Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

"Understand? Get lost." Quill coldly ordered her to leave.

What else could Lauren do? She had already gone this far, but the man in front of her did not waver at all. Was she supposed to lie on the ground? However, he probably wouldn't even look at her if she did so.

It was only now that Lauren realized women needn't lower themselves in front of a man. If that man truly loved her, he would always dote on her even if she acted arrogantly. Unfortunately... It was already too late.

She probably wouldn't have the chance for the rest of her life.

Lauren left despondently.

Quill shut the door and went back in. He was furious after his conversation with Lauren. He wanted to take another cold shower, but he was worried about Vera as she still hadn't returned.

After sthought, Quill simply changed his clothes and prepared to head out.

Just as he reached the entrance, he heard a knock on the door.

He opened it.

Sure enough, it was Vera. She had a bag in her hand, and she didn't look good.

"Looks like I'm late. How are you doing? Have you had swater? Do you still feel unwell?" Quill looked at her face, then at the bag in her hand. "What's this?" Speaking of this, Vera's expression suddenly beca little dejected. "The front desk didn't have any medicine, and there was no doctor on the island. I went to look for Dimitri. Fortunately, he had smedicine on him. But I was worried it wasn't enough, so I asked the hotel staff for a bag of ice. They might cin handy." Ice? Quill becupset as soon as he realized Vera was carrying a large bag of ice in her arms. He took it from her and placed it on the shelf on the side. Then, he held her hand.

As expected, her hand was as cold as ice.

The temperature difference between the human body and ice was drastic. She hugged the bag of ice in her arms directly; no wonder she didn't look good.

Thinking of this, Quill couldn't help but tap Vera's nose. "Are you stupid? Even if you wanted to bring sice back, couldn't you have carried it with your hand? Why did you carry it in your arms? Do you think you are a fridge?" Speaking of this, Vera scratched her head awkwardly and mumbled: "I... It was heavy for me. So... That's why I carried it in my arms. Besides, it's just a short distance. I'm fine, aren't I?" "You are fine now. But if it took a little longer, your body may not be able to bear it, and you will faint. Who will help you by then? Dummy, don't do this next time." "Oh." Vera nodded obediently.

Quill sighed softly. He held her cold little hand, giving her sof his body heat.

Vera felt extremely cold after carrying the bag of ice. Now that she was feeling the warmth coming from his hands, she felt snug. She greedily wanted more of it.

However, she suddenly thought of something and pushed Quill's hand away immediately.

"You can't do this. You are still feverish. You'd better not touchfirst! This is the fever medicine Dimitri gave me. I'll prepare the ice for you!" After that, Vera turned around in a hurry.

Quill suddenly remembered what Lauren said earlier.

Even an outsider like Lauren believed the reason he didn't want to tell Vera was that he wasn't interested in her. Would Vera think the sif he didn't tell her he was drugged instead of having a fever? Quill didn't care what outsiders thought.

But Vera's...

Thinking of this, Quill intended to make it clear to Vera. But when he was about to say it, Vera suddenly said, "Don, this kettle is broken t How can the hotel staff be so careless? I'll go ask for another one. Wait for me; I'll be back in five minutes!" After that, Vera rushed out of the door again.

Quill was speechless.

He didn't have a chance to speak at all.

Just as Vera was about to head down with the kettle in her hand, she bumped into Lauren.

Because she had an urgent matter in hand, she didn't intend to talk to Lauren. She just glanced at her coldly and walked past her.

However, Lauren blocked her way.

Vera looked at her impatiently.

"Go away. I have an urgent matter. I don't have tto chat with you." Lauren curled her lips and said, "Don't you want to know what happened to Quill?" Hearing this, Vera was taken aback for a moment. She subconsciously squinted and asked, "What do you mean by that?" "He had just wandered around the beach. Why does he feel feverish when he comes back? Do you think..... it's just an ordinary fever?" Vera didn't speak.

Lauren took a step forward and said with a charming smile, "Lettell you then. He was drugged." Vera's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at her warily.

"Surprising, isn't it? But... aren't you husband and wife? He could've relied on you to solve the problem, but he didn't tell you at all. Aren't you tired running up and down?" Vera still didn't speak.

Vera was doubtful earlier, but now

that Lauren had said it so clearly, she would have understood everything even if she was a fool. No wonder he was behaving strangely downstairs, and his hand was unusually hot when he held her hand.

But Vera didn't think much about it at that time. He didn't look any different from usual, so she thought he was just having a fever. Who would've thought...

For a moment, Vera was at a loss of what to do. She did not know how to speak of this matter.

"You are quite disappointed, aren't you? You kept calling him your husband, but he doesn't even want to touch you. Say, Vera, don't you think you're flattering yourself?" Lauren had done it on purpose.

Since Quill had rejected her, she could only target Vera. After all, her schhad failed, so she decided to spy.discord between Vera and Quill and create a misunderstanding between them. Thinking of this, Lauren couldn't help but want to praise her cleverness.

Just as she was about to say a few more sarcastic words, Vera suddenly smiled faintly and answered her.

"So?" Vera asked.

Lauren was taken aback.

"What does it have to do with you whether I'm flattering myself or if I'm tired?" Lauren was at a loss for words.

"Madam Lowell, it seems that you really didn't take what I said earlier to heart. I'll grant your wish then.I Will call the police when I go back. I wish you and your husband a successful meeting." Lauren was irritated by her words. "You!" "Also, you don't have to cand drive a wedge between us. Judging by the way you're dressing, you must have tried your luck with Quill, haven't you? It's a pity that you've failed." Vera stared at the clothes on her with a faint smile.

Lauren glanced at her clothes. As she wanted to provoke Vera, she didn't have tto change.
