Quill had no idea that he had already becthe topic of discussion between his subordinates. He brought Vera out for a meal and sent her back.
He gave Minerva a call on the way back, and they booked a private room in a restaurant.
Minerva cover on her own. At first, Maddox wanted to tag along, but she didn't agree to it. She felt that what she wanted to talk about was a serious matter, and it wouldn't be appropriate for Maddox to follow.
If Maddox followed, Beanie would definitely want to tag along too.
Therefore, in the end, Minerva went alone. Quill went to pick her up.
The siblings ordered a few dishes and chatted as they ate.
It had been a very long tsince they had a meal together like that. Quill used to be an overprotective brother, and he doted on Minerva particularly after he found her. He wanted to give her everything. But after Minerva found the love of her life, she spent nearly all her twith Maddox. Therefore, their chances of meeting up had becrare.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMinerva lamented at the fact that they were able to spend ttogether again. She suddenly remembered how Quill would fly in and out of the country frequently back then. She had just given birth to Beanie at that time, and Vera had only started liking Quill.
Thinking of that, Minerva couldn't help but smile.
"What's so funny?" Seeing Minerva smile, his mood softened, and his tone was also exceptionally gentle.
Minerva said softly, "It's nothing. I was just thinking of the past." 'The past?" "Yeah. When you just found me. You were busy with work, yet you'd still fly to where I was. You were much skinnier back then, but you never had any complaints." At the mention of the past, Quill felt emotional, too.
After stime, he smiled lightly and said, "It's nothing. You're my only sister. It's my responsibility to take care of you." "Yeah. I was really afraid you wouldn't get married back then. But now, I don't have to worry anymore." Speaking of that, Quill fell into deep thought. He didn't answer her; he only took sservings for Minerva. They ate silently for a while.
Minerva suddenly asked, "Quill, how are you planning to deal with Yulia's issue?" Quill did not have much emotion when he heard this, "Huh?" Minerva laughed a little and said, "I mean, she's down and out, but our families used to be close. Are you really not going to lend her a helping hand?" Quill pursed his lips and then explained to her lightly, "Yulia is just like Mr. Maxwell. She really meant it when she said she didn't need my help. If I help her without her consent, it might hurt her even more." They had spent sttogether in the past. Hence Quill knew what Yulia was like.
Listening to his words, Minerva was on high alert; she squinted.
"You're familiar with Yulia?" "Yulia?" Quill looked at her helplessly and corrected her, "She is older than you, Minerva. She's a family friend. You should call her Miss Yulia out of respect." Minerva shrugged and said, "I do call her that in front of her. I'm just saying so now for convenience's sake. Besides, it's just a title, it doesn't mean anything. Why are you so worked up over this?" Hearing this, Quill frowned slightly and said, "What do you mean a title doesn't mean anything? Our family used to be close with the Maxwell family. Mr. Maxwell was..." "Quill." Minerva interrupted him, "Did you have an engagement with Yulia?" Quill was at a loss for words.
Silence filled the table.
Minerva didn't continue to eat. Instead, she stared at Quill and said, "Did you?" Quill pursed his lips. He paused for a moment before giving her more food, "It's a thing of my childhood. So many years have passed, no one brought it up ever again. The engagement is not valid." "Not valid?" Minerva blinked and said, "Was it only a verbal engagement, or did you guys exchange any keepsake?" "No." Quill shook his head, "As far as I know, we've never exchanged any keepsake. It was just a joke amongst the adults. Although they talked about it a few times, they never implemented it officially." "Is that why you never took this seriously?" Minerva asked.
Quill nodded, "It's non-existent. Why should I care?" His expression showed that he really didn't care about it. However, Minerva remembered what Yulia had told Jennifer that day. Her emotions and the look in her eyes showed that she was serious about it.
QUMS She had obviously taken it to heart.
Moreover, the reason she cto see Quill after being down and out was not to seek help but rather to only have a look at him.
At the thought of this, Minerva felt like she had an answer in her heart.
She looked at Quill and said slowly, "You don't care about it, but what if Yulia had taken it seriously and even cared about it?"
Hearing that, Quill becconfused.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't think so. She has never brought e has never it up. Besides, we hadn't kept in touch for so many years." Men were as straightforward as ever. They could never understand the complexity of a woman's heart. It was the same, even for her brother. Minerva couldn't help but want to ridicule Quill.
On second thought, her mister was probably like that as well. Perhaps all men were like that.
She sighed helplessly and said, "Quill, you really don't understand women, do you? Just because she never mentioned it doesn't mean she doesn't care." Hearing that, Quill finally understood why his sister cto look for him.
"This is the reason you clooking forearlier?" "What? You don't think this is important?" Quill looked at her helplessly.
"I thought you wanted to have a meal with me. I didn't think it'd be about this. Don't worry, I'll deal with it properly." "Then, can you tellhow you are planning to deal with this?" Minerva asked nosily.
Quill fell silent.
"You don't even know whether she cares about the engagement or not. How do you suppose you'll deal with this?" "You're overthinking this, Minerva." "Am I?" Minerva smiled lightly, "Then, can you tellwhy she clooking for you after she's down and out? If she hadn't cto seek help, then what's her reason?" Quill was stumped.
"Don't tellshe still has the tand energy to catch up with old liv friends when she's living so om miserably. Why do don't I ask her if she has met with anyone else for you?" Quill pursed his lips, and looked at Minerva seriously.
"You can't answer me, can you? Why don't I do it for you? It is because she Q cares about the engagement, and she cares about you. So she clooking for you as soon as everything was settled." X "Minerva..." "So, are you still going to tellit doesn't matter?" Like RICH WOMEN? These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming these rich women will persue you.
