Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 397

After arriving at the address, when Minerva and Vera got out of the car, Alberg reminded them again, "Do you really want to enter? Aren't you afraid? Why don't you stop going in and I'll fetch you both back for free?"

Upon hearing his words, Minerva looked at Alberg gratefully. "Thank you. However, we are looking for someone urgently. Hence, we have to go in."

"Alright, but be careful."

"Thank you. Have a safe journey!" Vera said loudly to Alberg, waving to him.

As Vera wanted to enter, she was stopped by Minerva.

"What's the matter?"

Minerva stood at the roadside, beginning to take off her jacket.

Vera was dumbstruck as soon as she saw this. "Minerva, what are you trying to do?"

Minerva took off her jacket and creased it. She motioned for Vera to take off hers as well. Minerva then creased the clothes on herself as well.

"What... What are we going to do?"

"This is the demolition area. If we dress in such a manner, what will they think of us?" As she spoke, she looked at Vera's bag. "Do you have the makeup remover?"

Vera nodded. "Yes, I have it."

"Give it to me."

Vera passed the makeup remover to her. Minerva then took it and applied it on her face directly. Vera's mouth twitched. "You really go all out. Is it really necessary to do so?"

It was easy for Minerva to remove her light makeup. They were bare- faced after removing their makeup.

"That should be enough. Let's go."

The two of them walked in together.

The reason why the demolition site could remain for such a long time was due to the people there. Therefore, they must be careful going in.

They found it difficult to locate the place.

After Minerva and Vera entered the building, they attracted all the attention of the people. Although they had already removed their makeup, they obviously didn't fit in with the people there.

"The way they look at us is terrifying... Are we going to be alright?" Vera's hair stood on end when she was being stared at by them. She subconsciously tightened her grip on Minerva's sleeve.

"They are merely looking at us. Don't be afraid."

Compared to Vera, Minerva appeared to be much more calm. She flipped open the papers. "His house number is not stated. We need to ask someone where he lives."

Upon hearing her words, Vera had her eyes widened in terror.

"I didn't get you wrong, did I? You want to ask those people. They won't do us any harm just by looking at us. However, I feel that we will get into trouble if we approach them."

As Vera was trembling on the spot, Minerva had already taken the initiative to approach an old lady with a hunched back. She came back to her senses and quickly followed Minerva's footsteps.

"Hello." Minerva smiled kindly, asking the old lady gently, "Do you know Zachary Lowell?"

She was already on her guard when Minerva came to her. When she heard Zachary's name, she took a step back right away, shaking her head. "I don't know this person. Don't ask me."

Minerva was at a loss for words.

Vera leaned over and whispered in Minerva's ear, "It's obvious that they know each other."

Minerva smiled calmly. "Grandma, don't misunderstand us. We mean no harm. I'm Zachary's colleague. I heard that something happened to his family. Everyone is worried about him, so they entrusted me to come over with my friend to find out about it."
