Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 551

Kelly was very happy when Minerva praised her. After all, she had always looked up to her, as if Minerva was her idol.

However, what made Kelly sad was that Maddox had rejected her work. As long as he rejected her design for not being up to his standards, she would not be able to get the contract.

If she couldn't obtain the contract, how could she get a bonus?

This was what Kelly was worried about.

Upon hearing this, Minerva's hand, which was flipping the pages, paused for a moment. A moment later, she closed the document and thought for a moment. "Did he reject it right in front of you?"

Kelly shook her head and said, "No, I haven't even met him yet. His assistant told me that President Yardley was not satisfied with these design works, thus he asked me not to present such poor designs. Therefore... I took it here for you to have a look at it. Are my designs that bad?"

"It's not that it's bad." Minerva shook her head and looked at her seriously. "When I received the order, didn't I tell you that this project is a very large-scaled one? It will be more difficult than all other projects. Even I can't handle it."

"Yes, you did."

"Hence, you need to have great patience in order to complete it. Even if you don't succeed in the end, I think this process will definitely help you grow."

Although Maddox didn't understand the industry they were in, he was very picky and precise with what he wanted. It would be good to let Kelly experience such a project.

"Alright, I got it. Then, I'll go back and continue with the designs."

"Sure, go ahead."

After Kelly left, Vera adjusted the blazer on her body and looked at Minerva wryly. "You clearly know that she will not succeed. Why do you still challenge her to get this contract? In fact, I think we should have breached the contract back then. That way, we wouldn't face this many problems now."

"Many things wouldn't have happened if we had rescinded the contract back then. That way, I wouldn't suffer from a headache now."

Minerva reached out and pinched her nose bridge. She did not know how long Maddox would be entangled with her.

The scene of the banquet the night before was still vivid in her mind. The words he whispered in her ear, the passionate kiss and the intimate actions had all been replaying in her mind over and over again.

Even though she no longer wanted to be with him, her body was still very honest. She thought of all kinds of things about him.

Due to the fact that Minerva's identity had been revealed, the company had many clients who had a vested interest. Vera would have to meet them after tidying up. She was exhausted after a day's work.

"If I had known that the banquet would attract so much business, we would have held the banquet the moment we returned to North City."

Minerva muttered, "There are so many customers all of a sudden. I feel that I might not be able to handle it."

Seeing that it was time to get off work, Minerva's expression changed slightly as she urged Vera, "Pack up your things quickly. We are going to pick Beanie up."

Vera also came to her senses and quickly packed up her things. Then, she put on Quill's blazer and followed Minerva out.

The two then went to pick Beanie up. Beanie couldn't help exclaiming when he saw the blazer as soon as he got into the car.

"Aunt Vera, are you wearing my uncle's suit?"

Hearing this, Vera gave him a hard glare. "Who did you inherit such sharp eyes from?"

Beanie took advantage of this and hugged Vera's arm. "Auntie Vera, are you going to be my real aunt soon?"

Vera rolled her eyes angrily and said, "I want to, but your uncle doesn't want me."

Previously, she didn't want to admit it because she felt embarrassed. However, since her feelings had been exposed by Quill and he had even refused her on the spot, Vera no longer minded it.

Upon hearing this, Minerva couldn't help chuckling. "She's not your real aunt yet, but she might be in the future."
