Aware of his actions, Vera felt even more embarrassed. She could only lie in Quill's arms and close her eyes; she was too ashamed to face anyone. Quill was not wearing a life jacket, so his chest was broad. When she leaned on his chest, it was not only warm, but she could also hear his heartbeat. At first, Vera heard a rapid heartbeat.

She thought it was hers, so she mocked herself for being such a wuss.

But after a while, she found out the heartbeat didn't seem to belong to her. Who else could it belong to? Vera couldn't help but look up at Quill. He looked calm. He lowered his head just as she looked up; their eyes met.

Unknown emotions surged beneath those eyes; it was impossible to tell he was very emotional when he kissed her just now.

If it weren't for the fact that she was close enough to him, Vera really wouldn't have known...

On the surface, the man looked calm, but his heart was beating so fast.

It turned out that... she was not the only wuss.

Thinking of this, Vera suddenly bechappy. She smiled at Quill happily and poked his chest with her finger. "Your heart is beating so fast." Her tone was full of schadenfreude as if she was deliberately making fun of Quill.

Quill was quite thick-skinned, so he was not afraid of Vera's ridicule at all. Instead, he grabbed her hand and pressed it against his chest. In a low voice, Quill said, "Yeah, all because of you." Her small fair palm rested on where his heart would be. Vera could feel that his heartbeat was very lively, softly hitting her palm again and again.

It was a powerful force.

Vera blinked; her originally calm heartbeat now answered his. She had only wanted to ridicule him; who would've thought she would be teased in return. The heat on her cheeks that hadn't fully faded burned again.

In the end, she just laid in his arms without saying a word.

And on the other side? After Lauren was chased off the boat, she stood at the entrance, so angry that her face looked grim. Her hands were clenched into tight fists, and her nails dug into her flesh.

She was infuriated! Had she known that she would be chased off the boat, she would have held back. Now that she was driven out, she couldn't do anything! She didn't know how many days they would be spending on the island. Should she continue to wait there? By that time, her abusive husband would have cout from the police station, she would have to face a more terrible fate.

No, she could not await her fate like this. She had to do something.

The island was not very far away, but it still needed stto reach. Vera had laid in Quill's arms because she was bashful, but later, she grew sleepy the more the boat swayed, so she fell asleep in his arms.

She woke up just as they arrived at the destination.

Everyone took off their life jackets and got off the boat.

The island had a lovely environment. Before they boarded the ship, they were asked to change into a pair of specially provided shoes. There were also cameras installed on the island. They were prohibited to throw garbage randomly, nor could they take the shells at the beach away.

With such rules and regulations, the island could be kept in its original state.

As soon as they stepped foot on the island, Vera felt that the air she was breathing was different. There were many tourists, but everyone followed the rules and regulations.

Dimitri introduced the island.

"There is a villa area in the middle of this island. The number of reception every day is limited, so it has to be reserved in advance. The area outside is a public space; feel free to look around. There will be sactivities held at a fixed time. You can choose whether to participate or not." As Vera listened, she nodded and asked questions. Because there was still a lot of time, Dimitri took them on a car trip around the island.

"This car circles the island multiple times every day. You can get in the car after you pay. If you don't have any change, you can get a temporary card, and then you can use the card endlessly to get on and off the car." After circling the island and getting familiar with the environment, Dimitri led them to the villa in the middle. "Our company has arranged a sea view couple suite for the two of you this time. If there's anything you're unsatisfied with, Mrs. Hanover, you can call our staff to change your room at any time." Vera blinked; she thought of their luggage in the previous hotel. Now that they were here, what would happen to the things over there? Thus, Vera voiced out her doubts.

Dimitri explained with a smile, "Don't worry, Mrs. Hanover. The room in the hotel is specially prepared for you. The room will be yours until the trip ends. You can rest assured about that." Oh, that was good.

Vera nodded in satisfaction.

Then, when Dimitri did not notice, Vera quietly took Quill's hand and whispered, "Omm... This island, will there be extra rooms?" Upon hearing her words, Quill froze for a moment. After that, he lowered his head and stared at her. There was a faint smile on his lips. "Extra rooms?" "Yeah." Vera blinked and continued, "Hadn't you secretly got another room for yourself and didn't want to sleep withpreviously? So..." Quill stopped in his tracks.

"So? Didn't we sleep together on the second night?" Vera didn't answer.

She tilted her head and a strange emotion flashed across her eyes.

It seemed to be true.

"But..." Vera bit her lower lip, and her expression was a little conflictedn "We couldn't do anything at that time. If you could, you would get a room for yourself, wouldn't you?" With that, Vera began to let her imagination run wild again. Why was Quill unwilling to sleep in the same.

room as her? He wouldn't do anything to her even if they slept in the sroom, but...

While she was thinking, she suddenly felt a sharp pain on her forehead.

Vera cto her senses with a soft cry and looked at Quill with ssadness in her eyes.

"Why did you suddenly hit me?"

"Should I let you continue to let your imagination run wild then? Silly girl, yiyen? Yaman. If we stay you're a girl, and I'm a in the sroom, you'll be the one suffering losses." What? So that was how he saw it. He thought that she would be the one suffering losses; that was why he was unwilling to stay in the sroom with her?

"But I don't think so!" Vera shook her head and subconsciously held his hand tighter. "We are traveling as husband and wife. If others know we're staying in different rooms, will they..." Before she finished her words, Vera realized something was off. "Umm... Actually, what I mean is..." "You don't need to explain." Quill looked at her with a faint smile. "In the end, you just want to stay in the sroom as me. Just say it." RULE #1 choose married "It's not like that!" Vera denied it strongly. "I'm just worried that the staff will misunderstand. I don't think so..." "Okay." Quill pressed the back of her head and suddenly leaned closer to her. "Then I think so. It's all my idea. How about that?" They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
