Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 689

In the next second, Minerva saw that the smile on Quill's face disappeared, and he seemed to be alittle surprised.

Minerva had expected this reaction of his. She lowered her head and bit her lower lip lightly. After along while, she asked in a low voice, "Do you know what I mean?"

He was not smiling at this moment. His eyes were indifferent as he looked at her.

"What do you mean?"

He clearly knew what she meant, but he still pulled a long face and asked her the question. Minervalooked up at him and saw the cold dazzling light emanating in his calm eyes. This was... a sign ofanger.

If she continued...

"I want to register my marriage with Maddox."

In the end, she spoke bluntly.

A dangerous look appeared in Quill's eyes. "Do you know what you're talking about?"

"Yes." She raised her head and gave him a deep look. "Since I've already said it, there's nochanging it anymore. Quill, I'm an adult and have the right to decide my own matters." "What do youmean? Are you blaming me for meddling in your affairs in the past? Or do you not want me tointerfere in your business anymore?" He said with a faint smile on his lips, mocking himself.

Upon seeing this self-mocking smile, she felt a little upset. She lowered her eyes and spoke in asoft tone.

"Quill, I know that you have always been great to me, but..."

He interrupted, "I only want to ask you one question. Have you forgotten what he did to you in thepast?"

She was speechless.

She didn't. How could she forget?

Some memories were engraved in her bones, and they could not be erased even for a lifetime.

"There are many things that have consequences to it. Back then, I also did him wrong, and both ofus offset each other."

Hearing this, Quill's expression changed and he suddenly came forward.

"So you two cancel each other out? Are you so easy to trick? What did you say before youreturned? What about now?" "Quill!" Her voice became louder and she took a step back. "This isn'ta trick. This is my own decision." "So? You didn't come to discuss this with me today. You just cameto inform me, didn't you?"

She was stupefied.

How was she supposed to answer that? She did want to be with Maddox forever. Indeed, shewanted to take her account book to register for marriage.

However, she felt that she should also tell Quill about this matter.

"It's a discussion." She lowered her head, "But... If you don't agree, I won't give in as well."

His eyes were terrifyingly dark. Suddenly, he caught sight of the diamond ring on Minerva's hand.

His gaze immediately sharpened. Quill stepped forward to grab her hand and raised it. It really wasa diamond ring.

Why didn't he notice it when they were having lunch just now?

Now that he thought about it, it was Minerva who hid her hand under the table during the meal. Shewas afraid that he would see it.

Huh!

How smart!

"Quill?" Her wrist was aching from his grip. Her delicate brows furrowed. "Let go of me first. You'rehurting me."

"Do you still feel pain? Did you forget how he hurt you five years ago?"

"Quill." She struggled to pull back her hand.

"Let go of me first. Let me explain it to you."

He looked at her with a dark face. "Forget it."

Suddenly, he let go of her and allowed her to take a few steps back. Quill ignored her and turned hisback, not looking at her anymore.

"I won't give you the account book, so you don't have to explain anything."

Minerva uttered hesitantly, "Quill?"

"If you still think that I am your brother, let's pretend that this conversation never happened. Goback."novelbin

"But I came here for this, I..."

"Oh," he smiled bitterly. "I thought you were back for a meal. I didn't expect you to come back to getyour account book... You are really a good sister."

"Quill."

At this point, she felt that it was even more difficult for her to explain herself.

If she insisted on taking the account book that day, Quill would probably be furious with her. If hewas mad, he might be disappointed.

Moreover, if she took the account book forcefully, she might also hurt his feelings.

Therefore... Should she continue?

How about... she let it go for now? And talk about it another day?

"It doesn't matter if you don't let me take the account book today. I'll leave and come back anotherday."

As her words fell, Minerva turned around and left the room.

He only turned around after she left the room. He looked in the direction she had left in, deep inthought.

After she went downstairs, she found that Vera and Beanie were waiting for her. After being scoldedby Quill, she felt that her current appearance had become somewhat bad.

With a light cough, Minerva calmed herself down and walked down.

Vera quietly observed the look on her face and asked, "What's wrong? Did you quarrel with Quill?"

"No." Minerva shook her head. "We won't be having dinner here tonight. Let's head back."

Hearing this, Vera's face turned bitter in an instant. "No way! We just came, and now we are leavingagain? I haven't got along with Quill yet..."

"Why not... I'll leave Beanie here, and you can stay to take care of him?"

"Great idea!"

After the two of them discussed, Vera and Beanie would stay in the Hanover family. Minerva leftfirst.

She didn't drive there, and there wasn't a driver to send her.

Therefore, after leaving the Hanover family, Minerva walked alone on the road. She touched herphone but had no intention of calling for a taxi.

Her mind was completely focused on the account book. If Quill disagreed, how could she convincehim?

After all, she loved her brother so much. She really couldn't see herself hurting him or angering him.But now, Quill was already mad when she said she wanted to take back her account book. If shecontinued to pester him, she feared...

Thinking of this, Minerva had a headache. She reached out her hand and pinched her temple.

Things were not looking as simple as it is.

Quill was unwilling to accept Maddox. The problem rested on Maddox's end. Was it necessary forhim to find Quill himself to solve it?

However...

When she was thinking, Minerva's phone suddenly vibrated.

She looked down and found that it was a call from Maddox.

Hesitating for a moment, Minerva finally answered the call.

"Hello?"

"What are you thinking about?"

"What?"

Minerva was taken aback by his sentence.

"You've been walking for about ten minutes. Are you planning to walk back to Ocean Villa?"

Hearing this, she abruptly raised her head and looked in front of her. She did not see anyone. At thesame time, she heard a low and deep laugh coming from her phone.

"Turn around."

Minerva obeyed. Under the bright sunlight, a familiar car was not far behind her.
