Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

"It's really not necessary. Thank you," Vera rejected her awkwardly, and then bowed her head and stopped talking to her. Obviously, she was shy because of this matter. "You're so shy. I was only asking you about a small matter, and you're blushing this much. How will you pursue President Hanover like this?"

Vera heard her and looked up into Juliette's eyes before she said, "Actually... I wasn't shy at all back then when I pursued him. I should have been shy but..." Perhaps she was fearless in the beginning, and she thought that she could give him all until she was rejected many times by him. Then, she gradually lost hope.

It was normal to be shy, but she was brave back then and she did what her heart wanted to do.

It was nothing like how she was now, constantly worried and afraid, and what she wanted would always be put last.

"But what?"

"It's nothing." Vera shook her head. It was obvious that she felt demotivated all of a sudden. Juliette noticed her head hanging low and patted her on her shoulder. "It's alright. The past is in the past and right now, you're here. The future is unknown and there are many opportunities waiting for you."

Her words of encouragement were strong, and Vera repeated them in her heart continuously. She finally agreed and smiled.

"That's right!"

The young woman in front of Juliette had regained her spirit. "That's right. This is how energetic you should be when you attend the banquet later."

"Thank you, Secretary Sharpio."

Vera's skin was great, and the make-up artist completed her job smoothly. Then, she exclaimed.

"Your skin is great. I've been a makeup artist for many years, and I've only seen a few girls with good skin. It's effortless to put makeup on, and I don't have to waste so much effort on applying a thick layer of powder."

Vera smiled shyly at the makeup artist as she complimented her.

The more the makeup artist looked at Vera, the more she thought that she was adorable. She couldn't help but rub her on her head, but she realized that she had just done her hair, and she'd have to fix it if she messed it up, so she stopped herself.

By the time they left, night had fallen, but the city was not drowned in darkness. Instead, it was lit up by thousands of lights.

"It's great, you look amazing tonight. It's official, you're going to be the center of everyone's attention tonight."

Vera was already nervous, and she gasped as she heard Juliette's words.

"What? The center of attention?"

"That's right." Juliette winked at her through the rearview mirror. "Don't you think you look good in this outfit?"
