"What on earth is going on?" Vera blinked at her. "Too many things have happened recently. I can't digest it. What's going on between you and Mr. Hanover?"

"Vera, can you stop gossiping?" Kimberly looked at her helplessly and put down the cutlery in her hand. "In short, we are not in the relationship that you think. As for what our relationship is... I haven't thought about it yet."

She hadn't figured out whether or not she should admit their familial kinship.

Vera said, "Humph, you're so stingy. You don't even want to tell me."

As they were talking, there came the sound of the doorbell.

Vera immediately jumped up and said, "I'll go get it!"

After listening to Loraine's words, Vera understood that the person who rang the doorbell was Quill.

The fire of gossip was burning in her heart. When the door opened, Vera saw Quill standing behind the door.

Quill wore a dark suit and looked icy. He didn't seem to be lacking in temperament at all.

Tsk, Vera really felt that Kimberly was one hell of a lucky girl. Although she divorced Maddox, there was still Benedict who kept courting her. Furthermore, there was also Quill, who had an excellent temperament, on her side.

"It doesn't seem to be a bad choice to choose any one of them," Vera thought.

Seeing Vera, Quill paused for a moment. After a while, his eyes passed Vera and went straight into the house.

Vera smiled and asked, "Mr. Hanover?"

Quill nodded and pursed his thin lips.

Vera leaned to one side and chuckled, "Kimberly's over there."

Quill frowned slightly and walked in. He couldn't help but glance at Vera and found that this girl actually had a hippie look. Additionally, the way she looked at him seemed to have bad intentions. Was she misunderstanding something?

Thinking of this, Quill frowned even more.

In fact, after Vera went to answer the door, Kimberly became inexplicably nervous. To be honest, she really didn't want to see Quill now. She wanted to clear her own thoughts for a while more. Therefore, when Quill walked towards her, Kimberly almost subconsciously stood up.

"You..." She said.

"How's it going?" Quill asked.

Quill naturally put the briefcase aside and looked at her. His tone was full of concern as an elder brother. After asking, he saw the breakfast on the table had been eaten.

Quill couldn't help but smile. "It seems you have a good appetite. You should be fine," he thought.

Her mood had probably adjusted as well.

Unexpectedly, his sister's character was very similar to their mother's.

Kimberly wanted to say something, but after hearing what he said, she had to swallow the words.

After glancing at the mess on the table, she couldn't help but look at Vera, who was walking over. "Oh, our refined image is gone," she thought.

"Don't worry, Mr. Hanover. Kimberly has a good appetite, and even if she doesn't eat, I will force her to," Vera said.

Hearing what she said, Quill smiled at her kindly and replied, "Thanks for your help."

"It's okay." Vera waved her hand. "We're friends. I should take care of her..." Her last words dragged on for a long time. Actually, Vera wanted to test Quill, but Quill didn't seem to understand her meaning. He raised his hand and looked at the time.

"That's great. I have a meeting later. I'll leave in 10 minutes," he said.

After saying that, he sat down. Kimberly saw that it was too messy on the table, so she hit Vera's arm and motioned her to clean up with her.

The two of them quickly tidied up the table. Then, Kimberly looked at Quill and asked,

"Have you had breakfast? Or..."

Quill looked at her tenderly. "It's okay. I'm not hungry."

He did want to come over and have breakfast with her, but the most important thing was to monitor her eating her breakfast. Since she had already eaten, it didn't really matter even if he hadn't eaten.

Vera felt curious and a little embarrassed. "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't expect you to come. If I had known that, I would have waited for you."

In fact, she knew, but she... she couldn't imagine that the president of Hanover Corporation would come to the hotel and have breakfast with them. It was unbelievable.

Vera didn't consider this. So... they finished all the food. She was even worried that they would waste the food, so she had eaten a lot and felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach now.

"It doesn't matter. I'll leave soon," Quill said.

"Mr. Hanover, please have some water." Vera probably knew she had eaten too much, so she quickly went to get Quill a glass of water.

Later, she probably felt it was too shabby to give him just water, so she turned around and said with a smile, "I came here in the morning and found there seems to be a new restaurant nearby. If you don't mind I'll go there and bring you some food and a coffee?"

Quill was stunned at first, but after a while, he looked at Kimberly and nodded. "Thank you."

"I'll go right away, I promise it will be quick!" Vera said.

Bang! The door shut behind her. Vera had a quick temperament. She did things impulsively.

After she walked out, only Kimberly and Quill were left in the hotel room.

Although they were family, Kimberly was still very embarrassed. She really didn't want to be alone with Quill in a room.

After a moment of silence, Quill suddenly said, "I'll deal with Sylvia."

Hearing his words, Kimberly looked up and couldn't help asking, "What will you do? Did you really confirm my identity? I mean... with Sylvia's case, I think... Mr. Hanover, you'd better be cautious this time, or else..."

"No." Quill interrupted her with a calm look and the look in his eyes was hard. "This time, I won't get it wrong."

Kimberly bit her lower lip and stared at her finger.

"Are you afraid?" Quill asked.

She did not answer but lowered her head even more.

How could she not be afraid? She was suddenly told that her parents, who had been with her for so many years, were not her relatives. She suddenly became someone no one wanted. Although now the Hanover family said they were her family... Sylvia's case made her afraid. Could it be that one day when she accepted and took on this kinship, the Hanover family would come out again and say they had found the wrong person...?

In the end, who was she? Who could she be? Quill looked at the back of her head for a long while and sighed helplessly.

"There was a question I didn't want to ask, but if you are so worried, I have to ask it," he said.

Upon hearing this, Kimberly raised her head and looked at him blankly. "What is it?"

Quill's eyes were shining. By right, he really didn't want to ask such a question.

After all, Kimberly was an adult now.
