Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1189

Everyone surrounded Jelly Bean, and the atmosphere was joyous.

Vera, who was standing by the side, was also delighted to see Jelly Bean's adorable appearance. She would reach out her hand and poke Jelly Bean's soft and cute fist from time to time. She felt happy as she touched it, and she kept doing so, having fun with it.

Quill, who was at the side, naturally noticed Vera's actions. Her innocent and lovely behaviour made a smile gradually appear on Quill's cold countenance.

Minerva did not know why, but she had a mischievous thought all of a sudden. Looking at Vera, she asked, "Is my daughter cute?"

Vera did not know what she was going to say next. She only took that Minerva was happy to have a daughter, so she nodded excitedly, "Of course, Jelly Bean is so adorable. Look at her tiny hand, her little face. Aww, so soft and cute. If I weren't afraid of hurting her, I'd really want to carry her."

However, newborns were too small and fragile. Vera, a person who had never been a mother, did not dare pick Jelly Bean up for fear of hurting her.

"It's alright. You can try carrying her."

Vera shook her head and said, "No, it's fine. No need to rush. I'll hold her when she's a little older. There's still more to come. It's not like I don't have a chance in the future."

"If you really like babies so much, you should hurry up and give birth to one."

After saying that, Minerva even deliberately glanced at her older brother, Quill.

Vera was still excited earlier, but her whole body went stiff that moment. She stared at Minerva with wide eyes. Why did she deliberately mention that when there were so many people around?

Vera didn't know what Quill's thoughts were, but there were so many people there. Her face blushed all over, and she didn't dare look at Quill at all.

However, Quill defended her and glanced indifferently at Minerva, saying faintly, "You sure have the strength to ridicule me right after delivering. Looks like you're not that exhausted at all."

Minerva blinked and held Maddox's hand tightly.

"With someone accompanying me, why would I be exhausted?" While gripping, Minerva suddenly realized something. She turned her head and saw that her fingers were pinching right onto Maddox's wound.

To be honest, it was not a serious wound. Minerva had left a bite mark; it seemed deep, and it was even bleeding.

Minerva heard the doctor asking Maddox if he needed them to deal with the wound earlier, but Maddox didn't seem to care about it. Yet...

Minerva moved her fingers away in a panic. Looking at the deep bite marks, her heart ached for him.

"Don't show such a look. It doesn't hurt at all."

How could it not hurt at all? Minerva didn't believe him at all. The wound was so deep; it was obvious that he was lying.

"Do you think that I'm a three-year-old?"

Everyone saw the couple suddenly bantering as if there was no one else around. Abigail then eyed the people around, and all of them retreated quietly.

"Since when did I take you as a three-year-old?" Maddox chuckled softly, feeling helpless. He put his injured hand behind his back and said, "A man shouldn't cry when he's in pain. Such a small injury is nothing. You, on the other hand, must be tired."

It would be a lie if Minerva said she wasn't moved.

No matter when, whether it was during her younger days or her current age, or perhaps when she got older, she still wouldn't be able to resist the gentleness of the person she loved.

Just like right now, even though Minerva had been in great pain when she gave birth, she still felt satisfied deep down.

It was completely different from when she gave birth to Beanie back then.
