Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1257

Quill walked over, squatted down in front of her, and patted her face gently.

"Vivy?"

Vera slept soundly; she only slowly woke up after Quill had called her for a long time. With a pair of sleepy eyes, she looked at Quill in a daze.

"Huh?" She whined as if she was still very sleepy. Quill gently held her chin and said softly, "Have you slept enough?"

At first, Vera was still in a blur, but when she saw who was in front of her, an adorkable smile appeared on her face. "You're back?"

Because she had been soaking in the water for a long time, her fair face was rosy at that moment, and her eyes were watery.

Her appearance...

Quill's throat tightened, and his voice dropped a little. "Yea, I'm back."

Vera smiled adorkably and whispered, "What did you go out to do?"

Quill did not answer her.

His breathing was a little messy as he avoided her gaze. "Get up first. The water's already cold. You'll catch a cold if you keep on soaking in it." "Huh?" Vera stared at him in confusion.

Quill chuckled. "This girl; she's probably groggy. Does she know what situation she's in?" He thought.

So Vera just stared at the person in front of her for a few seconds. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, and her expression changed slightly as she lowered her head.

"Ah!" Realizing where she was at the moment, Vera let out a cry and shrank into the water.

However, before she could shrink her entire body into the water, Quill grabbed her shoulder and pulled her up. He said helplessly, "I've just said the water had turned cold, yet you still want to hide in it?"

"B-But..." Vera stammered as she looked at him. She was so nervous that she could not even speak clearly.

"Hmm?" A faint smile appeared on Quill's face. He leaned closer to her and said in a teasing tone, "You didn't act like this when you took the initiative last night."

At the mention of last night, Vera's face turned even redder. She bit her lower lip awkwardly. "Um... Last night, I was trying to help you, that's why..."

"Oh?" Quill looked at her with a faint smile. "You didn't have the slightest bit of selfishness?"

Selfishness?

"Impossible! I-1 didn't have any! I just wanted to help you! If you didn't look like you were suffering so much, I wouldn't..."

At the end of her words, Vera's face turned completely red. Obviously, she couldn't continue.

She denied it completely and refused to admit that she wanted to do it. Quill knew that if he continued to tease her, she might turn red all over. He held her chin with one hand, leaned over, and sighed. "What a thankless girl."

As soon as he finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed her.

Vera had wanted to say she wasn't. No matter how, she managed to sleep with him, so she would not admit she was the one who took the initiative. She would insist that she was only trying to help him to save her face. Hmph!

But to her surprise, Quill kissed her all of a sudden. She froze on the spot, not knowing how to react.

It was not until her mouth was pried open that Vera realized Quill was kissing her with the strength and demands of man.

And his hand...

Vera muffled a sound, and in the next second, Quill grabbed her waist and pulled her out of the bathtub.

Just when she thought something would happen next, Quill took a bath towel from the side and wrapped it around her before leaving.

"Get dressed and get ready for dinner."

Then, Quill left the bathroom without looking back.
