Quill was waiting for Vera in the living room.
When Vera cout, she walked over to him with her head hung low. "W-why did you ask me... to cover?" She stammered.
Was she that nervous? Quill pursed his lips and said after a moment of silence, "I have to go back to the office now. I have a meeting at two; it'll probably end around three-thirty." Vera thought his words were odd. Why did he suddenly say that to her? What does his meeting have to do with her?" "I don't have any other plans after the meeting." The next sentence made Vera even more confused. She couldn't help but raise her head to look at him with a quizzical look.
Her innocent and naive expression made Quill feel a little helpless. But he didn't think it was a bad thing. A faint smile appeared in his eyes.
"Do you want to go to the office with me?" Vera didn't know how to reply.
He... was actually inviting her to go to the office with him? "Go to the office with you?" She asked him in uncertainty.
Quill nodded. Seeming uncertain about it, he asked again, "Do you want to go?" "Yes!" Vera nodded hard and said in a louder voice. After that, she felt like her reaction was too much. She then quickly held herself back and explained, "I mean, I have nothing else to do anyway. So, why not. After explaining, she began to regret it. Why did she say so much? If she didn't explain, it would be awkward. But now that she explained, it seemed as if she was trying to hide it, exposing herself even more. Vera really wanted to bite her tongue off.

When they left, an adult and a child were watching by the window on the second floor.
Beanie raised his head and looked at Minerva. "Mommy, is Auntie Vera going to becUncle's wife?" Upon hearing the term Uncle's wife, Minerva was surprised to find it especially pleasing to the ear. The corners of her lips arched into a smile, and she reached out her hand to rub Beanie's head. "Most probably, it should be quite soon." "Oh." Beanie nodded. "Then I can go to Auntie Vera's house for meals openly in the future." Minerva didn't know what to say.
What kind of son had she raised? All he thought of was going to Vera's place for delicious food? In the office.
When Quill and Vera entered the office together, the receptionist immediately recognized the person next to President Hanover was the person who delivered the food previously. At first, she thought she had seen it wrong, but Vera's eyes just happened to meet hers when she looked over.
Just a glance, she immediately looked away guiltily.
She hadn't forgotten about what had happened before. She and the others had ganged up to cause trouble for her. If this girl wanted to get her revenge, she would definitely be the first to be punished. Upon thinking of that, the receptionist regretted not watching her mouth.
However, Vera just gave her a glance and quickly caught up with Quill's footsteps, completely ignoring her. The receptionist breathed a sigh of relief and quickly opened her Facebook Messenger.
She originally wanted to tell her colleagues about the news, because they had already decided to go to her restaurant that weekend to cause stroubles. If she warned them now, it shouldn't be too late. So the receptionist sent a message about this in the group chat.
The others immediately jumped in surprise.
"What the hell? The delivery girl cto the company with President Hanover? What does this mean? Did she really manage to seduce him?" "What the f*ck, who exactly is she? It hasn't been that long, hasn't it? You can't even catfish that fast, can you?" "D*mn it! To think that we actually lost to a delivery girl, I feel so irritated all over now!" "I know, right. Let's go and teach her a good lesson this week. By then, we should ask her if she's better at making pasta or serving men?" Seeing those words, the receptionist remembered Juliette's warning last time.
"You guys shouldn't cause any more trouble. We'd better not go this week. Don't offend people and get ourselves in trouble. Secretary Sharpie has also toldnot to cause any more troubles." However, the others didn't take it seriously.
"Why are you such a coward, Jennifer? Are you afraid just because Secretary Sharsaid a few words? Don't forget that She used to like President Hanover as well. If the delivery girl is really dating the president, then the most furious one would be Secretary Sharpio. Compared to us the one who really wants to kill the girl should be her." "That's right. She was warning you not to cause trouble on the surface, but in fact, she's trying to hint that you should cause more trouble." Seeing the messages, Jennifer felt a little confused. How could it be possible? Secretary Sharobviously warned her not to do it again, and she looked serious then; she didn't look like she was joking at all. "I don't think so... She looked serious." "Of course she had to be. What's her background? She graduated from al famous university, and she has a good figure and looks. How long has she been working under President Hanover? Everyone knows how capable she is, but she lost to a delivery girl. If it were you, wouldn't you be serious?" Their words made sense, yet Jennifer was still hesitant.
"But she is now with President Hanover; what if she tells him about it?" "Don't worry. Would President Hanover really fall in love with such a woman? He's just probably playing with her for a bit. It wouldn't be long until we see her crying.
Jennifer felt a little helpless as she looked at the messages. She really wanted to say that she had never want the seen the president womanizing. That aside, he never even had a girlfriend...

They cat a precise timing, so as soon as they entered the office, Juliette knocked on the door and entered. When Juliette saw a beautiful silhouette in the office, she was stunned at first. Then an understanding smile appeared on her face.
"President Hanover, do you needto postpone the meeting for you?"
"No need." Quit looked at Juliette indifferently and said in a cold voice, "Go and prep first.
problems Hit be there shortly.
No problem... Juliette gave Vera ameaningful glance before she left, Vera was so embarrassed that she quickly looked away. After she left, there were only two of them left in the office, and the coldness in Quill's tone had faded a lot.
"I'll be back right after the meeting. Wait forhere?" Quill looked right at her and asked.
Vera nodded subconsciously. "Okay, sure." After Quill went out, she was left alone in his office. Vera blinked and looked around. She kept feeling all of it was surreal.
Why did he bring her to the company? Vera couldn't think straight earlier because Quill was om beside her. Now that he had left for his meeting, Vera could finally calm down and give it a good thought. According to what Quill told her before, he didn't have anything else to do after the meeting, and he also told her to wait here. Did he... have something to say to her? X
