Minerva knocked off shortly after she returned to the company.
She had spent the whole day outside the office and had yet to get her car back. Hence, she had to take a taxi back together with Vera.
When Vera heard about the rear-end collision, her eyes widened instantly. "Rear- end collision? What happened to you?"
Minerva felt bad about it, smiling faintly. "I'm probably not skillful in driving."
"Aren't you skillful? Don't think you can hide from me. You have been driving cautiously all these while. There must be something on your mind."
When she heard about this, Minerva was glued to the spot. Indeed, Vera knew her too well.
They understood each other very well as they had been friends for the past five years.
Minerva gave her a slight smile.
"Tell me the truth. Did that b*stard, Maddox, do something to you?"
As Vera mentioned about Maddox, Minerva recalled his words this afternoon. He said that he was married, yet he behaved strangely toward her, and even...
"No," she denied immediately at the thought of it.
"No? Then why did you hit other people's car?"
"At that time... I was thinking about the design. Is Helen going to participate in the press conference within a few days?"
Minerva changed the subject at once. As for Vera, when she heard Minerva mention Helen's conference, her eyes sparkled with delight. "That's right. The outfits will be ready soon. When the time comes, they'll be sent to our company first, and then well send them over to Helen. Minerva, this is our first completed outfit ever since we established our company."
"Yes, it is very memorable. Remember to indicate the designer's name Kelly and take a picture for her."
Vera could not resist curling her lips. "Although the outfit was designed by her, she was under your guidance. Besides, she is working in our company. It's fine to indicate her name, yet it will be better to add our company name before her name."
Minerva smiled helplessly. "Why are you so fussy?"
"Humph, I'm not being fussy. Evidently, it's to make a name for our company!"
"Well, let's discuss it with Kelly at that time."
"Alright."
The two of them chatted for a while before boarding the bus.
Minerva hadn't been on a bus for ages. It was not convenient for her to take a bus in high heels, especially at rush hour.
Therefore, when Minerva and Vera returned to the Hanover family home, both of them looked a little worn out.
The two glanced and smiled at each other.
It was the weekend the next day. Thus, Minerva slept in.
The weather was good that day. Since she was free, she decided to bring Beanie to the school that she had previously visited. If Beanie liked it as well, she would enroll him for a week temporarily.
"Mommy, are we really going to school today?"
"Yes." While Minerva was tidying up Beanie's clothes, he couldn't help asking while raising his neck.
"Mommy, you won't leave me in school today, right?" At this point, Beanie held Minerva's arm pitifully with a look of grievance on his face.
Upon hearing his words, Minerva was stunned for a moment. She then let out a chuckle. "How could that be? Today, I'll bring you to see whether you like the school. If you do, you will be there for a week to familiarize yourself."
Beanie refused to attend school. He had learned all the knowledge from the kindergarten by his own and he didn't feel the need to attend school.
However, Minerva had no knowledge about it. When she noticed him holding her arm, she thought that he was just being clingy, so she held his hand and walked out. "Don't think too much. This school is close to my company. Then... I will pick you up after work and we will go home together."
