Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Minerva couldn't help but laugh, but her eyes began to turn red as well. Tears formed in her eyes and flickered as she looked at Vera.

She reached out her hand and pinched Vera's cheek. With a little effort, she saw Vera furrow her eyebrows in pain but she didn't make a sound.

"Did it hurt?" Minerva asked.

Vera pursed her lips, looked at her with a resentful look, and whispered, "Of course it does! Why did you pinch my face all of a sudden?"

"If it was painful, why didn't you voice out?" Minerva asked.

Vera was stunned for a moment. Then, she realized what Minerva was trying to do. She quickly slapped Minerva's hand away and turned around.

"You're so evil, Minerva! You're always setting me up when you know I'm not as smart as you!"

"How am I setting you up? All I did was pinch your face. You are the one who's not willing to say anything even if it hurts you."

Minerva spoke with more tears in her eyes. After Vera turned around, she felt that it was easier to speak her mind, so she didn't force her to turn and face her. "Do you understand what I'm trying to tell you? You have to voice out if you're in pain. If you don't do it, no one will ever know what you're going through. You told me you wanted to resign but you didn't tell me the reason you wanted to do so. When you found out about my condition, you offered to stay and help. Vera, we are best friends and we are like sisters to one another. We are supposed to support each other and it shouldn't always be you compromising for me. You will feel worn out this way."

Vera's shoulder moved gently but she didn't answer.

Minerva continued, "I know how you've been doing in the company recently."

"Minerva, I..."

Vera turned her head back around in a hurry. Minerva realized that Vera's eyes were red too. "Did she turn around because she was afraid for me to see her cry?" She thought.

"What a silly girl." Although tears welled up in her eyes, Minerva still forced herself to smile. "You don't have to explain. I know that you've been in a bad state recently and even though you tell me that you would try to adjust yourself, there are many things in life where you can't just force it. It takes time to heal. Since you want to resign, I will allow you to do so."
