Vera slowly let out a murky breath and showed a satisfied smile.

She was facing the window when she did that, so she thought Quill didn't notice. But who would've thought, just as she finished feeling joyous, she heard Quill's voice. "What are you smiling at, Mrs. Hanover?"

Hearing this, the smile on Vera's face suddenly froze. She stayed frozen for a long time before she came to her senses and looked at Quill.

"You... What are you talking about? Who is smiling?"

Her face reddened while she denied it.

Seeing her like this, Quill couldn't help but pinched her cheek. He chuckled. "You, of course. Your reflection is on the window."

Oh-

After hearing his words, Vera's face, which was slightly flushed just now, turned completely red. She glared at Quill and turned her head away angrily. She didn't want to talk to him anymore!

After that, she thought of something, so she turned her head back again and angrily said, "Don't

call me Mrs. Hanover!"

They weren't married yet!

Hearing that, Quill tried to hold his laughter in as he raised his eyebrows. "Oh? Didn't you just admit that we're married in front of everyone? You said that I'm your husband, but you forbid me from calling you Mrs. Hanover. What logic is that?"

Vera tried to stand up for herself, "I faked it to anger Lauren. You knew exactly!"

They whispered. But because they needed the other party to hear, they leaned close, and their breaths brushed each other's faces.

At such a close distance, he can see her lips opening and closing in front of him. At first, Quill was still calm, but he became a little turned-on after some time. He coughed lightly once and said, "Why don't I act with you then? Besides, you've already called me your husband. Wouldn't I lose out if... I don't call you my wife?"

Hearing his words, Vera's eyes widened as she looked at him, speechless.

"What are you losing out on? You are a man; I'm the one suffering losses, okay?"

Quill smiled lightly and said, "Who says a man won't suffer losses? You saw what that woman was planning. She had been thinking about your mister the entire time. Let's see who dares to make a move if they found out I'm married?"
