Upon hearing the word "cheat", the corners of Minerva's mouth twitched. She then looked speechlessly at Vera.
"Can you please tell me what kind of absurd thinking you have?"
It was unbelievable that Vera actually thought that Maddox was cheating on her.
Under Minerva's contemptuous gaze, Vera covered her mouth with her hand. After a moment, she laughed awkwardly, "Well, you know, my brain circuits have always been a little strange. It's all because I'm a little stupid..."
"No matter how strange things may seem, you shouldn't jump to conclusions like that," Minerva thought to herself.
Vera realized that she had said something wrong. She made a gesture of zipping her mouth in front of Minerva, indicating that she would stop talking nonsense anymore.
As for Minerva, she knew her friend too well. Aside from the fact that she felt that Vera's thinking was a bit too far-fetched, she didn't feel that it was inappropriate and she wasn't angry at all.
She calmly thought about this matter.
Maddox definitely had something to hide from her. As for what it was, she did not know. However, it was definitely not a small matter for him to make up such an excuse.
She was hesitant about whether she should pretend that she didn't know, or should she confront him about it?
What could have happened that made him not want to see her?
Since she had not seen him, she had two guesses in her mind. One was good, the other was bad. However, she still felt that it would be the good one. After all, she did not wish for her man to do anything bad behind her back.
If she had seen Maddox and saw his condition, she would definitely stop him.
"Excuse me?"
Someone was tugging at her sleeve. Minerva came back to her senses and saw that Vera was trying to say something to her, but nothing was coming out.
"What's wrong?"
She asked, but Vera still didn't say anything. She just pointed to her mouth.
Minerva stared at her for a while. Suddenly, she remembered that prior to this, Vera made a gesture of zipping her mouth, and she didn't dare to sprout nonsense again. At this moment, she had something new to say?
"You mean... You want me to unlock it for you?" Minerva tilted her head and asked.
Vera nodded hard.
"Oh." She smiled faintly. "I'm not going to unlock your mouth. You should stay this way."
An anxious expression suddenly appeared on Vera's face, but Minerva calmly stood up. She stretched her body and said, "Hey, I've been sitting for a long time, and my legs are feeling a little uncomfortable. I'll go out for a walk."
When Vera heard that, she followed her out as she could not possibly let a pregnant woman go out alone.
As they were walking, she kept indicating to Minerva to unlock her mouth, but Minerva kept looking elsewhere and pretended not to notice what she was trying to do.
In the end, Vera couldn't stand it anymore. She burst out and roared at Minerva, "I've had enough!"
Minerva laughed and said, "You can't hold yourself back anymore?"
Vera was furious. "I'm going to suffocate to death if I keep going on this way! Minerva, I can't believe you can be so heartless! I've been trying to get your attention for so long, yet you're still adamant on ignoring me. If I was to really die, you won't have a sister-in-law in the future."
"It's not that I'm heartless," Minerva replied. "After all, you were the one who zipped your own mouth. Besides, how are you so sure that you can become my sister-in-law?"
"Well, anyway, I'll just do as I please! If ever the time comes when I really become your sister-in-law, let's see whether you'll still dare to treat me this way!"
