Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 1354

He thought she was kicking up a fuss?

Vera had not expected Quill to sweep her frustrations under the carpet.

Was this a small fry to him?

"Since you think I'm fussing over nothing, then don't come to me, ever again."

After that, Vera walked into the house, slamming the door in Quill's face.

Meanwhile, Vera met her eavesdropping parents' gaze.

The three of them lapsed into an impromptu staring contest.

After some time, David scratched his nose in embarrassment and chuckled. "Vivy, it's absolutely normal for lovers to quarrel. You can be mad, but there's no need to be so harsh to him."

Vera stood stiffly in place, her expression as grim as the dead.

David continued, "Your mother and I heard your conversation with Quill. We think you sounded commanding, but..."

"Mom, Dad."

Earnestly, Vera looked at them and said, "I'm calling it quits."

Mabie was silent.

Similarly, David was speechless.

"There's no way I can be with him anymore."

Mabie had not anticipated Vera to be so adamant, even in front of them. Testing the water, she asked, "What happened?"

Vera didn't want to explain, so she shook her head and said, "Anyhow, I will never be with him ever again."

"Vivy, I've told you before. Lay it all out in the open. Don't you think it's a little too much to break up over a lover's spat?"

Too much?

Vera didn't think so after finding out she was a homewrecker. Instead, ending it was the best solution.

"I'm going to bed."

After that, she stalked into the room without any other explanation.

Mabie and David exchanged glances, after which Mabie asked, "What do you say?"

David replied, "How would I know? She does look pretty serious this time around. Should we... ask Quill what happened?"

Mabie agreed. After all, she knew how much Vera loved Quill, so there must be a reason for her to break up with him so suddenly.

As the thought cropped up in her mind, Mabie decided to quietly push open the door.

However, Vera suddenly walked out of her room and said, "Mom, Dad, go to bed. I've already made up my mind. No one's to ask about it."

Mabie's hand froze in midair.

Then, David nudged Mabie in the back. "Why don't we just leave it as it is? We'll talk after she's calmed down."

Mabie nodded. She was her daughter, after all, so she was naturally on her side.

Meanwhile, Quill had waited outside for a long time, wanting to give Vera a call. However, her phone was off, and it seemed like she was trying to test his patience.

Alas, Vera did not live alone, and he didn't want to bother her parents so late in the night.

If he had known this would happen, he would have bundled Vera directly into the car when she'd come out earlier.

He would lock her in the car and explain everything inside. Even if she were to get mad, at least they would keep it contained.

However, now...

Make up?

Impossible!

Although the smile was still hanging on Vera's face, it had obviously faded a little after listening to David's words. However, she quickly recovered and said, "No, never. I meant what I said yesterday, and it is final."

Both David and Mabie were baffled by her words.

"I know you're curious about what happened, but I don't feel like talking about it. I'll tell you guys when I feel better."

Mabie then put her hand on Vera's wrist. "Silly girl, you don't have to tell us if you don't want to. We're your parents; we won't force you to do anything. But... don't you think you might regret your decision?"

Regret?

It saddened Vera to leave Quill, and she loved him dearly. However, she refused to be his mistress while still being all c'est la vie, no matter the magnitude of her love for him.

Hence, ending the relationship was the best choice.

Vera shook her head.

"I won't regret it."

Since she was so determined, David and Mabie did not say anything else.

After that, Vera informed them that she was leaving to open up the restaurant and left.

After she left, Mabie sighed and said, "They were doing fine before; what happened? Judging from her expression, I don't think there's any chance for them to get back together."

"Forget it. Whatever will be will be."

"I wouldn't want to force her to get back together with Quill, would I? Although he's decent, we should respect Vera's decision."

"What a pity. I really like the lad too."
