Sylvia stormed home in anger. As she entered her house, Juliette just happened to be taking her leave. Juliette was Quill's secretary. No matter how unhappy Sylvia was, she should be polite to Juliette. Thus, Sylvia asked, "Secretary Sharpio, do you still have work at this hour?"

Juliette smiled and explained, "Yes, I am here to help President Hanover. It's getting late, I'm going home now.

Sylvia said gently, "I'll ask the driver to drop you home. It's not safe for you to be alone this late at night."

"It's okay, it's just a ten-minute drive back home for me. See you, Miss Sylvia."

After saying goodbye to Sylvia, Juliette left the house right away.

As soon as Juliette left, Sylvia's smile vanished. Then, she went upstairs and knocked on Quill's door.

"Quill, are you asleep?"

After a while, Quill answered her, "Not yet."

"Can I come in?" she asked.

"Sure."

Only then did a trace of a smile appear on Sylvia's face and she walked into the room.

"Quill, I attended the Yardley Corporation's anniversary dinner. I bought this dress yesterday, how do you think I look?"

Sylvia plucked up her courage and asked Quill.

She felt the need to have a good relationship with him. After all, she needed to rely on him.

Quill was sitting at his study table. His eyes didn't even flinch when he heard her. As the smile on Sylvia's face gradually disappeared, she walked slowly towards him. "Why are you still working at this hour?" she spoke again.

Quill finally grunted, "Yeah."
