Ernest grew up with Yulia.

He knew her thoughts all too well. He probably knew her best in this world apart from her parents.

Because he was good at observing human nature.

Yulia was definitely the kind of person who hid her emotions very well. If they had not grown up together, Ernest might not be able to guess what she was thinking. "What do you mean by that?" Yulia stared at him incredulously and gradually revealed a miserable smile.

Ernest finally put on a serious expression and said solemnly, "You've joined Hanover Corporation for some time. I'm sure you know Quill has a girlfriend by now."

"So what?" she asked.

Upon hearing this, Ernest knitted his eyebrows. So what?

"Don't you like him?" he asked.

"Yeah, I do. I won't pretend in front of you. I do like him, but what does it have to do with him having a girlfriend?"

Ernest was speechless.

"Just because he has a girlfriend, can't I even... love him secretly?" Yulia covered her heart and stressed each word. "Quill and I grew up together. I have loved him since I first met him. Even when I moved abroad, I never stopped loving him. Now, just because he has a girlfriend, I have to get rid of the affection completely? Am I not even allowed to work in the same company as him?"

Her confrontation made Ernest lose his tongue, but he soon found a way to retort. He took a few steps forward, rested his hand on Yulia's shoulder, and said softly, "He has found someone he likes now, so why do you want to do this to yourself?"

"I'm willing." Yulia avoided his contact and took a step back. She gazed at Ernest coldly. "It's my business whether I like him; it has nothing to do with anyone. Even if we grew up together, you have no right to interfere."

Ernest said, "Even if he never reciprocates your love, you are fine with it?"

"Yes!"

Seeing as if Ernest wanted to say more, Yulia interrupted him directly, "Ernest, say no more. Love is not something outsiders can interfere with. I believe you know it better than I do. If someone tells you to stop missing your late wife and marry another woman, would you?"
