Chapter 731


    Vera, of course, followed him with a smile.


    The ward was terrifyingly quiet. On the bedid a man whose whole body was wrapped up. Even


    his face was covered with gauze. Only two eyes were left exposed.


    No one could recognize who he was.


    Quill stood in front of the hospital bed and stared at him for a while. He turned around helplessly,


    looked at Vera who was behind him and said coldly, "Go and call Jerry in."


    "What''s wrong?"


    She felt that something was wrong. "Didn''t the doctor say not to let too many peoplee in?"


    He pursed his lips and was very dissatisfied.


    "I''m here to confirm his identity. He''s so wrapped up; how can you be sure that he is Maddox?" He


    pointed at the patient on the hospital bed and said coldly.


    Vera blinked her eyes and replied, "Didn''t he say that his whole body was injured? Even if it was


    wrapped into a mummy, it''s very normal."


    Quill stared at her. "Are you trying to go against me?"


    "No, I wouldn''t dare. I''ll call him in right away."


    Thus, she went out to call Jerry over.


    After listening to her exnation, Jerry scratched his head with a pained expression. After a while,


    he said, "Why don''t I get a doctor to remove all the gauze on his body?"


    Hearing this, she couldn''t help but widen her eyes.


    "Are you crazy? It''s not easy for the doctor to wrap the gauze and you want to ask him to remove all


    the gauze. Either you or the doctor is crazy. Otherwise, how would the doctor agree to such an


    unreasonable request?"


    Quill initially thought that Jerry''s idea was not bad...


    Was he crazy?


    Was it because Quill was also a man, thus he did not have the kind ofpassion for the person?


    He felt that it was not a big deal to remove the gauze.


    "But if you don''t remove the gauze, there''s no way to tell who he is. But..."


    Jerry was a little hesitant.


    "But what?" Quill''s eyes swept over him.


    Jerry hesitated for a moment before answering, "Even if the gauze is removed, you may not be able


    to recognize him because his entire body including his face was covered with wounds. Your heart


    may not bear the pain."


    Vera was speechless.


    Quill''s frown deepened.


    It seemed that he was really seriously injured. In this case, they could not remove the gauze


    casually. If there was an infection, what were they going to do if this cost him his life?


    Then, what should he tell this to his sister?


    Thinking of this, Quill could only open his mouth again. "How long before the gauze can be


    removed?"


    "It will probably take a few days."


    "Okay, I understand. You can go out first."


    Jerry nodded his head, then turned around and went out.


    After he left, Quill''s gaze fell on Vera''s face. "We are still not certain yet. When we go back, don''t


    talk nonsense in front of Minerva."


    She nodded quickly. "Don''t worry. Even if you don''t warn me, I know what to say and what not to


    say. Since Mr. Yardley is in such a horrible state, it''s better not to let Minerva know that we have


    found him."


    "Since you are aware then I don''t need to remind you yet again."


    She pouted unhappily and said, "I''m not a fool. How can I not know these things?"


    "What did you say?"


    She said it very softly just now, thus Quill did not hear it clearly.


    She shook her head. "Nothing."


    After that, she lowered her head in frustration.


    It seemed that she became more timid in front of him after being refused by Quill.


    It seemed like he was bing colder towards her.


    She was so depressed. She felt that all her efforts these days had been in vain. They still seemed to


    be so distant.


    Instead, it seemed like they were growing further apart.

    While thinking, Vera raised her head and looked at the person on the hospital bed.


    Was it really that serious? She nced from head to toe and she noticed that even though he was


    completely wrapped in gauze, his face seemed familiar.


    Vera was shocked and she looked at the man in disbelief.


    Why did he lookpletely different from Young Master Yardley?


    Usually, when she saw Maddox, she was like a mouse seeing a cat. It was not because she was too


    timid, but because his aura was too strong and powerful.


    However, the person lying on the hospital bed did not give Vera such a feeling. Was it because he


    had bandages wrapped around his body? The bandages had concealed his aura?


    While she was deep in her thoughts, she heard a cold voice echoing from the side, "Let''s go."


    "What?" Vera turned around and saw that Quill had already walked to the door. She was taken


    aback for a moment. "Are we leaving?"


    "Do you still want to stay?"


    She shook her head. Why would she stay? Now that he was so badly injured and he was


    completely covered in gauze, she couldn''t do anything even if she stayed.


    When she walked to the door of the ward, she couldn''t help but take another nce at the man in


    the hospital bed again, and she reached out her hand to hold her chin.


    "It''s so strange. Why do I feel that this person gives me a very familiar feeling? But it''spletely


    different from the feeling of Maddox..."


    It felt so familiar.


    "Why are you in a daze? Let''s go."


    Quill''s urging voice echoed from not far away. Vera came back to her senses and quickly caught up


    with him. Then, she continued to walk behind him.


    After walking for a while, she couldn''t help but ask, "By the way, I have a question for you."


    Quill, who was walking in front directly asked, "What is it?"


    Recalling the figure just now, she felt strange, thus she told him about what she was thinking and he


    frowned upon hearing her thoughts.


    "Well, I''m not trying to imply anything here, it''s just my intuition. After all, this person is wrapped in


    gauze, so I can''t recognize him, so..."


    Quill suddenly paused. Vera didn''t see him stop because she was thinking, hence she mmed into


    his back once again.


    Her nose and forehead were aching. She covered her nose and looked up at the people in front of


    her helplessly.


    "Why did you stop again?"


    Couldn''t he walk properly? Why must he stop suddenly, causing her to bump into him again?


    He turned around and his deep eyes fell on her face. "Must you walk behind me?"


    "What?"


    "Walk in front of me." He didn''t sound furious butmanding. She was obedient and walked in


    front of him.


    The two of them continued to walk towards the car but this time, Vera walked in front. Quill quickly


    caught up with her and asked, "What did you mean?"


    Vera was dumbfounded


    She thought that he didn''t care about what she said just now.


    "I don''t mean anything else. I just have a strange feeling."


    "Are you trying to say that that person isn''t Maddox?"


    Her eyes widened. She stopped and shook her head hard.


    "I, I didn''t say that."


    Vera did not dare to talk nonsense. It was just her intuition.
