Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1275

Why?!

Why would something so awkward and embarrassing happen?!

Why did she not put a filter over her mouth? Why? Why?! Vera was filled with awkwardness and humiliation. Perhaps it was due to this overwhelming emotion that she lost her normal sense of composure. She sat upright there, motionless.

"Ahem..." Minerva let out an awkward cough as she sat by her side.

Minerva didn't expect Vera to say such a bold statement after being agitated by her. It didn't matter if there were just the two of them, but...

Who would've thought the office door would open at that moment? Not only had Quill returned, but he also brought a few senior managers with him.

Minerva felt that this was probably the most awkward moment in Vera's life.

Nothing else would beat this!

She coughed a few more times awkwardly and smiled. She then stood up and said to Vera, "You are quite ambitious. I have high hopes for you; keep it up. I'll make a move now."

After that, she walked to the entrance of the office quickly. She made eye contact with Quill.

Quill could see the ridicule in Minerva's eyes. He felt nothing but helplessness in his heart.

"Quill, I'll come over again tonight. Let's have dinner together."

"Sure."

No matter how awkward it was, Quill already got over it. He naturally accepted his sister's invitation.

After Minerva left, the senior managers who were shocked by Vera's bold statement responded in hindsight.

"Seems like President Hanover has something else to deal with. Why don't we discuss this matter some other day?" One of them laughed and suggested.

"Yeah. President Hanover, we'll continue the discussion amongst ourselves first."

Hearing all of that, Vera wished she could dig a hole and bury herself in it. She bit her lower lip, and she was utterly flushed.

However, at this moment, Quill called to her indifferently, "Vivy."

Vera immediately looked at him; the hair on the back of her neck stood.

What was he planning to do, calling her name at a time like this?!

"Go wait for me in the lounge. I have something to deal with here, alright?"

Quill's tone lifted as he got to the end of his sentence as if he was cajoling her. It sounded exceptionally doting.

She was already very embarrassed. When Minerva was leaving, she wanted to leave with her. However, she realized her legs wouldn't move at all.

She froze on the spot just like that.

Vera had scolded Minerva countless times in her heart for being a crappy friend. How dare she flee away at such a time, and leave her alone to face the crowd.

Therefore, since Quill had asked her to go into the lounge, she nodded dazedly and slowly got up. She pretended as if nothing happened as she slowly walked into the lounge.

Only she knew her legs were quivering from nervousness and fear when she walked.

After Vera went into the lounge and closed the door, she slid down slowly with her back against the door. She lost all her strength and felt soft like a marshmallow.

Boohoo...

Vera covered her face. She felt too humiliated to face anyone.

She even felt that teasing Quill that night was far less embarrassing than what she did just now. What she said was different from what she did. She could still at least argue that she was trying to help him that night.
