In the Hanover Villa.

"Cough, cough..."

"Mr. Hanover, are you alright? Do you need to go to the hospital?" Worried, Nash suggested to Quill.

"Cough, cough..."

What only replied to him were his coughs, and it was hard to hear.

Nash's heart ached to see Quill like this.

When he came back the night before, he was soaking wet, and it was cold, so Nash advised him to take a hot shower. However, he sat on the sofa for a long time instead, depressed and unapproachable. He fell sick immediately the next morning.

Distressed, Nash suggested, "Mr. Hanover, I'll get the car and take you to the hospital."

"It's fine," Quill replied with a hoarse voice after he finished his coughing fit. "It's nothing to worry about. I don't need to go to the hospital."

"Why won't you see a doctor even when you're coughing like this? You take your health too lightly! Even if you're young, you need to get treated before it gets worse." Nash said seriously.

However, Quill didn't pay any attention to his nagging but stood up and walked outside. Nash's expression shifted slightly. "Where are you going, Mr. Hanover?"

"I have something I need to deal with."

Nash wanted to go with Quill, but he refused, so Nash was forced to stay home in the end.

Meanwhile, Quill kept trying to call Vera on his way to see her.
