Even after saying what she wanted to, Jennifer's expression remained mysterious. "All right, I've told you everything I know. Please keep this between us. See ya."
After she left, Vera was still standing mindlessly at the spot, unable to digest what the receptionist had divulged to her.
Yulia was Quill's fiancee?
If what she said was true, then... What is she?
A homewrecker who forcibly wedged herself in between two lovers?
"Missy, are you going to get in the car or not?"
The driver's urge pulled Vera back to reality. "I'm sorry, sir. Could you please wait for me for a little while? I have something to confirm."
"Wait for you? What about my business?"
"Please, sir. I'll tip you more for the fare later."
Hearing what she said, the driver nodded with satisfaction and replied, "Fine, go on then. But don't make me wait for too long."
After that, Vera ran back. But she stopped again halfway.
Wait, why should she ask Yulia about it?
If she really was Quill's fiancee, then Vera should ask Quill about it instead. After all, Quill was her boyfriend.
She wanted to hear it from him.
Thinking of this, Vera turned back. Seeing that she came back so quickly, the driver looked at her quizzically.
"You don't need to go in anymore?"
"No. I just remembered I have something else to settle. Let's go."
"Where to?"
At first, Vera had wanted to give him the Hanover Villa address, but it turned into hers when her words reached the tip of her tongue. "Let's go."
Although she didn't know where Quill was at the moment, she decided to let him cool down if he didn't want to see her.
Besides, Vera's mind was in a state of chaos. Jennifer's words had left her gobsmacked.
She thought she should go home and think things through.
After returning home, Vera went to bed before even having dinner. As she laid down, tears flowed unconsciously, and then the floodgates opened.
D*ckhead...
Even if he never celebrated his birthdays, he could've just told her. Then she wouldn't have done so. Why wouldn't he say a thing?
Vera curled up into a ball as she hugged her quilt. Her tears were like beads on a broken string, jostling their way out of her eyes.
She had spent so much time and effort preparing it. All she wanted was to celebrate his birthday and... tell him she was pregnant.
However, he left just like that. She couldn't even find him.
D*ckhead... A*shole...
Vera kept cursing Quill in her heart. She turned over and continued to cry.
Why couldn't he just tell her?
Knock, knock...
"Vivy, what's going on? You came home without a word. Don't you want to eat something?"
Mabie's voice startled Vera. She quickly yanked the quilt over her head. She couldn't speak now because she had just cried. If she did, her voice would definitely betray her, and Mabie would be suspicious.
If her mother found out she had cried, Mabie would definitely interrogate her.
Therefore, Vera could only hide under the quilt and pretend to sleep.
