Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Minerva closed her eyes.

She held Beanie tightly and thought in her heart...

"Maddox, look. Our child is so good, so obedient and so understanding. Are you willing to leave us behind?" "Cback, we've been waiting for you." Tflew by. It was a month later.

The company ran as usual. In the beginning, because of Maddox's accident, many people thought that Yardley Corporation was an easy target. So they wanted to cancel their previous deals. A lot of them ever wanted to break their contracts.

However, all these problems were suppressed by Minerva.

Of course, her brother, Quill had always been helping her. Juliette also helped her to take care of a lot of work. Sam helped her while recuperating and finally, everything returned to normal.

For the design company, it was completely handed over to Vera to manage. Minerva couldn't take care of both sides at the stime.

When Vera was free, she would occasionally cover to help Minerva. At present, Vera went to Minerva's office and sorted out the documents for her. She said, "Should we go to the cafeteria for lunch at noon?" "Yes," Minerva nodded.

The Yardley Corporation's cafeteria was not like other regular canteens. The safety measures and hygiene maintenance there were done very well. Ever since Minerva came, she had been eating in the cafeteria.

Vera nodded and said, "Actually, the food in your cafeteria is delicious. It's almost tfor lunch. Let's go since it's relatively quiet now. You can cup first after lunch." Minerva glanced at the time, and supposed that it's alright for her to cup early after lunch. She packed up her things and went downstairs with Vera.

Both of them went to the cafeteria and found out that there were a lot of people lining up for food. Minerva never used her privileges, so she went to line up with Vera with the other employees. As soon as they lined up, they heard two female employees whispering in front of them.

"Well, Mila, is that woman going to be in charge of Yardley Corporation from now on? Why hasn't Young Master Yardley cback for such a long time?" one of the employees asked. Upon hearing this, Minerva was stunned for a moment and then she frowned. Vera, who was behind Minerva, almost made a move, but Minerva stopped her.

"Ellis, what are you talking about? It's been more than a month. If Young Master Yardley was coming back, he would have already returned long ago!" the girl named Mila replied. "Huh?" Ellis replied in confusion.

"Ellis, is there something wrong with your mind? Do you think that the plane accident was a small accident? There were only a few survivors. Not everyone is that lucky." "But, Mila, the officials still have not found Young Master Yardley's body, have they?" "Yes, although they haven't found the body, he also wasn't among the survivors. Do you think it's easy to find a person in the vast sea? I heard sinside scoop that in fact, apart from the survivors and the bodies recovered, many people are missing and Young Master Yardley is one of them..." Mila explained.

When Ellis heard this, she covered her mouth in surprise.

"It can't be. So many people had gone missing. It seems that they're really fraught with grim possibilities!" Mila then continued, "In the future, this Hanover lady would probably be in charge of Yardley Corporation. Even though she is young, she is scheming. I heard that Young Master Yardley's brother wanted to take over as president temporarily but she disagreed. She said that she was Young Master Yardley's wife, so she had the right to take over his position. In my opinion, this woman cfor Young Master Yardley's property from the very beginning. After his death, she didn't cry or make a fuss and was actually eager to compete for the position in the company." "No way! She doesn't seem like that kind of person..." "Huh! You're so naive. I've seen so many women like her!" Mila said viciously.

When Vera, who was standing behind Minerva, heard this, she couldn't hold it in any longer. If Minerva hadn't stopped Vera earlier, Vera would have already rushed forward in anger. Vera scolded loudly, "What kind of women are you referring to?!" The sudden question interrupted the discussion between Mila and Ellis. Mila turned around to face Minerva. Minerva looked delicate and beautiful, but her face was completely indifferent. Next to Minerva, Vera was glaring at Mila fiercely.

Mila's expression changed. She realized that they had heard her gossip. She was unsure if she would be targeted at the company in the future, so she said frankly, "Am I wrong? Young Master Yardley would never cback. However, this lady pretends to take the position of vice president, taking care of everything. She even brought outsiders like you into the company. I know that Hanover Corporation has always been under the pressure of Yardley Corporation. So, your plan is to work with outsiders to push Yardley Corporation under the power of Hanover Corporation!" Vera stared at Mila incredulously.

"How can you talk nonsense like that?" She was so angry, wanting to argue with this ridiculous Mila.

Minerva stopped Vera and looked at Mila with a slight smile. "Excuse me, who told you that Maddox wouldn't cback?" Mila was stunned. She did not expect that Minerva was actually concerned about the matter about Young Master Yardley.

Minerva continued, "You're right. He's not among the survivors, but they haven't found the body yet. But since he is missing, you cannot make any conclusions yet. Yet you insist that he wouldn't cback, so are you just trying to create false rumors?" "I..." Mila stuttered.

Minerva looked away and said faintly, "The Yardley Corporation only needs capable staff, not someone who only knows how to gossip and curse her superiors. Please go back and pack your things. Leave the Yardley Corporation immediately." Mila's eyes widened all of a sudden. "You want to fire me?"

Her voice was so loud that it attracted everyone's attention in an instant. When they looked over, they V.e1 realized that Minerva was there.

Thus, no one dared to cforward.

They could only watch the scene quietly.

Minerva lowered her head and looked at the ton her wristwatch. She said, "Well, it's about ten minutes past eleven now. When it turns to half e past eleven but you're still hanging around in the company, I'll accuse you for trespassing the Yardley Corporation." "You!" Mila was exasperated. She glared at Minerva, "My uncle also holds shares in the company. You can't fire me!" "Oh?" Minerva smiled faintly. "Who's your uncle?" "My uncle is..." Just as Mila was about to say her uncle's name, Ellis quickly pulled her away, and lowered her head to apologize to Minerva.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. Mila said it on the spur of the moment. She really didn't mean to slander you and m Young Master Yardley. We usually work very hard. We talked nonsense because we have nothing to do. Please give us another chance." Minerva glanced at Ellis. She remembered that Ellis had stood up for her just now.

Saying that Minerva was not that kind of woman...

Minerva had a good impression of Ellis just because of that one sentence, as there were too many people who looked down on Minerva in this company.

"Since your friend is pleading on your behalf, I will pretend nothing happened. But if... if I hear anyone talk about Young Master Yardley behind me, I won't be polite anymore!" Minerva could let others gossip about her. But she couldn't let them curse that Maddox would not return! She absolutely did not allow that! X
