Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 396

'Tm fine." Minerva gave a careful thought about it. Then, she shook her head forcefully and lowered her eyes to the files in front of her.

It shouldn't be in such a manner.

She should have shut off her feelings a long time ago and treated Maddox as a stranger even if she came across him.

Minerva closed her eyes, only to discover that she had really messed up.

"Something must have happened!" Vera had lived with her for five years. As such, she knew Minerva well and could sense her emotions. She then narrowed her eyes and inched closer to Minerva. "Didn't you go and meet Janice? Why did you come back so quickly? Tell me, did Janice bully you?"

When Minerva heard this, she looked up at Vera's ferocious look.

Minerva sought pleasure in the midst of sorrow, curling her lips. "What would you do if I said yes?"

Vera cracked her knuckles at once. "If Janice bullies you, I will rush over and beat her up. Anyway, I am a woman. No one dares to blame me even if I beat a woman."

"Please, it's a lawful society. You should be punished for beating people up randomly."

Vera let out a chuckle. "Well, can't I seek revenge for you? Besides, I would just beat her up and spare her life." "I don't want to tease you anymore. It's not a big problem. The reason I came back so soon was because our client, Miss Lowell had some other matters to attend to."

"Judging from your expression, it doesn't seem to be it." Vera held her chin with one hand. "Hurry up and tell me, what else has happened besides this?"

Minerva took a deep breath as soon as she heard Vera. Subsequently, she smiled helplessly. "Why are you being gossipy? What else would happen?"

"Then why are you in the state of stupefaction for such a long time?"

"Because I'm thinking about Miss Lowell's preferences for her outfit."

Vera was not entirely convinced of her reply. "Well, if there is anything, remember to tell me. Don't bottle it up inside."

"Alright."

Minerva heaved a sigh of relief after Vera left.

That girl was indeed excessively sensitive.

Anyway, Minerva blamed herself for not hiding her emotions well.

Even Vera could sense that something was wrong with her. Wouldn't it be possible that Maddox could tell that as well?

"That won't do..."

Five years ago, she swallowed her pride, begging to see him, but in the end, he filed for a divorce.

Minerva could not afford to behave inappropriately again in front of Maddox.

She had to stay calm no matter what.

That man had become a stranger to her for a long time.

"Ding-dong..."

The phone vibrated. It was a Facebook message from Janice.

Janice texted, "I'm sorry, Shelly. It was an accident today. I'm really sorry to have held you back. Why don't we meet up again tonight? The place is still at that restaurant. I'll treat you to a meal."

"Tonight?” Minerva's eyes glimmered for a moment, and she swiftly tapped on the phone keyboard.
