When she ran downstairs, Vera quickly ran back home again and shoved her bag into her cabinet. It was full of pregnancy test kits. If Quill saw it, it would be terrible.

No.

Vera paused for a moment, and then she looked at the bag dazedly.

Why would Quill go to the restaurant at this moment for her?

Then, Vera thought of Ernest, who had come to look for her not too long ago. Could it be? But... Ernest had clearly promised to keep it a secret. Why did he already tell Quill? While thinking about it, Vera was startled by the vibration of her phone in her pocket. Vera quickly took it out and glanced at it.

Her breath nearly stopped!

It was Quill.

Vera took a deep breath and calmed her breathing before answering the call. "Hello?"

'TH go to you," Quill called Vera after hearing Mabie's words, and Mabie also told him about Vera's performance that day. "There's no need. I'll be out soon. Wait for me. I'll go to you."

After saying that, Vera was about to turn around and leave, but she heard Quill's firm voice from the other end of the phone. "Listen to me and wait for me at home. Don't move." Quill said.

Vera was at a loss for words.

"I'm your boyfriend. This is what I should do. I may not always know what to do, and you can order me instead of always running to me. Understand?"

If Vera heard these gentle words under normal circumstances, she would be touched. However, hearing them now, she became more frightened the more he spoke.

Quill wasn't usually like this. Was the reason he suddenly became so considerate was that she was pregnant? Was that why he treated her like this?

Vera bit her lower lip. "Um, do you know..."

"What?"

"No, nothing. Are you really coming over?"
