Vera was truly so anxious that she was about to cry. The rims of her eyes turned red. When she heard Quill gently agreeing with her, she realized that she was overreacting.
She quickly let go and stepped back from him. After that, she packed the food back into the bag again.
They didn't speak for a moment, and the antechamber was completely silent.
All of a sudden, someone knocked on the door. Juliette stood by the door with an odd expression.
"Are you done with your meal? President Hanover, you have a video conference in five minutes. The notes have been prepared." Quill and Vera were silent.
Quill frowned and Vera turned around to look at Juliette.
"Hadn't he just finished a meeting? There's another one now? What a hectic schedule. Moreover, he hasn't had tto eat since the last meeting. If he continues with the video conference, will he skip his lunch?" Vera thought.
"I know. I'll be there in a minute." Juliette received the answer she needed, so she waved at Vera then left.

Seeing that Vera was about to leave, Quill wanted to ask her to stay and wait for him here. However, she had already waited for him for a long time, she even fell asleep, so there was no point to keep her here.
Quill hesitated for a moment and said, "Your leg is injured; let Nash send you back. Wait for him here for fifteen minutes." Then, he called Nash. Nash rushed over as soon as he received the call. Quill left the room to attend his video conference. Before he did, he asked her.
"Will you chere again?" "Huh?" "Tomorrow." Vera blinked and said dryly, "Yeah... I think so...
"All right." When he left, Vera realized that her heartbeat had inexplicably raced again. Was Quill... inviting her over? An idea gradually formed in her mind, and it was something that she never dared to entertain in the past. She knew what it was, but she didn't dare to ponder. All she wanted to do was cherish the moment.
After waiting in the reception room for about fifteen minutes, Nash cto pick her up. He wore a shirt and a thin jacket. He smiled at Vera from outside the door. "Miss Vera, President Hanover toldto give you a ride home." Vera felt a familiar feeling when she saw Nash because she used to sit in his car often with Minerva. When she compared her attire to his, she felt awkward.
Although winter was about to end, the weather was still cold. Many people had changed into thinner jackets while Vera was still wearing a down jacket with a t-shirt on the inside.
It was convenient for her because she could just take off the jacket if she felt too hot or put it back on if she felt too cold.
However, she could be easily judged as a lunatic because speople were already wearing short-sleeved clothing. "Nash, sorry to bother you. And thank you." Then, Vera threw the pasta away in the trash can downstairs. Initially, she wanted to head home, but after thinking about it, she felt that she should be helping in the restaurant. In the end, she asked Nash to send her there.
After arriving at her restaurant, Mabie saw Vera coming down from the car, and she instantly narrowed her eyes to observe the older man in the driver's seat. Then, she pulled Vera to one side after she cin.
"Who drove you back here?" After being asked that question, Vera's expression changed slightly, and she asked, "Nobody. What is it?" Mabie did not answer.
Seeing her daughter dodging her eyes, Mabie grabbed her collar and said, "What's with this attitude? Why are you hiding it? I saw the person driving was an older man. Are you..." "Mom!" Vera knew Mabie too well. Hearing her words, she was able to guess what she was thinking, so she immediately stopped her and said: "That is an elder that I respect deeply, please do not make assumptions." "What are you talking about? What did I say?" Vera said angrily, "Who knows what nasty things you were about to say if I didn't stop you. I had to inform you beforehand." "An elder that you respect a lot? The man was driving such a nice car, so tellwho it is." Vera didn't want to talk about it. "My leg hurts. I'm going to rest upstairs." "Con, givean answer! Why are you rushing off?" Mabie said so, but considering that Vera's leg was injured, she couldn't bear to chase after her for an answer. She was afraid that if she caught up with Vera, she would try to run. If she ran, the injury on her leg would take a longer tto recover.
Minerva was due to deliver soon. Recently, her stomach had gotten so big that she couldn't even bend down. It was a challenge for her every tshe tried to lie down in bed or get up.
Back when she was pregnant with Beanie, her belly was not as big.
This time, she felt that she had a ball in her belly, and most importantly, Minerva felt that her limbs and neck, and even her face had bloated up at an alarming speed.
Because of that, Minerva even went to Vera to complain about her worries. After Vera went online to check on Minerva's condition, she comforted her.
"I heard that the second pregnancy would be different from the first.
Many mothers gained more weight after giving birth to their second d, and it's harder for them to get child, and back into shape. But you should have more faith in yourself, you'll be fine after giving birth." Have faith in herself? H*Il no.

Minerva didn't think Maddox was a superficial person because they had been through a lot, and it would be impossible for him to despise her just because she gained sweight.
However, if she were to let her beloved see her in an appearance that even she couldn't accept, it would be a bad memory to have. Even if she were able to slim down again, the image of her being overweight would still be in his mind. Minerva wanted to cry the more she thought about it. She began to chase Maddox away when it was tto sleep. He was forced to sleep in the guest room, away from her.
Maddox felt worried because of her sudden change in emotions, but he thought that she was just throwing a tantrum, and it would be over in a couple of days.
However, he didn't expect it to go on for days and Minerva's temper had worsened.
Not only did she not allow him to enter the bedroom, but she didn't want to see him either.
Maddox felt frustrated about it because he couldn't see her, and he
wasn't able to ask her what exactly was going on. Since Minerva was pregnant, he didn't dare to barge in e because he was worried that he would upset her even more. After sthought, Maddox decided to go to Abigail for advice.
Abigail was also confused when she heard it. "What's the matter? Did you do something wrong? Did you flint with someone else during her pregnancy, so she's ignoring you? Maddex Yardley, I'm telling you, if you really dared to do such a thing, I will break your legs on behalf of your mother." Maddox was flabbergasted.
His face was gloomy and irritated.
"So is that it? Tell me." Abigail intended to torture him until he confessed the truth if he wasn't willing to tell her. "Don't you think you're being tic? What I'm worried about now is her. Stop fooling around. Do I look like I would do such a thing?" "Who knows?" Abigail said teasingly, but she did know that Maddox was not that kind of person. After all, not every woman could catch his eye. In all these years, Minerva was the only one.
