Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 1220

"Huh? Message?"

Quill pursed his lips and took out his phone. He pressed it a few times. "It's dead."

The phone in his hand was indeed off. Vera took it and said, "I'll charge it for you then. Honestly, why don't you fully charge your phone before you go out? It's not a good habit. Did you bring a power bank? If not, I have two. I can give you one!"

Actually, Quill had all these things. After all, he was an extremely disciplined person. He would charge his phone every night and made sure it would last him the entire day. But... Vera stayed in the same room with him last night, so Quill... had completely forgotten about it.

He seemed to be gradually losing all that he was proud of when he was with her.

This was not good.

Quill reached out and pinched her fair cheeks. "Sure, I'll leave my phone to you in the future."

"Okay!" Vera didn't mind at all. She put the phone into her pocket directly and tried to sneak back into the room. He held her collar when she walked past him.

"Now that the phone issue has been solved, shouldn't we talk about the other problem?"

"The other problem?" Vera asked as Quill still held onto her collar.

What problem?

Vera's eyes widened. "Do you have something to tell me?"

Quill looked at her with a faint smile.

"Where were you squatting?" Quill asked.

Vera remained silent.

Vera felt something was amiss right after hearing his question. She guiltily avoided Quill's gaze and coughed softly. "I... I was just squatting..." "You were just squatting?"

"Yeah!" Vera nodded vigorously. "You weren't in the room, so I came out to wait for you. There was nowhere else to wait, so I found a random place to squat. I looked a little silly, didn't I? Hahaha, I won't squat like this next time then."

Vera laughed and tried to cover it up.

However, Quill was not easy to fool. As Vera laughed awkwardly, Quill stared at her with a slight smile, causing her to feel rather guilty. She stopped smiling and bit her lower lip awkwardly.

Vera had intended to play dumb until the end. But now that Quill was staring at her with such a gaze, she lost all confidence and could only look at him pitifully.

"Fine, I admit I deliberately squatted there. Happy?" She finally admitted. Her head drooped as she explained, "I didn't see you when I woke up, and you didn't leave me a message. So I went next door to see if you were there. Then..."

Vera paused at that; she looked to be hesitating. Thinking back, she felt something wasn't right with Lauren.

Quill had gone out, but why did Lauren pretend that there was someone else in her room? Had she deliberately wanted Vera to misunderstand? Or... Vera didn't want to think any further. She suddenly looked at Quill firmly and said, "I want to confirm something. Can you go back to the room and wait for me?"

Vera's eyes were clear. Quill saw that she had made up her mind, so he naturally didn't object. He asked, "You sure you don't need me to stay?"

Vera shook her head. "No need. I can still handle such a small matter."

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the room then."

Quill approved of what she was about to do. He also naturally believed that she could handle these things. Although Vera was very innocent, she wasn't stupid. There were some things she had to figure out herself.

Quill left almost immediately. After he had gone in, she took a deep breath. It was when she pushed her hair behind her ear that she remembered her current appearance...

Should she go back to clean herself up and then come back?

Forget it. If she went back, Lauren might have already run away. She would do it now!

With that thought, she knocked on Lauren's door.

When Lauren opened the door and

el

saw that Vera still looked the same, she was a little surprised. "Vera, didn't I tell you to go back and wash up? Why do you still look the same? You haven't even changed your clothes..."

With that, Lauren suddenly realized and asked, "You haven't gone back to your room to wash up, have you?"

However, Vera looked behind Lauren firmly. Seeing that, Lauren was a little shocked. Had she been waiting outside all this time? And she was unwilling to give up, so she came knocking again?

Was it possible that she wanted to come in and search?

No, she couldn't let her come in. If the illusion she created by chance was ruined, there might not be such a good opportunity next time.

As Lauren thought of this, she walked out and asked, "Where have you been? Why didn't you go back and change? Do you want me to go back with

you?"

Seeing that Lauren was going to

hold her arm intimately, Vera didn't refuse either on second thought, she did the same and said, "It's that I didn't go back to wash up Lauren I just found that my

toothbrush and facial cleaner

seemed to have disappeared. I guess I forgot about them when I was packing up last night, so I wanted to come and look." Content

Lauren froze hearing her words. She never imagined Vera would suddenly say something like this.

"Toothbrush? Facial cleanser?"NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

"Yeah." Vera nodded. "How can I brush my teeth without a toothbrush? And I have to use the facial cleanser to wash my face. Lauren, come and help me look for it."

With that, Vera held her arm and was going to walk inside.

It was at that moment Lauren realized what she was going to do. She stopped in her tracks and said, "Hold on."

Vera blinked and looked at her innocently, "What's wrong, Lauren?"

"You... Did you really drop your toothbrush? But it's been quite some time since you knocked earlier. Why are you only washing up now?"

Vera nodded without missing a beat, "Yes, I was still very sleepy when I went back, so I slept for a while. I just got up and was preparing to wash up, and then I found that my toothbrush and facial cleanser were gone."

Lauren searched her face as if she was verifying her words. However, Vera's gaze was clear; she didn't seem to be lying.

Was what she said true? Had she really gone back to sleep? Was it a coincidence that she couldn't find her toothbrush and cleanser when she was about to wash up, so she came back?

Even though Lauren believed her a little, she still didn't want Vera to go in and destroy the illusion she created. So, she spoke softly, "Why don't you go back first? I'll help you look for them, and then I'll bring it over to you."

Vera blinked as she looked at her. "Lauren, are you really going to come and give them to me?"
