Chapter 512

Walking around a corner, Minerva didn't see Beanie, but she didn't think too much of it. Thesupermarket was so big and they were on the third floor so she didn't care much about it. Shethought that Beanie was just playing with her.

So as she pushed the shopping cart, she said, "Beanie, it's not that I don't want to call your uncle,but he is too fierce these days. I'm a little scared. I'm so nice to you and I've taken you to thesupermarket. Please just call him for me."

"And don't you think that because you are a child, if you call horn, he would agree even more? If Icall and he is still angry, what if he just doesn't come?"

"Think about it. They're all losses, aren't they? So take it as a favor for me. Call your uncle for me,okay?"

Minerva said a lot but there was no response from Beanie.

Minerva frowned and said, "Beanie? Why aren't you speaking? Is it because you don't agree withwhat I said? Well, I know that I was wrong. When you come out, I will call your uncle personally."

However, there was still no response. Minerva felt a little strange so she pushed the shopping cartaround to search for him.

However, after making a few rounds, she still didn't see Beanie and Minerva became a littlenervous.

"Beanie, don't cause trouble. Come out quickly."

"If you don't come out now, I will be angry..."

"I'm really going to be angry!"

However, there was still no response.

Minerva's breathing gradually grew anxious and her face also began to turn pale. Her hands thatwere pushing the shopping cart unconsciously tightened. Then, she didn't even bother about theshopping cart and directly left it where it was. She then walked around in her high heels and lookedfor Beanie's figure.

"Beanie, come out quickly." Minerva called out his name as she walked around.

However, Beanie still didn't respond to her, which caused her heart to feel unsettled.

Could it be...

She stopped in her tracks and thought of Janice, whom she had met in the detention room that day.

At that time, her eyes were full of hatred, although she had sincerely regretted it later.

But... she was someone who could do such a thing. Could it be that Minerva had trusted the wrongperson?

Beanie had always been well- behaved and considerate. There was no way he would leave her.

Minerva was so anxious that her eyes started to turn red. What was going on?

However, at the next turn, Minerva's steps suddenly came to a halt.

She saw a figure in front of her, familiar and small.

Minerva was stunned for a few seconds. Then, she suddenly ran over and crouched down to hugthe tiny figure.

"Beanie, you scared me to death... It was all my fault just now. Don't do this again."

When Beanie was hugged by her, he suddenly came to his senses. He blinked a few times but hedidn't say a word.

"Did you hear that? Don't do this again next time. Promise me quickly."

Seeing that he didn't speak, Minerva held him by the shoulders and turned him over to face her asshe pleaded with him.

Beanie blinked at her and finally reached out to hug her by the neck. "Mommy, I am fine."

Seeing him like this, Minerva felt as if she had regained what she had lost. Once again, shereached out to hug him and forcefully hugged Beanie's tiny body into her embrace.

"Don't try to scare me like this next time. My heart won't be able to take this kind of tortureanymore."

"Mommy..."

"Kimberly?"

While Minerva was talking with Beanie in her arms, she suddenly heard someone call her name,her old name. Her body suddenly froze.

This voice...

Minerva slowly raised her head and saw a familiar figure in front of her.

It was as if a hammer had smashed into Minerva's heart and she felt as if everything was crumblingin an instant.

The blood on her lips faded away in an instant and she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

How could this be...

Why did she meet this person here?novelbin

"Mommy?" Beanie probably noticed that something was wrong with her, so he called her.

The soft voice pulled Minerva's mind back. She came to her senses and realized what washappening in front of her.

Minerva could only force herself to calm down. She quickly came up with a plan before slowlystanding up.

In the end, she went with the most stupid plan.

After getting up, she raised her lips towards the man with a strange smile on her face. "Sir, youmust've mistaken me for someone else."

After saying that, she directly took Beanie's hand and walked in the opposite direction. AlthoughBeanie didn't know what had happened, he could feel that Minerva had used a little strength to holdhis hand, which was so tight that he felt a little pain.

He looked up at Minerva and realized that her face and lips were both pale. After that, he did notdare to speak.

On the other side.

Benedict stood where he was, holding the wine bottle he had taken from the shelf in his hand. Helooked at the tall and slim girl in front of him leaving with the kid in shock.

It was the face in his memory. Although it had become more beautiful, the face and the cold, deepeyes still remained the same.

It was her.

That was no mistaking that gaze.

However... she said that he had mistaken her for someone else.

Why was that so?

After hesitating for a few seconds, Benedict put the bottle back on the shelf, then turned around andran after her with his long, slender legs.

After going around a corner, Minerva took Beanie to push the shopping cart. Beanie didn't sayanything and followed her, raising her head from time to time to look at her.

However, at that moment, Minerva's mind was in a complete mess.

She actually ran into Benedict Yardley there. He must have seen Beanie.

Then what were his current thoughts? Would he still look for her in the future?

Thinking of this, Minerva felt like her heart was a mess.

The only thing she wanted to do was to leave that place as soon as possible.

However, things did not always go as she wished. After Minerva walked for a while, she heardfootsteps coming from behind. Very quickly, someone grabbed her wrist. "Kimberly? It's you, isn'tit?"

Minerva felt all the blood in her body ice over. She stopped walking and did not turn her head.

"Sir, I told you that you've mistaken me for someone else."

Her voice was getting colder and colder, as if it was about to freeze.

Benedict frowned and looked at her with perplexed eyes.

"Please have some respect, sir. Let go."

After hearing what she said, Benedict had to slowly let go of her hand, but his body still didn'tretreat. Instead, he stared at her face.

"I haven't seen you in five years, yet there isn't even a 'long time no see' from you? You left withouta word then. Didn't you think that there would still be people worried about you?"

Benedict's words caused Minerva's heart to skip a beat. Then, she slowly turned her head andlooked at him.

She had neither love nor hate for Benedict.

She hadn't even thought of him much over the years, even though Sylvia told her that Benedict wasthe strange man from that night.

However, in her heart, she always subconsciously resisted that matter.
