After Juliette left, she walked up to Minerva and asked, "Minerva, do you want some water? I'll pour some for you." Hearing this, Minerva couldn't help but frown. She looked at her thoughtfully. Vera felt guilty, thus she lowered her head.

"I'm fine. In fact, you don't have to take care of me here all the time. I am not a patient nor a child. I can take care of myself."

"What? No!" Vera shook her head vigorously. "Although you are neither a patient nor a child, you are a fragile pregnant woman. How can I let a pregnant woman stay here all alone?"
