"Knock it off!"

Being scolded, the staff member stuck their tongue out and said, "It's not like I've said anything wrong."

"Miss Zais?"

Vera snapped back to her senses. Looking at the exquisitely decorated room and the gift she had prepared, she grabbed it and left after some thought.

"Thank you for all your hard work, but I'm afraid we won't be coming back. I have to go see how he's doing."

"Sure, Miss Zais, go ahead. Be sure to clear things out between you two."

"Thank you."

After Vera left, the gabby staff member couldn't help expressing their views again.

"I'm sure it's her aggressiveness that led to her boyfriend's detestation. See what happens when women don't value themselves? If you guys ever got yourself a boyfriend, don't be like her."

An older staff member gave her a side-eye as she said, "Only youngsters like you will think of finding a boyfriend who simp over you. What, are you born into money, or are you worshipped at the altar? Do people have to hold you dearly forever?"

C'mon, don't say that. If he doesn't do that before marriage, then won't it be worse after marriage?"

"Yeah, right. What matters in love is equality. You can say all this so confidently only because you haven't met the person you like. When you do, try saying this again."

Vera did not hear their comments, nor did she want to.

After she left the restaurant, she began to search for Quill. However, he was nowhere to be found. Thus, she went to the parking lot, and as expected, his car was no longer there.

Extremely anxious, she tried calling Quill. But as luck would have it, her phone was dead.

She had been so preoccupied with the preparations she had forgotten to charge her phone.

She didn't know what was going on, and she had no idea where Quill had gone. After some thought, Vera finally hailed a taxi and went to the Hanover Corporation first.

However, instead of Quill, she bumped into Juliette, who was
