That incident last twas indeed an accident.
But it seemed that Maddox had always kept it in mind. This particular case of Minerva's was really a case of one making a terrible mistake and having to regret it eternally.
Since it was an accident, it was definitely not a hint. At that time, the two of them hadn't gotten together. How could she give such a hint? However, it was obvious that Maddox didn't think so. He leaned over her neck, his thin lips touching her fair and tender neck suggestively. The hot breath he exhaled was like a catkin scratching her neck. The hand gripping her waist suddenly moved up by half an inch. Following that, Minerva also felt Maddox's breathing quicken.
Minerva blinked her eyes nervously and opened her lips unconsciously. "No, You can't..." However, what she got in return was Maddox's lips, which covered down on hers.
Clang! "Mr. Sebastian, I forgot to tell you, about..." Just as Minerva was indulging in his kiss, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open. Linda walked in while talking, and she witnessed a shocking scene.
Linda widened her eyes in disbelief.
What had she seen? That president who had always avoided contacting with women... was kissing a woman?! Minerva's expression changed drastically when she heard Linda's voice. She shoved Maddox with her hand instinctively. She staggered backwards a few steps before she managed to steady herself. Maddox was pushed away and a look of dissatisfaction appeared in his dark eyes. He frowned and looked at the person who barged in without knocking. Other than the coldness on his face, he did not look awkward at all. Instead, he asked, "Why didn't you knock?" Linda was awkward.
She was shocked for a few seconds, apologized, and then went out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMinerva stood aside and felt very ashamed. She didn't plan on letting others know, but she didn't expect Linda to see this scene. Actually, it was normal for a couple to kiss each other, but if they were seen by familiar people, it would be very embarrassing.
She bit her lower lip and crossed her hands together. How would she face Linda in the future? While she was still thinking about it, Maddox said to her.
"Chere." Minerva was silent.
Maddox's expression did not change. "Continue." Without thinking twice, she answered, "Linda has seen it. Are you still in the mood?" Seeing that she was still rooted to the spot, Maddox simply pursed his thin lips and walked over. He pinched her chin and leaned over to kiss her. The scorching heat instantly enveloped Minerva.
She blinked her eyes nervously and looked at Maddox who was so close that even the pores on his skin could be seen clearly. She was really not in the mood to continue after they were interrupted by Linda. Therefore, just as Maddox was about to pry open her teeth, Minerva pushed him away.
"It's office hours now," Minerva said.
Maddox was pushed away and he looked at her quietly.
Minerva took two steps back. "You toldbefore that I'm not allowed to seduce you during working hours. Then... you can't do this right now. I'm leaving!" After that, she didn't care about Maddox's reaction and walked out of the room.
Outside the office, Minerva felt a chill on her face, and she hurried into the bathroom next to her.
Then, Minerva saw in the mirror in the washroom that her whole face was red. The most terrible thing was that... there was a very obvious red mark on her neck. Minerva stretched out her hand and rubbed it, but the mark did not disappear.
She was about to go crazy.
He clearly knew that she was not wearing a high-collar dress today, but he still left a mark on her neck.
She didn't have any liquid foundation or anything to cover the mark. In the end, she could only let her hair down on her shoulders, just managing to cover the red mark.
After she had tidied herself, Minerva walked back to the secretary's office.
In the secretary's office, Linda was making a phone call. When Minerva entered the office, she did not even look at her. Minerva rejoiced in her heart and rushed back to her seat, opening her bag to look for something to cover the red mark.
As soon as she took out the concealer, Linda hung up the phone. Then she got up and walked over to Minerva with a stack of documents.
Seeing this, Minerva could only put away her concealer. Then, like a student meeting a teacher, she straightened her back and sat there looking at Linda with a very well-behaved expression. "Minerva!" Linda called out to her. Minerva did not know if it was her illusion or not, but she felt as if there was a deeper meaning behind her call, as if she had increased her tone.
She straightened her back and looked at Linda with a stiff smile. Her ears were slightly red.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Linda, what can I do for you?" Linda smiled as she took a document and placed it in front of her. "Take this downstairs and tell them that this needs to be done in the afternoon. Tell them to speed up their progress. If they can't make it in time, they will not get the monthly bonus." Minerva nodded her head. "Got it." Linda gave faint smile. She placed the document away and turned to leave. Minerva heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that Linda was not the type of person who liked gossiping. She did not need to bother explaining...
However, before she was really relaxed, Linda suddenly turned around and stared at her.
"Minerva, you and Mr. Sebastian..." Once again, Minerva straightened her back and looked nervously at Linda.
Linda couldn't help but laugh when she saw her like this. She said, "Don't be so nervous. I can understand young people." Minerva was awkward. She did not know how to continue on.
"I really didn't expect both of you to fall in love so fast." Linda sat down beside her and said with a smile, "Can I share sgossip with you? En Before you chere, the president was always dismissive of women. How could you make a conquest of him so quickly? Besides..." Although she had accidentally seen the scene in the office just now, she could tell that it was obviously Maddox who had taken the initiative between them.
This was what made Linda feel strange. The fact that Maddox had taken the initiative frightened her, as well as the fact he was not afraid of being found out. Minerva, on the other hand, was panic-stricken. She seemed to be afraid of being discovered by others. Linda suddenly thought of Master Collins's visit to the company. She suddenly widened her eyes and said, "Master Collins cto the company, did he..."
Since she had already been found out, Minerva couldn't continue denying it. She could only nodhen head and say, "Yes, his grandfather chere for this matter. Linda, I don't want anyone else in the company to know about it. Can you promise me?" When Linda listened to her words, she couldn't help but reach out her hand and touch her forehead. "Hey, I'm not the kind of person who talks nonsense. Although I just want to know something, but I'm not a big mouth. I'm just curious about how you managed to take down Mr. Sebastian, falling in love so soor Minerva smiled but did not say anything.
She and Maddox had known each other for a long time. This time, it was fate that brought them together. What could she say? X
