After that, Minerva rushed to the school and accompanied Beanie. They went out for lunch shortly after that. By the tthey finished lunch, it was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon. Beanie had a habit of taking an afternoon nap. He began to fall asleep on Minerva's chest and hugged her neck with one hand, saying drowsily, "Mommy, are we going hfor a nap now?" Upon hearing his words, Minerva felt a little sleepy as well and couldn't help but yawn.
"Okay, let's go hand take a nap." Thus, they got into the car and returned home.
"What do you think of the school? Do you like it?" Minerva asked softly during the journey.
Beanie nodded. "I like it." "Then are you willing to study in this school?" Beanie didn't feel the need to attend school at all. In spite of that, Minerva wanted him to mingle with other kids, so he just agreed to go to a school nearby her office. "I'm willing to." As soon as Minerva heard him, she couldn't help revealing a delighted smile. "That's great! As long as you're willing. It looks like the school I've found for you is pretty good." Vera, who was at the side, looked at Beanie's obedient look. She immediately felt a sense of relief in her heart.
Beanie was very obedient in front of Minerva. He had never demanded anything unreasonably and constantly fulfilled all her requests ever since he was a child. He didn't seem like a five-year-old child. As such, he was more mature and shrewd than an ordinary five-year-old.

Minerva thought the smost of the time. However, she raised him all by herself.
Vera felt sorry, yet at the stthankful for the both of them.
Fortunately, Minerva had Quill as her elder brother. Even though Beanie didn't have fatherly love, he was loved by the people around him.
All of them were deeply absorbed in their own thoughts when they were in the car.
After they arrived, Beanie had fallen asleep in Minerva's arms. He began snoring, his hands hugging her neck. Minerva's heart melted at the sight of Beanie. She opened the car door and tried to hold him up. However, Quill stood at the door and whispered, "Give him to me." After all, Beanie was a boy. It would be easier for Quill to carry him.
Minerva spoke in an undertone, "He's asleep. Be gentle and don't wake him up." "Don't worry." Quill took him from her hands and carried him away. Search ThE (Find)website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
After Quill left, Vera cup sneakily. "How was it today?" When she heard Vera, Minerva paused for a second. "What do you mean?" "Didn't you take my phone to look for Maddox? He didn't do anything to you, did he?" After saying that, Vera walked up to her and studied her face, then stared at Minerva's lips as if she had found out something. Minerva frowned and asked, "What are you doing?" "I want to see whether or not you're being taken advantage of," Vera replied as she inched closer to Minerva, holding her face. Minerva saw that Vera's lips were about to touch hers and quickly retreated. She pushed Vera away. "Alright, stop fooling around." Vera was in a daze after she was pushed away. "What's wrong? I just want to take a look. After all, he called you over early in the morning during the weekend. Minerva, I think he's coming for you. You see, there are so many designers in our company, but he insisted on choosing you. And... When we went to the office, he really turned us away without hesitation. I think..." "What do you think?" Minerva looked up at her.
Vera pursed her lips and said solemnly, "Why don't... we void the contract? I'm afraid that he will take advantage of you completely sooner or later." Minerva sucked in a breath. This girl... Did she say that on purpose? Minerva glared at her. "Cagain?" Vera smiled awkwardly. "What I said is true. Am I wrong?" "Yes, but for the penalty fees, have you seen the contract?" Vera went deathly pale at the thought of penalty fees in the event of a breach of contract. "Can Quill pay for it?" "What are you thinking? He has already spent a lot of money on the company. Besides, we are employers now. If we void the contract just because we are not on good terms with him, how about the rest of the staff? We cannot act willfully like in the past. We are representing the company now. Since I have already accepted his order, I will not do such a self-destructive thing." Vera nodded in agreement.
"I know about that. Still... I don't want you to suffer." "Don't worry. How much will I suffer?" Although she was somewhat taken advantage of by Maddox, he didn't get any benefit from her.
It was not considered a loss.
Anyway, she would be fine after the collaboration with him.

Beanie officially went to school. As the school was close to Minerva's office, she would pick him up w up when she got off from work every evening. Beanie was pleased that she could spend more twith her every day. When Beanie mentioned going to her company, Minerva turned him down.
"You should get used to the environment at school first. Once you get familiar with it, I'll take you to the company, alright? Minerva had no idea when Maddox would cto the company lately. She honestly did not want Maddox to see Beanie. Even though she thought that this child was Benedict's in the beginning.
However... Beanie resembled Maddox as he grew. Minerva was extremely terrified. She had always kept this secret in her heart. Since Maddox was her ex-husband, others would assthat Beanie was their child.
But... only Minerva knew that the biological father of Beanie was the man she encountered during that rainy night.
Later on, after Sylvia investigated the matter, she told her that the person was Benedict.
If it was Benedict, why did Beanie look so similar to Maddox? A terrifying thought cinto her mind. She suppressed it at once.
She was crazy to think like this! "No, It's impossible!" Minerva calmed herself down after suppressing the thought.
