Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 1416

Vera wouldn't categorize her feelings toward Yulia as hatred.

But she had indeed coveted her man. That alone was enough reason for Vera to dislike her. Moreover, the things Yulia said to her were full of implications despite them being obscure. However, Vera finally realized what she meant after learning of her identity.

And she really did believe it at that time.

However, Vera had always been rational. Since Yulia did not cause any substantial harm to her, nor had she caused any trouble between her and Quill, she didn't hate Yulia.

Now, reading her message, Vera contemplated before finally replying to her.

"Yes?"

Yulia thought Vera would ignore her. However, seeing that she replied, she felt a little conflicted.

"I'd like to have a chat with you. Can we meet up?"

Meet up?

Vera couldn't help narrowing her eyes, reading the message. Why would she ask her out for no reason?

"What are you up to?"

"You two are already getting married. What more can I do? I just want to talk to you. Are you willing to lend me your ears?"

"Talk? If it's about Quill, then I'm not interested."

Vera didn't beat around the bush, and Yulia had expected her to reject as well, but she could only reply with a bitter smile.

"I knew you'd refuse, but I'd still like to have a chat with you. You can take it as a way to convince me to give up. How about that?"

Vera got busy while Yulia sent her last text. By the time Vera read it, she could almost see Yulia's pain through the phone. Somehow, probably because her love was unrequited when she first started pursuing Quill, she had a sense of empathy seeing how Yulia was.

After giving it some thought, Vera replied to her.

"Alright. Where are we going to meet?"

In the end, Yulia and Vera met at a cafe.

Because Vera was pregnant, she had to abstain from caffeine, so she got a glass of juice instead. Yulia stared at the glass of juice for a long time with a hint of self-mockery in her eyes.

She lowered her head and sighed, "I'm so jealous of you."

Vera paused what she was doing for some time before she rested her hands on her leg. Looking at Yulia's benevolent gaze, she said, "What is there about me for you to be jealous of? The fact that Quill and I are together?"

Yulia did not answer but only pursed her lips, and the gloom in her eyes grew deeper.

"Actually, you don't have to be envious of me. On the contrary, I envy you."

Hearing that, Yulia raised her head to look at Vera in surprise. "What did you say? You... you're envious of me?"

"Yeah." Vera smiled, and her gaze was full of admiration for Yulia. "When I first met you, I didn't know about your feelings for Quill, but I learned from others that you are excellent. You know so much; you're well-educated and have the ability to manage a company. Moreover, you are beautiful, so isn't it normal for me to envy you?"

Yulia never thought there would be a day she would hear Vera say so.

In actuality, a woman's recognition of another woman was much more valuable.

Moreover, this woman was not just anyone but her rival in love.

Yulia didn't know what to make of her feelings.

While she was deep in thought, someone came into her view. Yulia raised her head in surprise. "Didn't you go to clean up? How are you already..."

Yulia halted, as the person in front of her wasn't Vera but Jasper, who said he wanted to help her that night.

He was wearing a flashy red suit that day. He sat down opposite her with all smiles, looking like he was in a good mood.

Yulia narrowed her eyes in confusion. "Why are you here?"

Hearing that, Jasper flashed a mysterious smile and raised his eyebrows. "What do you think?"

There was a hint of malice in his eyes. Realizing it, a sense of foreboding flashed across Yulia's mind.

"Why are you giving me that look?"

Jasper suddenly grabbed her hand and said in a low voice, "Yulia, I told you before, I will help you."

Seeing that her guess was right, Yulia stared at him, wide- eyed with disbelief. "That waiter was your doing?"

"Yeah, her acting is good. I should give her a bonus later."
