Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 1221

Seeing that Vera believed her, she smiled and nodded.

"Yeah, go and change your clothes first. I will bring your toothbrush and facial cleanser over by the time you're done."

Vera seemed to be very happy. She immediately nodded and said, "Thank you, Lauren. You can bring it over later. I'll head back first."

Lauren let out a sigh of relief as Vera left. She was really afraid that Vera would rush in without a care.

She was really a foolish young girl, and she was easy to deal with.

But why was Vera so forgetful? She had even left her toothbrush and facial cleanser behind. Now she had to deliver it to her. Lauren was furious, but to maintain her facade, she looked for Vera's toiletries.

Lauren searched the bathroom high and low but couldn't find Vera's things.

There wasn't a toothbrush nor a facial cleanser.

Lauren put her hands on the sink and looked at herself in the mirror with a serious expression on

her face.

Something wasn't right. If she had really left her things behind, it was impossible that she couldn't find either one. What did it mean?

It meant that Vera tricked her!

She lied to her!

After realizing it, Lauren clenched her fist. D*mn it! How could she be fooled by a girl who was so much younger than her?

Almost immediately, Lauren figured out why Vera was making fun of her!

Had she found out?

But how did she find out? She didn't let her in...

With that thought, she decided to go out and have a look.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

After Vera confirmed her speculation, she went back. As soon as she entered the room, Quill asked her to have some milk. But Vera had gone to Lauren as soon as she got up; she hadn't done anything, let alone brush her teeth. How could she drink milk?

So Vera waved her hand and went to brush her teeth.

Halfway through, Vera heard a knock on the door. Thinking it was Lauren, she quickly finished up in the bathroom.

As she was about to answer, Quill blocked the door. "Eat first."

"But..." Vera pointed at the door. "Someone is knocking. I..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Quill immediately grabbed her wrist, brought her to a chair, and sat her down.

"Eat first. Everything else can wait." Quill ordered.

He shoved a glass of milk into Vera's hand and said, "You have to finish it."

Vera blinked; Quill didn't seem to be kidding. She suddenly remembered someone knocking at the door while she was still half- asleep in the morning. She had asked Quill about it, but he said she misheard it and told her to go back to sleep.

Quill wore the same expression as he did then.

Could it be that...

Her eyes widened as she asked, "Lauren came over in the morning, didn't she?"

Quill glanced at her with a faint smile and nodded slightly.

When Quill admitted it, Vera felt a little chagrined. She had thought she was dreaming; who would have thought she actually came knocking? Vera stared at him suspiciously.

"Why did she come so early in the morning?"

Quill sipped the fruit juice leisurely as he replied, "Who knows?"

He hadn't intended to ask her her purpose of visiting anyway. He only warned her not to knock on the door so as not to disturb Vera. So he couldn't answer Vera's question.

"You don't know?" Vera looked at him confusedly. "Didn't you open the door? She didn't tell you?"

Quill stared at her helplessly. "You're supposed to be eating. Why are you talking so much?"

She had been scolded...

Vera could only drink her milk gloomily.

The sound of knocking had stopped earlier. But it had started again.

Even though the knocks were loud and clear Quill looked exceptionally laid back. If it wasn't that Vera could hear it, and she was with him, she really would've thought that she was imagining things.

Compared to Quill, Vera was rather guilty. She couldn't have her breakfast with ease, but she was afraid that Quill would call her back if she got up, so she wolfed it all down.

After she finished it with some difficulty, Vera wiped her mouth with a napkin and got up.

"I'm done. I'll go have a look now!"

She threw the napkin into the trash can on the side and ran toward the door.

Quill shook his head as he watched

her rush to the door. He thought that Vera needed to steady herself she needn't rush for someone unimportant. Wouldn't she just w herself out if she rushed at these kinds of situations every time?

Therefore, Quill decided that he would have to do something about her temperament after this was over.

As Vera walked toward the door, the knocking was getting more and more urgent. The doorbell even rang several times. It was obvious whoever was behind the door was furious.

Normally, Vera wouldn't have let Lauren wait. However, after what Lauren had deliberately done in the morning, Vera didn't feel the least bit guilty even though she had a guilty conscience.

She took a deep breath and braced for battle before she opened the door.

Lauren knocked on the door angrily, and she was growing impatient. If it wasn't that she didn't want to expose her true self, she would have smashed the door open.

Just like when Vera finally opened the door. Lauren really wanted to scold her right in the

face.

But she still needed to use Vera to get to Quill. As before she managed to hook up with him, he still thought highly of her.

Lauren would deal with Vera after she managed to replace her.

After she had consoled herself, Lauren was no longer as angry as before. She stared at Vera coldly, and she couldn't help but reproach her.

"Vera, what were you doing? I knocked for such a long time, but you didn't open the door."

Vera noticed that she wasn't happy. Lauren looked as if she wanted to eat her up. Was this how she should treat the person who had saved her life?

Vera had always understood the principle of never expect a reward when you help someone in need. So, she had never thought of asking Lauren to repay her kindness when she rescued her.

As long as Vera could help others,

she would be happy. Besides, she was not the kind of person who would help with anything. She had only helped Lauren because it happened right in front of her and she couldn't bear to watch anymore.

But at that moment? Lauren was glaring fiercely at her. That upset Vera.
