Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 989

At this very moment, Vera was hiding in her room. She didn't even dare to breathe.

She hoped that Minerva and the others would not find out anything about the kiss that she had with Sam. If they did, she really... Didn't know how to face Quill anymore.

Vera leaned against the door and tried to hear what was going on outside. However, she couldn't hear anything, probably because her room was some distance away or the door was soundproof.

She used all her might but was only able to tell that people were talking.

However, she couldn't hear clearly what they were saying.

Vera was anxious and angry. What was wrong with Sam? Why did he suddenly kiss her?

Although... it was just a peck on her lips.

But, later on, he seemed to have...

Thinking of this, Vera felt that her face grew hot.

Vera's heart was still pounding madly even though there was no longer any noise outside. She wanted to know if Quill followed the others back but at the same time, she was afraid of going out.

Just when Vera was about to break down from her nervousness, a series of knocks sounded on her door.

Vera's neck tingled and her body tensed up as she heard the knocks. She didn't dare to make any sound.

Who was it?

Who was it that was knocking on her door at this time?

"They don't know. Don't worry."

Just as Vera was puzzled over who it was, she heard a familiar voice from outside her door.

That was... Sam's voice!

Vera calmed down for a moment and opened the door. Sure enough, she saw Sam standing outside the door. She blinked her eyes and asked, "Are you sure the others don't know anything?"

Sam pressed his lips together and nodded faintly.

"Then... Did Quill come back?"

"Yeah."

Vera wanted to look for Quill, but if she went to him in her current state... he would definitely...

"If you want to see him, then go." Sam interrupted her hesitation. "He should be leaving soon."

Hearing this, Vera's face immediately dropped.

She immediately turned around to pack her bags, but suddenly she thought of something and stopped.

Sam looked at her with a slight frown.

"What's wrong?"

"Forget it," Vera lowered her eyes and stared at her toes helplessly. "I think what you said was right. There should be an extent to flattering myself. He doesn't like me anyway. If I continue to get close to him, he'll only hate me more."

Since he was about to leave, she had better not humiliate herself in front of him anymore.

Sam was at a loss for words.

Even though he said them in a fit of anger, it was exactly how he felt.

After some silence, Sam explained softly, "I said it for a reason. I just don't want the woman I love to get hurt. I didn't mean to belittle you."

Vera froze in place. She turned her head and looked at Sam in astonishment.

"You... What did... You just say?"

The woman he loved?

Did she hear it wrong?

Sam... Was he expressing his feelings to her?

Sam just smiled when he saw the doubt in her eyes. He then nodded and said, "You didn't hear it wrong. I do like you."

Vera was speechless. "How could it be?" She covered her mouth and took two steps back, shaking her head in disbelief. "Didn't you deny it when I asked you in the kitchen before?"

Vera believed him because she knew that Sam would not lie to her as he was an honest and upright man.

So... she truly felt that Sam did not like her.

But now? He was saying that he loved her. What was going on?
