Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 365

Beanie was considerate and he shook his head. "I'm not tired. You don't have to carry me."

Minerva's heart ached for him. She squatted down and hugged his little head. "Why don't you lean on me for a while then? I'm sorry, I didn't know something like this would happen."

She felt a little remorseful; she always felt that Beanie had to suffer a lot when he was with her.

Although that was not a big deal for Minerva, her heart ached when she saw Beanie. Perhaps... it was because she herself was also from an incomplete family, that's why she was a little sensitive.

"It doesn't matter. I'm not tired and there are so many people here. It's so lively."

Minerva did not say a word. She buried her head in Beanie's neck and closed her eyes.

She knew that Beanie had always been very sensible. Most of the time, he wouldn't throw a tantrum at her and he would even seek pleasure in the midst of hardship. Moreover, it was always him who comforted her. The more Minerva thought about it, the more sad she would be.

Vera looked down at them and also squatted down. "It's not a big deal. The police said that everything is fine. We can continue our journey after they deal with it or we can turn back. Alas, it's just that... it's late at night and I feel like I'm a little hungry. There seems to be something to eat in the car. Shall I go to get something for you too?"

Minerva came to her senses and said softly, "I don't need it. Just get some for Beanie."

"Wait a minute, Beanie. I will go and get you something to eat."

"Thank you, Auntie Vera."

Hence, Vera went to Nash for the key and went back to the car to take the things. Vera took some food and water and closed the door. When she turned back, she realized that everyone around her was looking in the other direction, so she couldn't help looking over.

Then, she saw a tall and straight figure standing on the other side.

The man's figure could not be clearly seen in the darkness, but the proportion of his figure looked really great.

With his back facing them, no one could see his face at all so they couldn't tell how handsome he was.

All of a sudden, the man turned around, and the handsome features of his face were particularly attractive in the night.

However, soon after, the man turned around again.

With just that glance, Vera was stupefied for a while.

It seemed that an old friend's face had appeared in her mind, but soon, Vera shook her head again.

"How is that possible? It's been a long time since that person appeared, and it's impossible for him to be here now."

Vera whispered to herself and then reached out to grab her own hair.

However, after the thought flashed across her mind, Vera couldn't help but look in the direction of the man, feeling a little lost.

If it was really him, would he come across them later? What would Minerva do if she really ran into him?

Thinking of that, Vera also became anxious.

"Auntie Vera, you're back," Beanie's voice stopped Vera's thoughts.

Vera came back to her senses and realized that she was already in front of Minerva and Beanie. It was probably because she was absent- minded, so Minerva looked at her with concern and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Vera was stunned for a moment and shook her head. "Nothing."

Then, she stood up and blocked Minerva's line of sight. With a fake smile on her face, she said, "I brought you some water, so have a little."

After that, Vera handed her and Nash a bottle of water each.

Nash took it and said with a smile, "Thank you."

"Well, okay." Beanie did not refuse as he was really sleepy.

Minerva squatted down and asked Beanie to lean against her back. Beanie obediently climbed on and hugged her neck. "Mommy, be careful."

Minerva first carried Beanie back to the car, and Nash followed her.

Vera did not follow them. "You go first. I'll stay here for updates. I'll meet you later."

"Okay, then."

Nash nodded and followed Minerva back.

After they left, Vera couldn't help looking in the direction of the man just now. Although he didn't look very familiar now, she could not forget his face that had given her a strange feeling.

In fact, Vera was quite scared. What should she do if she really met that person here?

Oh no, what would Minerva do?

As a result, Vera tried to calm herself down then moved forward. Her body was hidden behind the cars, while slowly approaching the man.

His side of the highway was rather quiet, but when everyone saw Vera approaching him, a few girls thought that she was going to flirt with him, so they couldn't help but follow her.

"Hey, are you going over to ask for his phone number? Let's go together then, everyone has a chance!"

Hearing this, Vera was speechless for a moment.

"No."

"Don't you want to? Then what are you doing here? Don't do that. Even if you admit it, we won't drive you away. We don't mind you going after him either. Besides, if there really is a chance, it'll be fair competition among us."
