Vera even got mad that time.

Thinking about it now, she felt awkward and embarrassed. After all, to her, although he was Quill's friend, she didn't know him that well.

Vera didn't know how to respond to his sudden ridicule.

Ernest put down the teacup and said to her leisurely with a smile.

"What's wrong? It's a good thing for you to be dating. What's with that look?"

Seeing the faint smile on Ernest's face, Vera finally understood that Ernest came on purpose after hearing about this matter.

Although Vera didn't know their relationship and why he cared so much about Quill's love life, she didn't have the guts to ask so directly. However, Ernest was also a smart person. He quickly guessed what was on Vera's mind and asked lightly, "You're wondering why am I here?" Umm...

Vera did not answer, but her face said it all.

"Honestly, I just find it interesting. Do you remember the person I wanted to introduce you to

before?"

Hearing what he said, Vera was stunned for a moment, but she understood almost immediately. "Don't tell me the person you talked about was Quill."

Ernest smiled and nodded.

Vera was at a loss for words.

"He has been single for years; there has never been a girl that he took a fancy to. The first time he came to me was about your matter. I was astonished to hear another girl's name apart from his sister, so I became curious. Weren't you mad when you were at the police station the last time? In fact, you don't have to think so. The fact that he would request from others for you could only prove one thing." Vera didn't quite understand why Ernest was there that day. Could it be that he was trying to put in a good word for Quill? However, in Vera's eyes, Quill was already the best among the bests. "Although it's unnecessary for me to say these things now, I should still put in a good word or two for my friend, don't I?" Ernest smiled faintly as if he was just joking. Vera couldn't help but show a smile.

"No matter what, I should really thank you, Mr.

Lowell."

"Oh?" Ernest raised his eyebrows when he heard her words. "Thank me? What for? I wanted to introduce you to him, but you didn't agree to it."
