Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Minerva would misunderstand...

This sentence repeatedly appeared in Vera's mind.

She couldn't think of anything else.

How could it be possible? She must have been mistaken.

She was trying her best to comfort herself, but Quill had observed that her face had turned pale as if she had heard something devastating.

In the past when he rejected her, she did not look as upset as she was now.

As he remembered what had happened, he realized that it was very likely that she had misunderstood what he had just said.

Regardless of whether it was necessary for him to know, he still asked her with a frown, "What are you thinking?"

Clearly, it would have been better if he hadn't asked. His question made Vera feel guilty. She bit her lower lip and tried to suppress the tumbling emotions in her heart.

"You... said just now that... Minerva will... misunderstand. What do you mean by that?" Vera stuttered.

She bit her lower lip nervously.

Upon hearing this, Quill frowned.

She had indeed misunderstood what he meant.

Fortunately, he tried to clarify what he meant.

Quill shifted the bag in his hand to his other side and said indifferently, "Minerva is my only family member. If there is any progress in my love life, she would definitely be the one who will care about it the most. Since you're her good friend, I don't want her to misunderstand that there's something between us, or even think of a way to set us up."

With this explanation, she would definitely be able to understand, wouldn't she?

After listening to him, Vera breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she felt as if there was a huge hole in her heart.

Fortunately, things were not as she expected.

It's just that... Quill really didn't have any feelings for her at all. He was afraid that Minerva would try to set them up again.

She lowered her eyes slowly, and she felt as if all her energy had left her.

"Alright, I understand. I'll go buy a coat now, and I'll return this back to you."
