Hearing Vera's words, the woman was silent for a while before she spoke.

"No matter what, thank you for helping me. I'm Lauren Lowell. What is your name?

Vera smiled innocently. "My name is Vera Zais!"

"Vera..." Lauren repeated her name thoughtfully. "Is the person with you your husband?"

The word husband made Vera blush. She embarrassedly scratched her head and shook her head.

"He's not?" Lauren looked at her quizzically and asked, "Didn't you two travel together?"

"Yeah." Vera nodded and explained softly, "We came to this trip together, but we're not husband and wife. We're just boyfriend and girlfriend."

Hearing Vera's explanation, Lauren smiled and said, "I see. I think he treats you well."

Really? Vera blinked. She was happy.

Even strangers could see that Quill was very good to her. Wasn't it a good thing?

Just when she was still deep in thought, Lauren spoke again, "But I feel that he's a little cold. Has he always been like this?"

Vera didn't think much about it and nodded.

"Yeah, he is a little cold. He has always been like this."

However, in Vera's opinion, it was better to say that he was steady. He was completely different from Maddox. Maddox was truly cold and insufferably arrogant; he wouldn't talk to people he was not familiar with.
