Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 652

Maddox had no intention of letting her go. He grabbed her hand and said, "Don't you want to touchit? Touch it."

As if Minerva would dare to touch it. If she did, she would probably have to pay a great price inreturn.

Her body still felt weak and she couldn't stand to be tortured by Maddox again. She definitely couldnot withstand a couple more times; in fact, she could barely even stand one.

Thinking of this, she smiled awkwardly and tried to pull her hand back. At the same time, she said,"Um... Ifs too much... Let's forget about it..."

Right as she finished speaking； Maddox forcefully pulled her hand over to touch his ear.

Minerva remained dumbfounded on the spot, staring at the man in front of her.

"Is this man... crazy???"

"You've already touched it. You can't back out now."

Maddox pressed down on her and his cold thin lips landed on her neck. His breath was gettinghotter.

"Now that everything's settled, you should trust me now, right?"

Minerva paused for a moment. She subconsciously put her arms around his neck and said softly,"Actually..."

"What?"

She hesitated for a long time, but still did not say anything.

"It's nothing."

"What's the matter?" Her hesitation worried Maddox. He grew a little anxious as he thought of howshe had tears at the corners of her eyes before she went to bed the night before. As such, the urgein him faded.

He stepped back and stared seriously into her eyes.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

Minerva shook her head and said, "It's really nothing. I was just staring into space just now."

In fact, she wanted to tell him that she already trusted him a long time ago, but it seemed a littlepointless to mention it now, so she kept silent.

After a pause, she said, "I trust you."

Maddox stared at her with his black eyes as if he was worried about something.

"Last night..."

"What about last night?"

Looking at how lively her gaze was and how initiative she had been that morning, Maddox felt likeperhaps he was overthinking.

Perhaps he cared too much and that was why he was so afraid of losing her.

He could read situations in the corporate world, but he couldn't read the love of his life before him.

A woman's thoughts...

Maddox took a deep breath and held her in his arms. He said in a low voice, "Nothing."

In his arms, Minerva blinked, "Have you purchased the flight tickets yet?"

"Nope."

"You're not planning on going back?" She raised her head and frowned, "Won't your companycrumble if you stay here too long?"

"Sam is there. It'll be fine."

"But..."

"It's so rare for us to be together. Don't you want to take a look around?"

Maddox began to tempt her.

Did he want to travel together? Minerva was definitely tempted to travel with him. However... Shehad just gotten together with him, so they couldn't just leave the company and family aside right?

Thinking of this, she shook her head and said, "Maybe next time. It's not convenient now. I camehere abruptly. I have a lot of things to settle back home."

"What do you need to settle? I can take care of them for you."

"There's no need. I can handle them myself."

"Minerva..." Maddox leaned against her neck and called out her name softly. He deliberatelylowered his voice with a hint of seduction in his tone.

His voice was smooth, like fine wine flowing down her throat. She was getting turned on.

Her heart began to tremble and she tried to stand her ground.

"No, I'm not going. Next time, okay?"

"You really don't want to go? It's such a rare opportunity..."

She didn't want to listen to him anymore. She pushed him away, got up and went into the room.

After entering the room, Minerva went straight to the bathroom. She began removing her makeup.She had nothing to do anyway. She wasn't used to wearing makeup for so long. She felt like shewas wearing a mask and it was uncomfortable.

After removing her makeup, Minerva went to pack and checked for flight tickets on her phone.

As soon as Maddox came in, Minerva said to him directly, "There's a return flight at 5 p.m. Should Ibook it?"

She did not turn to look at him when she asked. As such, she could not see him frowning.

"Are you in such a hurry to go back?"

"As I said, I came here too abruptly. I've not settled a lot of things. Must I stay?"

Maddox could sense the helplessness in her tone. He finally realized that he had been pushing hertoo hard.

"Okay, I'll get someone to book the tickets."

"You don't have to do that. Pass me your passport and 1*11 book ours together."

He walked over and gave her his passport.

Minerva was very fast. After booking two tickets, she curled her lips again and said, "If I had knownwe were heading out again later, I wouldn't have taken off my makeup."

"Just put more on later. There's not much difference when you put makeup on anyway."

She thought about it and decided not to put on any makeup. She could just wear a mask later; itwas not like she was heading to work anyway.

When the time came, the two checked out of their room and went to the airport.

Before returning, Minerva sent a message to Vera telling her that she was flying back at 5 in theevening. It would probably be quite late at night by the time she arrived home.

When Vera heard she was coming back, she immediately replied, telling her that Beanie was askingMinerva to bring back gifts.

Gifts?

Upon hearing this, she was stunned for a moment. She went out in a hurry. Where would she findthe time to go get gifts for Beanie?

Just as Minerva was about to refuse, an arm suddenly stretched out from beside her. He took herphone over and answered for her.

"Okay."

"What are you doing?"

She wanted to take the phone back, "We're already at the airport. We don't have time to go getgifts."

Maddox's lips curled up and his expression was a little mysterious.

"I've already bought one."

"You... You already bought one?" Minerva was a little surprised. "When did you go out to buy a gift?How did I not know? And..."

"It's a gift. I'll give it to him when I see him."novelbin

Maddox locked the screen and returned the phone to her. Then, he grabbed her wrist and pulledher into his arms.

"After all, I'm his dad now. I should prepare a greeting gift."

She felt like something was off. How could he have prepared a gift on such short notice? They hadbeen together in the hotel for the past few days, but never did she see him bring anything backwhen he went out.

She was a little curious, "What gift did you get? Can I have a look?"

"Why?" Maddox raised his eyebrows, "Are you trying to steal his gift away?"

"Who said I was going to take it away? I'm just curious."

"No/ he pursed his thin lips and slowly lifted them. "It's a secret between Beanie and me. You can'tknow."

Fine." Minerva had a feeling she would be cast aside once Maddox and Beanie got acquainted.
