Thus, she pursed her lips and did not say anything.
"What's wrong?"
Beanie thought that she was unhappy as she was silent for a long time. Hence, he asked her, "Did I say something to upset you?"
"No." Mashauva shook her head like a rattle. She crossed her fingers and whispered, "In fact, I came to see you today, not to eat."
Hearing that, Beanie understood what she meant.
"I know. It's me who wants to treat you to something. It's not you who wants to eat. Is that okay?"
Mashauva still liked good food and at that moment, she was almost drooling. She looked up and her cheeks were flushed. "Then, can I eat ice cream today?"
"Of course you can."
"Thank you, Beanie."
Then, he took Mashauva to eat ice cream. In the evening, Cassie came to pick her up to go home.
The next day, Mashauva went over again. In the following days, Mashauva was almost like a daughter of the Hanover family. She was there every day and was already very close with everyone in the family.
Even Maddox liked her too.
Of course, the reason he liked her was because she always pestered Beanie, who then had to spend his time with her, which saved Maddox a lot of trouble.
Although they had reached an agreement last time, Maddox was still worried that Minerva would overthink things, so he found time to prove his innocence to her.
"I did in fact find him a friend in the first place, but them getting along well later on isn't on me."
Minerva knew what he meant. "I didn't say that there's a problem. Why are you in such a hurry to prove your innocence?"
"I am afraid that if I don't prove it now, you will be angry later on."
Remembering her angry expression that night, he was terrified. The two of them had gone through too much hardships in the past. It wasn't easy for them to have a peaceful life like that then.
He hoped that in this life, they would never quarrel again.
Even if there was an argument, he would always compromise and let her win.
"I won't really be angry. Even if I get angry sometimes, it will only be temporary. Beanie is fine now. I asked him that day. He said that the chubby girl is very cute and he would take care of her as if she was his sister."
Since Vera gave birth, Quill had been running back and forth between his home and the company. He often couldn't get enough sleep, and even though Vera pitied him, Quill didn't know how to look after himself. Finally, he exhausted himself.
At the meeting that day, his complexion was very poor. Seeing that his expression was not well, Juliette took the initiative to ask him.
"President Hanover, you look pale. Would you like to stop the meeting? Shall I help you back to your office for you to take a break?"
Quill shook his head slightly. "There's no need."
Others also noticed that he looked pale, so they all asked with concern.
"President Hanover, are you sure that we don't have to pause the meeting? We can continue at any time. Your health is more important."
"Yes, President Hanover. You look pale. Why don't you go to the hospital first? Leave this to us. When the results come out, we will report it to you."
Everyone looked at Quill with worry. He coughed slightly and covered his mouth with his hands.
"It's all right. Let's continue the meeting."
Seeing that everyone was still staring at him, he then said, "I know my body well. Continue."
After the meeting, Quill returned to the office, closed his eyes and rested on the sofa.
After resting for about an hour, he got up again to continue working.
After working for a while, his felt that he started having double vision. He realized the severity of the matter and felt that he had to get off work early to go to the hospital that day.
Otherwise, he would not be able to do anything if things went on like that.
