The mother and son fed the cat downstairs, and the cat rubbed its head against Minerva's palm intimately. It probably knew that it was dirty, so it didn't dare to rub against other places.

When Beanie reached out to touch it, it did not resist too much. It gently allowed him to pet its head.

"Mommy, the cat is so obedient and the kitten is so pitiful. Why don't we raise them?"

Minerva thought the same, so she nodded and said, "Okay, let's take care of them, but it's too late today, so we'll have to wait until tomorrow. When the time comes, we'll put the cats in a box and send them to the vet for a check-up. After that, we'll bring them home."

"Alright."

Soon, the two of them returned upstairs and the big cat also went back into the grass.

After returning upstairs, Vera had already prepared dinner, so the four of them gathered together to eat.

During the meal, the atmosphere was a bit subdued. Because of the little relationship between Vera and Quill, Vera felt a little conscious and she didn't dare to raise her head to look at him. She felt that she could see his lips as soon as she looked up and could even imagine their softness.

Thinking of this, Vera had to lower her head to eat, while chastising herself inwardly at the same time.

The tension between Minerva and Quill was probably because of Maddox.

Because of the previous incident, she felt that there was a little gap between them, so the meal was also full of misgivings.

Quill, on the other hand, was very calm.

He tasted a dish; it didn't taste bad.

He tried another and also felt that it was not bad.

He and Beanie shared their opinions. Minerva and Vera looked at each other in speechless despair.

After the meal, Minerva thought that the tension between her and Quill would be gone.

"I'm going to clean up the dishes," Minerva said. When she put down the plate, she stood up to clear the dishes. Vera also hurried to help. The two of them cleaned up and went into the kitchen together. As soon as Minerva brought the dishes into the kitchen, the mobile phone in her pocket vibrated.

She put down the plates and cutlery, washed her hands and took out her mobile phone to have a look.
