Female Novel
Chapter 582
"Relationship problems?" Upon hearing this, Minerva felt a headache coming on. She startedmassaging the part between her brows. Recalling what had happened in the past few days, shehelplessly asked.
"Well, it's not safe at home these few days. I feel at ease with you accompanying Beanie. By theway, my brother is not suspicious of it, is he?"
"I don't think so. He looks fine. Maybe it's just me... Well, I don't dare to keep an eye on him, so Idon't know what's going on with him. But I think that as long as he doesn't ask about you, thereshould be no problems."
"Okay."
The two of them chatted for a while more before hanging up.
Regarding Vera's excuse to leave home, she was helpless, but she could only accept it.
The next day.
When Minerva woke up, she felt much more relaxed. Sleeping was indeed the best cure forillnesses.
She washed up and changed as usual, then did her makeup and went downstairs.
She made breakfast and packed it up so that she could have it while she was at the office. Whenshe was done preparing, she realized that she had made an extra set.
Minerva stared blankly at the extra set of breakfast in front of her. Suddenly, a handsome faceappeared in her mind.
She suddenly came to her senses and shook her head.
No, why would she prepare breakfast for Maddox subconsciously?
She had clearly wanted to reject him, hadn't she?
In the end, Minerva went out with two portions of breakfast. After locking the door, she waited forthe elevator. She stared at the elevator display above. For some reason, as she looked at theelevator coming up, she became nervous.
She bit her lower lip and suddenly felt a little annoyed that she was feeling this way.
This was because she was expecting Maddox to walk out of the elevator door.
Realizing that she had such a thought, Minerva's face quickly fell. She wanted to quickly get into theelevator to avoid running into him.
Otherwise, she would not even know how to face Maddox in such a state.
Ding.
The elevator finally opened and she quickly walked in, afraid that Maddox would appear out ofnowhere.
She watched as the elevator doors slowly closed. When she realized that she was the only personin the elevator, Minerva heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she felt a sense of loss anddisappointment in her heart.
She stretched out her hand to cover her chest as she was really annoyed by this feeling.
She thought that she had already abandoned such thoughts. Even if she couldn't do it, sheshouldn't have such feelings for Maddox. From the moment that she had decided to come back, she
decided to seal up all her emotions.
But who would have thought...
Man proposes, but God disposes.
The elevator went all the way down smoothly, with no stops in between. She was alone all the way.
After arriving on the 1st floor, Minerva took a deep breath, pulled together her emotions and put ona smile.
It wasn't a big deal. There were two sandwiches. She could give them to Vera later. She didn't haveto give it to Maddox.
Ding.
With a smile on her face, Minerva was about to step out of the elevator. The moment she looked outof the elevator, she was stunned.
The man standing outside the elevator looked a little anxious. Although he was breathing heavily, hestill appeared handsome as usual. Who else could it be other than Maddox?
He stepped into the elevator and grabbed her wrist as he asked anxiously, "Are you okay?"
Minerva was confused. "Huh, what's the matter?"
Maddox narrowed his eyes and scanned her from head to toe. Only after ensuring that she wassafe and sound did he let out a sigh of relief. Then, he pulled her out of the elevator.
"What's wrong?" Minerva didn't understand why he was acting so nervous. She didn't expect to runinto him there either.
Had he been waiting for her here? However, it didn't seem like it.
Maddox pursed his lips and stared at her with a serious expression.
"Next time, don't go out alone when I'm not around."
"What's wrong? I just took the elevator."
"Even taking the elevator isn't allowed." Maddox looked frustrated and wasn't in a good mood. "Doyou know how worried I was when I saw you walking out of the house on my phone? I just went outto buy breakfast for you. How could you make me feel so worried?"
Minerva looked at him. "Did you just say that you saw me leaving my house on your phone?"
Maddox kept quiet.
Minerva smiled and teased him, "So, are you admitting that you have indeed installed a surveillancecamera at my doorstep?"
Maddox gritted his teeth. He didn't expect to have exposed himself.
Seeing that he didn't answer, the answer was obvious.
Looking at him being defeated, Minerva was in a good mood. She didn't know whether she washappy because he had appeared in front of her unexpectedly, or because she made himspeechless.
What was important was that she was in a good mood. Minerva then asked him.
"Did you buy me breakfast? What did you buy?"
Maddox's eyes were still filled with annoyance. Hearing her cheerful tone and seeing that she wassafe, he handed the bag to her and said, "I just bought something simple."
She reached out to take it from him and opened the bag to have a look. A fragrant smell greetedher.
It was just some warm milk and omelettes. She looked at them for a while and looked up inconfusion. "It seems that you have only bought one portion."
"It's for you," Maddox answered naturally. Then, he reached out, grabbed the car keys from herhands and said, "Let's go."
Minerva, who had been robbed of her keys, did not expect it at all. She followed him in a daze."Where are we going?"
"You got up so early, aren't you going to the company? I'll take you there."
Minerva was stunned. Had he already predicted that she would go to work, which was why he hadgone out to buy breakfast for her? The food in the bag was still warm. Minerva followed him to theparking lot with the food in her hand.
After getting in the car, Minerva fastened the seatbelt for herself.
After leaving the neighborhood, Maddox reminded her while he drove, "The milk is still warm. Drinkit first. Well arrive at the company soon."
The cup of warm milk was in Minerva's hands. Of course, she knew that she had to drink it while itwas still warm.
After thinking for a while, she couldn't help but turn to him again.novelbin
"You only bought one portion of breakfast?"
Maddox replied, "Yes."
"Have you eaten yet?" Han Minerva couldn't help but ask again.
Maddox paused for a moment and nodded. "Yes."
Minerva felt that something was amiss and narrowed her eyes at Maddox.
Before this question, he did not hesitate at all when he answered her questions. However, when sheasked him about breakfast, he hesitated for a while before nodding.
Thus, it was obvious that...
"You bought breakfast for me as soon as you got up?"
"That's right."
"And you have already eaten? How is that possible?" Minerva asked as if she was interrogatinghim.
