When Minerva cout, Maddox was still waiting by the door.
She walked to her bed, frowning. She then saw the phone on the table and picked it up. After a glance, she found that someone had cracked the password of her phone. She turned around to look at her suspect. 'Are you the one who did this?" Maddox clearly knew about it but didn't plan to answer her. He went to her and took her phone. "Are you hungry? Breakfast is ready. You..." "Maddox! Did you peek at my phone? And you cracked my password as well? Do you know that it's immoral to do that? Why did you do that? I can sue you!" Minerva pushed him away forcefully and snatched her phone over. Then, she took a few steps back and pressed her back against the wall while venting her anger on Maddox.
"Sue me?" Maddox frowned when he saw her behaving in such a manner. After a while, he laughed mockingly. "I watched over you for a whole night, yet this is what I get in return? Woman, are you that ruthless?" Minerva fell silent and glared at him.
Maddox chuckled. "If I don't crack the password of your phone, how am I supposed to send a message to Vera to send you something to eat? Or do you think ofas the kind of person who only wants to spy on the secrets in your phone? I am not such a jerk." Minerva made no reply, but deep down, she was touched by his act.
She was mad at him for cracking her phone's password. She jumped to a conclusion without careful consideration. After listening to Maddox's words, she felt as if she was being unreasonable.
However... she wasn't in the wrong either. Maddox was already married, but he had spent a night with her in the ward.
Even if he was not bothered about it, Minerva could not accept it.
Thinking of this, she did not speak further and called Vera right away.

Vera sensed a hint of coldness in her voice and immediately nodded without further questions. "Okay, I'll be there soon." After hanging up the phone, Minerva walked out of the ward, bypassing Maddox. She thought that she would handle the discharge papers on her own before Vera's arrival.
Never did she expect Maddox to catch up with her as soon as she got to the door. He frowned, "What are you doing?" Minerva continued pacing forward without answering him.
"Ha," Maddox laughed callously. He continued, "Even if you are in such a hurry to leave, shouldn't you put on your shoes before leaving?" Hearing his words, Minerva paused. She lowered her head and realized that she wasn't wearing shoes. At this moment, she was standing barefoot on the floor.
When she was in a daze, she had been swept off her feet by Maddox. He held her in his arms and walked back. Minerva was stunned for a moment and reacted at once, "Letgo!" Maddox had on a poker face. He carried her to the bed and put her down. Then, he brought her shoes in front of her.
"Wear them." Minerva bit her lip and looked up at him with hatred in her eyes. This b*stard was really annoying. Search the Find_Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Although she was glaring at him, her gaze sent both love and hate down Maddox's heart.
He could not hold it in any longer. He wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pressed her against the bed. "Why are you looking atin such a way? Didn't anyone tell you that a man would go crazy just for your gaze?" He did not kiss her, but he was extremely close to her; she could even feel his breath. It did not cause Minerva to blush, but she felt even more humiliated.
Minerva closed her eyes, her lips trembling slightly.
"Maddox Yardley." Her voice was a little shaky and her eyelashes fluttered as she spoke.
"You have succeeded if you're trying to humiliate me." Maddox was stunned. Humiliate her? "What do you mean?" His hand held her chin and asked coldly.
Minerva opened her eyes and shot him an indifferent stare.
"You know it clearly deep down inside." A deadly silence fell on the ward. Maddox noticed the obvious disgust beneath her eyes.
That's right.
It's disgust.
She was disgusted by him.
It was not hatred, but disgust.
This recognition freaked Maddox out a little.
Why? Did she loathe him for everything he had done in the past few days? From the moment Maddox saw her, he subconsciously wanted to get closer to her. He had merely followed his heart and acted accordingly to his feelings, but did he do anything wrong? Maddox pursed his lips, "Make it clear." "I want to terminate the contract." Compared to his frustration, Minerva sounded exceptionally calm. "Is that clear enough for you now?" When Maddox was in a daze, Minerva pushed him away, letting him lie on the bed. Then, she got up and left the ward after wearing her shoes.

She went to handle the discharge papers, paying no attention to the doctor's words. After that, she did not go back to the ward. Instead, she sat quietly on the chair in the corridor, waiting for Vera. Vera didn't let her down. She said that she would be here soon, and she did. When Vera saw her sitting on a chair at the corridor, she asked in confusion, "Minerva, why are you here? Shouldn't you be in the ward?" Minerva stood up and took the bag from her hand, glancing at it. Sure enough, it was a set of clothes. She turned around and walked towards the ward.
Vera followed her into the ward.
The ward was empty; there was no sign of Maddox around.
"Where is Maddox?" After Vera entered the room, she asked in surprise.
"He's gone," replied Minerva. She then went to the bathroom to change her clothes.
When she cout, Vera had already laid out all the food. As she had taken care of Minerva previously, she naturally knew what Minerva should eat when she had gastric problems. "Cover and have breakfast." Vera called out to her. Minerva walked over and sat down. When she saw the food on the table, for sreason, she didn't feel like eating.
But she had to eat after all. Hence, she reached for the plate and picked up the cutleries.
"The ones at this side are all mine; you can't eat them," Vera placed her food in front of her. Minerva only glanced at it and saw that it was all fried. She was rendered speechless for a while before saying, "You did it on purpose, didn't you? Every tI have gastric, I can only eat bland food. Why are you deliberately enjoying them before me?" Vera looked a little proud. She took a piece of fried chicken and put it into her mouth. When she was eating, she intentionally chewed loudly. "Wow, it smells so good and delicious. This restaurant is newly opened; it seems that I have to go there more often in future." Minerva was speechless.
"Are you envious? You are a pitiful woman who often suffers from gastric problems. Now, do you know how miserable you are? Will you still neglect your meals for a whole day to draw? You can't help drawing when you have sudden inspirations, can you? Do you think you can recover every time? Huh?"
