Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 576

"President Yardley," Vera greeted Maddox nervously.

Maddox's cold gaze swept across the room. When he couldn't see Minerva, his eyes darkened and he asked, "Where is Minerva?"

Vera remembered Minerva's instructions, but faced with Maddox's fearful aura, she felt weak and slightly guilty. She subconsciously glanced in the direction of the lounge.

She then said in a quiet voice, "Minerva told me to let you know to wait for her downstairs. She will be there in five minutes."

"Five minutes?" Maddox narrowed his eyes. Vera felt that she was treading in dangerous waters. "I've already given her so much time and she still wants to bargain with me?" He sneered.

Hearing his cold sneer, Vera gulped in fear.

That man was too handsome. Fortunately, she had already fallen in love with Quill!

"Minerva said that she would be downstairs in five minutes. Please trust her for once," Vera said.

It seemed that Minerva hadn't taken

Maddox's words seriously.

Huh.

The darkness in Maddox's eyes grew. Then, he looked away and fixed his gaze on the door of the lounge.

Vera's face changed and she felt all her muscles tighten.

What was he looking at? Could it be that he wanted to go to the lounge?

While she was still thinking, Maddox started heading towards the lounge door.

"President Yardley!" Vera called out nervously. Her face turned pale and she jumped up from her seat. In the next second, she stepped forward and blocked Maddox's way.

"What are you trying to do?"

Maddox looked at Vera, who was standing in front of him, and frowned.

"Get out of the way."

"No, I can't!" Vera stammered and put her arms up to block him. She promised Minerva that she would try to keep her secret as long as possible. If Maddox rushed in at that time, she would not be able to explain it to Minerva.

Maddox frowned even more. He looked at Vera sharply.

Why was Vera so anxious? It was as if she was afraid that he would barge into the lounge.

Was there something in the lounge that he shouldn't know about?

As that thought came into his mind, Maddox suddenly became gloomy. He warned coldly, 'TH give you one last chance. Get out of the way."

His cold gaze caused Vera's legs to tremble. However, she had already promised to help Minerva, thus, she would help her until the end. She firmly stood her ground and said, "Minerva asked me to convey this message to you. She will definitely be down in 5 minutes."

"Five minutes? Ah!" Maddox sneered, "Then I'll go into the lounge and wait for her for five minutes."

Vera was still in his way. He started growing impatient and he stared at her sharply, "Are you going to move out of my way or not?"

Vera fell silent.

She gulped and her pupils constricted with fear.

Click!

At that moment, the door of the lounge opened and Minerva walked out with an unamused expression on her face.
