Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 432

Vera and Minerva had known each other for so many years, so how could she not understand Minerva?

Minerva obviously had a plan. If she had really asked them both to leave, she must have caught on to something.

Vera had been by her side for a long time, so it was hardly difficult to guess the identity of the 'big shot' upstairs, especially after giving it some thought.

"Auntie Vera, aren't we going to have a feast?" Beanie asked, his eyes as round as the moon.

"Well have it another day. Your mommy has some urgent work to attend to today, so we'd have to go first."

Beanie's eyes twinkled, as if light had flashed across it. He nodded his head in obedience, and stood still as Vera put his hat on for him. She then took his hand in hers and left.

Naturally, Maddox's eyes were fixed on them.

As they stood up, Maddox noticed that there was a child in front of Minerva. He did not give it much thought and quickly wrote it off as the child of her colleague.

Though he could not quite understand why, his gaze followed the child closely as he was leaving with Vera. Upon reaching the restaurant’s entrance, the child with the hat suddenly raised his head, revealing half of his face.

With that single glance at Beanie, Maddox's expression changed suddenly.

That child...

At this moment, some people from down below had pushed through the doors and entered.

The sound of the door interrupted Maddox's train of thoughts. He rushed back to his senses and callously looked at the men who had just entered.

The looks on their faces changed when they met his gaze. They took a few steps forward.

"Young Master Yardley..."

They looked down and noticed that her two companions had left the restaurant. Panic set in and they hurriedly explained, "We didn't force them to leave. We only invited her to join us upstairs."

Upon hearing this, Maddox raised his eyebrows, "Did you tell her about me?"

"Of course not," they said, waving their hands. "We only told her that there was a 'big shot' upstairs."

They then narrated the whole incident to Maddox, including what Minerva had said about having him personally invite her over for dinner.

As they explained the situation, their eyes attentively observed Maddox's expression. They had even planned to teach Minerva a lesson if Maddox was truly mad at her.

However, Maddox only wore a blank look on his face and remained stoically calm.

At that moment, they could not read Maddox's

mind.

One of them wanted to sound him out, so he said angrily, "This woman has crossed the line. Who does she think she is? How dare she ask Young Master Yardley to invite her in person? Young Master Yardley, don't worry, I'll get my men to bring her here right now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to wave a signal to his underlings.

Maddox's gaze instantly swept over them. "Who gave you the permission to do that?"

"Young Master Yardley?"

A second later, Maddox turned over to look at Minerva through the casement window, his lips curled as he thought, "Should I personally invite her?"

It seemed that she had probably figured out who he was.

Minerva stayed right in her seat for a while. She intently watched the seconds go by, working out in her head that Vera and Beanie should be well away by now. She then got up to leave.

As she was standing up, a pang of light-headedness crept into her head, almost causing her to fall forward. Fortunately, she had reached out and grabbed hold of a chair to support herself.

Minerva shook the dizziness away. She had not experienced this in a long while. Perhaps the moment was too overwhelming for her.

She must leave this place quickly and grab a bite to eat somewhere else.
