"But... Can you really win my Uncle's heart?"

Beanie was highly doubtful that she would succeed. Vera stared at him and couldn't help but reach out to rub his soft cheeks.

"What are you talking about? Aren't I going to succeed with your help? As long as you are willing to help, I am definitely able to win Quill."

Beanie blinked his dark eyes, and they were clear enough to see all the emotions in it.

"Alright, we're almost at your uncle's company. Just remember to help me."

On the other end.

When Maddox heard that Minerva had arranged for Vera to pick Beanie up, the car did not turn around. Instead, it headed directly in the direction of Ocean Villa.

After returning back to the country, Minerva only came here once.

Back then, she and Maddox had yet to reconcile. The reason she came to the villa was because she had received a request for a design layout.

She didn't expect... time to pass so quickly.

The sea breeze at night brought a chill to her body. She sat on a wooden bench in her pajamas and curled up into a ball as she gazed at the moonlight reflected on the sea's surface. She felt her heart calm down.

The cool night and the sea breeze were calming, but if the waves were stirred up, it would be extremely turbulent.

As the sea breeze blew, she felt a little chilly. Subconsciously, she hugged her arms tightly and curled her body into a ball.

However, the chill did not subside. The sea breeze was more chilly than the surrounding temperature of the city. Just as she was about to get up and head back to her room, a tall figure sat down beside her. Shortly after, a warm coat covered her body.

Minerva glanced sideways at Maddox, who had just taken a shower. He sat beside her. His skin was a little red from the hot water, and his thin lips were still tightly pursed. There were still water droplets dripping down from his hair.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but furrow her brows.
