Hearing that, Vera immediately raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "Do you need to be this realistic? Even if I know that I will grow old, it's not up to you to talk about it. Beanie, you cannot do this to me right after eating my fish and chips. Don't you want me to cook for you in the future?"

Feeling that his future meals were threatened, Beanie immediately changed his tone, "I was wrong. Auntie Vera, you will still be a beauty even when you are old."

Those words were very pleasing to Vera, and only then did she nod her head in satisfaction.

"I'll forgive you then, and I'll still make you fish and chips next time."

She didn't notice that Beanie covered his chest with his hands when he said this, as if his conscience was hurt.

Seeing that, Minerva reached out to pinch Beanie's cheek and said in a low voice, "Naughty boy."

That night, the three of them packed up their belongings and got into the car sent by Quill before heading to North City.

Vera was Minerva's assistant, so of course she would also follow her. Although it was a little strange for her to do so, she did not care much.

Vera's idea was that it was too lonely for her to stay alone in that apartment hence she wanted to go with them. If worse came to worst, she would say that Beanie liked to eat her cooking and she was there to cook for him.

Thinking of this, Vera's heart was filled with joy.

Meanwhile, Maddox was heading back to North City.

Abigail came out to see him off. "Are you sure you don't want to stay here for two more days? You've been driving for so long to get here and now you're leaving after only two days?"

Maddox heard her and glanced at her unhappily.

"I still have work to do."

"Is work more important than your aunt? Ah, what an unfilial child. Go, go ahead. Drive carefully."
