Chapter 649

Hearing this, Vera was stunned for a moment.

Then she thought of something, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Ah! Beanie!"

She screamed and threw her hands up as she ran over to him. Beanie was so scared that hewanted to turn around and go upstairs, but he heard her shouting, "Beanie, you're such a clever kid!You're my lucky star!"

"Huh?" He stopped and turned to look at Vera.novelbin

"What a great idea. Why didn't I think of it before? Quill is your uncle. It's normal for you to visit him.Why should I resign? I can just rely on you."

Vera pinched his face as she spoke. Her movements were particularly gentle and her tone wasextraordinarily pleasing.

"Beanie, my precious, I always treat you so well don't I?" Vera's smile and tone became strange,"Your uncle has been single for so many years. You can't let him die alone right? You don't want tosee him lonely either surely?"

Beanie blinked and said, "Uncle Quill won't end up alone. He has billions of assets. Many womenwant to marry him."

Hearing this, Vera immediately became distressed.

"You're right. Your uncle owns billions of assets. There are many women in North City who want tomarry him. And I... I'm just one among all of them. I'm not as beautiful or talented as they are, but Ihave you, Beanie. You're my golden ticket in. Take me to your uncle and help us grow closer."

Seeing that Beanie was unmoved, she had no choice but to start listing out bribes.

"If you do, I can make you BBQ ribs everyday!"

He acted as if he hadn't heard her. He continued blinking and silently looking at her.

Vera gritted her teeth and said, "I'll even make you grilled salmon!"

He continued to blink his eyes.

His eyes shone and sparkled.

"Alright!" She was defeated and said, "Whatever you want to eat in the future, just tell me and I willmake it for you, okay?"

Beanie's eyes lit up and he finally nodded, "Deal!"

She was glad that she had finally achieved her goal. Although she knew that she would have towork harder in the future, it didn't matter if she could win the heart of her Prince Charming.

One night passed quickly. When Minerva woke up, she seemed to have heard a sound coming fromoutside.

She was still very sleepy, so she did not care. She turned over and continued to sleep.

Minerva closed her eyes and recalled the sound she had just heard. She felt like something waswrong.

After thinking for a while, she opened her eyes again. Her beautiful eyes, which had just woken up,were still misty, as if dripped on by morning dew.

A female voice?

They were in the hotel, weren't they? How could there be a female voice outside?

With these thoughts in her mind, her body subconsciously began to move before she could react.She lifted the blanket off her body, sat up and got out of the bed.

The hotel room she stayed in was a suite so it had separate rooms like the living room, the kitchenand the bathroom.

Right now, there were a few more people in the living room.

Maddox looked at them coldly and said with a sneer, "I heard that the Dormer family was one of themost elite families among the upper class, but today, I see that elite families don't seem to haveproper manners. Your family's behavior and conduct is even worse than the average working classfamily."

Monica stood there with a gloomy expression on her face. Beside her was a tall and handsomeman.

The man's facial features were extremely eyecatching. The corner of his eyes were turned upward,mimicking a fox. His appearance was even more unique than that of Monica's.

However, there wasn't the slightest hint of warmth from his body.

"Zaydon!" Monica's heart had been hurt by Maddox. She quickly tugged on the man beside her andasked him for help.

That man was Monica's older brother, Zaydon Dormer.

His hand was in his pocket. Even though he had a smile on his thin lips, his aura was no weakerthan Maddox's.

"Your words are too harsh. Monica is from a good family, but our family has always been moreopen-minded. When you meet someone you love, you would certainly do anything to get her. If youfeel like Monica has been rude, then you only have yourself to blame for being so handsome andmaking her fall in love with you at first sight."

With an expression of approval, Monica nodded her head.

"That's right."

"Maddox, I really didn't mean to misuse my power to enter your room. Ifs just that the hotel you'restaying in happens to be under my name, so... I couldn't help myself."

Maddox kept silent.

The Dormer family were in the hotel business. In fact, most of the hotels abroad were owned bythem.

What troubled Maddox the most was how he had coincidentally chosen to stay in another hotelowned by them this time around.

He sneered and said, "Get out."

Zaydon's face changed slightly, "Mr. Yardley, 'get out¹ sounds a little rude. You've just said Monicahad no manners earlier, but now in comparison, it seems like you are the same, aren't you?"

Maddox stared at the pair of siblings in front of him, especially Zaydon, who had been talkingnonstop since he came in.

He was nagging away like an old woman and Maddox could not suppress his anger anymore.

More importantly, Minerva was still sleeping.

All this commotion would probably disturb her.

As he was thinking about it, a confused female voice rang out.

"What's going on?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman in a male shirt. Her skin was fair,her hair was messy and her lips were red and swollen. She stood there.

The shirt went down to her thighs, just covering her buttocks, but also revealing her legs, whichwere fair and slender.

Zaydon glanced at her. Before he could take a closer look, a tall figure rushed over. He took off hiscoat and wrapped her with it.

Maddox's face was ashen. He used his coat to cover up her revealing outfit. Then, he asked in alow voice, "Why did you come out so suddenly?"

Minerva was dazed.

She looked up at Maddox and said, "The noise woke me up."

As expected.

His eyes were cold and he pulled her into his arms. He blocked the remaining people's view of herand shot an icy look at the two siblings.

"Get out of here before I lose my temper."

Minerva was shocked. Although Maddox had said that he had not lost his temper yet, she couldalready hear the fury in his voice.

She quietly poked her head out of Maddox's arms and looked at the two people in the room.

Who were these two? Why were they here so early in the morning?

When Minerva looked over, the two people were also sizing her up.

Zaydon looked at her for a while and smiled.

"Monica, is she your love rival?"

The moment Monica saw Minerva, she immediately knew that she was her enemy, and a verystrong one at that.

She could tell from how anxious Maddox was.

Monica also knew that if she wanted to be with Maddox, she would have to put in a lot of effort.
