Female Novel
Chapter 712
Vera shook her head. "Didn't I say..."
"Vera, if you still treat me as your good friend, don't do these meaningless things to try to stop me."
Minerva's voice suddenly became stern, and even her eyes became livid. Vera used to be anemployee of Maddox's company. When she saw such a look in her eyes, she looked the same ashim.
She felt a little emotional in her heart, but when she thought of Maddox's incident, she could onlygrit her teeth and continue to stubbornly explain, "How could I not treat you as my good friend? It'sbecause I treat you as a friend that I can't bear to watch you leave like this. Minerva, don't worry,okay? I'll help you prepare your makeup first. You're the bride."
Minerva's face darkened.
"Really? Without the groom, how could I be the bribe?"
Vera was speechless.
"Did something happen?" Minerva asked again.
Her gaze was as sharp as a knife. Vera had always known that Minerva was similar to Maddox, butshe didn't expect that it would be so similar.
It was as if he was glancing at her with his sharp eyes.
With little confidence, she lowered her shoulders and then shook her head. "No, nothinghappened... It's just..."
"You don't have to say anything." Minerva took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "If youdon't want to tell me, I won't force you, but I'll say this one last time. If you don't give way, then I'llreally get angry."
Vera suddenly raised her head and looked at her nervously.
"Minerva..."
Her expression was indifferent, and she didn't seem kind at this moment.
Her expression and her gaze were saying that if Vera didn't get out of the way then the two of themwould no longer be friends.
She was afraid, so she could only retreat slowly to the side.
Finally, she got out of the way...
Minerva strode forward. As soon as she walked out with her dress in her hand, a tall figureappeared in front of her.
"Quill?"
His gloomy eyes fell on her face, and the expression on her face didn't seem very welcoming.
"Don't go out."
"Even you are trying to get in my way?"
He kept silent. Minerva smiled miserably and said, "This is my wedding. Why can't I go out? Canyou... tell me why?"
Quill and Vera didn't have good expressions on their faces, and neither of them answered herquestions.
She felt more and more uneasy. She didn't care about anything else and barged out. She said, "Ifyou don't want to say it, then forget it. I'll go out myself. Maddox might come after a while. If he seesthat I'm not here, then he..."
Quill suddenly clenched her arm, which was lifting the hem of her skirt.
Minerva wanted to stomp forward, but she couldn't take a step forward.
"Let me go."
"Don't go."
His voice gradually became gloomy, like the dark clouds hovering over them.
Standing on the side, Vera also noticed that his aura had changed. She subconsciously shrank hershoulders and looked at Minerva with tears in her eyes.
"Why? You have to at least tell me a reason before you stop me, right?"
Quill turned around. His eyes were icy-cold as they looked at Minerva.
"What reason do you want?"
She felt a chill in her heart. Her heart sank, and her peaceful eyes seemed to burst into anger at thismoment. She shook off Quill's hand with all her strength.
Then, she carried her skirt and ran out of the room.
"Minerva!"
Upon seeing this, Vera hurried to run after her.
Quill grabbed hold of her, and Vera screamed, "Let go of me! Minerva is running out! Let go ofme..."
"Let her go." He pressed his lips together and said faintly, "In any case, she will find out sooner orlater."
"But..." Vera started tearing up. She couldn't control herself from crying.
"If Minerva knew the truth, she would not be able to accept it."
His face was terribly gloomy, but he could do nothing about it.
At this moment... No matter what he did, it was all futile, right?novelbin
After Minerva ran out, she realized that it was already chaotic outside.
One of the reporters had come across the news and the updates that Maddox was in that plane,and then the news spread like wildfire among the guests. The reporters, who had waited for a longtime, started taking pictures madly again at the scene.
When Minerva came out, someone shouted that the bride had come out.
Then, all the reporters swarmed forward. Countless cameras and flashes were aiming towardsMinerva's face.
"Miss Hanover, I heard that the groom is not here because something happened to the plane he'sin. Is this true? Do you know this?"
"If something really happened to Mr. Yardley, will the wedding continue?"
"How long have you been waiting for him? Are you sad that something happened to your futurehusband?"
The questions were like a cold and sharp knife, stabbing right through her heart.
She had no idea of all of this!
She had been brought into the dressing room by Vera and stopped by several people when shetried to come out.
She wanted to come out to wait for Maddox, so he could see her the moment he stepped into thevenue.
But what was going on? Why were all the reporters asking her this question...
Did something happen to Maddox's flight?
How could she not know about this?
There seemed to be a buzz in her head. The flash was so dazzling, and she had her lipstickremoved, so her lips looked terribly pale. Furthermore, she was currently wearing a white dress.
With this look, she seemed like a delicate crystal that could break by the slightest touch.
But even so, the cameras were still constantly pointed at her. They squeezed forward madly, andone of them directly pointed the camera at her face.
"Miss Hanover, seeing your expression, I would guess that this is your first time hearing this. Thenwhy are you still here? Your future husband had an accident. Aren't you worried about it at all?"
"Is it a family requirement for you two to hold a wedding?"
"Miss Hanover..."
Minerva seemed to be deafened by what the reporters were asking. When the camera came over, ithit her in the head. She took a step back in pain, but those people thought she wanted to run, sothey squeezed over again.
Someone pushed Minerva in the midst of the chaos, and she fell limply onto the cold floor.
"No, it can't be..." She thought.
How could something happen to Maddox?
It's impossible...
He had promised her that he would give her a surprise, and... he had also promised to take goodcare of her and Beanie for the rest of his life.
It's impossible!
