"Ernest, please stop it. I beg you. If you continue, I'll dig a hole and bury myself in it." Vera said.

She really didn't think that she would bump into Ernest on a random trip to the drug store, much less that he would actually deliver the things she had left behind to the restaurant, or even tease her. "What's the big deal? Isn't it just a pregnancy test kit?"

Hearing him say that, Vera couldn't stand it anymore. Did he know he was a man? Wouldn't he feel embarrassed at mentioning it so frequently in front of a woman? Vera felt she was really going crazy, but she didn't know how to stop him. However, what she was most worried about was whether Ernest would tell Quill about it.

If Quill found out, he would definitely ask her about it.

Vera felt that she had to make it clear to Ernest no matter what. After thinking for a while, Vera sat down in front of him and said, "Ernest, I'll take your delivery today as a good intention. But I don't wish for a third person to know about what happened today. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Why? Don't you want to tell him such an important thing?" Ernest asked.

"It's not that I don't want to tell him, but Ernest, I didn't buy them for myself, but my friend." Vera began to lie. But it was obvious Ernest did not believe her.

"Your friend? Can you tell me who this friend is?"

"Oh, Ernest, why are you asking this? If my friend asked me to buy it for her, it means she doesn't want others to know. If she wanted others to know, she wouldn't ask me to buy. Ernest, don't you think that makes sense?"

Hearing this, Ernest raised his eyebrows and said, "You seem to be right, but why does it still feel off for some reason?"

"What's off? There's nothing off at all. Don't ask anymore, Ernest," Vera said.

Alright, Ernest could see that she didn't want to talk about it deeply anymore, so he changed his line of questioning, "Do you know why your friend doesn't want others to know?"

Vera heaved a sigh of relief. Did that mean Ernest believed her? Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked like that. However, Vera had no reason to refuse such an interrogation. She could only say, "Maybe it's because there are uncertain factors, or maybe she has reasons she doesn't want to tell others. I
