Because her skin was fair, and the color of her lipstick was dark, so even if she wiped her skin quickly, there would still be traces left on her fair skin.
Feeling helpless, Vera could only use a makeup remover pad and said while applying it, "I'll be out soon." "What are you doing?" Mabie asked.
"Mrs. Zais, why don't you have a seat first." Quill's voice suddenly rang out outside the door. Vera was shocked. Why did he chere? Fortunately, she managed to remove the lipstick, but what was worse was her foundation also coff with it. Vera was speechless.
It really was an unlucky day. No matter what she did, things did not go well.
Vera could only remove all the foundation and wash her face with the facial cleanser.
When Quill cin, he saw her coming out of the bathroom with her face covered with drops of water.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTheir eyes met that instant.
Vera suddenly felt shameful. She had wanted to look good in front of him, but why did she mess it up again? She could only laugh awkwardly and explained herself, "I just woke up, so I thought I'd look fresher if I wash my face." Quill nodded. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and walked up to her to wipe the water drops on her face.
"Alright, let's go out for dinner. They've been waiting for you for a long time," Quill said.
Vera wanted to take the handkerchief and help him wash it, but Quill had already put it away, and took her out. Vera had wanted to ask why he had stayed for dinner. If he'd been here the whole afternoon, watching her sleep the whole time? However, in the end, she did not ask.
David and Mabie had already sat down. When Mabie saw them coming over, she also reached out and pushed her husband. "David, they look like a good match, don't you think?" David was wearing his reading glasses. He glanced at the two of them, and then said, "President Hanover is indeed a handsman. It's just that our daughter is a little..." "Bah, what are you talking about? How can you insult your daughter like this?" "It's exactly because she is my daughter, so I know what she's like," David replied.
"Humph, I don't care. My daughter is good enough for anyone. They are a perfect match," Mabie said. David was speechless.
He couldn't be bothered to argue with Mabie. Furthermore, what mattered in love was the people involved. Even if they matched aesthetically, it was useless if they had no feelings for each other.
At first, when David learned that Vera's boyfriend was President Hanover of the Hanover Corporation, he was actually shocked.
Other people may not know what the business in Hanover Corporation was like, but David, who worked in the Yardley Corporation, was all familiar with it.
The Yardley Corporation, Hanover Corporation, and Lowell Group were all well-known. In the past, David had arranged for Vera to work in the company because he hoped that his ordinary daughter could find a person who worked there. After getting married, she could live a happy life with her husband. Unexpectedly, she resigned halfway, which made him very angry. But later, David realized what mattered was his daughter's happiness. The most important thing in life was health.
Of course, if he hadn't had a near-death experience, he might not have understood this truth, so he always thought the person his daughter liked was an ordinary person, at most, a manager in a company. Who would've thought she would actually bring President Hanover home.
David was happy his daughter's boyfriend was impressive, but as a father, he was happy yet worried.
After all, that man was Quill Hanover from the Hanover Corporation. He had heard rumors that Quill was not interested in women, and there had never been any women around him. To suddenly be with his daughter, was it because he was old and wanted to get married, so he just picked someone at random? However, no matter how random it was, he couldn't have picked his daughter.
It was only after Mabie told him Quill's younger sister and Vera were best friends, and they often met when they were abroad, that David was a little relieved.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven so, he was still worried.
Of course, he loved his daughter, and because of that, he was worried Vera would suffer grievances in this relationship. After all, he was such an excellent man. What if he wasn't serious about Vera? What if he abandoned her just like that in the future? Of course, David did not say all of that out loud.
It was the first tQuill cas a guest. He didn't have tto prepare anything, but Mabie made a feast to entertain him.
"Quill, it's your first thaving dinner here, but I don't know what you like, so I made a bit of everything. I hope you won't mind it." Mabie spoke enthusiastically to Quill as soon as they got to the dining table.
Vera and Quill sat together. When Vera saw the dishes on the table, she was baffled. She had eaten so many meals at home, but this was the only tshe had seen such a feast, almost comparable to that of a five-star hotel.
It was a little extravagant, Vera thought.
Of course, they wouldn't be able to finish all the food.
Quill was also rather astonished, but when he saw Mabie's welcoming smile, he knew that Mabie was very enthusiastic about kim ofcourse't el may also be because of his identity that she was afraid of neglecting him. So he put down his guard and coldness and whispered, "Mrs. Zais, you don't have to do so much in the future. I'm not picky; I can eat anything."
Mabie smiled and said, "How can I? These are all plain hcooking. I'm used, sure you're noem. But it's to better to eat hCooking. You can't always eat what's outside. Although my skills are not as good as those chefs out there, my food is definitely healthy." Vera felt rather awkward listening to Mabie's nagging. Generally speaking, those five-star chefs, or even Quill's chefs, would definitely be qualified and would even pay attention to his health. "Mom..." Vera interrupted her. "Let's eat." After that, she looked at Quill and said carefully, "If you are not used to it, we can..." "No." Quill smiled slightly. "This is very heartwarming. I haven't experienced it for many years."
He had always eaten alone. When he ve was in high school, he went to Ernest's hto celebrate New Year opce, At that time, Ernest's hhad been like this. They celebrated with a feast, and everyone gathered around the table, having a blast. X
