Female Novel
Chapter 465
Her words probably put him in a tight situation.
The man smiled awkwardly and said, "The fare doesn't matter. I happen to be delivering somethings to the supermarket in the city. It won't hurt to give you a ride. Get in the car."
Minerva smiled and said, "Thank you, sir."
With that, she opened the door of the front passenger seat and got in the truck.
Boris and his friend who were sitting in the car behind them were confused.
"What's going on? She refused you but chose a big truck instead? Boris, isn't she mocking you?"
"F*ck!" Boris was so angry that he slammed the steering wheel.
The truck left quickly after Minerva got on it. It drove all the way into the city. When Minerva reachedthe supermarket, the simple and honest middle- aged man refused to accept the fare.
"It was on the way. You don't have to be so polite."
In the end, Minerva stuffed two hundred dollars into the man's bag. After she sincerely thanked him,she left the supermarket.
The supermarket was not far from her company. Therefore, she could return to the company by taxi.
After returning to the company, Minerva went straight to the office and then shut herself up in theoffice. She was in a daze.
Her mind was filled with all that Maddox had told her.
She thought she had nothing to do with him anymore for the past five years. However, he suddenlytold her that they had never been divorced.
According to the law, she was still his legal wife.novelbin
Knock, knock...
A person suddenly knocked on the door of the office a few times. Minerva raised her head and sawthat the door was half open. Vera poked her head in and looked at her carefully.
As she knew that Minerva had just gone to see Maddox, Vera didn't dare to rush in like she usuallywould.
"Come in." Minerva suppressed her emotions and then smiled at Vera.
Vera finally opened the door and walked in. As she gingerly approached Minerva, she observed theexpression on Minerva's face and the emotions in her eyes. She couldn't help but feel curious.
Minerva looked at her and sighed helplessly. "Don't be so curious. I didn't get back together withhim and it's impossible to get back together."
Hearing that, Vera's face changed, and she quickly walked up to her.
"Why? Don't you still love him?"
"We don't have to be together just because I love him."
Vera scratched her head. "I don't understand." "It's better if you don't understand. If you do, thatwould only mean that you have had a bad experience. Well, is this why you looked for me?"
"No!" Vera immediately shook her head, and then took out the mobile phone. "Look at what istrending on Facebook."
Minerva took the phone from Vera, confused. Then, she carefully read the contents of the page.
It was titled 'Maddox's Mysterious Woman¹.
"Did you see that?" Vera asked. It was listed second on the search results. "I only saw it just now.You were photographed by the paparazzi during the press conference. Apparently, they uploadedthe news onto the Internet. Everyone is now guessing who that woman is."
Minerva was speechless.
Sure enough, Maddox had brought trouble to her again.
"Although everyone is just speculating at this point, some people would be frantically trying to findout who you are."
Minerva pursed her lips and imagined the scene of that night. "Let's take this aside for now."
"Minerva, what would happen if we just left it be? I fear that your days would be ruined if the truth isuncovered."
"For now, I don't think that would happen. I hid very well that night and I didn't show my face."Minerva shook her head.
"Well then." Vera took a look at the search rankings again and said angrily, "By the way, if it wasn'tfor Maddox, then Yvonne would have probably won the first place in search rankings. She wasreally shameless. She has found a lot of marketing accounts to spread her news around, sayingthat Quill, the President of Hanover Corporation, is pursuing her. Apparently, he secretly sent her acustom-made branded dress. Now many people are envious of her."
Upon hearing that, Minerva seemed to come to a sudden realisation. "My brother wouldn't do sucha thing."
"I also think so. That's why Yvonne is trying to gain some fame using Quill. I just can't stand it!"
Minerva looked at her in amusement and said, "Then what do you want to do? Tell my brother?There's a female celebrity who's trying to make use of his name to gain fame."
Vera's eyes widened. "How can I tell him? Won't that Prince Charming hate me with a burningpassion if I do? Oh by the way..." A thought suddenly formed in Vera's mind. She looked at Minerva,and Minerva could see the gears churning in her head. Vera smiled slyly and began, "Minerva, goodMinerva..."
She was talking in a delicate sweet voice and that sent goosebumps all over Minerva's skin.
"Minerva, you're his sister. It's better that you tell him about this matter." Vera simply bent down andhugged Minerva's arm as she cried out pitifully, "You don't want anyone to use your brother's nameto do evil, do you?"
"She's just trying to gain some fame. She's not doing any evil."
"Minerva, how could this not be considered evil? She has taken advantage of your popularity.Because of that, everyone is treating her better. Who knows, we might even have to address her asMrs. Hanover. She is our common enemy. Last time, she even ruined our work. If she uses theHanover family to gain fame, wouldn't that be..."
"Okay, okay, I got it." Minerva had no choice but to agree after hearing Vera's words.
"I'll tell my brother later."
"Minerva, you're the best!" Vera bent down and gave Minerva a kiss. Then, she quickly ran out.After that, she suddenly stopped and said, "Why don't you go to the company to find Quill now?Anyway, there's still an hour before we get off work. I'll pick Beanie up instead."
"Now?"
"Yes, there are a lot of reporters going to the Hanover Corporation's building today. I saw manyreporters on the Internet who want to interview him. They just want to verify it, but your brotherrefused to get interviewed. No one dares to provoke him."
Upon hearing that, Minerva finally understood what she meant.
She hoped that Quill could take advantage of the reporter's interview to deny the incident and slapYvonne in the face.
"I got it."
After Vera left, the smile on Minerva's face gradually faded. "Should I go find Quill? I should getgoing. I happen to have something to ask him too."
Hence, Minerva quickly left again.
The advantage of running a business was that one could come and go as they pleased.
When Minerva arrived at the Hanover Corporation, she realised that there were indeed manypaparazzi and reporters squatting near the Hanover Corporation and discussing with each otherwhile holding cameras. Although they are siblings, it was the first time she came to the companyafter so many years.
Minerva thought that it might take a lot of effort to get to Quill. Therefore, when she was about to callQuill directly, the girl at the front desk suddenly ran over.
"Excuse me, are you Miss Minerva?"
Upon hearing that, Minerva was a little surprised. "You know me?"
"President Hanover specifically told me that if you come here, you can take the special elevator tosee him."
