"Wake up. Vera," Minerva bent down and gently patted Vera's ruddy cheeks, trying to wake her up.
Who would have thought that at that moment, Vera actually let out a squeaky laugh, and then she continued to sleep.
"Let me help you bring her upstairs," just as Minerva was feeling helpless, Quill's voice came from behind her.
Minerva turned around and asked, "Quill, can you do it?"
"Well, you are also tired today. You can take Beanie upstairs to have a rest first. Leave it to me."
Minerva looked at Vera and nodded. "Okay, then I'll go upstairs first."
"Loraine."
Seeing Loraine again, Minerva felt a little emotional. Loraine's expression was still as gentle as before. She looked at her and smiled kindly. "Miss, come with me."
After Minerva and Beanie left, Quill looked at Vera who was still inside the car.
The seat she was sitting in was a little far from the car door, so he could only reach half of his body over and call out in a low voice, "Wake up."
Vera didn't hear it at all. She closed her eyes and continued to immerse herself in the wonderful dream. Quill frowned slightly. Looking at her, it seemed like she would not wake up for that night.
"Forget it. For the sake of Minerva, I'd better carry her upstairs."
Thinking of this, Quill had to go to the other side of the car to open the door. Just as he wanted to bend down to hug Vera, his hands stopped in the air before touching her.
He didn't have the habit of touching women.
Quill straightened up and looked around. Other than Nash, there was no one else who could help her.
Was he going to ask Nash to carry Vera in? Never mind whether Nash's body could support her weight or not, it was not appropriate for him, an old man, to carry a girl upstairs either.
Realizing that he had already promised Minerva, Quill could only helplessly call out to Vera a few more times. In the end, Quill had no choice but to reach out and pick her up, as she was sleeping too soundly.
Vera, when being picked up by him, actually reached out to hug his neck. Her soft and seemingly boneless little hands touched Quill's neck, and he could not help but frown.
"Oh... Hahaha."
Quill looked down at her and saw that she was giggling. Her expression and voice sounded particularly silly.
Quill pursed his thin lips and quickly stepped up the stairs with his slender legs.
The Hanover family's guest room would be cleaned every once in a while, so Quill took her directly to the guest room and then put her on the big bed. When he wanted to retract his hands, he realized that Vera was unwilling to loosen her grip around his neck.
"Let go of me!" Quill chided in a cold voice. He wanted to shake her hands off his neck.
Vera did not loosen her grip on him, but instead, she wrapped her hands even tighter. Quill frowned deeply. Before he could react, he saw Vera, who was lying on the bed, suddenly pout and lean towards him.
Quill's face changed. Just as he was about to stop her, Vera suddenly opened her eyes.
Her eyes that were free of any distracting thoughts, suddenly came into his sight, with the confusion and stupidity after waking up, as well as... some other things while she approached him.
Quill's face was cold, and his eyes stared at her fiercely.
Probably because of his aura, Vera suddenly stopped when she was almost touching Quill.
All of a sudden, she seemed to be petrified. She was frozen in place, and even her expression and actions were still the same.
Vera looked at Quill who was in front of her; he was very near to her. The two of them were so close that their breaths were mixed together.
Was she... was she dreaming?
But... she remembered when she was in the dream, the prince charming kissed her so hard that she was out of breath. Vera knew that Quill in the real world would never treat her like that, because in the real world, Quill only loved his sister. Even if he wanted to find a woman, he would never find a woman like her.
Vera was stupid, with a low IQ. Although she was more beautiful than most women, she was not as good-looking as a lot of other women either.
Therefore, she did her best to kiss him back in her dream.
