Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 363

Hearing that, Minerva and Vera looked at each other.

When Vera was about to nod her head, Minerva smiled and stopped her. She then explained softly, "I'm really sorry, I may not be available for new jobs in the near future." "Can you leave your name card? This is so that I can contact you when you are free in the future."

It was not appropriate for Minerva to further refuse since he had such a good sense of propriety. As such, she glanced at Vera.

Vera immediately took out her name card and handed it over. "Hello, Kevin. I am Shelly's assistant. My name is Vera."

"Alright, I'll take the name card then. Are you leaving?"

"Yes."

After bidding farewell to him, Minerva and Vera left the set. They did not expect the cab to still be there when they came out. The cab driver even greeted them when he saw them.

Minerva was stunned for a moment before walking over with Vera.

"Uncle, haven't you left yet?"

"Well, I wanted to wait here to see if there are any actors who want to leave, so that I could give them a ride. I didn't expect you to come out so soon." Minerva thought for a moment and said, "We have to go back. Uncle, if it's convenient for you, why don't you give us another ride?"

"No problem."

Thus, they got into the car. As soon as Vera got into the car, she quickly wrapped her arms around herself and said, "Alas, we lost another job order today. I feel like my year-end bonus won't be much. That woman is too arrogant. In the past, the stars we saw on screen were gentle and polite. Therefore,

I didn't expect that in private, she would be such a person. Isn't she afraid that we will expose her true colors?"

Minerva glanced at Vera and said, "Then why don't you try and expose her? Let's see if the netizens believe you or their idol. It'll be good enough if you don't drown in the saliva of the netizens."

Hearing this, Vera immediately said indignantly, "Hey, this society is sick! However, what the deputy director just said is true. Why don't you be an actress? With your beauty, you can definitely be successful in the entertainment circle. If that happens, you can step on her and see if she dares to be arrogant or not."

Minerva said, "It's a pity that I'm old and can't stand the ups and downs of the industry. I'll leave this kind of feat to you."

Vera replied, "You think I don't want to? It's a pity that I don't have your appearance."

After that, she couldn't help but hug herself again and complain, "Comparisons are odious. I can still accept it if I do not have your intelligence, but I don't have your beauty either. If I had one of them, I wouldn't have to be your assistant now."

"Are you feeling wronged that you are my assistant?" Minerva glanced at her.

Vera only felt a chill running down her back, and she responded with a bitter smile, "Nope, I'm good."

"But I don't think the deputy director will give up. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked me for the business card. If you can't be a designer in the future, it's not bad if you become an actress."

Minerva answered, "That's not possible."

"Why is that so?"

"Look at those actors. They are all very young. I am at least a decade older than them. Isn't it ridiculous for me to enter the entertainment industry at this age?"

Vera said, "You're right. You are an old woman in your 30s. It's just that... your face has deceived them! I know that there are many people in the entertainment industry who have secretly lied about their age. You can lie to them that you are actually still very young."

"Don't think too much. If you want to be an actor, you can try recommending yourself to that deputy director."

Vera immediately grabbed her arm and shook her head hard.

"No! I don't want to enter the entertainment industry, and I will never sacrifice myself because of fame! I will never step foot into the industry!"

Minerva pushed her gently when she said that. "If you don't want to step foot in that industry, why are you trying to persuade me to?"

"That's different. You're good-looking. Besides, someone wants to pull you in. If you go, I can be your agent."

Minerva was speechless.

If she continued to talk to her, she might get upset in the end. Hence, she did not continue the conversation, and the car soon arrived at Mapleline Garden.

Originally, Minerva planned to go back to North City to visit the Hanover family a few days later. She had taken into consideration that Yvonne would be filming in North City then, but she did not expect the deal to fall apart so quickly. Now, she had no intention of going to North City at all.

Therefore, she decided to discuss with Quill about the delay of her return to the Hanover family.

However, when Cuill heard what she said, he sneered coldly and immediately gave her a strict order.

He asked her to take Beanie back by car the next day.

Minerva replied, "No, tomorrow is too soon. Besides, I haven't bought a ticket yet."

Cuill said, "I'll drive there tonight to pick you up."

Minerva replied, "Don't!"

"Anyway, it only takes a few hours to go back and forth. I can still hold up." Although Quill spoke in that manner, his voice was full of fatigue.

Minerva could not help but feel sorry for him. After all, he was her brother who treated her very well. Hence, she could only give in.

All right, I'll call Beanie to get up early tomorrow morning. Then we'll take a ride there, okay?"

Quill was silent for a moment, and then replied with satisfaction, "I'll ask the driver to pick you up."

Minerva said, "Didn't you ask me to go there myself?"

"There'll be traffic jams. Come over in the early hours of the morning. I'll get the driver to set off later. You guys can have a rest after dinner and then you can start preparing yourselves." Minerva continued, "Quill! You're crossing the line!"

They had agreed on the next day, but it turned out to be one night ahead of schedule. She didn't even get a good sleep.

After being yelled at by her, Quill didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled and said in a low voice, "Be good. Come back and sleep."

After hanging up the phone, Minerva helplessly grabbed at her long hair.

Quill was good at everything, but he... loved his sister too much.

She didn't know if it was because he had been looking for her over the past twenty years. Later, he even found the wrong person, and when he found her, he felt guilty, so he treated her so well. Or was he someone who had always loved his sister? However, according to Juliette, he did not treat Sylvia in such a manner and even neglected her.

Perhaps that was the power of familial love.

That evening, Vera personally made the fish and chips, and Beanie finally got to eat it. He was satisfied and touched his little belly, and then fell into his mother's arms. "Mummy, Auntie Vera's cooking is really delicious."

Upon hearing this, Minerva glanced at Veran who was in front of her and said, teasing, "Then do you want to marry Auntie Vera?"

Hearing this, Vera almost choked on her food.

Beanie shook his head seriously. "No."

"Why not?"

"I am only five years old, and it will take at least 20 years for me to be able to marry someone. At that time, Auntie Vera will be Grandma Vera already. She won't look good then."
