Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 1226

Vera was taken aback.

Push her into the sea? She didn't dare to do so.

If Lauren didn't know how to swim, she would have to jump into the water to save her. More importantly... Vera didn't know how to swim.

But if she didn't save Lauren and let her die, she would be accused of murder.

Vera intended to help her, not harm her. It was not a crime she could shoulder.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Even if Lauren had other intentions, Vera didn't want to take revenge. At most, she would not contact Lauren until her problem from earlier was over.

"The woman looked rather mature, and her eyes were full of anger when she left. You and your husband should be careful."

"Yeah, keep an eye on your husband. They always fall for these types of women, so you have to keep an eye open."

The crowd surrounded Vera. She was so awkward that she could only smile. "Thank you, I know."

Everyone gradually left. Vera was embarrassed to go back to Quill.

Because... she had lied just now.

She and Quill were truly not married. They hadn't even been in love for a long time, not to mention getting married. She pretended to be Mrs. Hanover and lied and even put on an act when she fought Lauren.

Would Quill... think that she was a scheming woman?

Vera was very regretful at that moment. She shouldn't have done that.

Just as Vera was feeling uncertain, she felt someone gazing at her.

"Why aren't you coming over? How long are you going to stand there? If the boat sets sail, you will lose your balance."

She blushed and lowered her head like a loser when she heard Quill's voice. She walked slowly toward him.

Quill had left the inner seat for her.

However, Vera didn't dare walk in, so she sat outside. Before her body touched the seat, Quill pulled her onto his lap.

Vera almost cried out loud, but she quickly controlled herself. Her eyes widened in fright as she looked at him. "You... Let go of me quickly."

After all, they were in public. It wasn't good for her to sit on his lap.

But Quill didn't seem to mind. "Didn't you ask me to save you a seat?"

"Umm..." Vera shook her head and bit her lower lip. "I suddenly don't feel like sitting there."

As she spoke, she struggled to get off his lap. However, he wrapped his hands tightly around her waist and moved his face closer to her. "What are you so nervous about, Mrs. Hanover?"

Vera felt his hot breath as he spoke, and it enveloped her breath as well. She felt as if she had been struck by lightning when she heard Quill calling her Mrs. Hanover.

After a while, she looked at Quill pitifully and said in a barely audible voice, "I didn't mean to..."

If Lauren had not exposed them and claimed that they were not married, she would not have put on an act.

Now that Quill had brought it up, he surely minded it, hadn't he?

Did he think that she was a scheming woman? Would he still like her?

With that thought, anxiousness filled her eyes.

Quill reached out and tapped her nose. "Of course, I know you didn't mean it."

Vera's breath caught in her throat. "What?"

"You did it on purpose." Quill teased.

Vera was flabbergasted. "No, I really didn't..."

"Why are you so nervous?" Quill said as he fixed her hair and clothes. His voice was as light as ever. "You can say whatever you want. I won't blame you."

Vera was caught off guard by his words and looked at him blankly.

"You really won't blame me?"

Quill smiled as he looked at her.

"Then... you don't think I'm scheming? Lauren was... asked to get off the boat because of me." Vera said.

Although everyone had agreed, it was also because of what Vera had said. If she hadn't stood up and said something, they might not hate Lauren so much.

Unexpectedly, Quill reached out and rubbed her head as he spoke dotingly.

"Isn't it good? It proves that my girl has grown up, and you know how to deal with such kind of people."

Vera was rendered speechless.

God! That was how he thought?!

el

It was beyond Vera's expectations She thought that Quill would have felt that she was a scheming person. After all, it seemed that men did not like that kind of woman.

Instead, Quill patted her head dotingly and said that she had grown up.

How... How alluring!

Vera couldn't stop herself from grabbing Quill's collar. She looked at him with amazement.

"Do you really think so?"

"You don't believe me?" Quill asked.

Vera's face turned red, and she bit her lower lip as she inched closer to him. "I'm a little touched, a little..."

Although they were in public, Vera suddenly had the urge to kiss him!

She wanted to kiss him hard!

But... There were too many people around. Vera was so shy that she didn't dare to do it.

"A little what?" Quill didn't know what she was thinking. He thought that she was too embarrassed to express her feelings, so he asked softly. Vera thought for a moment, blinked, and suddenly leaned over to kiss him hard on the cheek!

She kissed his cheek instead of his lips. It didn't affect the public image, did it?

Quill froze for a moment and looked at her in surprise.

Her kiss had caught him off guard.

As she was already embarrassed when he put her on his lap, she even tried to push him away! Who knew that she would suddenly kiss him so boldly?

While Quill was regaining his senses,

Vera had already got up and sat

down in her seat. She lowered

Quill was particularly moved, seeing that she tried to pretend nothing had happened but carelessly revealing her fidgets as she couldn't control her

He really wanted to pull her over and pinch her chin, and tell her what a kiss was.

But he gave up on the idea because there were so many people.

On the other hand, Vera's heart was pounding. Although she looked very calm on the surface, it took her a

But... It felt so good to sneak a kiss.
