Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

"The Maxwell family had moved abroad by the time I grew up. We haven't been in contact for these years, let alone become my fiancee."

It was the first time Vera listened calmly to Quill's explanation after their breakup.

According to his explanation, there wasn't anything special between them, but why did Yulia say that she was his fiancee?

"Are you sure you two aren't engaged? She really isn't your fiancee?"

"An engagement isn't something trifle. If we are really engaged, do you think I won't keep that in mind?"

Suddenly, Vera was at a loss for words. Then, realizing something, she asked, "Then when I asked you why you didn't tell me this when you came to my place, you said you didn't know how to tell me. Weren't you talking about this?"

Quill broke into laughter after recalling their fight, "I thought you were asking why I don't celebrate my birthdays."

Vera was rendered speechless at that.

So her anger was all for nothing?!

They had misunderstood each other.

"Can you make your questions more specific next time? You were so vague then; how would I know what you were referring to?"

Hearing a hint of blame in his tone, Vera blinked and asked, "So you're saying I'm petulant, aren't you? Why would she say you two are engaged if it isn't real? Are you sure you haven't forgotten something?" "She said it?" Quill asked in astonishment, "She said she's my fiancee?"

"Something like that," Vera pursed her lips and said unhappily. "But she didn't intend to tell me in the beginning. She only admitted it after one of your employees told me."

Quill was level-headed, so he could guess what Vera had been through from her words.

Vera thought she was the only one kept in the dark about their engagement. Moreover, she was already upset about being dumped during the birthday celebration. Unable to accept the double whammy, she questioned him but ended up having misunderstood him.

Thus the breakup happened.

Just about anyone would've lost their mind having faced such a situation.

Not to mention the amount of love Vera had for him. Quill's heart ached when he thought of the tears Vera had shed in the past few days. He put a hand on the back of her head as he pulled her into his arms. "There is nothing between us. Have you forgotten you're the one who messed with me in the first place? I've already told you, you're my one and only, and that's never going to change."
