Female Novel
Chapter 621
After hearing this from Minerva, Vera was instantly filled with confidence.
This was the first time she had received such advice from her. She could not help but praise,"Minerva, you are really amazing. I think you can be a relationship mentor."
Upon hearing this, Minerva could only smile bitterly in her heart. Who could she help out? Shecouldn't even sort out her own feelings.
However, the words that she had said to Vera just now...
They were really beyond her own expectations.
She lowered her head and looked at the documents on the table. Did she want to see Maddoxnow?
That seemed to be the case.
Should she follow her heart and call him?
During this period of time, he had been by her side on his own initiative. Now that he was abroad,he didn't even call her. Maybe it was because he promised not to find her; was that probably why hedidn't inform her?
This could be the case.
After thinking for a moment, Minerva fished out her phone and opened the Facebook app. Sheclicked on Maddox's profile and was about to send him a message before stopping herself.
If she sent him a message now, wouldn't it seem like she was too eager?
After all, she had never taken the initiative to do so.
Thinking of this, Minerva let out a sigh and put her phone back on the table. Then, she began towork.
The busy day ended just like that. When it was time to get off work, Minerva packed up and wasready to pick up Beanie from school.
Before leaving the office, her phone rang.
It was a strange number.
Minerva knitted her beautiful brows and answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"Mommy!"
"Beanie?" Upon hearing Beanie's voice, Minerva frowned in surprise, "Whose phone are you callingme with?"
"Mommy, it's Uncle Ben's phone."
Uncle Ben?
Minerva stopped in her tracks when she heard the word "Ben". An ominous premonition rose fromher, "What, what do you mean? Who is Uncle Ben?"
Suddenly, a figure appeared in Han Minerva's mind. She felt a chill run down her spine.
There was some noise from the other end of the call, as if the phone had been transferred toanother person's hand. Following which, Minerva heard a familiar voice which was warm and calm.
"Minerva, it's me."
Benedict!
Minerva bit her lower lip, her anger instantly rising, "Benedict, what do you want to do? What do youmean by this?"
After questioning him, Minerva didn't have time to think before running out of the office.
Vera, who was not far behind her, saw that she had run away and shouted at her, "Minerva, whereare you going? Wait for me." However, Minerva seemed to have not heard what she said. Vera felthelpless and could only stomp her feet.
Forget it, she would ask her later at night.
Vera was going to Hanover Corporation first. She was going to see him!
Minerva rushed to the parking lot, opened the car door and got in. Then she said to Benedict coldly.
"Just say it. What do you want? Where is Beanie?"
After a short period of silence, Minerva started to panic. "Benedict? Say something." She pleaded.
After that, he let out a sigh.
"I was worried that you would call me Mr. Benedict. I didn't expect that you would call me by myname. It's nothing... I just passed by the school and saw the little fellow standing at the entrance, soI brought him home."
"Home?" Minerva narrowed her eyes.
"Mommy, Uncle Ben and I are now in a bakery near our house."
Minerva replied, "I'll be right over. Don't run around. If there's anything, you can ask the shop ownerfor help. She's a good friend of Mommy, do you understand?"
The last sentence was a hint, implying that if Benedict did something to Beanie, she would not lethim off.
Minerva immediately hung up the phone and turned the car around.
She just avoided the peak hour. There were not many cars on the road so Minerva drove quickly.However, it still took her some time to reach her destination.
Minerva's heart was hanging in the air all the way. She felt terrible. She wanted nothing more thanto be in front of Beanie in an instant and hold him in her arms. She wanted Beanie to stay awayfrom Benedict.novelbin
Benedict...
She really couldn't see through this man anymore.
The last time they met in the supermarket, he said that he lived nearby. He even said that she couldcheck it up if she didn't believe it.
Why would she do so?
If he really appeared in front of her deliberately, then he must have prepared everything. Even if shewent to investigate, it would probably be superficial.
Therefore, she didn't waste time to investigate Benedict's situation at all.
It was just that she did not expect that he would do so many things to get close to her. First, heapproached her through his company, and now, he was using Beanie.
What was he trying to do? What were his intentions?
Just like that, Han Minerva let her imagination run wild as she reached the entrance of the bakery.
She had no time to think about anything. She pulled out the car key, got out of the car and randirectly into the store.
Han Minerva pushed open the glass door and shouted, "Beanie."
"Mommy, I'm here."
There were seats in the bakery. Minerva looked at the source of the voice and saw Beanie sittinginside, with a fruit cake placed in front of him. He waved his small hand at her and the corner of hismouth was stained with white cream.
Han Minerva's heart tightened when she saw Beanie. She quickly walked over to him.
"You're here?"
A warm voice rang out.
It was until then that Minerva remembered that there was another person beside Beanie.
Minerva's beautiful eyes were filled with fury when she saw Benedict. She could barely suppressher anger, but she had to in front of Beanie.
She ignored Benedict, walked to Beanie and sat down. She took out a tissue and gently wiped thecream stains on the corners of his mouth with a smile.
"Is the fruit cake delicious?"
Beanie nodded innocently and answered, "Mommy, it's delicious."
"Good boy," Minerva stretched out her hand and rubbed his head. She asked softly, "When will youfinish eating?"
"I still have a lot left."
Beanie pointed at the fruit cake in front of him. Minerva looked at it and saw that there was still moreleft. She turned her gaze and said softly, "Take this fruit cake and go to the car first. I have a fewwords to say to Uncle Ben, okay?"
"Oh?" Beanie blinked his eyes and asked innocently, "What do you want to say?"
Minerva gently pinched his cheek gently, "Mommy and Uncle Ben are doing business together. It'sabout work. Even if you stay here, you won't understand. Wait for me in the car for two minutes,alright?"
Beanie thought about it and then nodded in agreement.
"Okay, Mommy. I will listen to you."
After that, Beanie stood up and made a deep bow to Benedict. "Thank you for picking me up andtreating me to this fruit cake. I will wait for Mommy in the car," he said politely.
