Thus, she pursed her lips and did not say anything.
"What's wrong?"
Beanie thought that she was unhappy as she was silent for a long time. Hence, he asked her, "Did I say something to upset you?"
"No." Mashauva shook her head like a rattle. She crossed her fingers and whispered, "In fact, I came to see you today, not to eat."
Hearing that, Beanie understood what she meant.
"I know. It's me who wants to treat you to something. It's not you who wants to eat. Is that okay?"
Mashauva still liked good food and at that moment, she was almost drooling. She looked up and her cheeks were flushed. "Then, can I eat ice cream today?"
"Of course you can."
"Thank you, Beanie."
Then, he took Mashauva to eat ice cream. In the evening, Cassie came to pick her up to go home.
The next day, Mashauva went over again. In the following days, Mashauva was almost like a daughter of the Hanover family. She was there every day and was already very close with everyone in the family.
Even Maddox liked her too.
Of course, the reason he liked her was because she always pestered Beanie, who then had to spend his time with her, which saved Maddox a lot of trouble.
Although they had reached an agreement last time, Maddox was still worried that Minerva would overthink things, so he found time to prove his innocence to her.

Minerva knew what he meant. "I didn't say that there's a problem. Why are you in such a hurry to prove your innocence?"
"I am afraid that if I don't prove it now, you will be angry later on."
Remembering her angry expression that night, he was terrified. The two of them had gone through too much hardships in the past. It wasn't easy for them to have a peaceful life like that then.
He hoped that in this life, they would never quarrel again.
Even if there was an argument, he would always compromise and let her win.
"I won't really be angry. Even if I get angry sometimes, it will only be temporary. Beanie is fine now. I asked him that day. He said that the chubby girl is very cute and he would take care of her as if she was his sister."
Since Vera gave birth, Quill had been running back and forth between his home and the company. He often couldn't get enough sleep, and even though Vera pitied him, Quill didn't know how to look after himself. Finally, he exhausted himself.
At the meeting that day, his complexion was very poor. Seeing that his expression was not well, Juliette took the initiative to ask him. "President Hanover, you look pale. Would you like to stop the meeting? Shall I help you back to your office for you to take a break?" Quill shook his head slightly. "There's no need."
Others also noticed that he looked pale, so they all asked with concern.
"President Hanover, are you sure that we don't have to pause the meeting? We can continue at any time. Your health is more important."
"Yes, President Hanover. You look pale. Why don't you go to the hospital first? Leave this to us. When the results come out, we will report it to you."
Everyone looked at Quill with worry. He coughed slightly and covered his mouth with his hands.
"It's all right. Let's continue the meeting."
Seeing that everyone was still staring at him, he then said, "I know my body well. Continue."
After the meeting, Quill returned to the office, closed his eyes and rested on the sofa.
After resting for about an hour, he got up again to continue working.
After working for a while, his felt that he started having double vision. He realized the severity of the matter and felt that he had to get off work early to go to the hospital that day.
Otherwise, he would not be able to do anything if things went on like that.
It didn't matter if he couldn't do his work, but he would get Vera worried about him too.
Thinking of that, he began to pack his things. Juliette couldn't help going in halfway and reminded him. "President Hanover, how do you feel? Do you really not need a break?"
"Well, I'm getting off work early today. Let's talk about it tomorrow if there's anything."
Juliette was very worried. Hearing that he said that he would get off work early, she was finally relieved. She was even preparing to call Vera. After all, if she couldn't persuade him, Vera might be able to do it.
There was no need for that then.
"President Hanover, I suggest that you go to the hospital."
"Okay."
"How about I drive you there?"
"This contract has not been handled yet. You go deal with it, and I will just be careful."
"All right then." She had no choice but to take the contract from him and repeatedly told him again, "You must put your safety first, President Hanover. If you feel unwell, call someone and stop driving."
"Thank you."
After Quill left, Juliette went to deal with the contract.
At that moment, Vera went to the supermarket.
The two children were being looked after by Mabie at home, so she took the opportunity to go to the supermarket to buy some necessities for the children such as diapers, milk powder, bottles, and so on.
She was picking something from the
shelves when a cart suddenly knocked down the candy jars that
were stacked up not far away in
front of her. When they fell, they made a loud crashing sound which startled her.
Vera was so shocked that her heart started pounding furiously, and even her eyelids twitched madly. She subconsciously reached out and touched her eyelids.
Then, her heart began to beat violently.
What was going on? Why was she so scared?
She took a deep breath, then raised her head and put the things on the shelves into the shopping cart. However, she then felt a throbbing pain in her heart.
She couldn't bear the pain and squatted down.
Suddenly, she thought of Quill, and her heart was a little flustered.
At the same time, her cell phone rang. Her heart ached badly. It took a long time for her to come back to her senses. She took out her cell phone, and when she saw that the name on the screen was Quill, the shock in her heart did not disappear, but instead grew stronger.
She answered the phone, but it was an unfamiliar female voice that came from the other end of the phone.
"Hello, are you the wife of the owner of this phone number?"
An ominous premonition rose in Vera's heart, and it took her to regain her voice.
"Yes, I am. May I ask who you are?"
"Madam, your husband's car hit the guardrail and he passed out. Just now, he was being taken away by the ambulance, and then his cell phone fell
on the ground. So, I picked it up and called you."
Did his car hit the guardrail?
Vera's face turned pale in an instant. "Excuse me, is what you just said... Is it true?"
"Madam, I'm not joking. Your husband's car is still parked here."
"Which hospital?"
Her voice suddenly raised, which shocked the other party. After suppressing her panic, she continued, "Sorry, I am a little emotional right now. Which hospital was he sent to?"
"Judging from the logo on the ambulance, it should be the nearest one. It's the one at East School Road."
"Thank you, I know. I'll be there right away."
After putting away her cell phone, she rushed out and bumped into someone.
