Yulia was despondent when she left Quill's office.

With the proposal in her hand, she didn't even look where she was going. She didn't even realize how many times the elevator had climbed or opened and closed as all that was in her mind was Quill's invitation to his wedding.

Why? Why so soon?

She had already promised to revive the Maxwell family. Couldn't he give her some time? Hadn't they been dating for only a short while? How had he already proposed?

Yulia's mind was in a mess. Recalling the hostility in Vera's eyes that day, she felt suffocated. How did it come to this?

What was she to do if they actually got married? What was there left for her to hope for?

Lately, the employees in Vera's restaurant had been envious of her love life when they saw the diamond ring on her finger.

Moreover, the guests who often patronized the restaurant couldn't help asking when they saw the diamond ring on her finger as she served them.

And she couldn't help blushing and giggling every time.

A few of the employees were laughing and discussing among themselves.

"Did you guys notice? Ever since Vera wore the diamond ring, she had become more and more beautiful. It's said that love can nourish a woman and make her more beautiful. I didn't believe it before, but I do now! Vera has been glowing recently."

"Oh, the diamond ring is so big and sparkly. I'm so jealous. Not only that, her boyfriend is a dreamboat. I heard he's the president of a company. She's so lucky!"

"Well, stop it. I'm jealous too. Call me the green-eyed monster."

"If you guys keep this up, I'll dock your wages."

When Vera came in, she heard them discussing her love life, so she deliberately deepened her voice and scolded them to scare them.

However, they had been working in the restaurant for a long time, so they knew Vera was easy-going, and she wouldn't actually dock their wages.
