A family who could have a close relationship with the Hanover family...
Vera sighed. No wonder when they met outside the elevator, Vera thought Yulia was someone with class. It turned out she used to be the daughter of a rich family.
"She worked in Hanover Corporation because she wasn't willing to accept help? You don't know about this?" Vera asked.
"Yeah." Quill nodded as he pursed his lips. Then, he looked at her and added, "If she hadn't fainted today, I wouldn't know she was in Hanover Corporation." After that, he didn't bring it up again but put his arm around her shoulder and said, "C'mon, let's send you back first." On their way out, Vera thought about Yulia for sreason. It must've been tough for a girl to shoulder everything until she couldn't any longer, after losing everything and not accepting any help from her friends. However, she could not bring herself to ask Quill to help her. After all, this was something between them. She felt that she had better not meddle in their affairs.
Yulia requested to be discharged after staying in the hospital for an afternoon.
Juliette stopped her and said, "Miss Maxwell, President Hanover toldto take good care of you here. Besides, you're still very weak. It's best if you stay in the hospital and rest." "No," Yulia shook her head and refused. "I know my body well. I was indeed feeling a bit uncomfortable in the morning, but I'm all right now. Secretary Sharpio, could you please helpwith the discharge formalities?" Juliette refused her firmly.

She did not expect Juliette to be so stubborn. Could it be that she really couldn't leave the hospital that day? Thinking of this, Yulia decided to leave on her own instead of trying to communicate with Juliette.
However, her movements were so sudden that her vision went dark as soon as she got off the bed, and she almost fell forward. Fortunately, Juliette was quick enough to hold her up. "Are you alright?" It took Yulia a long tto gradually regain her vision. There was a huge difference in her blood pressure, so she was always easily dizzy.
As a result, Juliette helped Yulia back to bed.
"Miss Maxwell, it's best if you stay in the hospital for now with your current condition. Your body is at its limit. What you need to do most now is to rest here," Juliette advised.
Yulia wished to leave. But with her current condition, she didn't know if she could hold on until she reached home.
Even if she managed to get home, she still might faint. By that time, no one would realize nor worry about her. Wouldn't that be even worse? She had to revive the Maxwell family. She couldn't die just like this.
At the thought of this, Yulia becdetermined. She did not mention leaving the hospital again. She pulled the blanket over herself weakly. "Okay. Thank you for your concern. I will have a good rest." She insisted on discharging from the hospital a moment ago. To Juliette's surprise, she changed her mind in an instant after realizing that her body could not take it anymore.
"She's quite resolute," Juliette thought.
"You should also eat something. I'm going out to buy dinner. Is there any food that you don't like?" Juliette asked.
Food that she did not like? In the past, Yulia had a long list; she was picky about everything. They were either not delicious, tasteless, or she simply did not like them.
But now? Did she have the right to pick? Thinking of this, Yulia smiled miserably. "There is nothing I can't eat. Anything will do. Thank you." "If that's the case, I will bring you what I eat." Just as Juliette was about to leave, the door of the ward opened, startling her.
"Vera?" Juliette stepped back and let Vera enter. "Why are you here?" When Vera entered, she happened to meet Yulia's eyes. Yulia was stunned when she saw her. Why did she come? "Umm, I thought the food in the hospital must be bland, so I brought you guys sfood." Vera motioned the lunchboxes in her hand. It's tfor dinner. You haven't eaten yet, have you?thope I am on time." Juliette said, "I was just about to buy sfood. I was even thinking about what to get for dinner. If you ca bit later, I might have left already." "Really?" Vera trod in with a smile and put the lunchboxes on the table. The aroma of the food wafted out as soon as she opened it.
"Wow! It smells so good! Vera, you're amazing 'm already drooling from the smelt. It must be delicious.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYou're such a talented girl. Being a married woman, my ability to cook is probably not as good as yours.
Vera opened the lunchboxes one by one as Juliette urged Yulia.
"Miss Maxwell, since Vera has brought us food, we don't have to go out anymore. Cand have sfood." Yulia sat still and looked at the scene, not knowing what to do.
She had never imagined Vera would bring her food, let alone so many, with enthusiasm.
While she was still in a daze, Juliette had already eaten a piece of meat and praised, "It's so delicious, Vera. When are you marrying President Hanover? He would be blessed to marry a wife like you." Vera's face turned red because of her words.
"Secretary Sharpio!" "Hehe, you are so bashful. It's just
the three of us here. President Hanover isn't around; why are you shy? C'mon, tellhow far have you taken your relationship with President Hanover? Miss Maxwell and President Hanover know each other. I'm sure she wants to know too." At that, Juliette glanced at Yulia.
Yulia was still absent-minded, and it took her a long tto suppress the bitterness in her heart Then shen lifted the blanket and slowly got out of bed, pacing toward them like an emotionless robot. "Yeah, I am curious too." She beamed, picked up the cutleries, and ate with them.
Juliette couldn't help but glimpse at her again. Seeing that Yulia was fine, she was bewildered. Was she wrong? Were Yolia and President Hanover really just friends? Was there nothing else? "See, she's curious too. We all want to know. C'mon, Vera, tell us about it." Juliette wanted to see more of Yulia's reaction, so she asked again, "Tell me, how far have you guys gone? Hold hands, kissing?" Vera remained silent.
Her heart raced as she gazed at Juliette in disbelief. She did not expect her to be so gossipy and cared so much about her love life. "Secretary Sharpie, you..." "Or, could it be that you two have already done that?" Gobsmacked, Vera shouted. "Secretary Sharpie!" Juliette grinned and pinched her face. "What's there to be shy about? We're all women. Miss Maxwell, am I right?" X
