Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

"I'm wearing heels. It doesn't matter." Minerva ambled towards the mannequin calmly. After pondering for a while, she said to Vera, "Don't cin. Geta pair of gloves first." Vera originally wanted to go in, but she went to take the gloves for Minerva after listening to her words.

There were only Kelly and Minerva left at the scene.

Kelly finally calmed herself down. She wiped away the tears on her face and looked at Minerva, "You're going to pick up the outfit? But... the outfit has been torn apart. It doesn't serve the purpose anymore even if you do so." Minerva threw her a glance.

"Who said that it doesn't serve the purpose anymore?" Kelly was stunned by her words. "What do you mean?" "Don't lose hope," Minerva's expression was calm as she scrutinized the surroundings. She then said in a low voice, "Tellhow you discovered this scene." "I..." Kelly puckered her lips and felt awkward for a while. "I was overjoyed yesterday, thus I invited everyone for a drink, and then... this is my first work displayed in the exhibition hall. I felt happy even though no one took notice of it. So... I returned and took a look at the dress. It was all good yesterday night. However, it turned out to be in such a manner when I cto have a look this morning. I think Vera is right. Someone might have broken into the building to commit burglary." "Burglary?" Minerva laughed in a subdued voice. "Do you think... the burglar will cause such a scene?" Kelly paused for a while, "What do you mean?" "A thief will normally enter the place to steal something. But what's the hassle of turning this place into a mess?" Kelly blinked. "Perhaps the burglar was angry because there was nothing to steal in this company?" "If you are a thief and you are here to steal, will you smash all the glass and the rest of the things furiously to attract the nearby residents in the middle of the night?" "No, how could I be so foolish? It would cause great noise and attract attention easily." As Kelly spoke, she suddenly paused and thought of something.

"Could it be... no one broke in to steal something? It's just..." Her eyes widened as she stared at Minerva.

Minerva didn't answer her questions. At this moment, Vera handed over the gloves to her. After she put them on, she bent down and gently patted the pieces of glass away from the outfit, and then took the gown from the pile of debris.

When she cout with the outfit, Vera and Kelly wanted to take it over, yet Minerva frowned. "Don't touch it. There may still be shards of glass in it.

Don't get your hand hurt." Therefore, Vera and Kelly waited at the side.

After searching for an empty spot, Minerva put down the gown and took off her gloves.

"Minerva, your leg is bleeding," Vera noticed that there were a few bloodstains on the side of her fair ankle. Minerva didn't bother with it as she didn't feel any pain. "It doesn't matter. There might be many hidden glasses in the outfit. We need to find it." Kelly squatted down beside her with a crestfallen look.

"But what can we do after we find it? This dress has been damaged, and... the press conference Helen is going to attend will be in a few days' time. We don't have tto produce a new one, do we?" Vera squatted down beside her as well. As she looked at the damaged gown in front of her, she frowned. "Minerva, what should we do? This dress is severely damaged. We are short of time. Is there a way to fix it?" Minerva looked at the torn gown before her and felt a little depressed. She remained silent for a while before she spoke, "Get the glass shards out first. We'll discuss it later." As the dress was already in a damaged state, Vera and Kelly were panic-stricken. On the other hand, Minerva was unusually calm. Vera was not surprised by Minerva's reaction because she had been following Minerva for a long time. However, Kelly was different. After all, she just got to know Minerva lately. When she saw Minerva's nonchalant look, she was furious, huffing, "Let's discuss it later? What should we discuss? The dress has been damaged in such a manner. Aren't you worried about it at all? This is our company's design for Helen's press conference event. Do you have any countermeasures?" "No, I don't," Minerva told her the truth.

Things had just happened and her mind was in a mess. How could she immediately think of a countermeasure? However, Minerva still had to deal with the emergency before her first before coming up with the countermeasure. "You are not in a panic at all," Kelly sniffed.

"What's the point of panicking? Does it solve the problem? Can you take the shards out of it? Don't talk nonsense. Hurry up." Vera whispered to Kelly, "Just do whatever Minerva says. She will not put you in trouble. Although this is your design, don't forget that Minerva is in charge of the entire company. She will be responsible for this matter." After listening to Vera's words, Kelly cback to her senses. She nodded and carefully picked out the pieces of glass in the dress.

When they were done with it, Minerva instructed callously, "When you go back, act as if nothing happened." "What?" Kelly widened her eyes in disbelief. However, when she saw Minerva's calm expression, she felt that she should believe in her. She only nodded and wiped away the tear stains at the corner of her eyes. "Noted. By the way, I was not crying just now. I was too anxious about my damaged outfit." Minerva replied, "Got it. Let's go back." Minerva brought the dress to her office alone. Then, she sat on the chair, staring at the dress in a daze.

The culprit had damaged the dress on purpose. The dress was s was made of able silk and would not be able to withstand sharp objects. Hence, it was in a severe condition. Minerva suffered from a headache. She reached out and pinched her temples.

All of a sudden, the sound of a notification rang out from her phone.

Minerva glanced at it. It was a message from Helen.

"Minerva, I heard that my outfit is ready?"

Minerva was a little flustered when she saw Helen's name. Helen did not cto test it out before, but she cto ask about the outfit after it ET! was damaged. It was indeed heart-wrenching. Minerva contemplated for a moment before she replied. "Yes, the dress is ready. It was placed in the exhibition hall on the sixth floor." After thinking for a while, her gaze darkened as she typed another message.

"However, there was an accident." Helen immediately replied, "What accident? Don't frighten me!"

Minerva was hesitant when she saw a fearful face emoji at the end of Helen's message. SkeWas om wondering if she should tell her directly, or just take a photo and send it to her? X
