That night, after Quill came out from the shower, he heard a ping on his phone. Someone had sent him a message.

He checked the message after putting on his bathrobe.

"President Hanover, I've sent Vera's whereabouts these past two days to your email."

Putting down his phone, Quill opened his laptop and checked the email.

The day before, Vera had been in the pasta restaurant the entire day, and she also went grocery shopping before going home.

Everything appeared normal, nothing out of the ordinary.

It was the same that day; she had been in the pasta restaurant the entire day. The only thing different was that she went to a cafe in the afternoon, and the person she rendezvoused with was... Seeing Yulia's name, Quill immediately narrowed his eyes.

Vera clearly looked traumatized the moment he went into her bedroom that evening. Although she told him she had a nightmare, there was no way Quill would believe a simple nightmare could scare her like that.

Hence, he assumed something must've happened during the day. He just didn't follow up immediately because he didn't want her to recall the trauma. Later, he successfully distracted her and helped her forge whatever scared her.

However, Quill thought it was of importance that he took it seriously.

After all, it was essential that he looked after her wellbeing.

Yulia, was it?

Quill tapped his index finger on the table as his face grew grim.

What on earth was Yulia trying to do to Vera?

The next day.

Yulia couldn't stop worrying as Jasper's words and the washroom incident filled her mind.

There was no way Vera wouldn't be suspicious of what happened to her in the washroom. After all, it did happen, and anybody with a brain could tell it was deliberately done. Moreover, she appeared before Vera at that moment.

Yulia closed her eyes and took a deep breath. In all honesty, she didn't think too much at that time.
