Female Novel
Chapter 691
"Are you blaming her for not trusting you?"
Hearing this, Maddox lowered his eyes, and his smile seemed to be a little bitter.
"How could I blame her? I didn't trust her back then. Who am I to ask for her trust?"
Quill's gaze was dark as he stared at him.
"It seems that you are quite self-aware. Since you know that there is no trust between the both ofyou, why are you clinging to her? Do you want to repeat the same mistake you made five yearsago?"
Maddox's eyes seemed determined when he glanced at Quill, and both of their eyes met. "Ofcourse not. How many 5 years does a man have? Do you really think that I'm that insane and thatI'm still the man I was five years ago?"
Quill sneered lividly.
"Who knows? Your past can easily distort your temperament. Who knows if you will continuetorturing her? Minerva is the daughter of the Hanover family. She can't marry you so easily."
"What should I do to have your blessing?"
Quill frowned and stared at him disdainfully. At this moment, there was a calm smile on Maddox'shandsome face. His eyes were full of relaxation as if he was not afraid that Quill would refuse.
"Maddox, stop joking around. I'm not here to discuss your marriage with Minerva. I'm here to warnyou to leave her alone."
Maddox smiled lightly, "But you know that it is impossible. We can't live without each other. If weleave each other, we can only be destined to be lonely for the rest of our lives."
Speaking of this, he paused and narrowed his eyes to observe Quill.
"It's fine if you don't want to get married yourself, but as her brother, do you also want her toaccompany you to the grave without a significant other?"
Quill was speechless.
These words angered him, and caused his eyes to light up with displeasure.
"You can't also possibly want Minerva to accompany you to be single for your entire life, right?"novelbin
Quill's eyes were cold as he stared at him. His hands were balled into fists at his side.
"Why do you think that I wanted her to accompany me to be single for the rest of our lives?"
Maddox said, "If you don't wish for that to happen, you should not stand in our way. Five years isenough for you to verify."
Quill frowned. Although he was dissatisfied with Maddox, his words were indeed correct. They couldnot live without each other. Even if they left each other, they would probably never fall in love withanother person again. They could only be destined to be lonely for the rest of their lives.
He thought of bringing Minerva back and pampering her himself.
Even if she didn't get married, it wouldn't matter if she wanted to stay in the Hanover family for therest of her life. He could continue to earn money and support her and Beanie for their entire lives.
She could do whatever she wanted.
If she insisted on marrying someone, Quill felt that she should find someone reliable, someone shecould control. That man should only be faithful to Minerva alone, and he couldn't be mad at her.
At least, someone he could suppress.
Not Maddox. Although the man had a handsome face.
In North City, the Hanover Corporation was considered one of the bigger enterprises. However,compared to the Yardley Corporation, Quill feared that he couldn't keep Maddox under control.
Furthermore, they had some foul history between them. How would he be willing to hand Minervaover to Maddox?
"I'm going to broadcast on television to tell the entire nation that Minerva is going to be my wife."
Tsk...
Quill chuckled in his heart. Maddox suddenly took out a leather bag beside him and put it in front ofhim.
"Of course, this is my true sincerity."
His true sincerity?
Quill glanced at the leather bag and pondered for a moment. He took out the document inside it andhad a look.
He was a little puzzled when he first saw the bold words on the document. It was a share transferdocument. He assumed that Maddox had taken out some of his shares in the Yardley Corporation.
He gave them to Minerva?
As soon as Quill thought of this possibility, he glanced at Maddox.
Based on the Yardley Corporation's reputation in the North City, if Maddox was really willing to givehis shares at the company to Minerva, it would really cost him a lot.
The more he read, the more frightened Quill became. When he finished reading the whole contractand raised his head, Maddox had handed over a black pen with a faint smile. "As the witness,please sign it."
Looking at the pen and the light look on Maddox's face, Quill began to doubt whether the contract infront of him was indeed genuine.
"If you doubt the authenticity of this document, you can ask a lawyer to have a look."
Quill raised his eyes and stared at him.
Maddox smirked slightly.
"Is this enough to show you my sincerity? Brother-in-law?"
Quill was speechless.
He seemed to be choked. He gritted his teeth and huffed, "What brother- in- law? Don't simply callme that!"
"How can you say so?" Maddox's lips curled up. "After Minerva and I get married, you have nochoice."
Quill shut his eyes and held back his anger.
Before he looked up at the contract, he asked, "Did she read it?"
Hearing this, Maddox raised his eyebrows and said, "No, she is marrying me. I don't want her to bestressed out in this way."
Quill had a new level of respect for him. Maddox knew to keep this matter a secret from her.
"It seems like you have some self-awareness. If she finds out that you've given all your shares toher, she'll probably regret agreeing to marry you."
"It seems that you have agreed to our marriage."
After he got what he came for, Maddox stood up and raised his lips in satisfaction. "Since that's thecase, I won't disturb you any further."
Quill was taken aback. Just when he wanted to say that he did not agree, Maddox took the car keysand left the lounge. Quill's expression fell a little. When he wanted to catch up with Maddox, heremembered that the contract was still on the table. He was afraid that someone else would take itaway, so he had to turn back to take it.
Looking at the contract in his hand, Quill's gaze gradually became complicated.
Maddox really gave all his possessions to Minerva.
As long as she officially became Mrs. Yardley, half of Maddox's shares would be transferred to her.If they divorced midway through or if anything happened to him, Minerva would own the shares inhis possession as well as all of his assets.
In other words, if the two of them were to divorce, Maddox would have to hand over all of his assetsto her.
He wouldn't even get a single penny.
No wonder Maddox could be so carefree. It turned out that he had everything planned, and he hadno fears even if Quill didn't agree. Quill let out a deep sigh.
"Minerva, why did you have to get involved with such a complicated person?"
If it wasn't for love, which man would be willing to hand over all of his possessions?
Moreover, she was completely unaware of this.
