It did not matter if he found his other half or not?

Minerva actually did not believe him. That was because she still remembered what happened that night while they were overseas.

Vera drank until she was drunk. That night, she had a fever.

She had clearly heard what he had said to Vera outside the room.

At that time, judging by his actions and tone, it was obvious that he had fallen in love with Vera. However, after that night, it seemed like nothing happened between them. He also abruptly left. After they returned to the country, neither one contacted each other.

Minerva could feel that he had feelings for Vera, but why didn't he want to give it a try? She was confused by this.

What exactly happened?

She moved her lips, but Maddox's words rang in her ears.

"We don't even spend much time together. Why do you still want to meddle in other people's affairs?"

She swallowed back the words that were at the tips of her tongue.

Forget it. She had already promised Maddox that she would not interfere with this matter. She was not going to say anything.

She had promised him that she would meet up with him in five minutes. Thus, she decided to call it a night and told Quill, "It's alright. Since you've already made up your mind, I'll stop talking about it. Maddox is still waiting for me downstairs. I'm going to head home now."

"Go on." He nodded.

She turned around. She could not help but turn back around to look at him after taking a couple of steps. She looked as if she wanted to say something but stopped on a second thought.

"Quill, did you really ask me to come over this evening just to have dinner with you?"

He, who was still lightly tapping his fingers on the table, suddenly paused. He looked up at her and said in a gentle voice.

"Yes, what else?"
