Chapter 677

Minerva stared helplessly at Vera. Just how much did this girl like Quill? Did she have to meet withhim everyday?

Vera lowered her eyes shyly at her gaze. A moment later, she regained her composure andcoughed softly.

"I know you think that I am too forward, right? But... If I don't seize the opportunity, Quill might endup with another woman. What am I supposed to do then? By then... Even if I want to, I won't havethe opportunity."

Minerva was speechless.

"Plus, Quill may forget me in a few days if I don't check in everyday to make a good impression."

"I understand," Minerva nodded. Looking at the distressed look on Vera's face, she suddenlysmiled, "At most, three days. After three days, I will definitely bring Beanie back to you as yourconsultant."

"Really?" Vera was overjoyed and asked in surprise.

"Yes."

Thinking of Maddox's indifferent face, Vera was a little frightened. She bit her lower lip and asked,"What if... Maddox disagrees? After all, things have changed."

Now that Beanie had acknowledged him as his father, who was not an ordinary person, but theYoung Master Yardley from the Yardley family.

If Maddox found out that his son was her love consultant, Vera knew that she was going to get itfrom him.

"He won't disagree," Minerva smiled faintly, "I've already said that I would bring him home afterthree days. You'll have to wait for the time being."

Three days...

Hearing this, Vera couldn't help but wonder, "Is Minerva going to do something? Three days later, ifMaddox doesn't agree, could it be that... she wants to snatch her son back?"

It was not easy for them to make amends. If they quarreled again, it would be chaos, wouldn't it?

Thinking of this, Vera could not help but open her mouth carefully, "Minerva... Why don't I put mymatter aside for now? I think your happiness is more important. After all, Beanie is your son. Even ifI like Quill, I can't be so selfish..."novelbin

"Who says you're selfish? And what are you thinking about?"

Minerva crossed her arms and stared at Vera with amusement. She must have misunderstoodsomething.

"It wasn't easy for you and Maddox to get back together. I'm afraid that you..."

"No, it won't."

Minerva shook her head, "Don't worry. I know what to do. This matter... I've definitely kept it a secretfrom him for a long time."

"You mean..." Seeing the smile in her eyes, Vera suddenly said, "I see. Then, I'll wait for your goodnews."

Minerva smiled and did not say anything else.

In the blink of an eye. Minerva went to work, ate and slept as usual. Even if the entire house wasempty, she was at ease. If it wasn't for Vera, who understood what Minerva was thinking, she wouldfeel that something was wrong.

Soon, three days were up.

Minerva got up as usual and went to work, but Vera was starting to worry about her.

"Three days have passed. Minerva, you..."

"Yes?" Minerva was dumbfounded for a moment before sighing, "It's been three days? Time reallyflies..."

Vera looked at how indifferent she was, and her heart was suddenly doubtful. What was going onwith her? Three days had passed, but Maddox and Beanie were nowhere to be seen. How couldMinerva still be so calm?

She seemed confident and collected on the outside. However, Vera didn't know what exactly wasgoing on.

"Since it's time, you'd better head out early today and pick Beanie up from school."

"Huh?" Vera widened her eyes and said, "I will be picking Beanie up. However... Can I really dothat? Have you told Maddox?"

"No."

Minerva replied indifferently.

Vera's face fell when she heard this, "You didn't inform him, and you want to let me pick him up? Is itreally alright for me to do this?"

"Don't worry. You'll just need to go and pick him up. After I'm done with my work, we will go andmeet with him."

Vera was relieved when she heard that Minerva was going straight to see Maddox after work. Aslong as she would see him, she felt more relaxed about picking Beanie up after work.

"Okay, sounds great! I'll get off work early today and wait for him then."

Time passed quickly. When it was almost time to get off work, Vera notified Minerva and left quickly.After she left, Minerva glanced at the phone on the table.

For the rest of the day, the phone was silent.

Her phone had been quiet for some time now.

It was as if Maddox had vanished from her life.

In the past three days, he did not send her any messages, nor did he make any phone calls. It wasas if he had vanished into thin air.

Compared to how quickly he would appear previously, Minerva helplessly lowered her eyes. Therewere no signs of a smile on her face.

Since Vera had already gone off to pick up Beanie, she should wait for Maddox at the YardleyCorporation.

The thought flashed through Minerva's mind and she immediately sprung into action.

After finishing her work, she left the company, drove out and rushed to the Yardley Corporation.

In the Yardley Corporation.

When Minerva arrived, it was almost time to get off work. She thought for a moment and decided towait for Maddox downstairs. If she went up, she didn't know whether she would avoid him.

However, she couldn't park there for too long. Hence, she could only drive the car to a parking lotnearby. Then, she went to the cafe opposite the company and ordered a cup of coffee. After that,she sat by the window.

This seat's lighting was perfect and she could see everything on the opposite side clearly throughthe window.

As soon as Maddox came out, she would be able to see him immediately.

Minerva held her phone and opened Facebook to look for that familiar chat. She was hesitating ifshe should call him or send him a message.

After giving it some thought, she decided that since she was already there, there was no need tosend him a message or make a phone call.

She would just go straight to see him.

Time passed. Five minutes after work ended, Minerva finally saw a familiar figure walking out of thecompany.

Her heart was beating rapidly. She quickly put down the coffee in her hand, grabbed her bag andrushed out.

Maddox grabbed the car keys and headed out. He frowned because he realized that he had gottenoff work too late. If he went over to pick Beanie up right now, he would have waited for him for sometime now.

As a result, Maddox was quick in his steps. Minerva chased after him, gasping for air. She was stillin high heels. In the end, she saw the man in front speeding up.

Minerva thought he realized that she was tailing him. He did not want her to catch up with him, nordid he want to meet her.

She was so mad that she simply stopped and shouted at him.

"Maddox."

The person in front of her paused. Maddox's brows furrowed even more. Was he hallucinating?

Did he just hear that woman's voice?

No, judging from Minerva's character, why would she come to see him on her own accord? Maybehe thought of her so much recently that he started hallucinating.
