Chapter 441

His gaze made Minerva's heart skip a beat, yet she quickly regained her senses. She thenstraightened her clothes and was about to leave.

Maddox's deep voice sounded from the back.

"Are you going to abandon me after you used me?"

Minerva halted her footsteps, gritting her teeth. She spoke clearly without turning around.

"Mr. Yardley, please understand this. I’m not using you, but you are pestering me, and I don't wantto collaborate with you because of this. You're right, I hate you and I do not wish to see youanymore. Thus, please don't appear in front of me again in the future. I hope that we will havenothing to do with each other and become strangers."

Strangers?

Maddox stared at the woman who stood upright.

She was firm and resolute when she spoke these words. It was obvious that she was serious aboutit.

She had despised him so much in the past five years.

Maddox's eyes dimmed at this moment. He merely looked at her without saying a word andsneered, "Am I a stranger?"

Minerva thought he had heard her clearly and walked out of the parking lot without saying anythingelse.

After that, she hailed a taxi at the roadside and went back to the Hanover family home.

The Hanover family.

"Auntie Vera, will Mommy come home today?" Beanie asked eagerly, holding Vera's hand.

Beanie was actually very dependent on Minerva because he had been with her since he was achild. She would always bring him wherever she went. She would assign someone to watch overBeanie and would go to pick him up as soon as she was done with work.

However, Beanie hadn't seen her for the past two days. Therefore, he missed Minerva badly.

"Don't worry. She told me that she will be back soon," Vera pinched Beanie's soft cheeks. "I didn'texpect that you would be so dependent on your mommy. You are a young man, isn't it such ashame?"

Vera wanted to take the opportunity to make fun of him. After all, this little one often ridiculed her.

Unexpectedly, Beanie rolled his eyes and said all of the sudden, "Auntie Vera, although I am ayoung man, I am still an immature kid."

"Pfft. Are you kidding me? An immature kid? Aren't you ashamed to say that?" Vera chuckled.

Beanie seemed sullen. He snorted and shook off Vera's hand, running into the house.

Quill came over at this moment. Beanie rushed over and hugged his thigh, saying in a childishvoice, "Uncle Quill, I saw your photos on Auntie Vera's phone just now."

Vera was rendered speechless.

She was struck by Beanie's words, and she was rooted to the spot in shock.

She looked at Quill in front of her, appalled, and then at Beanie's cunning look. She immediatelydeflated.

Wasn't his revenge coming too soon?novelbin

Beanie was a little troublemaker!

This brat!

When Quill's gaze swept over her, Vera blushed with embarrassment and explained in a hurry, "Mr...Mr. Hanover! What Beanie said is not true. I didn't keep your photos."

"Auntie Vera is talking nonsense. Not only does she keep photos of you, but there are also lots ofthem!"

Vera gnashed her teeth and glared at Beanie with menacing eyes.

Please stop talking. She was afraid that she would embarrass herself in front of her prince charmingif Beanie harped on this topic.

"Oh?"

In fact, Quill was not bothered by this. However, it seemed that Beanie had a good relationship withVera and wanted to tease her deliberately.

He would gladly partner with Beanie.

Quill had his eyes fixed on Vera's face as he asked.

"You've saved my photos? What kind of photos?"

Vera freaked out a little. Quinn cared about it? She thought that she could brush it off this time. Buteven if he asked about it, so what? She would never admit it!

"Mr. Hanover, you have really misunderstood me. I didn't save your photos. Beanie got it wrongbecause I saw your photos in the news, thus he thought that I saved them."

Yep, that was a good reason.

Did he believe what she said? He wouldn't make things difficult for her, would he?

"Uncle Quill, look!"

Beanie suddenly took a phone and browsed through the photo album. He then selected severalphotos.

Quill looked down at the pictures on the phone. It turned out to be his daily pictures.

Moreover, the entire photo album was full of his photos.

Vera stared at the phone. At first, she was still confused. She bit her finger and muttered, "Whydoes this phone look so familiar?"

After staring carefully at it for a while, Vera suddenly realized that it was her phone.

She quickly reached out to touch the phone in her pocket, only to find that her pocket was empty!

Ah! This brat Beanie, how did he get her phone without being discovered?

Little Devil!

Just as Vera was inwardly fuming, Quill turned to look at her all of a sudden.

Vera's calm immediately disappeared and she tensed up at once.

She couldn't resist grabbing the corner of her clothes with both hands on the sides. What shouldshe do? Quill knew that she had saved his photos on her phone. Would he think that she hadfeelings for him?

If he knew that she had romantic thoughts about him, would he despise her?

At the thought of this, Vera looked down and struggled in her words.

When Beanie saw that he had achieved his goal, he secretly laughed and ran away, feelingaccomplished.

Quill was still holding the phone, looking up at the woman standing not far away from him.

Vera was very petite. At this moment, she stood there helplessly, holding the hem of her clothes,like a lost little bunny.

Beanie was merely being mischievous. Quill felt bad about embarrassing Vera.

As he thought of this, he stepped forward and handed her the phone. "Here, your phone."

Vera lowered her head and looked at the pair of hands before her. Her heart began to tremble.

In the future... Would Quill be disgusted at her?

If that was the case, why shouldn't she take the opportunity to confess to him?

With this, Vera bit down on her lower lip hard and took a deep breath. Out of the blue, she lookedup and stared at Quill seriously.

After that, she said in desperation, "Now that you have seen it, I won't conceal it anymore. Quill, Ilike you!"

Quill was stunned for a moment. Looking at the pure innocent girl in front of him, he realized thatsomething went wrong.
