Minerva's heart throbbed as she looked at Maddox without moving an inch.
She felt that he was deliberately testing her with this sentence.
She stared at him for a long while before she nervously pursed her pink lips together. "Um... Why did you think of this problem?" He breathed on her face and looked at her seriously.
"What about you? Why would you ask such a strange question?" Well, it seemed that he was asking her the question. She was really uncertain about whether he knew it or not. However, since he did not say it, the probability of him not knowing it should be higher. She shook her head. "Nothing, I just wanted to ask this suddenly." After that, she grabbed his hand tightly and said, "But to be honest, if you find something unacceptable to you one day, you must listen to my explanation, okay?" His gaze deepened as he looked at her. Her breathing beclabored when he looked into her eyes. In the end, his thin lips curled into a smile. "Okay." When Minerva saw that he had agreed, she let out a sigh of relief.
"Remember what you promised me." "Alright." While they were in the hospital, Geoffrey cto see Minerva with Lolita. When they cin, they were still chatting with each other. When Minerva saw this scene, she was a little surprised. She didn't expec that they would becso familiar with each other in such a short time.
It seemed that fate was really hard to stop when it came.
After inquiring about her physical condition, Lolita couldn't help but gossip with her.

I didn't expect that he would be like this because he was hurt in love." "Hurt in love?" Upon hearing this, Minerva was shocked.
She pondered Geoffrey's words and deeds carefully. However, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that he didn't look like a person who had been hurt in love.
"That's right. Didn't Mr. Sebastian carry you away that day? Then I went in. Geoffrey and that Monica...." Before Lolita could finish speaking, her mouth was suddenly covered by someone.
It turned out that Geoffrey had eavesdropped on their conversation. When he heard that this girl was gossiping about him, he quickly covered her mouth before she could speak. "What... What are you doing? Put it down..." Geoffrey covered Lolita's mouth and stopped her from speaking. He pulled her out and looked at Minerva with a smile. "Minerva, don't listen to her nonsense. This woman likes to gossip, and she likes to exaggerate things. Whatever she just said to you, you can't believe a word." Lolita struggled as she was being dragged by him, but her strength couldn't match his at all. In the end, she was so angry that she directly raised her foot and forcefully stepped on his foot. He immediately widened his eyes in pain; the pain was so great that he wanted to cry out, but he couldn't.
She quickly pushed him away. "If you don't allowto tell Minerva, then I won't tell her. Why did you drag me? Do you know that there's a difference between a man and a woman? Believe it or not, I will sue you for s*xual harassment." He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak.
Such a scene made the quiet ward full of vitality. Maddox, looking at the notebook, felt that it was noisy, and he subconsciously frowned and looked over.
His thin lips moved. He was just about to reprimand them for making noise here, but when he looked over, the first thing he saw was Minerva's smiling face.
She had been staying in the ward for two days. Although her face didn't look so bad, she didn't look lively at all. Now, after watching Lolita and Geoffrey, she looked much more energetic. Perhaps she liked this kind of atmosphere? When Maddox was thinking of this, the anger between his eyebrows faded away, and he looked at the laptop screen again.
Forget it. Since she liked it, they could do whatever they wanted.
Although it was a little noisy, she liked it, didn't she? It took Geoffrey and Lolita a long tto realize that there was not only Minerva in the ward, but also another powerful person. They stopped talking tacitly and looked at the place where Maddox was.
Oh, no, they were too excited just now. They completely forgot that there was such a scary person in the ward. They were so loud just now. Did they disturb him? While thinking, Maddox seemed to be able to find out what they were thinking. He looked up at them with cold eyes, which made their heart feel cold.
Lolita subconsciously moved and hid behind Geoffrey. She was petite, short and thin. Geoffrey was tall and strong, so hiding behind him could block Maddox's line of sight.
He was left alone, facing Maddox's gaze. A stiff smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
"Sebastian, we weren't speaking so loudly on purpose. We were just trying to make Minerva happy." After saying that, Geoffrey looked at her and tried hard to cast her a look of help.
She thought they were a pair of funny people, so she nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, I don't mind. He won't mind either. Don't worry." Maddox's heart stirred when he heard her words. His gaze unconsciously fell on her face.
At the stime, she also looked at him. Her clear eyes were like spring water, without a trace of impurities, and filled with only tenderness and sweetness.

Maddox's Adam apple moved up and down, and the look in his eyes m deepened. After a while, he looked away with difficulty and said coldly, "I don't mind, but you can go."
When Geoffrey heard that he didn't mind, his face lit up. However, it didn't last for half a second before it collapsed. As a man, how could he not see through Maddox's gaze and actions just now? Obviously, he couldn't control himself when he saw Minerva, so he was going to kick them out. Well, he just didn't want to follow his order.
Geoffrey looked at Minerva and said, "It's rare for us to chere. Isn't it a pity to leave now? Why don't we stay and have lunch together with you?" Have lunch? It would be really lively if so many people ate together.
She nodded. Just as she was about to agree, Maddox stood up and said coldly, "Do you want to move the restaurant over as well?" Geoffrey's smile froze. Lolita hid behind him and didn't even dare to breathe. The look in Maddox's eyes just now was too terrifying.
Maddox was already walking over.
Minerva tugged on the hem of his mpotto shirt, signaling him not to be som fierce. However, he grabbed her wrist and pinched it in his palm. "When the nanny comes to deliver the meal later, are you sure you want to stay and watch us eat?" Geoffrey didn't know how to respond.
He naturally could see through Maddox's thoughts. He only wanted to spend talone with Minerva. He didn't want them to stay here to disturb them.
He wanted to go against him, but on second thought, he decided to let it go. If he offended Maddox, would it affect him in the future? "Why don't we go out to eat?" Just then, Lolita tugged Geoffrey's clothes and whispered.
