Kelly brightened as soon as she heard that. "Do you still remember me?"
Beanie nodded.
Kelly was overjoyed. She reached into her bag at once and she took out a lollipop this time. She then handed it to Beanie.
Beanie hesitated for a moment and stretched out his hands to take the lollipop. He nodded his head to Kelly to express his gratitude.
"Thank you, Pretty Sister."
"Such a well- brought up child. You're being too modest," Kelly murmured.
Indeed, Beanie was the child of an outstanding individual. He was well-educated. It seemed that... she had misunderstood Minerva previously.
Despite that, who was the father of this child?
"Why did you return to the company at this time? Isn't it almost time to get off from work?"
When Kelly mentioned this, Vera gave her a sorrowful look. "Don't mention it. Minerva is still in the office. I went to the school nearby to pick Beanie up just now. We're going upstairs to wait for her."
Upon hearing her words, Kelly could not resist gaping at her. "She has been drawing the design since morning?"
Honestly speaking, Minerva trod the tough path in order to become the champion. As for Kelly, she would not be able to withstand fasting and locking herself up in a room all day long to design like what Minerva did.
"Well, salute! Then I'll make a move first. Little one, we'll meet again next time."
"Goodbye, Sister."
After Kelly left, Vera could not help complaining, "You were so arrogant before. Why did you change your attitude?"
However, Vera regained her senses in no time. Subsequently, she went upstairs with Beanie to wait for Minerva.
When they arrived upstairs, they bumped into Minerva.
"Beanie." When Minerva saw Beanie, she quickly squatted down and hugged him. "I was scared to death. I just remembered that you went to school today."
"Mommy, someone else would have taken me away before you realized it!" Beanie said in a gravely tone.
Minerva felt extremely guilty. She pinched his cheeks. "It's my fault. I'm sorry, Beanie. I will remember to pick you up next time."
Beanie extended his arms to hug Minerva in the neck tenderly. "Mommy, you must do it."
"It's a deal."
Minerva stretched out her hand and made a pinky promise with Beanie. Vera couldn't help rolling her eyes at the sight of it.
"Beanie, I think it's better for you to make a pinky promise with Auntie Vera than to do it with your mommy. After all, your mommy is a workaholic. She doesn't even need to eat or sleep when she works. How can she take care of you?"
When Beanie heard Vera's words, his expression changed at once.
"Mommy, you haven't had dinner today?"
Only then did Minerva realize that she was starving. She rubbed her tummy awkwardly. "It looks... like I didn't eat at all."
Vera heard her and almost wanted to curse. "I've been waiting for you the whole day. I don't care. It's your treat today. We're going out for a big feast!"
"Going out for a feast?" Minerva pondered for a moment. After that, she took out a hat from her bag and put it on Beanie's head. "Let's go. I'll treat you all to a feast today."
As soon as he heard about food, Beanie's eyes glistened with excitement. He immediately hugged Minerva's thigh. "Mommy, you are forgiven."
"You only know how to eat... I have no idea whose genes you're carrying."
Beanie blinked his eyes. "Mommy, you don't like eating a lot. I must be like daddy."
Upon hearing that, her smile froze for a second. Moments later, she let out a chuckle and said, "Alright, no matter who you look like, you are my good child. Let's go."
Sam had sent back her car to her. Thus, Minerva drove the car, while Vera and Beanie sat in the back seat. They were heading towards a highly rated restaurant they found on the Internet for dinner.
