Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

After a while, Quill raised his head again and spoke in a lukewarm tone.

"You've been working hard for the past few days."

Vera was somewhat flattered and shook her head. "Not at all. It's just... I want to see Minerva, is that okay?"

Although her Prince Charming was very important... close friends were more important than that.

To Vera, Minerva still came first.

"Let's go."

When Vera was taken to Minerva's ward, Juliette was taking care of her. When Juliette saw her coming, the expression on her face changed slightly. "Vera? Have you finished handling the affairs in Hidalgo?" "Yes, everything has been dealt with. I heard that Minerva has a fever?"

They were afraid to wake Minerva, so they deliberately lowered their voices as they spoke. Juliette nodded.

"Yes, it's a high fever, and she's pregnant, so she can't be prescribed medication anyhow. The doctor recommended physically cooling her off."

A moment later, Vera stepped forward and took the towel from Juliette's hand. She said softly, "Let me do it. I used to take care of her when she was sick. I know some of her habits." As long as it would help Minerva recover, Juliette would naturally accept. She quickly handed the towel to Vera.

It was Vera's turn to take care of her.
