Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1385

Yulia was despondent when she left Quill's office.

With the proposal in her hand, she didn't even look where she was going. She didn't even realize how many times the elevator had climbed or opened and closed as all that was in her mind was Quill's invitation to his wedding.

Why? Why so soon?

She had already promised to revive the Maxwell family. Couldn't he give her some time? Hadn't they been dating for only a short while? How had he already proposed?

Yulia's mind was in a mess. Recalling the hostility in Vera's eyes that day, she felt suffocated. How did it come to this?

What was she to do if they actually got married? What was there left for her to hope for?

Lately, the employees in Vera's restaurant had been envious of her love life when they saw the diamond ring on her finger.

Moreover, the guests who often patronized the restaurant couldn't help asking when they saw the diamond ring on her finger as she served them.

And she couldn't help blushing and giggling every time.

A few of the employees were laughing and discussing among themselves.

"Did you guys notice? Ever since Vera wore the diamond ring, she had become more and more beautiful. It's said that love can nourish a woman and make her more beautiful. I didn't believe it before, but I do now! Vera has been glowing recently."

"Oh, the diamond ring is so big and sparkly. I'm so jealous. Not only that, her boyfriend is a dreamboat. I heard he's the president of a company. She's so lucky!"

"Well, stop it. I'm jealous too. Call me the green-eyed monster."

"If you guys keep this up, I'll dock your wages."

When Vera came in, she heard them discussing her love life, so she deliberately deepened her voice and scolded them to scare them.

However, they had been working in the restaurant for a long time, so they knew Vera was easy-going, and she wouldn't actually dock their wages.

So they were not afraid of Vera but even teased her.

"Vera, a woman in love, shouldn't have such a bad temper. Besides, are you willing to actually dock our wages? We all wish you the very best." "Yeah. By the way, Vera, since you already have the ring, your wedding would be just around the corner, wouldn't it? When is it? Can we all take a break and attend?"

Well, although they hadn't had plans for the wedding, Vera still nodded and said, "Of course. I'll let you guys know when the date is set. I'll give you guys three days off and an invitation to the wedding. How about that?"

"Hooray!"

"Thank you, Vera!"

They cheered, then worked even harder.

It wasn't until a few days later that Minerva learned Vera had been proposed to. She had gone to her restaurant as she had been worried about what happened the last time, and Vera hadn't contacted her in a while.

When she saw Minerva, Vera immediately felt guilty.

However, Minerva continued to narrow her eyes as she saw the diamond ring in her hand.

"Fine, keep me in the dark. Am I, a sister and a best friend, not allowed to know at all?"

Vera quickly grabbed her hand and tried to say something to make up for it.

"No, no. I just didn't get a chance to tell you. I forgot."

"Oh." Minerva said, stony-faced, "Is this what they call forsaking one's friends after they have a lover? You're going to cast me aside after you managed to capture my brother's heart?"

"Minerva!" Vera called to her hurriedly, "Stop it. Besides, you'd constantly neglect me when you were dating Mr. Yardley."
