Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 1268

Quill was late.

Precisely, he was 20 minutes late.

The first thing he said when he entered the room was.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Minerva couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. She knew Quill well that he would be always punctual.

But he was 20 minutes late this time. He was probably really caught up with something.

"Uncle Quill, were you stuck in traffic?" Beanie suddenly asked.

Quill glanced at Beanie and said lightly, "It's due to other reasons. I didn't know you guys would all come. " He looked at Maddox and Jelly Bean, who was in his arms.

They each sat by Minerva's side as if they were afraid that she would run away.

Quill sighed deeply when he saw this scene.

He used to think Minerva would bring Beanie up on her own. To his surprise, after such a long time, she even had her second child.

It was good too.

"Quill."

As he was deep in thought, a soft, trembling voice sounded.

Quill looked in the direction of the sound and saw a well-dressed and gentle woman looking at him. Her eyes were filled with excitement.

At first he couldn't recognize her, but after some time, old memories returned, the figure looked even more familiar.

Quill's cold gaze softened a little, and he said, "Hi, Yulia. How are your parents?"

Yulia didn't know how to describe such an emotion meeting her childhood friend. She had too many things to tell; however, she couldn't say a word at that moment. Besides, she had gone through too many obstacles just to find Quill. When she heard what he said, Yulia couldn't help wanting to cry.

Although she tried very hard to suppress her emotions, meeting the person she longed to see after all the hardships and difficult days she went through, she couldn't help but start to lose control.

The atmosphere became slightly odd.

Yulia immediately turned around and wiped her tears away. She only turned back after some time.

Her eyes were still slightly red after crying. It was also covered with a layer of moisture from the tears. She then smiled and said softly, "Sorry, it has been too long since I last met an old friend, so I couldn't control my emotions just now. Hope you guys don't mind that."

Yulia even looked over at Minerva and the rest as she said this. It wasn't only just for Quill to hear.

Minerva shook her head while smiling.

Quill fell silent for a moment. He picked up a napkin and went forward, "Wipe your tears with this."

Yulia apologized and took over the napkin.

Beanie felt uneasy when he saw this.

Although he knew that she didn't do anything, she just couldn't control her emotions and cried a little. However, Beanie was upset when his uncle gave her a napkin.

Even though he didn't say anything, he met Minerva's gaze when he turned around.

Based on the relationship between the Maxwell family and the Hanover family, as long as they asked, Hanover Cooperation wouldn't sit by and not do anything.

Hearing that, Yulia lightly explained, "It wasn't a small number, it was too much. It's a trap. We already fell into it. How could we get others involved? My dad had always been a strong and proud man. Even if he fell into a trap, he wouldn't ask for help either."

Quill remembered how Mr. Maxwell was always serious and strict; he didn't look like a friendly person. However, Quill knew that he was a very respectful elder.

Although he was strict, he was righteous. He would never show favoritism, and he taught Yulia well.

If he were to ask for help, Quill would never reject him.

Quill had no idea such a big issue occurred. He guessed that Mrs. Maxwell had ordered not to tell anyone.

Perhaps that was why Yulia looked for them after her parents passed away.

Quill had mixed feelings.

"You don't have to overthink. My dad has always been like this. His last words were that we should never beg others; we have to take on everything on our own. Only by doing so can we really get back up. Sadly, he was never able to get back up again."

Yulia couldn't hold back her tears. She wiped them away with a napkin.

Although she was crying, she still had a smile on her face, "So Quill, you don't have to feel bad. Even if the Maxwell family is gone, I will still try my best to get back up."

Quill did not say anything. He only nodded with agreement.

"Actually, I wanted to look for you a long time ago. It was just that the misfortune happened too soon. It has been a long time since all of that happened."

Yulia only had the opportunity to come out after she settled her matters at home and after her parents had passed.
