Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 364

Hearing that, Vera immediately raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "Do you need to be this realistic? Even if I know that I will grow old, it's not up to you to talk about it. Beanie, you cannot do this to me right after eating my fish and chips. Don't you want me to cook for you in the future?"

Feeling that his future meals were threatened, Beanie immediately changed his tone, "I was wrong. Auntie Vera, you will still be a beauty even when you are old."

Those words were very pleasing to Vera, and only then did she nod her head in satisfaction.

"I'll forgive you then, and I'll still make you fish and chips next time."

She didn't notice that Beanie covered his chest with his hands when he said this, as if his conscience was hurt.

Seeing that, Minerva reached out to pinch Beanie's cheek and said in a low voice, "Naughty boy."

That night, the three of them packed up their belongings and got into the car sent by Quill before heading to North City.

Vera was Minerva's assistant, so of course she would also follow her. Although it was a little strange for her to do so, she did not care much.

Vera's idea was that it was too lonely for her to stay alone in that apartment hence she wanted to go with them. If worse came to worst, she would say that Beanie liked to eat her cooking and she was there to cook for him.

Thinking of this, Vera's heart was filled with joy.

Meanwhile, Maddox was heading back to North City.

Abigail came out to see him off. "Are you sure you don't want to stay here for two more days? You've been driving for so long to get here and now you're leaving after only two days?"

Maddox heard her and glanced at her unhappily.

"I still have work to do."

"Is work more important than your aunt? Ah, what an unfilial child. Go, go ahead. Drive carefully."

"Okay."

"Well, you young people are all stubborn. It's dangerous to drive in the middle of the night, and yet you cannot wait until it's daytime to depart."

Maddox pursed his thin lips tightly. He ignored Abigail's scolding and got into the car.

After a while, he said coldly, "There's no traffic jam at night so it'll be a smooth journey."

"Goodbye."

Abigail stood at the same spot and watched the car leave. The streetlights casted her long shadow on the ground. When the night breeze blew the silk scarf on her shoulder, Abigail could not help sighing. She didn't know how long it would take for Maddox to truly open his heart and accept other women.

Kimberly Shell...

That name had already disappeared from his life for five years, and had not appeared again.

Abigail didn't know where she had gone, but she actually liked Kimberly very much. However... maybe they were just not fated to be together.

"Well, let's just leave it to fate then," thought Abigail.

At her age, she no longer had the strength to force anything.

Thinking of this, Abigail wrapped the scarf around her neck and turned to go upstairs.

Everyone thought that the midnight journey would be very smooth, but somehow, there was an explosion on the highway at midnight which completely blocked the road ahead.

Minerva and the others were quite far away from the explosion. They only heard the sound of an explosion before all the cars in front of them stopped. Vera was originally leaning against the chair to sleep, but when she was suddenly awakened by the sound.

Minerva saw a burst of flames soaring into the sky in front of her, which was shocking to see. She subconsciously reached out and hugged Beanie who was beside her.

"F*ck, what's going on?" Vera wound down the car window and poked her head out. She was terrified when she saw the blazing fire in front of her.

"Gosh, what happened in front of us?" She immediately retracted her head and looked at Minerva. "Minerva, should we abandon our car and leave this place? It feels so dangerous here."
