Chapter 661

Bang!

The ambulance drove away after the door slammed shut. Only then did Minerva turn her head andlook at Beanie, who was beside her.

"What's the matter with you?"

"Huh? What's wrong, Mommy?" Beanie raised his head and looked at Minerva innocently. Helooked completely angelic.

Looking at him, Minerva was confused, but after all, he was her son. She knew what he was like.

She squatted down and pinched Beanie's face.

"Did you... do it on purpose?"

"Mommy, what are you talking about? I don't understand what you're talking about."

"Don't give me that. Why did you tell the nurse that we don't know him? You ate the cake he boughtfor you last time, but now you're saying you don't know him?"

"Mommy!" Beanie pouted and said, "When did I do that? I just told the nurse that we are not hisfamily. Am I wrong? Humph. Are you telling me he is a part of our family? I didn't say anythingwrong. Why are you blaming me?"

Minerva was silent.

She took some time to think. Beanie did not say that he didn't know Benedict. He just said that theyweren't a family.

That was the truth.

What he said made sense and she couldn't refute it.

"So, did I say something wrong?"

Minerva came to her senses and looked at Beanie in front of her. She shook her head helplesslyand said, "You're right, but the nurse doesn't know. She's going to think you meant that we didn'tknow him at all. Think about it... How sad would he feel after hearing that?¹'

"Probably very sad," he thought for a moment and said.

"Then why did you say it?"

“But, he's nobody to me. Why should I care if he's sad?"

Minerva was speechless.

She really didn't expect her son to have different thoughts from her. Minerva had no idea how torespond to his answer.

"Mommy!" Beanie shook her arm and said, "You promised to find a daddy for me. I only wantDaddy; I don't want Ben."

As he spoke, he was acting cute. He looked at her with his puppy dog eyes and made it hard for herto refuse him.

Minerva could only sigh. She rubbed his little head, "I said I'll find a daddy for you, so I'll definitelydo it."

"Really?" Beanie's face was full of joy. "When can I see Daddy? You're so horrible and passive. Youmade me wait for so long."

"It's my fault. Ill try to arrange it as soon as possible. Once I figure it out, 111 let you meet yourdaddy, okay?"

"Okay, but Mommy, Auntie Vera said she would come to pick me up. Where is she?"

As soon as he finished, he heard a cry of surprise.

"Beanie, Minerva, why are you guys here?"

The two looked toward where the voice was coming from and saw Vera running over.

"Vera, why haven't you gone back yet?"

"Auntie Vera."

"Ahem..." Seeing Minerva, Vera coughed lightly and said, "I thought you had already gone out, so Ididn't expect you to be here. But... Today, you are not allowed to have Beanie. I already made anappointment with him. I'm taking him with me to see Quill in the afternoon."

"You're going to see Quill?" Minerva was stunned for a moment before she curled her lips and said,"This is the partner in crime you were talking about?"

Vera's face turned red, but in the end, she nodded her head honestly.

"Given his relationship with Quill, he is the best person to help me."

Since she said so, Minerva had no choice but to get up and hand Beanie over to Vera. "Alright, I'mreturning your partner to you. Bring him back home in one piece. Don't come home too late."

"I will!"

Before Beanie left, he seemed to think of something.

"Mommy, do you still have to go to the hospital to see Ben?"

"Ben?" Vera did not know what just happened. She asked with a puzzled face, "Who is Ben?"

Ben? Soon, she thought of a name. She looked at Minerva, seeking confirmation from her eyes.

Minerva nodded slightly and then looked at Beanie.

"Ben is alone, so I'd better go check on him. I'll make it quick."

"What about finding Daddy?"

Minerva felt her head pounding. Vera quickly hugged him and said, "Why are you nosing into otherpeople's business? Your mommy knows what to do. Don't worry about it. Come with me to see youruncle."

After that, Vera lifted Beanie up, then turned around and left.

Vera held him in her arms, but he was facing Minerva. His round and dark eyes stared at her.Minerva felt so guilty that she avoided his gaze.

She sighed in relief after the two of them disappeared from her sight. Then, she called for a taxi andwent straight to the hospital.

She had clearly seen him fall in front of her. Even as a business partner, she had to go check onhim. On the way there, Minerva made a phone call to Justin.

As soon as Justin heard that Benedict was ill, he immediately asked which hospital it was.

When Minerva arrived, she saw Justin waiting at the door.

"Justin."

"Miss Hanover!" Justin saw her and quickly stepped forward, "I heard that Mr. Benedict was ill andadmitted to the hospital, so I rushed over immediately. Is he okay?"

Minerva shook her head and said, "I'm not too sure. He probably just got here not that long ago.Let's go inside and ask."

"Okay."

The two of them walked inside. After finding out where Benedict was, they rushed over together.

As they were heading over, Minerva's cell phone rang.

She took out her cell phone and looked at it. She suddenly stopped in her tracks the moment shesaw that it was Maddox. Justin, who was next to her, saw her stop and asked, "Miss Hanover?"

"I'm sorry, I need to take a call. Justin, you head on over."

After Minerva finished speaking, she ran to the side to answer the call. Because people were goingin and out of the hospital, she found a relatively quiet corner to speak.

"Hello?"

"Where are you?" Maddox's voice sounded lazy, but Minerva was a little shocked. She coughedlightly and said, "I... I'm on my way home." "On the way home?" He paused and then said,

I nen I'll wait for you.”novelbin

"What do you mean?"

"I'm at your door."

What he said almost made Minerva jump up.

"When did he get to my house? Why is he at my door?"

"Didn't I tell you that I haven't decided yet? Why are you..."

"What are you afraid of? It doesn't matter whether we meet each other now or later. Besides, I haveprepared gifts for our son."

Minerva swallowed and bit her lower lip.

"But, I'm not home yet."

"How long will it take?"

"How long will it take?" She looked up awkwardly at Justin in front of her and bit her lips, "About 20minutes or so;
