Seeing her like that, Vera didn't bother being polite. She pulled a long face and said, "I didn't hear it in the bathroom just now. Why are you so angry? Are you blaming me, Lauren?" Lauren was taken aback. She didn't expect Vera's attitude to change so quickly. She was smiling earlier, and she looked angry the next second as she stood there. Had she missed something? Vera actually had such a side? No matter how angry Lauren was, she didn't dare vent out her frustrations anymore. She had no choice but to change her words.
"It's nothing. I can't blyou since you didn't hearknock. I thought you were deliberately ignoring me, so I got anxious. You're not angry with me, are you?" The corners of Vera's mouth twitched as she looked at her.
"You thought I was ignoring you on purpose? Why is that so? I have no reason to do so, don't I? Could it be that you feel guilty because you did something wrong? Is that why you think I'm deliberately ignoring you?" Lauren was taken aback. She hadn't expected Vera to say such harsh words, and there was even a hint of inquiry in her tone.
What was going on? It had only been one morning. How did she change so quickly? No, it had only been an hour. Did something happen during this hour? Did Quill tell her? It was impossible. How could Quill talk about them? Was she making a wild guess? With that thought, Lauren's eyes flitted across Vera's face as if she was looking for an answer.
As she was searching Vera's face, Vera smiled brightly and said to Lauren in a soft voice, "Oh, Lauren, did I scare you? Do I really look so scary when I'm serious?" "Huh? What do you mean?" Lauren was baffled.
"I was just joking with you. I didn't expect you to be scared. Lauren, don't be angry. Letapologize to you." Vera said.

What on earth was this b*tch trying to do? "By the way, Lauren, where's my toothbrush and facial cleanser? Why did you cempty-handed? Didn't you say that you would bring them over?" Vera looked a little disappointed. "If I had known, I would've looked forthem myself." Lauren cback to her senses; she didn't know if Vera was acting. But since she brought it up, Lauren had to continue her act.
She could not be exposed; she had to maintain her facade.
"Oh, now that you mentioned it, I didn't find your toothbrush and your facial cleanser. Did you remember wrongly? If you really can't find them, I'll help you look for them inside. Maybe it's in your suitcase." After that, Lauren took a step forward and wanted to go in. Unexpectedly, Vera stepped in front of her and blocked the door. She said with a smile, "It's alright, Lauren. If I really can't find the toothbrush, I'll use Quill's for now. I think he also has a facial cleanser. I'll use his first." "You'll use his? It's not hygienic to share a toothbrush, isn't it?" "You're right, it seems a little unhygienic." Vera held her chin and thought seriously for a while before saying, "But he's my boyfriend, so it's not a big deal if I use it once. I'll buy a new one later." Vera's words made sense, so Lauren didn't know what to say anymore.
"Thank you for coming over, Lauren. I'll go and wash up now. Bye." With that, Vera closed the door, not wanting to wait for Lauren to react.
Lauren was about to say something when the door slammed shut. Lauren was so angry that she almost shouted. Vera leaned against the door and took a deep breath after she closed it. She seemed to have performed rather well if she said so herself. It felt good to see Lauren was shocked by her attitude in the beginning.
Lauren probably hadn't expected Vera to have such a side.
However, it was also good. Lauren wouldn't think that she was easy to bully! Although she hadn't taken any actual actions yet, Vera still remembered what she tried to do the night before.
It was obvious that Vera felt very uncomfortable when other women tried to get close to Quill.
"Feel better now?" Quill's voice suddenly sounded behind her. Vera was so surprised that she instinctively turned around and bumped against his chin.
"Ugh..." Quill lost his balance and took half a step back. They had knocked into each other hard.
Not only did Vera hurt Quill's chin, but she also hurt her forehead. A red mark appeared within seconds. "Ouch." Vera covered her forehead, looking at Quill pitifully with a complaint.
Seeing her like that, Quill didn't have the heart to fault her anymore. He ignored the pain and asked in a gentle voice, "Are you hurt? It's my fault. Letsee." Quill checked her forehead, blew on it gently, and rubbed her forehead. Under such ntle treatment, Vera slowly raised her head and asked, "Umm... Do you think I'm being a bit unreasonable?" "Unreasonable?" Quill paused. He looked into Vera's eyes and leaned toward her; she felt his hot breath on her face.

"What do you mean by unreasonable? You can do whatever you want. Besides, I'm your boyfriend. No matter how unreasonable you are, I will tolerate you. Alright?" Ever since they got together, Vera found that he was really tolerant of her. Although she felt that she had done many wrong things, Quill would never lose his temper al ne harsh words to her. He was O practically perfect.
But it was exactly the reason why she felt deeply uneasy.
Vera put her arm around Quill's waist and hugged him. "But would you be patient fotforever?" She asked in her heart.
Of course, she only dared to ask it in her heart.
Dimitri finally cin the afternoon.
He smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr.
Hanover, Mrs. Hanover, because m we've been delayed for a whole morning, we only have the afternoon and evening left. So I changed today's schedule and plans. Why don't you made a few have a look?" With that, he handed the schedule to Quill, who handed it directly to Vera without looking at it. He said softly, "See if you're happy with it."
Vera was startled. She hadn't expected Quill to hand it to her om without even looking at it. It gave her Leven to an impression that everything was up to her. "Oh, then lettake a look..." She said. X
