Female Novel
Chapter 367
"Let's ignore her. I think she's mentally not right."
"I also think so. She said that she was not going to go with us yet she's still staring at him. And now,she even asked us if someone had walked past her. Is something wrong with her brain?"
Several girls walked away while complaining about Vera.
Vera stood at the same spot for a long time before reacting. Then, she looked in the direction thatMaddox had disappeared earlier. She realized that he had entered a car so she carefully checkedout the car's number plate. The car seemed to be from North City.
It turned out that she didn't see it wrongly, nor did she have an illusion. It was true that she had raninto him.
Fate....
It really was a wonderful but terrible thing.
Vera's face turned pale again, and then she quickly turned and left the place.
After Minerva returned to the car with Beanie, he fell asleep in her arms with his little handswrapped around her waist.
That was a habit of Beanie's. Every time he was out, and if he wanted to sleep, he would definitelyhold Minerva tightly with his hands, as if he was afraid that she would suddenly disappear. Minervastroked his head and leaned against the chair to rest.
She didn't know how long they would have to stay there either.
Just as she was wondering about this, her phone vibrated. Minerva took it out and glanced at it. Itwas a message from Quill.
"Where are you now?"
Minerva immediately became angry when she saw that it was Quill, so she replied.
"Thanks to you, we are now trapped on the highway."
"What's going on?"
Quill replied quickly. Through those words, Minerva could almost imagine him holding the phonewith a serious frown.
Minerva quickly sent him a message before he called her.
"Beanie has fallen asleep."
The other side paused for a while, only then did he reply a moment later.
"How did you know I was going to call?"
"Of course, I am your sister. A car exploded in front of us, and the police are handling it. We've beenhere for a long time."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll pick you up right
away."
Minerva could almost see that Quill was going to leave the house without hesitating. Therefore, shequickly sent another message.
"You don't have to come to pick me up. We're departing soon."
However, the other party did not reply. Minerva felt a little helpless. Perhaps, he was alreadypreparing to leave at this time.
Ping!
At this time, Vera came back. She opened the door and sat inside, the cool breeze outside flowingin. Minerva subconsciously bent forward to block the cool air from Beanie.
"Here you are," Minerva said softly.
Vera was badly frightened just now, so her face was still pale at that moment. After she and Minervalooked at each other, she just nodded dully as if she did not realize the paleness on her face at all.
Minerva looked at her and was stunned for a moment. "What's wrong?"
"Ah?" Vera's voice was a bit loud. After that, she realized that her voice might disturb Beanie. Shequickly reached out to cover her mouth, shook her head, and whispered, "Nothing."
"Nothing?" Minerva looked at her evasive eyes and knew that something must have happened. Sheraised her eyebrows and said, "Your face is as pale as a ghost, and you still say that nothing iswrong?"
Hearing this, Vera quickly reached out and covered her face.
Was her face very pale? Oh, no.
Vera quickly took out a mirror and took a look. Sure enough, she realized that the look on her facewas very pale, so she quickly reapplied some make up. Minerva, who was beside her, said in a low
voice, "No need to fix it. Your eyes have betrayed you. Tell me, what happened? You have been alittle strange since just now. What's wrong?"novelbin
Vera's hand paused. After a while, she closed the make up box and looked at Minerva. She saidseriously, "Actually, my stomach hurts. I want to go to the toilet!"
Minerva was speechless.
"But would there be a toilet in such a barren place? I can only endure it so that's why I am in coldsweats now."
Minerva was speechless.
"Ah, I really want to go to the toilet." Vera touched her cheek and smiled drily. Only God knew whata lie she had told and how panicked she was in order to hide her own emotions.
Fortunately, her prince charming was not in the car, otherwise... she absolutely could not say thosewords.
Thinking of that, Vera pursed her lips with a forced smile.
Minerva was speechless. For a moment, she could not tell whether Vera was telling the truth or not.After a moment, she asked again, "Flow are you now? Can you bear it?"
"Of course." Vera nodded forcefully. "I suppressed it."
Minerva was silent for a while before she suddenly said, "I think you should stop cooking in thefuture." Vera asked, "Why?"
"I can't look you in the eye anymore after this conversation tonight."
Vera was speechless.
More than ten minutes later, the cars on the highway started slowly moving forward. It seemed likeeverything was sorted out.
As the car slowly drove forward, Vera became nervous again. She leaned over the window andlooked at the cars around her. Would they bump into Maddox?
She did not think so.
However, she was still very worried. It was still a long way to North City. If she and Minerva wentsomewhere else, it would be fine. However, they were all heading to North City. Although Vera didnot understand why Maddox would appear in San Novia for no reason, she was really afraid ofbringing up Minerva's sad memories.
Therefore, she didn't dare to tell Minerva about running into Maddox.
"What's wrong? You can't hold it in anymore?"
A faint voice came from beside her. Vera turned around and saw Minerva looking at her with a faintsmile on her face. Her cold eyes were like a frozen lake, as if Minerva could see through her.
Vera suddenly felt that she had made a fool of herself by saying what she said just now. In fact,Minerva probably already knew her thoughts. However, that did not stop her from continuing to playdumb.
Anyway, Minerva could not possibly relate the strangeness she felt about that person either. Shesimply closed her eyes and sat by the side. Vera didn't reply to Minerva's words, nor did shecontinue to pretend.
She didn't want to talk about it, and Minerva didn't force her either.
After all, everyone had their own secrets. Vera would just guard her little secrets.
At first, the road was crowded, but soon, it became smoother. The car was driving very fast in thedark. Slowly, Minerva also felt tired. Just then, Vera's voice sounded.
"You can sleep for a while. I'm not sleepy after the nap just now. I'll stay awake. Besides, Nash ishere too."
"Mm." Minerva nodded. Then, she quickly fell asleep leaning against the car seat.
Soon, her breathing became even.
Vera turned her head and looked at Minerva's sleeping face. The expression on her face changed alittle.
Ah, she hoped that they would not meet Maddox this time. Otherwise... she really would not knowwhat to do.
Perhaps, Minerva would be the most helpless person.
After all, that was the person who had hurt her very deeply, but... at the same time, he was also theman whom Minerva had been deeply in love with.
