Just as she was deep in thought, someone suddenly squeezed to Vera's side and looked at her.
"Vera, you've realized it now, haven't you?"
Lauren?
Vera looked at Lauren in surprise, narrowing her eyes in danger.
"This woman is really shameless. After all that I've said in the afternoon, she still came up to me? Is she planning to take another good scolding?"
Thinking of this, Vera sneered and did not answer.
"Your husband is so charming that a little girl like you won't be able to handle him."
Hearing her words, Vera glanced at her lazily, and there was a bit of mockery in her tone.
"So you're saying, only an unfaithful married woman like you can?"
Lauren had mentally prepared herself for Vera's attacks, but she didn't expect to be angered. However, she suppressed it quickly and looked at Vera with a smile, saying, "I didn't say that. After all, most women who asked you about your husband are married too."
She was diverting the topic?
Vera smiled coldly. Did Lauren really think she was a fool?
"They're just asking out of curiosity. It's different from your nasty schemes."
Lauren was speechless.
It seemed that she had underestimated Vera!
"Didn't I tell you to behave yourself? It seems that you haven't given up yet." Vera warned.
Seeing the look in Vera's eyes, Lauren was shocked. She explained, "Vera, I don't mean it that way. I'm just telling you I'm the same as them; I'm just curious. I don't have that kind of evil intention. I've already come to apologize to you so sincerely. Are you still unwilling to believe me?"
Believe her?
Vera looked at the woman in front of her. She deliberately pretended to be very sincere when she spoke, but the pride and irony in her eyes could not be concealed. Vera pursed her lips. "Honestly, if the same thing happened that day, I would still choose to save you. However, I probably won't bring you back to the hotel but hand you over to the police directly."
Upon hearing the word police, Lauren shuddered subconsciously.
"Likewise, I didn't hand you over to the police before. But if I have to do now, I would do it. Do you understand me?"
After saying that, Vera took out her phone and waved it in front of Lauren, who looked terrible.
Seeing the blood on Lauren's lips fade away, Vera said with a faint smile, "Of course, if I hand you to the police, I'll still have to make an effort to call them, but now I just want to have fun. But if you upset me in any way, I will do the same to you."
"Vera, I..."
"If you don't believe me, feel free to try." After saying that, Vera took a glass of juice and walked away, ignoring her.
Lauren stood on the spot and clenched her fists in anger.
Vera felt a little tired halfway through the party, so she planned to go back and rest. She found Quill and told him her thoughts.
"Since you're tired, then let's head back."
For Quill, he wouldn't attend this kind of party even normally. Just like at this moment when Vera was attending the party, he watched her have fun from a distance and sipped on some alcohol, not participating.
Soon, she came back as she was tired.
Naturally, Quill took Vera back to the hotel.
When they were approaching the hotel, Quill suddenly felt something was wrong with his body. He frowned slightly and glanced at Vera, who was next to him.
Looking at how innocent Vera was, Quill sighed in her heart. He helplessly tousled her hair and said,
"I'm going to buy something, I'll be back soon."
"Oh, okay." Vera nodded without any doubt and said, "Then I'll go take a shower first and wait for you to come back. Don't take too long."
"Okay."
Before leaving, Vera turned back around and hugged Quill as if she was reluctant. It was fine if she didn't hug him, but now that she did, she felt something amiss. She looked at him doubtfully.
"Are you feeling warm?"
Quill didn't answer her.
There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. Once the drug took effect, almost immediately, the heat reached his entire body.
"A little."
"What's the matter? Are you unwell?" Vera said as she stretched out her hand, attempting to touch Quill's forehead. As soon as her fingertip touched him, Quill clasped her wrist.
Vera looked at him in confusion.
"Don't." he scolded in a hoarse voice. "I'll be back after I get some fresh air."
Vera came to her senses and said discontentedly, "How can you sweat for no reason? Are you having a fever? If you do, the wind will worsen your condition. You'd better go back to the room.
Let me check with the front desk and see if they have any medicine."
After that, Vera pulled him in the direction of their room.
