Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 708

Hearing this, Vera was so excited that she almost flew up.

"Quill... Is he caring about me? If he didn't care about me, why would he notice the dark circles around my eyes?" She thought to herself.

When she was excited, Vera had forgotten that her dark circles were so terrible that they could be noticed at a glance. The only thing on her mind was that Quill cared about her.

Thinking of this, she quickly turned around. "I'm fine. It's just that I didn't sleep well last night..."

After that, she suddenly realized that even Quill asked her this question. Didn't this mean that her dark circles were very serious?

After realizing it, she covered her eyes with her hands and asked in a low voice, "My dark eye circles... Did I look really ugly?"

He was speechless.

Looking at the upset girl in front of her, he was at a loss for words for a moment and didn't know what to say. Seeing that he didn't answer, she became gloomy again.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked this. Then I... I'll go back first."

After that, she didn't wait for Quill to answer and ran away immediately.

After running some distance, she was still buzzed. She clutched her hot cheeks and felt very happy.

Quill had given her a drumstick previously, and now he asked her about her dark circles.

It meant that her efforts had not been in vain. He could still notice her.

As long as he could notice her, she would keep working hard. When she worked harder to get his attention, it would be easier for her to get close to him.

The more she thought about it, the more hopeful she felt.

She played with her fingers and felt very happy in her heart.

However, when she saw Minerva's listless appearance, Vera instantly felt guilty. She was still upset, so she couldn't be happy alone. Hence, she ran over to accompany her.

As time passed by, the laughter of friends and relatives seemed to fade away gradually and disappeared. Minerva sat there as if she was going to go numb. She did not move at all.

After some time, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Quill, who was not far away from her.

"Quill."

"What's wrong?"

"Did you receive any news regarding Maddox's flight? Has he arrived at the airport?"

Upon hearing this, he took out her mobile phone and checked it. Then, he pursed his thin lips and said, "It shows that the flight landed half an hour ago."

"Half an hour ago?"

Minerva asked in a low voice.

Quill thought for a while. Then, he turned to Juliette beside him and said, "Please personally bring someone to check the flight status and see if you could contact him."

When Juliette heard these words, she felt that something wasn't right. She didn't dare to ask about it and could only quickly nod her head.

"Yes, Mr. Hanover, I'll go right now."

She quickly left. After she left, Minerva, who had been sitting there, couldn't restrain herself anymore. She got up directly from the wedding bed, and Vera quickly went up to help her.

"Minerva...¹ After she got out of bed, she dialed Maddox's cell phone number over and over again.

"Could it be... like what Sylvia said?"

Maddox... He did not really want to marry her. He was merely trying to make up for the mistakes he had made five years ago.

The day before the wedding, he felt that he didn't want to get married... Thus, he chose not to appear?

"Minerva?" Quill saw that something was wrong with her expression and went up to hold her shoulder. He said in a low voice, "Anyway, it's not time yet. You don't have to be nervous. Let's wait. Maybe he wants to give you a surprise."

After all, the man had done so many things for the wedding, and Quill, as her elder brother, had seen it with his own eyes. Nothing unexpected should happen.

However... Quill became more and more suspicious.

Before the wedding, Maddox gave him the contract. At that time, it seemed that he was very determined, but now? Would he refuse to let the wedding happen because the contract would come into effect after he married

Minerva?

That was also possible!

However, Quill believed him. After all, this man was chosen by his younger sister. She believed that Minerva's judgment wouldn't be so bad as to be deceived by the same man twice in a row.

Minerva's mental state was not in complete chaos. Soon, she remembered what she had said to Quill before.

The reason for being separated from Maddox five years ago was that they didn't trust each other.

If she doubted Maddox at this moment merely because of Sylvia's words, wouldn't she be falling right into her trap?

So, no, she couldn't fall into her trap. She had to believe in Maddox and wait for him to come back here. If she couldn't wait here, then she would go to the hall to wait.

She believed that he would definitely appear!
