felt that they weren't that distant anymore.

At least they were slightly closer now, so she just sat there and accompanied Ernest for his meal.

Seeing Vera sitting upright in front of him, Ernest recalled the times his wife was still alive. She was around his age, so when she passed, they were around Vera's age.

However, his wife was not as well- behaved as Vera. She was always playful and mischievous, and she couldn't sit still even when they were having a meal. She would always fool around with him, sometimes asking him to feed her, and she would feed him as well. They were always clingy after they confirmed their relationship.

Ernest knew that others gossiped that they wouldn't last long as they were too clingy, but they never broke up. Later on, they got married, and their relationship became even better after marriage, unfortunately...

Fate was indeed fair.

Probably because they had used up all the clinginess in that life in advance, that was why God decided to bring his beautiful wife back.

"Ernest?"

Ernest thought he heard someone calling him. When he came to his senses, he saw Vera's palm waving in front of him.

Realizing he was lost in thought, Ernest smiled and said, "Sorry, I would subconsciously think of my wife every time I sit here."

Vera's hand stopped her action. It took her a while before she slowly withdrew it. She said nervously, "S-sorry..."

He thought of his wife again. He was probably dejected, wasn't he? When Vera saw that he sat motionlessly and his eyes were empty as if he had fallen into his memories, she called out to him as she got worried.

"It's alright." Ernest lowered his head and took a mouthful. The bitter taste instantly spread from the end of his tongue and filled his entire mouth; it felt the same as when he thought of his wife in the middle of the night.

"I'm used to living such a life."

Vera really didn't know how to comfort others, nor did she have much experience with it. She could only stammer as she said, "Ernest, don't be sad. Since you're my older brother now, feel free to come over whenever you miss your wife. I'll cook for you. I'll never allow other customers to enter this room either; I'll leave it only for you."

Her words were so sincere that Ernest couldn't help but laugh.

"I've never expected myself to get a younger sister after Quill dated a girl. Not bad."
