"Unless it was not you who said those words?" He raised his eyebrows and his sharp gaze fell on Vera.
She unconsciously took two steps back and she played with her fingers. "I did say that, but... Didn't you also suspect it? You must also feel that something was wrong and that was why you askedto call Jerry over right? To be honest, if he is wrapped up like this, who would be able to recognize him? But... I just have this feeling that he is not Young Master Yardley." Upon hearing this, Quill pursed his thin lips and his gaze becdeep and profound.
He also felt that he might not be Maddox but that guy was wrapped in gauze, so it might just have been himself overthinking it.
"Don't tell Minerva about this for the tbeing. You'll go back and pretend that nothing happened. We'll talk about it after we confirm his identity." She nodded. "Sure." Minerva went to the bathroom and when she was back she found that Juliette was gone. She heard voices from the balcony thus she glanced over. She found her talking on the phone on the balcony. During this period of time, she had been running back and forth with Quill. She was really occupied.
Minerva found a chair and sat down lightly. She looked out of the window in a daze.
When Juliette was done with the phone call, she saw Minerva sitting on the chair. It was already winter, but she only had a thin piece of clothing on her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJuliette was dumbfounded for a moment. She quickly turned around, grabbed a coat and draped it over Minerva's body.
"It's getting cold. Be careful not to catch a cold. You have just recovered so you should be careful." She helped Minerva put on the coat like an older sister. Minerva lifted her head to look at her.
Juliette smiled faintly. She reached out her hand, pinched her face, and then said softly, "You are still so young. Don't think too much. There are many things that you need to just let nature take its course." "Let nature take its course?" "In the past five years, I told myself that I'll let nature take its course, but I didn't expect that after five years, nothing changed. There are a lot of things I just couldn't let go of." "Isn't this a good thing? Your relationship with Young Master Yardley is something a lot of people are envious of and it's good that you didn't have a change of heart." "But now, we don't even know where he is." "This might be the gods giving you a test." Juliette thought for a moment and decided to take another approach to the conversation.
Sure enough, the word test drew Minerva's attention. She raised her head and she seemed a little puzzled. "A test!?" "Yes, it's a test. In fact, I don't really know you very well, but I do vaguely understand what you are thinking. I'm very envious of you. After all, you can be with the person you like. Even if it didn't last for a long time, you experienced it. Therefore, that is why your life is very meaningful." Speaking of this, Minerva thought of the twhen Juliette fell in love with her brother, Quill.
After that, she saw Juliette get married to sother man. Minerva didn't know much of the details but judging from her expression, she seemed to not have any affection for her brother anymore? "You..." Unintentionally, she found out about the secret in Juliette's heart. Minerva felt a little embarrassed and her emotions were instantly led astray. At that very moment, she had totally forgotten about Maddox.
Juliette smirked helplessly and sat down in front of her. Then, she picked up the kettle in front of her and poured a glass of warm water for Minerva. "Come, drink swater first." Minerva's expression was sluggish as she drank the cup of water.
"In fact, you must want to askwhy I like your brother but I married someone else right?" Minerva raised her head and looked at her. She was really curious.
"Actually, it's not as complicated as it seems. Although I like him, he doesn't like me. I can't force him to be with me, can I? Even if I really have a way to force him to be with me, he still doesn't like me. Then what's the point? In addition, I like him, but it doesn't mean that I want to spend my whole life waiting for him. I think it is the greatest sincerity to him that I'm still working by his side at this age." Upon hearing this, Minerva seemed to have understood a little and nodded her head.
Juliette still wanted to say something, but Minerva took the initiative to say, "Secretary Sharpio, please stop saying these things." When Juliette said this herself, it was inevitable that she had to bring up the past and she had to go through with all the emotions again.
There was no need for that.
Juliette was taken aback. She never expected that Minerva would actually interrupt her. It seemed like she was quite considerate as well.
"In fact, I just want to say that I don't have feelings for your brother anymore. Perhaps it is because I feel like I can never get him, thus, I gradually feel that he is not that important." Of course, Minerva knew what she was trying to convey. On the surface, she was clear about it, but in reality, she was trying to persuade her.
If Maddox really... Then, she should look at it with an open mind.
Thinking of this, she felt a little upset. She lightly nodded her head and said, "I know, Secretary Sharpio. By the way, I saw you on the phone just now. Is there a lot of things going on in the company?" "It's just a small matter. It's fine." "If it's just a small matter, then there's no need for you to be involved. You should be very exhausted from following my brother back and forth?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"It's nothing indeed, Miss Minerva.
This is my job. As for President m For President Hanover, he doesn't care even if it is painful and exhausting, as long as he can accompany his sister."
"Secretary Sharpio, when you return this time, you should persuade my m brother not to cover again. don't want to see you guys working bec so tirelessly because of me. If you and my brother fall sick because of this, what am I supposed to do?" Juliette said, "Well, I'm afraid that I can't persuade President Hanover. If you really don't want him to come, I think it's better for you to persuade him yourself." Knock, knock...
There was a knock on the door. Both of them turned their heads and happened to see Vera quietly pushing open the door. Then, she poked her head in and cin.
After Vera poked her head in and looked into Minerva's eyes, she instantly shrank back again, as if she had done something wrong.
"Vera? Where did you go?" Seeing her, Juliette stood up. "Just now, when I wanted to look for you, I couldn't find you anywhere."
Vera, who had been called, had no choice but to cin. She smiled awkwardly at the two of them and answered in a low voice, "I haven't gone anywhere. I was just bored so I went out for a walk." She definitely wouldn't say that she was going out with Quill. If she said that then they were going to find out the matter regarding Maddox.
Furthermore, she was still not sure if that person was even him! Minerva found that Vera's actions seemed weird.
"What's wrong with you?" X
