"Did you have this with Quill? Did you have any other relationships with him apart from growing up together?" Yulia was rendered speechless by her words. She did not expect Minerva to speak so bluntly and harshly.

In reality, Minerva had let Yulia pour her heart out because she was considering the fact that she might have something to say about this.

However, she did not expect Yulia would use her as an example.

And even brought up her most painful memory.

Since Yulia chose to be blunt, Minerva would not be gentle with her either and lay it all out.

"Am I wrong?" Minerva smiled and said coldly, "There's no romantic relationship between you and my brother. Moreover, I have a hunch he doesn't know anything about the engagement either. Otherwise, based on his personality, he'd long call off the engagement if he doesn't have any feelings toward you. There's no way he'd let you believe you two have an engagement until now."

Shocked, Yulia's lips turned bloodless.

"You..." "Yulia, you used to be the daughter of the Maxwell family. I won't say anything unpleasant. I'm sure you know where I'm going with this."

Yulia sat silently, looking extremely unpleasant as she bit her lower lip. She suddenly laughed.

"Yes, you're right. There isn't any romance between us. It's all just my wishful thinking. No matter how crazy I am about him, I won't get anything in response."

"I meant what I said. If you're willing, a new life awaits you. No matter how it'd turn out, it'd be better than living in the shadows of the happiness of others."

After that, Minerva stood up with Jelly Bean in her arms and said, "That's all I want to say. I'm sure you're well aware of a lot of things, so I won't say anything more. Jelly Bean needs to sleep; I'm taking her home."

Minerva dipped her head and left.

Seeing that, Yulia clenched her fists and gnashed her teeth, "Minerva, hang on."

Hearing that, Minerva stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Yulia.

"Is there anything else?" "You..." Looking rather unpleasant, she grabbed the hem of her skirt tightly and hesitated, "Do you hate me?"
