Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Vera was taken aback.

Push her into the sea? She didn't dare to do so.

If Lauren didn't know how to swim, she would have to jump into the water to save her. More importantly... Vera didn't know how to swim.

But if she didn't save Lauren and let her die, she would be accused of murder.

Vera intended to help her, not harm her. It was not a crime she could shoulder.

Even if Lauren had other intentions, Vera didn't want to take revenge. At most, she would not contact Lauren until her problem from earlier was over.

"The woman looked rather mature, and her eyes were full of anger when she left. You and your husband should be careful."

"Yeah, keep an eye on your husband. They always fall for these types of women, so you have to keep an eye open."

The crowd surrounded Vera. She was so awkward that she could only smile. "Thank you, I know."

Everyone gradually left. Vera was embarrassed to go back to Quill.

Because... she had lied just now.

She and Quill were truly not married. They hadn't even been in love for a long time, not to mention getting married. She pretended to be Mrs. Hanover and lied and even put on an act when she fought Lauren. Would Quill... think that she was a scheming woman?

Vera was very regretful at that moment. She shouldn't have done that.

Just as Vera was feeling uncertain, she felt someone gazing at her.

"Why aren't you coming over? How long are you going to stand there? If the boat sets sail, you will lose your balance."

She blushed and lowered her head like a loser when she heard Quill's voice. She walked slowly toward him.

Quill had left the inner seat for her.

However, Vera didn't dare walk in, so she sat outside. Before her body touched the seat, Quill pulled her onto his lap.
