Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 401

The Hanover family.

It was late at night, yet Quill summoned a doctor to treat the wound on Minerva's hand.

"Well, Miss Hanover, for your wound, avoid contact with water for the time being. You'd better get yourself excused from work. You will recover in a few days' time. Remember to only eat light foods for the next few days."

"Thank you very much." Quill indifferently instructed George to send the doctor home.

"Did you hear the doctor's advice?"

Minerva sat on the sofa and said impassively, "I heard it. How am I going to take a bath tonight? Are you telling me that I can't bathe for the next few days?"

Quill pondered for a while and answered directly, 'Til ask Vera to help you out."

"Well, I don't think that's necessary. In fact, I guess covering my hand will do while I take a bath later."

Quill heaved a sigh and stared silently at Minerva. She immediately felt a little embarrassed and chuckled. "Alright, I won't take a shower. I'll head upstairs to take a rest. It's been a long day."

"Alright."

When Minerva returned to her room, she found that Beanie had already fallen asleep.

She went to the bedside and gazed at Beanie. Beanie... resembled that person.

In the past five years, Quill had been asking her to return to Hidalgo. However, she didn't do so as she refused to see that person again.

She initially thought that she might not bump into him since North City was a large city. Despite that, never did she expect that... she crossed paths with him after coming back for a short while.

And they met face-to-face...

That was something that Minerva had never imagined.

Maddox.

As she thought of him, her face darkened. She stood up and walked out of the bathroom at a slow pace. Suddenly, there was a soft knock at the door.

Minerva was startled for a moment before she turned to open the door.

A servant stood outside the door, looking at her respectfully.

"Miss Minerva, are you planning to take a bath? I can help you out."

Minerva was slightly taken aback, nodding. "Then come in and help me fill up the water. Be quiet, Beanie is asleep."

The maid thought for a moment and replied softly, "Miss Minerva, how about if you go over to the guest room to take a bath? You can return once you're done with it. I'll be there to serve you."

"Alright, I'll get my clothes."

Minerva went back to her room to fetch her clothes. Next, she followed the maid into the guest room.

The maid first helped to fill up the water in the tub. After Minerva took her bath, she put on her clothes with her help.

"What time is it now?"

"Miss Minerva, it's almost twelve midnight."

It was almost twelve midnight? Minerva was unsure of Vera's whereabouts. When she returned to the room, she took out her mobile phone and attempted to unlock it clumsily, but to no avail. Her mobile phone needed to be unlocked with fingerprints, yet her fingers were all bandaged.

In the end, Minerva failed to unlock her phone. The only way was to look for Quill in the study room.

Sure enough, the lights in the study were still on.

"Quill."

"Why are you here? Why aren't you resting?" Quill frowned, staring at her with displeasure.

"Quill, my staff are working overtime today and I'm not there with them. Will it be unsafe for Vera to go home alone? Can you..."
