The Hanover family.

Minerva returned home shortly after and bumped into Quill, who was about to leave the house.

"I thought you were going to stay in the company for the whole day again.11

Quill said in a cold voice and he did not look pleased.

Minerva was taken aback for a moment before she went up to him and said with a smile, "How could that be? I promised you that I would take a good rest at home. I won't eat my words. It's just that I ran into a client when I was about to leave the office just now. I went back into the office to discuss some matters with him for a while and returned home right away after we've reached an agreement."

"What if the both of you couldn't reach an agreement?"

Minerva uttered, "Quill?"

Quill realized that he was being too stern with Minerva. He stretched out his hand and pinched his glabella. "Oh you, you are already a mother. Don't make me worry about you anymore."

His gesture made Minerva realize that Quill was totally worn out. In the past, he had silently shouldered the responsibility to take care of her.

But now, Minerva came to realize that Quill was not young anymore, yet he still had not...

As that thought crossed her mind, she looked at the floor and said softly, "Quill, I know that you've put a lot of effort into searching for my whereabouts. You want to make up for the grievances I've suffered over the years. But you've done so much for me throughout these five years. That's enough. From now on, don't you think you have to think about yourself more?"

Quill was surprised, "Minerva?"

"You need to find a partner. You can't be taking care of me all the time. Are you interested in anyone?"

Quill then understood her intentions of wanting to be his matchmaker, but he was not interested. He creased his brows and said, "Let's not worry about this for now. I still have some matters to attend to at work Go get some rest for now."

Quill walked away after saying that. Minerva stood still and watched him leave.
