Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 997

Sam looked at her with a tender gaze, which looked even more intense under the shine of the lights. His gaze was filled with his deep feelings towards her. Vera had never noticed it in the past but after he confessed his feelings towards her, she finally realized it.

She was startled and she took a few steps back.

Then, she turned around.

"Get out," she said.

"Fine, I'll go out since you hate it so much to be in the same space as me."

She didn't know that the moment she turned her back to him, the light in his eyes turned dim. He turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

Bang!

The kitchen door was closed and the surroundings turned peaceful. She turned back around slowly.

She looked at the door in a daze for a while then withdrew her somewhat helpless eyes.

Sam was great but when it came to love, things could not be forced, like how she couldn't force things with Quill either.

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and let out a long sigh. Then, she started preparing the vegetables.

After Minerva pulled Geoffrey out of the kitchen, he bombarded her with endless questions like a curious child, "Minny, you and Sebastian had a kid together? What does he look like? Is he in the house? Can I meet him? I can't believe it!"

He sounded so excited as if he was the father of her child. She couldn't help but furrow her eyebrows and asked, "Why are you being so excited?"

He realized that he was acting too thrilled. He rubbed his head in embarrassment with a laugh and said, "I'm just happy for my good friend, Sebastian. Moreover, I knew that you two had a past but I didn't know that you had a child together. How old is he?"

"He's five years old," she replied. She later corrected herself, "After this new year, he will be six years old."

After hearing the child's age, Geoffrey turned silent.

It took him a long time to find his voice again, his throat was dry.

"Six years old? Wow, that is unbelievable! Wait a minute..." He fumbled through the thoughts in his head, then continued with a surprised face, "Before this you told me that you and Sebastian were just about to plan for marriage, then he got into an accident. It hadn't been that long since you told me that. How could you have a child that's six years old?"

He started to visualize their story in his head and shocked himself. "Unless... the child is not Sebastian's?" He asked as he stared at her with his eyes wide open.

She was speechless.

She was amazed at his wild imagination.

She really wanted to ask him how he managed to come to that conclusion.

However, before she could open her mouth to explain, another voice rang through the room.

"Young Master Beanie is the child that Young Master Yardley and Mrs. Yardley had together in the past. Sir, there are things that you shouldn't make assumptions about."

She looked over and realized that Sam had walked out from the kitchen. Wasn't he supposed to help Vera? She wondered.

Geoffrey made eye contact with Sam then immediately narrowed his eyes into slits and looked at him from head to toe. Previously, he was still trying to figure out his identity, but after he opened his mouth to speak, he found his answer.

"So, you're Sebastian's subordinate."

Sebastian.

Sam knew that Maddox had changed his name to Sebastian after he moved here. He knew that Geoffrey was talking about him.

Sam didn't reply. Geoffrey retracted his gaze and said with a smile, "I really want to meet Sebastian's child. Should he call me Uncle Geoffrey then? Where is he, Minny?"
