Downstairs.
Maddox was enjoying his meal slowly. His movements were elegant and charming. At first glance, one could tell that he was a nobleman who had received a good education. There was a faint smile on his lips when he was eating. He was satisfied when he thought of how Minerva was eating the vitamins at that moment.
Minerva let her guard down and was no longer thinking about the contraceptive pill. If she continued eating the vitamins, she would be pregnant with his child soon.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHumph, so what if she had a child with her ex-husband? He would make sure that all of her remaining children were his.
As Maddox imagined how his own children would call him dad in the future, the smile on his face deepened. He wanted to own Minerva for the rest of her life.
In the afternoon, Maddox suggested taking her to the supermarket. At first, Minerva refused but after recalling that she had been lying on the bed for two days, she felt that it was better to go out for a walk. Otherwise, she might not be able to get up if she went on like this.
Good-looking couples were always appealing, let alone a couple like Minerva and Maddox. As they walked to the supermarket, they attracted many people's attention along the way. After they arrived there, they ran into Brock.
This time, there was another person beside him. It was a woman with delicate features and a beautiful appearance.
However, this woman looked like a middle-aged woman. Although she was no longer young, she still managed to maintain her charm. Standing next to the plump Brock, they seemed to be a good match. "Nice to see you and your husband here." Brock was always enthusiastic whenever he saw Minerva. After greeting her, he looked at Maddox and smiled at him. However, Maddox didn't seem to want to acknowledge him.
Hence, the woman next to Brock reached out and gave him a gentle pinch. "What are you doing? Who are you greeting?" "Honey, this is the young couple I met in the lift that I told you about." The woman looked at Minerva and Maddox in confusion.
"The young couple from the sneighborhood and elevator?" "That's right. She's the girl from the selevator. This is... my, my wife, Betty." Brock's cheeks started blushing when he was introducing his wife. He seemed embarrassed as he looked at Betty. She glared at him and asked, "Why are you stuttering?" Brock was flushed as he rubbed his hands nervously without saying anything.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMinerva felt a little awkward as she watched this scene unfold before her eyes. She glanced at the man beside her subconsciously. She probably never experienced how Brock was with his wife in front of Maddox.
"Miss, don't worry about him. He's not a smooth talker. When I first got together with him, his silly mouth couldn't pleaseat all. If he wasn't obedient, I wouldn't be with him." Betty was very outgoing. She went up to Minerva and grabbed her hand. "What do you want to buy here? Let's go together since we've also just arrived." Minerva had been staying in the room for the past two days and had not spoken to anyone else. When she heard Betty's invitation, she was a little tempted. However, she couldn't help but glance at Maddox beside her. He wouldn't agree, would he? After their previous incident, who knew what awaited them in the supermarket? Speaking of this, Minerva remembered that she had forgotten to ask him who was following her that day. Did he find anything after such a long time? Or had he already found out, but he didn't tell her? It seemed that she had to find tto ask about it.
Probably because the request in her heart had been heard, Maddox unexpectedly said with great mercy, "Let's go in together." Brock was overjoyed. After all, he thought that the cold- faced Maddox would reject the invitation instantly. Who knew that he would actually agree? What was happening? Minerva was delighted but also a little suspicious. She stared at Maddox asking, "Are you really okay with this?" His thin lips moved and he was about to say something when Betty grabbed Minerva's hand. She then pulled Minerva to her side and instructed, "Miss, you can't do this. How can you ask him for his opinion on everything? You can do whatever you want. If he doesn't like it, you two should break up." As soon as she finished her words, a cold and murderous gaze swept over her. Betty could feel it but she wasn't afraid. Instead, she raised her lips and said with a smile, "You see, he's so possessive. He's angry because of my casual remark. If you really break up with him, he'll probably turn the world upside down." Minerva didn't know if he would turn the world upside down. However, she knew that if she was to be separated from Maddox, he would likely continue to pester her. In fact, he would use extrmethods to keep her by his side.
"As an elder, letremind you. You shouldn't put up with everything he does or you will be bullied. Look atnow, he won't dare to disobey me. He listens to everything I say." "You should control him dominantly. Let's walk in front of them. I'll teach you stricks." Minerva was slightly embarrassed but Betty was overly enthusiastic. She held Minerva's hand and kept moving forward so she had no choice but to follow her.
Brock walked to Maddox's side with a grin. "Let's hurry up and follow them?" Maddox looked at him coldly and said, "Is this how you live your life?"
Brock was stunned for a while before reacting. What was Maddox referring to? He reached out and scratched his head. There seemed to be a conflicted expression on his face. However, he quickly relaxed. A simple and honest smile appeared on his face.
"It doesn't matter. We are already husband and wife. It's the seven if you take a step backward or forward. Anyway, even if she wins, Gusband, I'm fine with that. am her so naturally, I will give in to her." Maddox agreed with the latter sentence. He felt that he could give in to Minerva but he could not bear that she did not want to give birth to his child. Neither could he tolerate her being in touch with other men. "I know you must think ofas a coward, but I feel happy. That's enough." Brock was still talking. Maddox looked away and said coldly, "You talk too much!" Brock caught up with him, stared at him, and said, "Looking at the way you two acted, you've encountered difficulties, haven't you?" Maddox frowned and said unhappily, "It's none of your business!"
"How can it have nothing to do with me? Aren't we neighbors? We even take the selevator. It's fate that we have met several times. There's something wrong with you and your wife. Do you wantto share a few tricks with you?" Tricks? Maddox sneered. "What's that?" Did he even need it?
