Chapter 620
"Fallen for his trap? What do you mean?" Kelly gave Vera a puzzled look.
Vera smiled and shrugged her shoulders, "You will know in the future. Well, I'm going to report toMinerva. I'll talk to you another time."
After that, she left the pantry, leaving Kelly alone, holding her chin strangely.
Kelly wondered if she had fallen into Aaron's trap.
What was that about? Kelly thought carefully and recalled the meaningful expression on Vera's facejust now. Kelly realized something and stomped her feet in anger.
"Vera, stop. Who said that I have fallen into Aaron's trap? Who would like someone like him? Comeback!"
Kelly ran out of the pantry.
Meanwhile, Vera had already quickly entered Minerva's office and placed the documents in front ofher.
Hearing the commotion outside and looking at Vera's sneaky appearance, Minerva smiled andasked, "What did you do?"
"It's nothing," Vera shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. "Let's not talk about her. Take a look at myreport. This shows the orders we have received, our expenses and sales," Vera added.
Upon hearing this, Minerva took the document.
In the past, when it was just the two of them, Vera would take care of these things.
She used to work in Yardley Corporation's finance department and she was great with money andfigures. When Minerva started her own company, she didn't have extra money to hire someoneelse. That was why Vera handled the finances.
Minerva trusted her. After looking at it, she smiled and said, "Great work. If you think there's noproblem with it, it's fine. You don't have to show it to me."
"I must show it to you," Vera glared at her and then sat down beside her. "I can only rest assuredafter you have inspected it. Although we are good friends, the accounts still need to be calculatedclearly. By the way, I heard from Kelly that Young Master Yardley went on a business trip?"
Upon hearing Maddox's name, the smile on Minerva's face faded.
She nodded.
"That's right."
"How do you feel?" Vera leaned over and looked at her carefully, as if she wanted to see herreaction.
At such a close distance, Minerva felt slightly awkward. She touched her nose.
"Kelly must have told you everything. Why are you putting on an act in front of me?" Minerva asked.
"Humph!" Vera snorted forcefully. "I know you still have feelings for him."
Minerva didn't reply. She just lowered her head.
"So what? Even if I still have feelings for him, who can guarantee that the same mistakes won'thappen again?"
"I don't know if that will happen. I only know that if you missed out on him, it may be for a lifetime. Imean, think about it, unless you're ready to be alone for the rest of your life and won't miss him atall."
"Won't miss him at all?"
Minerva's eyes were filled with bitterness.
That was impossible.
Even when he did not appear in front of her, she could not help but search for news about himonline. However, she would not admit it after being discovered.
Not to mention that he was around her everyday, doing and saying things that made her feeltouched.
Minerva closed her eyes and clenched her fists on the table. She spoke in pain.
"If I accept him, doesn't it seem that I'm very... cheap?"
Hearing this, Vera turned to look at her in surprise.
"Minerva, why do you think so?"
She opened her eyes and there was a look of uncertainty in them.
"Is it wrong to think so? He treated me like that five years ago. Now that he's waving at me, I'mgoing back to be with him. Wouldn't he feel like I'm someone whom he can easily order around?"
Vera was stunned.
"I don't agree. In my opinion, judging by how Maddox treats you, I don't think he is such a person."novelbin
"I don't think he's that kind of person either, but... I still can't get over it."
Minerva let out a soft sigh. She laid on the desk weakly and muttered to herself.
"I have already brought Beanie home. I promised that I would not send him away again."
Hearing this, Vera widened her eyes in surprise.
"You mean... You're planning to let them meet?"
Minerva just kept quiet.
Vera nervously swallowed, "Why? Didn't you strongly oppose it before? You said that you wouldhide it as long as possible. Why did you change your mind?"
"Although I am Beanie's mother, I can't deprive him of his right to make a decision. He is verymature. Although he is still young, he can think for himself. I shouldn't constrain him."
These were Minerva's honest feelings.
Vera looked at Minerva, who was lying on the table with tired eyes. Suddenly, she felt sorry for herand leaned forward to hug her shoulders.
"Minerva, don't think too much. Let nature take its course, okay? Don't over- protect Beanie, anddon't deliberately refuse Young Master Yardley. Everything will develop accordingly. Anyway, I willbe by your side."
Minerva lifted her eyelids and asked, "Are you doing this for me, or for Quill?"
Vera didn't say a word.
She rolled her eyes in anger.
"When did you become so bad? Of course, it's for you. Do you think I will say that I'm doing this topursue Quill? Wouldn't you be disappointed if I said so?"
Speaking of this, Vera snorted again, "Even if it is really for Quill's sake, you can't do anything tome. Don't you want me to be your sister-in-law?"
Minerva smiled helplessly and said, "It depends on you. You've secretly kissed him, but he didn'texpress anything. Now that I have brought Beanie home, you don't even have the chance toapproach him."
Speaking of this, Vera felt helpless.
"It's true. Then why did you bring Beanie back so early?" Vera grabbed Minerva's arm and shook ithard, "Ah, you should compensate me with a good chance!"
Minerva felt a little giddy, "I can't do anything about it. Beanie is my son. I can't keep him by Quill'sside forever. If you really like Quill, even if you don't have the chance to be with him all the time, youstill get to see him."
"What excuse do I use to be there?"
Han Minerva smiled knowingly.
"You don't need an excuse. What's important is that you want to see him."
Vera was completely stunned. It took her a long time to come to her senses.
"I see. The most important thing is not the reason, but that I want to see him, to chase him!"
"Yes!" Minerva nodded.
"I understand, Minerva. Thank you!!"
