"You're actually awake?!"

Vera asked in surprise and the answer of the affirmative.

"I've been awake the whole time."

Vera was dumbfounded.

"Then why didn't you move an inch when I've been searching high and low."

Then, Quill let out a low grunt. "I didn't have the heart to disturb you seeing how much fun you're having." His voice was hoarse from sleep.

His words were mockery in her ears, and she suddenly pounced on him, beating him out of anger.

"How could you?! You were wide awake, yet you didn't say a thing. You must be entertained seeing me rummaging around like some sort of thief, right? It's bad enough you took my ID and purse for yourself, but you're even poking fun at me. You're enjoying all of this, aren't you?"

Quill had a triumphant smirk in the beginning, but it gradually faded after Vera lost her temper.

"Not at all. If possible, I wouldn't want to confiscate your ID and purse. But if I don't, you'd run away the next second. What am I to do then?"

What would he do then?

For a moment, Vera was swayed by his words. Would he be affected by Vera's absence?

Did Quill need her?

However, she still couldn't give up the moral high ground no matter how much Quill needed her. It was fine if she remained blissfully unaware, but if she continued the relationship after finding out, then what would that make her?

With that thought in mind, Vera clenched her jaw as she retorted.

"That's your business. You can always find another woman to warm your bed."

Quill's gaze darkened after hearing her words, and he tightened his grip on her wrist. "You want me to look for another woman?"

"Yes!" Vera nodded vigorously. "I don't want you anymore, so go and find another one!"

Vera said matter-of-factly, "I was captivated by your looks, but I've gotten bored of it. So, I'm dumping you. Plus, I realized you don't care about your girlfriend at all. All you know is to get your head stuck in your affairs. I visit you and bring you food to
