Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

"You two have been together for such a long time; don't you have the least bit of confidence?" Minerva wondered.

"It's not that I'm unconfident. I just don't want to be self-centered like I used to. I'll get disappointed that way. Now, I just hope for the worst so that I can feel surprised."

Hearing that, Minerva fell silent. She did not expect Vera's character to be honed into this. She stared at her for a long time before she suddenly stretched out her arms and hugged Vera's shoulders.

"Silly girl, you can love someone to no end, but you can't lose yourself loving him. Even if Quill is my brother, I have to tell you this. You shouldn't be so lowly in love. Both of you are equals in a relationship. You like him, and he likes you. But if he doesn't like you as much as you do, then you better don't offer him too much affection."

Otherwise, the person who gave the most would be hurt the worse.

Minerva knew this all too well.

Her words struck Vera. She patted Minerva's shoulder lightly, pretending to be relaxed.

"Don't worry; I won't lose myself. I'm just adjusting my lifestyle and mindset so that my future will be filled with surprises. Think about it, if the unexpected happens, I'll feel surprised, but what I expect doesn't come true, I'd feel depressed and find it hard to accept. I don't feel upset now because I've already anticipated the worst from the beginning. So even if that day really comes, I... It won't be hard for me to accept."

This was Vera's innermost thought. Minerva had to admit her words were quite reasonable.

Although it was somewhat pitiable, it would be full of surprises as well.

Perhaps, everyone had their way of living and choices. She shouldn't interfere too much.

With that thought, Minerva said, "Alright then. As long as you know what you're doing. Let's go see the doctor."

Vera nodded.

When the result came out, it showed that Vera was indeed pregnant.
