Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

When the press conference began, the lights in the auditorium began to dim.

In fact, the purpose of the press conference was to promote new products. A tycoon from the Dazzling Ruby had invited Yvonne, the famous celebrity, as well as Helen, the movie star.

Businessmen were smart people. They would not do anything without a reason. They knew that Yvonne and Helen would inevitably be compared by the audience to each other as they were of the sage. The two of them might even get into an argument because of that.

Therefore, they didn't need to fork out money to publicize the press conference. Word of the event spread fast with the aid of fans and passersby, hyping the event up effortlessly. "What did you do?" In the darkness, a person sat down beside Minerva.

Minerva looked at Vera who was next to her, and asked softly.

In the darkness, Vera whispered back in Minerva's ear, saying, "I bought the gown." Upon hearing her words, Minerva was taken aback. "What?" Vera was afraid that Minerva would misunderstand her, so she explained at once, "But I didn't spend your money. I just... told Quill that you like that dress, so..." Seeing Vera smile so cheekily, Minerva was slightly speechless. "How could you involve him!" As soon as she said that, Vera seemed to tremble a little as the air had inexplicably turned cold.

"There is no other way. We have to save up to buy a house. We can't spend your money, can we? We can't take revenge on Yvonne if we don't buy it. I really can't pay for the dress at one go, so I had to..." With that, Vera stretched out her hand and tugged at Minerva's sleeve. She said pitifully, "Minerva, there's really nothing I can do about it. Furthermore, I didn't mention anything. I merely said that the dress matches your temperament very well, so..." Minerva asked, "So you're wasting his money for no reason?" "No! She damaged our company's outfit so we bought hers instead. As long as she makes a fool out of herself at the press conference, our rage can be soothed!" "You're spending so much money just to vent your anger?" Minerva raised her eyebrows. Even though she slightly disapproved of Vera's actions, it was hard to tell from her tone.

Vera understood Minerva very well. Minerva was a person who would not blher. Nevertheless, Vera would not take it for granted. Hence, she quickly hugged Minerva's arm. "Hey, don't be angry. I swear that this will be the only tI do it. Well be pleased after we vent our anger. Furthermore, the lawyer has paid us millions of dollars in compensation. No matter how you think about it, we're not at a loss!" "Are you being smart with me?" Minerva couldn't resist reaching out to poke Vera's forehead.

Vera giggled after Minerva forgave her.

They noticed that the lights were slowly getting brighter. The Dazzling Ruby were hosting the press conference, and they had invited two well-known stars to make a guest appearance at the event. It was not a small event.

All of a sudden, someone approached Minerva and said quietly, "Miss Hanover, Helen wants you to cover." "Hmm?" Helen wanted her to cover? "What's wrong?" Although Minerva was a little puzzled, she could tell that it was Jackson, Helen's agent.

"What's the matter?" Jackson smiled, saying, "It's not a big deal. You will know when you get there." Only then did Minerva nod her head. She stood up and prepared to leave.

The surroundings were dark. When she got up, she could only move to her left as it was the closest way to the middle path. However, when she got up, she realized that the man next to her had occupied all the space in front of him. Minerva couldn't move a single inch.

The light fixtures were all directed at the stage. Therefore, the path was barely visible in the dark auditorium.

Minerva finally looked at the person beside her. Under the dim light, she could clearly see a sturdy figure. It seemed to be a man.

"Sir, I'm really sorry. Will you excuse me, please?" Minerva found the man quite familiar.

The image of a man flashed through her mind, yet she suppressed her thoughts right away.

It's impossible, she thought to herself.

It was the Dazzling Ruby's press conference. How could that person get involved? Perhaps she was thinking too much.

With that thought in mind, she swiftly cleared her mind and cback to her senses.

The man remained motionless. Minerva was a little confused. "Sir? Excuse me?" At that moment, the man finally allowed her to pass by moving his long legs. It was only then that Minerva could walk out, heaving a sigh of relief.

She had almost thought that the man was purposely obstructing her. Perhaps she had thought too much. The man probably didn't respond to her because he didn't hear her.

After taking a few steps, Minerva couldn't help turning around to take a look at him.

"Miss Shelly, over here." Jackson's voice cfrom the front. Minerva cto her senses and nodded as she went on walking.

"Be careful of the steps."

After walking out of the auditorium, Minerva followed Jackson. After walking a long distance, they finally left the auditorium and entered a corridor. The light gave the corridor a warm glow. After she cout from the auditorium, she could see everything clearly at last.

In fact, she disliked being in the dark auditorium earlier on.

Although there were slights, no one could see things clearly.

"Miss Hanover, there are about twenty minutes before Helen goes onstage. She invited you over for dinner." Upon hearing his words, Minerva paused and asked, "For dinner?" "That's right. That girl is famished." Minerva followed Jackson to Helen's dressing room and saw Helen's state.

She had put on her makeup and was dressed as she waited to go onstage.

At such a moment, she should be sitting still while waiting for her turn. She should be inspecting her outfit to see if everything was alright. To Minerva's surprise, she was actually sitting in front of a table. With her dress lifted, she nibbled on a skewer in her hand. When she heard the sound, she raised her head.

"Minerva, you're finally here! I've been waiting for you for a long time. This is the dinner that I've ordered. Cand join me." Helen put down the skewer. She stood up and was about to pick up the hem of her dress as she walked toward Minerva.

As soon as Minerva noticed that Helen was about to touch the outfit with her oily hands, Minerva suddenly narrowed her eyes and shouted, "Don't move!"
