It was Monday. After sending Beanie to school, Quill drove Minerva to the company.
In fact, both of their timings were not exactly the same. Beanie needed to reach school by half past seven, while Minerva was supposed to clock in at eight in the morning. Thus, she would reach office about half an hour earlier. However, it didn't matter if she reached the office half an hour earlier as she was the boss anyway.
After getting out of the car, Quill stuck his head out of the window. "Your car..." "By the way, Quill, I forgot to tell you that I was involved in a rear-end collision two days ago, so... I will ask about the status of car repair later. Once it is ready for collection, I will send you a message." Quill's brows knitted as soon as he heard about it. He studied her for a moment, asking with displeasure, "Two days ago? Why didn't you tell me?" "I didn't get injured at that time. Moreover, I was the one who collided into another person's car. So, don't worry." "Is it settled?" "Hmm," Minerva replied with a sound before nodding.
Quill felt relieved. "Alright then. I'll make a move first." "Quill, you don't have to pick us up in the afternoon. The car should be fixed by today." Quill nodded and left without saying anything further.
After he left, Minerva and Vera went in together. The office was particularly quiet with only the cleaners and security guards around.

Minerva instantly felt sleepy when she saw Vera yawning. She couldn't bear to see Vera getting up early as well, so she said, "Let's buy an apartment near the school." Upon hearing her words, Vera widened her eyes and cover to hold her arm. "Really? But the apartments near the school should be very expensive." Minerva flashed a smile. "My savings should be enough." "Will we go broke after buying it?" Minerva cast a glance at her. "What do you think?" Vera pouted her lips, replying, "Buy it. It's yours anyway, not mine. I'll live with you after you buy it. It's not a big deal. We'll spend more prudently on meals in future." "Aren't you a little silly? Do we only know how to spend money instead of earning it? We need to invest money in many areas since we cback to set up our company. We must work hard to reap profits. Otherwise... well probably have to spend a lot of money in future." Vera was tongue-tied.
The two of them went upstairs together. As they had not started to work yet, Vera hurried to the computer and browsed it.
"Is it a must to find a house near the school? Or near to our company?" S~EaRch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"I'm fine with both." Minerva pondered about it for a moment, then smiled faintly. "No matter if it's in the vicinity of the company or the school, it's pretty close to us." Vera searched for houses at once. She was quick and efficient as she had been living abroad for many years. They immediately took a liking to a unit in a nearby residential area because they were not particularly picky. Both of them made an appointment to visit the unit when they finished work.
When it was tto work, everyone cto the company one after another. Minerva started to work on the designs as well. She had sinspiration on Janice's design, so she planned to cout with the draft that day and hand it over to Janice for review.
Minerva preferred to work alone when she was working on her design. Thus, she specifically ordered Vera not to look for her unless there was anything important. She would go out only after she was done with it.
The door of the office had been closed all the time. There was a sudden knock on the door.
Minerva's thoughts were interrupted by the sound. She unconsciously furrowed her brows. "Who is it?" "Me!" Vera's voice sounded from outside.
Vera? What was she doing here at this moment? However, Minerva knew Vera very well. If there weren't any important matters, Vera wouldn't be looking for her at this time.
As she thought of this, she replied softly, "Cin." Vera opened the door and entered with a guilty look. She then sneaked to Minerva.
"Someone is looking for you." Minerva asked, "Who's looking for me?" "You-know-who!" "What are you doing?" Minerva stared at her amusingly. "Even so, you're not..." As she spoke, Minerva seemed to have thought of someone. She paused for a moment, shivering. "Maddox?" Seeing that Minerva mentioned his ncalmly, Vera widened her eyes at once. "Aren't you surprised? You sounded indifferent when you mentioned his name. But... he isn't the one looking for you, it's... his assistant!" Maddox's assistant? Wasn't that the case? Minerva put down the pen in her hand, speaking gently, "Please bring him here." "He's not going to cup. He said he would wait for you downstairs." Minerva had no choice but to get to her feet and she walked out. Vera was glued to the spot, remaining motionless. Minerva turned her head and glanced at her. "You're an old friend of his after all. Aren't you going?" As soon as she heard Minerva, she wore a strange expression. She shook her head. "No, you can go by yourself." "Alright then." Minerva turned around and left.
After she left, Vera couldn't help cupping her cheek.

She immediately recalled the incident whereby she got drunk and acted wildly in front of him five years ago. Therefore, she still felt extremely embarrassed meeting Sam even after such a long time. Sam didn't mention a word about it, yet... Vera clearly remembered it at that time. It was indeed too embarrassing! Hence, she refused to meet Sam again! Sam waited downstairs. When Minerva walked towards him, he finally had the chance to size up this woman whom he had not seen in five years.
It had been five years since he last saw her. Never did he expect that she would look even more elegant and charming. The he young lady who used to be timid and stubborn had long beca capable and wise woman.
Out of his expectation, a person could change a lot in a few years.
"Young.."
When Minerva ccloser, Sam almost blurted out "Young Madam!" Young Madan but he stopped just in time. However, Minerva could tell what he was trying to say. Her expression changed slightly, but she quickly reacted.
"Long tno see, Sam." Minerva was surprisingly calm when she met Sam. She even smiled at him.
Sam paused for a moment and laughed, yet it was rather restrained. "I should have guessed that it was you." X
