Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Why?!

Why would something so awkward and embarrassing happen?!

Why did she not put a filter over her mouth? Why? Why?! Vera was filled with awkwardness and humiliation. Perhaps it was due to this overwhelming emotion that she lost her normal sense of composure. She sat upright there, motionless.

"Ahem..." Minerva let out an awkward cough as she sat by her side.

Minerva didn't expect Vera to say such a bold statement after being agitated by her. It didn't matter if there were just the two of them, but...

Who would've thought the office door would open at that moment? Not only had Quill returned, but he also brought a few senior managers with him.

Minerva felt that this was probably the most awkward moment in Vera's life.

Nothing else would beat this!

She coughed a few more times awkwardly and smiled. She then stood up and said to Vera, "You are quite ambitious. I have high hopes for you; keep it up. I'll make a move now."

After that, she walked to the entrance of the office quickly. She made eye contact with Quill.

Quill could see the ridicule in Minerva's eyes. He felt nothing but helplessness in his heart.

"Quill, I'll come over again tonight. Let's have dinner together."

"Sure."

No matter how awkward it was, Quill already got over it. He naturally accepted his sister's invitation.

After Minerva left, the senior managers who were shocked by Vera's bold statement responded in hindsight.

"Seems like President Hanover has something else to deal with. Why don't we discuss this matter some other day?" One of them laughed and suggested.

"Yeah. President Hanover, we'll continue the discussion amongst ourselves first."
