So that's what happened.
Vera suddenly understood and nodded. Then, she showed Sam a sweet smile and said, "You are really a competent assistant. You are so thoughtful of Young Master Yardley and Young Madam. Young Master Yardley will be very grateful if he knows about this. He will definitely reward you with a year-end bonus."
The year-end bonus...
Sam smiled faintly and replied, "Probably. Please put in a good word for me in front of Young Madam."
"Ah, you have been putting up with everything, just for that?" Vera thought of something else. "But hasn't the year just passed?"
"Young Master Yardley has lost his memory. As a result, he hasn't paid me any salary this year."
"I understand!" She nodded her head forcefully, "Don't worry, I will definitely put in a few good words in front of Minerva for you, and I'll let her perform her magic for you!"
He stared gently at her face and then turned to look at the coat.
"So you can put on the coat now."
Initially, she wanted to give it back to him, but now, she assumed that Sam was treating her nicely because he wanted her help. It was not a big deal for her to say a few good words about him. What's more, she was afraid that if she did not accept his coat, he might feel that she did not want to help him.
After she thought things through, she finally put on the coat with a sense of relief.
Then, she patted his shoulder and said, "Thanks for your coat! And don't worry, I will definitely put in some good words for you!"
Jeremy remained silent as he stood at the other side.
He had heard their conversation, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
What a sight! That was the first time he witnessed someone trying to win a girl over through this way. After all, he and Sam were old friends. When Vera left, he couldn't help but walk over and whispered, "Don't blame me for not reminding you that you will never be able to get her like this."
Sam didn't reply.
Jeremy said, "From what I observed, you guys are in a love triangle, right?"
Sam raised his eyebrows. He squinted his eyes and glanced at him.
"You like her, but she likes him?" Jeremy asked.
"Shut up. It's none of your business." Sam snapped back at him.
When Jeremy saw him like this, he immediately laughed, "I was already surprised when I saw that Maddox could be suppressed by a woman! Who knew that his assistant was going through the same situation! Is this what people say 'birds of a feather flock together'?"
"Alright, alright. I'm just joking around, but don't blame me for not telling you in advance. You will never succeed in chasing her this way. What's more, she doesn't have any feelings for you to begin with. If you don't express your feelings now, sooner or later she'll get taken away."
Sam frowned but suddenly heard Vera's voice as she turned around and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Because Jeremy's voice was very low, she could only hear his murmur as she was standing at a distance. She couldn't hear what they were talking about at all. Sam answered with a hint of guilt, "Nothing, we were just chatting."
Jeremy let out an evil laugh. "We're just having a heart-to-heart talk, and I'm asking my bro how he chases after girls."
Sam was unable to say anything.
Vera looked at him suspiciously. With such a nerdy look, how could he chase after a girl?
However, she did not say anything. Instead, she glanced at Quill, who had remained silent the entire time.
Even though he had followed the group out, he didn't really speak much. Perhaps he wanted to follow along because he was concerned about Minerva's safety?
"Is it that you don't dare to answer, or do you not want to answer me?"
