Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 657

Vera coughed lightly as she heard this and said, "I have already found a partner in crime; I won't fall behind."

"As long as you're confident. Remember to let the word out and hire an assistant soon."

"Well... Okay, the company is getting busier. I get dizzy every time you aren't around. We'd better hire one."

After they reached a consensus, Minerva thought of her own worries. She sat down in front of her desk and looked at Vera, who seemed to want to speak but stopped on a second thought.

"What's the matter with you? Just say what you want to say. Don't sit there and look at me like a resentful woman. Fortunately, I am a woman, or people will think that I am a heartless jerk."

Minerva was speechless.

Vera set down the documents in her hand to one side, then pulled a chair and sat down beside Minerva.

"Tell me, what are you upset about? Let me hear you out."

Minerva looked at her and said, "I haven't thought of a way to explain it to you yet."

Vera thought about what happened in the past few days and asked directly, "Did you get back together with him?"

Although she was a little embarrassed, Minerva bit her lower lip and nodded. Perhaps she was nervous so after she nodded, she asked a question.

"Am I being stupid? I made up my mind not to be with him again. After all, he hurt me before... But I..."

She looked down, carrying a bit of guilt, "I can't seem to control myself."

Vera was a little touched at how sad she was. She grabbed her hand and whispered, "What's wrong with that? Love is uncontrollable and you can't hide the feelings you have for someone. In the past five years, I have been by your side. Of course, I know that you have always had him in your heart, so I encouraged you to be with him. In fact, everyone's the same. When you really like someone, even if you know the path ahead won't be easy, you will still want to dive right in."

It was the same for her. Although she knew that Quill didn't like her, she couldn't give him up.

She knew that if she chose to give up, she would be hurt less.

However, all she had eyes for was Quill, as if he was the only man she could see.

What could she do? Should she give up on him and live alone for the rest of her life?

Vera knew she would never like anyone else as much as she liked Quill. After all, she had liked him for so long. So... While she still had a chance, she had to try her best.

Like a moth drawn to a flame.

This was purely instinctual.

Just like how Minerva liked Maddox, or how Maddox liked Minerva.

After five years, neither of them changed.

It was destiny.

"In fact, there's one thing I haven't told you all these years."

Minerva was silent for a long time before she spoke.

"What is it? What have you not told me?" Vera asked in confusion.

In fact, no one was really surprised by how similar Beanie and Maddox looked. After all, he and Minerva were married before. Everyone assumed the child she had after their divorce belonged to him.

However, Minerva didn't know anything about this. Sylvia tricked her previously, so she thought Benedict was the father.

Furthermore, Maddox did not know what happened on that rainy night, although the entire world knew the child belonged to him and Minerva.

The two of them were the only ones who were in the dark.

Now that Minerva knew the truth, there was only one person left who did not know; Maddox, who was the father.
