Female Novel
Chapter 570
After the doctor left, Sam glanced back into the room.novelbin
Maddox was standing at the side of the bed, staring motionlessly at Minerva who was lying on thebed. There was no arrogance in his eyes; instead his face was full of concern.
It seemed that Maddox fell in love with Minerva.
He had been looking for her for five years. The Hanover family must have wanted to hide her fromhim. That was why he couldn't find her no matter what, but he saw her again 5 years later.
From that moment on, Maddox probably became mad.
'Just let it be, just let him go mad. How long is life?' Sam didn't want to do anything to stop Maddox.
Sam walked in and said respectfully, "Sir, the doctor said that Young Madam will be fine after sherecovers from the fever. If there is nothing else, I'll go back to the company first." After all, therewere still piles of unfinished tasks in the office. Maddox had recently been slacking off and althoughhe was in charge of several important matters, given the company's size, Sam had to shoulder quitea number of tasks too.
It was part of Sam's responsibility.
"Go ahead," Maddox nodded lightly and reminded him, "Don't forget to keep an eye on that matter."
"Yes, I'll keep an eye on it. I'll inform you immediately if there's even the slightest movement," Samreplied.
"Alright," Maddox said.
After Sam left, Maddox remained by Minerva's side. From time to time, he would change her toweland try ways to lower her temperature.
Together with the medicine, Minerva's fever quickly subsided.
Maddox leaned forward and placed his forehead on hers. He checked carefully to make sureMinerva's body temperature had already returned to normal.
He heaved a sigh of relief, but he didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, he placed his hands on both sidesof her and looked at her.
"Why are you so foolish? How can you take care of others if you can't take care of yourself?"Maddox said.
After saying that, Maddox sighed again. He lowered his head and gently kissed the corner ofMinerva's lips. Then, he gently kissed her soft lips. After that, he stood up before he woke his desireup again.
In a certain restaurant.
"What did you say? You've received a notice to leave temporarily? When did I tell you to leave?Didn't I tell you to follow her?"
"What do you mean by this? You've received your pay but you did not complete your task?"
An angry female voice came from a dark corner. A waitress hid in a dark corner of the restaurant,shouted at her phone.
"Dear client, it's not that we don't want to do it, but the situation is like this..."
The other party repeated their explanation to her again, but she still felt annoyed.
"Bullsh*t, I asked you to follow someone, and I had paid you in advance, but you're telling me thatyou retreated after receiving someone else's order? This is a violation of the contract"
"You want to refund the money to me? Do you think this can be solved so easily?"
Another waitress came over and looked with dissatisfaction at the woman who was making a phonecall in the corner. She said angrily, "Sylvia Moore, don't think that just because you hooked up withthe manager, you can slack off and not do any work!"
Sylvia still wanted to curse at the person on the other line, but the sudden call of her name causedher facial expression to change. She quickly covered her cell phone and then cursed loudly at theperson.
"I thought it was someone important. It turned out to be a scum like you."
Sylvia sneered and hung up the phone. She got up and approached the girl.
"Elaine Shell, if you have the ability, feel free to seduce the manager too."
"You!" Elaine was enraged by Sylvia's proud gaze. She gritted her teeth and cursed, "I really don'tunderstand why you can be so shameless. To think that you'd still be so smug after hooking up withan old man."
"What did you say?" Sylvia replied.
Elaine sneered, "Did I say something wrong? The manager is old enough to be your father, but youdon't mind do you? You really are a wh*re!"
Slap!
A slap landed on Elaine's face.
It was such a hard slap that it caused Elaine to stagger a few steps back. She covered her cheek inpain and said, "You dare to hit me?"
Sylvia crossed her arms and said, "If I don't hit you, how will you know your place? So what if themanager is an old man? It's my business. It's not up to you to judge. Moreover, what I have now, Ifought for it. So what if I use dirty tactics? I am willing to pay for it, but are you willing to?"
Elaine stared at her in shock.
She didn't expect that Sylvia would speak so proudly of her affair. Initially, Elaine thought that Sylviawould be angry when she heard Elaine call her names.
She had gotten angry, but still she proudly told Elaine that she was willing to pay for it!
"Shameless! I've never seen anyone more shameless than you," Elaine replied.
"Humph!" Sylvia walked forward with her arms crossed, "Well then, you will be more disappointedwhen I tell you I can be more shameless than this."
After experiencing life at the top, Sylvia was willing to risk everything now that she had fallen downto the bottom.
In the past, she was the eldest daughter of the Hanover family, so she could be domineering, butright then?
She was the daughter of a gambling addict and a woman who would be beaten to death by herfather any time she returned home. She was a victim of bullying by the debt collectors. She hadexperienced all that so what else did she have to lose?
It was all because of that woman.
Sylvia wanted that woman to pay for what she had done to her!
Elaine covered her face and walked outside. When her colleague saw her, he asked her withconcern, "What happened? Your face is swollen."
Hearing such a question, Elaine could not hold back her anger. She said angrily, "Just now, Sylviawas slacking off inside and she hit me after I said a few words to her."
When her colleague heard that, he couldn't help but widen his eyes. "What's wrong with you? Whyare you provoking her? Sylvia is the most popular person in our restaurant. You are asking fortrouble if you provoke her."
"I just don't like her. How can she get away with this?" Elaine asked.
"Why? Because Sylvia is ready to risk everything. She even dared to seduce the old man and sleepwith him. Do you dare to do it?" The colleague asked.
Hearing his words, Elaine realized that she had no reply.
"Sylvia paid with her body; that's why she can be so arrogant in the restaurant. Although she isshameless in our eyes, she's quite proud of herself. Let's not worry about her and just do what weshould do."
Her colleague patted her on the shoulder and advised, "This time, you made a mistake and wastaught a lesson. Don't fight with Sylvia next time. Everyone in the restaurant is afraid of her!"
Elaine was still not convinced. She gritted her teeth and covered her cheek. Did she really have toget slapped for free like that?
No, she could not be bullied for nothing.
Elaine was determined to find out about Sylvia's conversation on the phone just now!
