Just thinking about it was enough to make one's heart ache.

Vera remained where she stood, hesitating. After a long while, just as she decided to give up and leave.

Quill moved.

Then, he just happened to look in Vera's direction.

At first, he only glanced at this side unintentionally. After taking a glance, he withdrew his gaze.

As he looked away, this handsome man paused and looked back again, as if he wanted to confirm something.

Although they were a little far away from each other, Vera's vision was good, so she saw Quill's movements clearly. Of course, she knew that he had seen her now, and she had no chance to leave at all. Sigh, if she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have hesitated for so long; she should've just left as soon as she could.

Now...

Vera braced herself and walked over. She raised her hand to Quill with no expression on her face, and the corners of her mouth lifted casually.

"Good morning, President Hanover. Where is Sam?"

Quill was still a little surprised when he saw the young lady walking towards him. Because according to the previous two situations, he thought that she would definitely turn around and walk away when she met him.

He hadn't expected she would walk toward him.

Inexplicably, the color in Quill's eyes darkened.

But very quickly, he felt as if a wet blanket had been thrown at him.

The young lady had indeed walked over to him, but she spoke extremely politely to him.

"Good morning, President Hanover. Where is Sam?"

Not only had she addressed him as President Hanover, but she also came to ask about Sam?

He felt as if something had entered his chest and then ran from his heart to all four of his limbs.

He couldn't stop himself from asking.

"Are you two seeing each other?"

Huh?
