Chapter 430


    Kelly brightened as soon as she heard that. "Do you still remember me?"


    Beanie nodded.


    Kelly was overjoyed. She reached into her bag at once and she took out a lollipop this time. She


    then handed it to Beanie.


    Beanie hesitated for a moment and stretched out his hands to take the lollipop. He nodded his head


    to Kelly to express his gratitude.


    "Thank you, Pretty Sister."


    "Such a well- brought up child. You''re being too modest," Kelly murmured.


    Indeed, Beanie was the child of an outstanding individual. He was well-educated. It seemed that...


    she had misunderstood Minerva previously.


    Despite that, who was the father of this child?


    "Why did you return to thepany at this time? Isn''t it almost time to get off from work?"


    When Kelly mentioned this, Vera gave her a sorrowful look. "Don''t mention it. Minerva is still in the


    office. I went to the school nearby to pick Beanie up just now. We''re going upstairs to wait for her."


    Upon hearing her words, Kelly could not resist gaping at her. "She has been drawing the design


    since morning?"


    Honestly speaking, Minerva trod the tough path in order to be the champion. As for Kelly, she


    would not be able to withstand fasting and locking herself up in a room all day long to design like


    what Minerva did.


    "Well, salute! Then I''ll make a move first. Little one, we''ll meet again next time."


    "Goodbye, Sister."


    After Kelly left, Vera could not helpining, "You were so arrogant before. Why did you change


    your attitude?"


    However, Vera regained her senses in no time. Subsequently, she went upstairs with Beanie to wait


    for Minerva.


    When they arrived upstairs, they bumped into Minerva.


    "Beanie." When Minerva saw Beanie, she quickly squatted down and hugged him. "I was scared to


    death. I just remembered that you went to school today."


    "Mommy, someone else would have taken me away before you realized it!" Beanie said in a gravely


    tone.


    Minerva felt extremely guilty. She pinched his cheeks. "It''s my fault. I''m sorry, Beanie. I will


    remember to pick you up next time."


    Beanie extended his arms to hug Minerva in the neck tenderly. "Mommy, you must do it."


    "It''s a deal."


    Minerva stretched out her hand and made a pinky promise with Beanie. Vera couldn''t help rolling


    her eyes at the sight of it.


    "Beanie, I think it''s better for you to make a pinky promise with Auntie Vera than to do it with your


    mommy. After all, your mommy is a workaholic. She doesn''t even need to eat or sleep when she


    works. How can she take care of you?"


    When Beanie heard Vera''s words, his expression changed at once.


    "Mommy, you haven''t had dinner today?"


    Only then did Minerva realize that she was starving. She rubbed her tummy awkwardly. "It looks...


    like I didn''t eat at all."


    Vera heard her and almost wanted to curse. "I''ve been waiting for you the whole day. I don''t care.


    It''s your treat today. We''re going out for a big feast!"


    "Going out for a feast?" Minerva pondered for a moment. After that, she took out a hat from her bag


    and put it on Beanie''s head. "Let''s go. I''ll treat you all to a feast today."


    As soon as he heard about food, Beanie''s eyes glistened with excitement. He immediately hugged


    Minerva''s thigh. "Mommy, you are forgiven."


    "You only know how to eat... I have no idea whose genes you''re carrying."


    Beanie blinked his eyes. "Mommy, you don''t like eating a lot. I must be like daddy."


    Upon hearing that, her smile froze for a second. Momentster, she let out a chuckle and said,


    "Alright, no matter who you look like, you are my good child. Let''s go."


    Sam had sent back her car to her. Thus, Minerva drove the car, while Vera and Beanie sat in the


    back seat. They were heading towards a highly rated restaurant they found on the Inte for


    dinner.


    It was an upscale restaurant. There were dining tables on the first floor and private rooms on the


    second floor and above. Those who came in groups could have their meals on the upper floors. As


    there were only three of them and the restaurant was quite crowded, they chose a rtively quiet


    spot in the end.


    "Let''s order first."


    At this time, in a private room upstairs.


    "Young Master Yardley, I''d like to propose a toast to you!" A middle-aged man with a chubby face,


    Mr. Wood, raised his wine ss and toasted Maddox.


    On the other hand, Maddox, who was sitting opposite him, wore a nonchnt look without taking


    him seriously.


    Sam stood behind Maddox. He gave a slight smile. "Mr. Wood, it''s not good to propose a toast, is


    it?"


    As Mr. Wood heard him, his jaw tightened and his face lost its color. Then he put down the ss in


    his hand and said with embarrassment. "It''s my fault. I''ll punish myself with three sses of wine."


    Subsequently, he quickly poured himself three sses of wine and swallowed down a mouthful of


    wine.


    When the people around caught sight of him, they apuded in no time.


    "Mr. Wood, you''re good at drinking."


    "Mr. Wood, you are fortunate enough to have invited Young Master Yardley today. In the past,


    Young Master Yardley was preupied with work, so he couldn''t join us even if we invited him over.


    It''s a memorable day today."


    The few of them had been ttering Maddox all this while. It caused headaches in the others.


    Maddox furrowed his brows unpleasantly. Sam immediately straightened. "Everyone, let''s get down


    to business."


    The crowd nodded right away.


    Hence, everyone started to talk about business. Maddox was fed up with it and started looking


    around. There were casement windows in the private room. Maddox turned around and managed to


    look downstairs.


    At first, Maddox merely took a casual nce, but suddenly his eyes fell on a person. He was


    attracted by a figure at the corner.


    Maddox kept his eyes glued to her. Then, he narrowed his eyes.


    Why was she here?


    Minerva was sitting opposite Maddox''s view, while Beanie and Vera were sitting together. As it


    would take some time for the dishes to be served, the both of them yed the mobile game


    together.


    On the other hand, Minerva took out her repaired phone and opened her social media to have a


    look.


    After Emily shoved her phone away, she heard a cracking sound from her phone. The screen must


    have been smashed. Out of her expectations, Sam had gotten it fixed for her.


    As she thought of the person, Minerva opened her Facebook application.


    There was Maddox''s ount on the friends request list.


    Nevertheless, he was cklisted by her at that moment.


    Why did she think of him again? Minerva''s expression changed abruptly. He was already married.


    What was she thinking?


    Minerva ced her phone on the table and looked opposite with a gentle look.

    At this present moment, in the private room, after the bosses finished talking with Maddox, they


    found out that he paid no attention to them at all. When they looked at him again, they noticed him


    looking down through the casement window.


    "Er... What''s there below to look at?"


    Several people looked in his direction and caught sight of a woman with perfect facial features and


    delicate beauty.


    Everyone was dumbfounded, yet they swiftly came to their senses.


    "It is said that Young Master Yardley distances himself from women. It may not be the case."


    "Young Master Yardley, it looks like you''re interested in her."


    "Well understand!" The crowd burst intoughter all of the sudden.


    Nheless, theughter did notst long. Out of the blue, Maddox turned around and stared at


    them with a somber expression.
