She did not want to go back.

However this time, she still had Minerva's house to stay in after her resignation.

But she felt hollow inside.

Beanie was overseas accompanying his grandfather while Minerva was with Maddox. Out of the three of them, she was the only one left.

Vera felt lonely and she naturally thought of her family at a time like this.

However, when she thought about how her father hadn't called her all these years, she felt aggrieved. She wanted nothing more than to go home but she also did not want to be the first to give in. People tended to be frivolous when they were young. However, she did not expect her words to become the result of her suffering.

It would be great if her father called and asked her to come home now.

All Vera did these days were eat and sleep. She felt like she had become a loser.

She felt miserable. She had never felt as lonely as she had been now. Coupled with the feeling of lovelorn, she felt as if she had been abandoned by the entire world.

Although it was an unrequited love.

Love was indeed troublesome. This was true. She should not have meddled with love in the first place. She was the one who brought this to herself.

Vera thought that it would be nice if someone was there to accompany her.

She turned over in bed and felt that the sunshine shining through the window was glaring. Vera got out of bed and closed the curtains, the room became dark in an instant.

She felt much more comfortable.

Vera walked back to the bed and laid down.

However, her phone suddenly rang. Vera was surprised that someone was actually looking for her.
