When Vera and Quill entered the ward, what came to view was Yulia's bandaged head with traces of blood seeping through the white gauze, dispirited. She looked vulnerable and in need of care as the loose blue hospital gown wrapped around her petite body, revealing her collarbones.

Hearing footsteps, she raised her head and looked at the door.

Vera saw the changes in her gaze clearly.

Her eyes were full of expectation in the beginning, and they grew brighter when she saw Quill, but then as soon as her gaze fell on Vera, the light disappeared.

It all happened in a matter of moments. If Vera hadn't been staring at Yulia since she entered the ward, she probably wouldn't have noticed it.

Vera didn't know how to describe her mood. When she visited Yulia in her previous admission, she had taken care of Yulia like a friend and even brought her food. But now, her feelings for Yulia had become inexplicable.

Vera glanced around the room. Apart from Yulia, some people from the company were present, and to her surprise, Juliette as well.

She had to come forward too?

It appeared that their family's relationship still held importance to Quill. Otherwise, he would not have asked someone as important as Juliette to intervene.

Vera didn't like it, but she didn't let it show. She only stayed next to Quill quietly the entire time.

Quill took a glance at Yulia, who was on the hospital bed before he turned to Juliette and asked, "What happened?"

Feeling helpless, Juliette explained, "There was an argument, and Miss Maxwell went over to persuade them. But the quarrel was fierce, so they accidentally shoved Miss Maxwell, and she hit her head." If it hadn't been for the blood, they would likely not have stopped.

After that, they rushed her to the hospital, worried that they would be held accountable if anything happened to her.

Hearing Juliette's explanation, Quill's gaze turned cold, and he turned to look at the senior managers.
