Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 489

"No." Minerva shook her head and said, "It wasn't me who got injured."

Kelly's eyes widened in bewilderment. "I heard Vera say that you were not injured, but I also heard that Janice had splashed sulfuric acid. That woman is really too scary. We can never let this type of person be our client in the future."

"Client?" Minerva gently said the word. She then smiled faintly and said, "Not anymore. Even if she wants to be our client in the future, she would never stand a chance."

She had used sulfuric acid to intentionally cause harm. Although it didn't hurt her, she did hurt Maddox.

Based on Maddox's character, how could he not make things difficult for Janice? Moreover, even if Maddox didn't make things difficult for her, Minerva wouldn't have let Janice off the hook anyways.

She felt a surge of anger when she thought of how Maddox's back had been injured. That thought had somehow started a rage in her heart.

"What do you mean by that? Have you come up with a solution?"

"She injured a person intentionally so she has to bear the consequences. I don't need to do anything to her; someone else will." After Minerva finished speaking, she suddenly felt a dull pain between her eyebrows. She stretched out her hand and pinched the space between her eyebrows to try to stop the pain.

Kelly saw this and whispered, "You didn't sleep well last night, did you? I have some ointment here. Put some on your forehead and you might feel better.'¹

After that, Kelly opened her bag, took out a bottle of ointment and handed it to Minerva.

Minerva looked at the bottle of ointment and frowned subconsciously.

She... didn't quite like the smell of the medicinal ointment.

Therefore, she did not reach out to take it. She just smiled at Kelly and said, "Thank you but I'm fine. I'll just rest for a while."

Kelly stared at her for a while and suddenly asked, "You don't like the smell, do you? Don't worry. I didn't like it at first as well but it does really help! Come, I'll help you apply it." After saying this, Kelly directly opened the lid and then she went forward to apply it on Minerva's forehead for her.

Minerva was a little annoyed by her behavior because she was not that close with Kelly, but she actually...

However, even though Minerva was annoyed, she did not show it on her face. She knew that Kelly was just concerned about her. If she showed even the slightest impatience at that moment, she knew that it could really hurt her feelings.

When Kelly stepped back, she also smiled at her. "Just wait and see. You will feel better after a while."

Minerva also smiled at her and said, "Thank you." Feeling a little embarrassed, Kelly turned her face away and said haughtily, "I... I was not caring for you. I was just... just worried that your mind is not working well enough at the moment to handle this matter properly."

At this time, the door of the elevator opened at the sound of the ring, and Kelly rushed out.

Minerva kept quiet.

When she returned to the office, Vera happened to be handling things in front of her desk. Seeing her come back, she immediately stood up. "My God, I thought you were going to stay in the hospital for 24 hours. It turns out you do know that you have to come back, huh?"

Upon hearing her teasing, Minerva couldn't help but glare at her. "What? You don't even feel sorry for me being at the hospital for the past 24 hours? You are even laughing at me despite it?"

"How could I?" Vera smiled and said, "You stayed at the hospital but it was not you who was in pain so why should I feel sorry for you?"

"Oh, just because I won't feel any pain, I wouldn't feel tired?" Minerva pinched her neck and shoulders. Last night, because she was sleeping in the chair all night, she felt sore all over her body. Even now, her neck area was still uncomfortable.

"Fine, I am just joking with you. If I don't feel sorry for you, I won't be taking care of your work in the office at this time. You can go back today. Leave everything to me. Have a good rest. I know you will definitely go back to the hospital at night."

Minerva kept quiet.

Minerva thought, "Why does it feel like I've fallen into a trap?" She placed her hand into her pocket and narrowed her eyes as she studied Vera.
