Chapter 703

Minerva didn't know how long she had slept for, but her dreams were full of the sinister voices ofSylvia's curses. They kept resonating in her ears, disturbing her all night long.

Minerva suddenly widened her eyes and found that it was already daybreak. The warmth on herback had also disappeared.

She was the only one in bed.

Her heart was thumping fast, and her forehead covered with sweat.

Minerva blinked and suddenly sat up. Seeing the blue sea outside the window, her eyelid started totwitch again.

She subconsciously reached out her hand and pressed on the twitching eyelids. However, shecould clearly feel her eyelids twitching under her finger.

Why was this happening?novelbin

Was something bad going to happen? They were just days away from the wedding. If anything wasto happen to Maddox or her... Would there be no turning back?

No!

She didn't want this to happen, so she got up and went to get her phone.

Sure enough, she saw Maddox's text, saying that he had already gone to the airport. She looked atthe time, and the flight shouldn't have departed. Hence, she sent him a message telling him to takegood care of himself.

Then, she directly dialed Quill's number.

Hel was preparing for a meeting when she received Minerva's call.

"What's wrong?"

"Quill..." Minerva's tone didn't sound good. She reached out her hand and pinched her achingtemple. "There's something I want to tell you. Otherwise, I'll always feel uneasy."

He could hear the entanglement in her tone. Just then, Juliette walked in. "Mr. Hanover, themeeting..."

Before she could finish her words, he raised her hand to stop her.

Juliette had no choice but to stop talking. Then, she saw him walking over to the window. He saidsolemnly, "What makes you feel uneasy? Isn't the wedding going to be held soon? Did he make youuneasy? Do you regret it?"

Minerva said, "It's not because of him. There's something else..."

"Something else?" He pursed his lips as he saw the traffic outside the window, waiting calmly.

After that, Minerva gradually told him about what had happened with Sylvia that day. Originally, shewanted to keep this a secret.

"At first, I thought that... With her current strength, she shouldn't be able to stir up any trouble. But...My eyelids twitch so violently that they make me feel uneasy, Quill..."

"So, you want me to help you?"

Although she was embarrassed, she still nodded. "I'm sorry, Quill. I know I shouldn't bother you withthis, but..."

"But you saw that he had been putting a lot of effort into planning the wedding, and you feel sorryfor him?"

These words made Minerva's heart jolt. She could only nod her head and silently admit it.

Then, she heard him sigh heavily.

"I'm really afraid that you'll fall into his hands for the rest of your life. Minerva... Do you know thatmen can't be spoiled? If he's willing to do it, you'll have to let him be. When he gets used to it, hewon't complain about anything he does in the future. Moreover, humans will always cherishsomething harder to get, you..."

"Quill, I know what you're trying to say." She cut him off. "But love is a matter between two people. Itwon't last long if only one of us puts in the effort. Besides, we're going to hold our wedding soon. Idon't want... anything unexpected to happen before the wedding. That's why I'm asking you forhelp."

Suddenly, the other end of the phone fell silent. She was not sure if Quill was willing to help her, soshe waited patiently. After a while, she finally heard him sigh and say, "I know. I will help you settlethis matter. The only thing you have to worry about is your wedding."

Upon hearing that he was willing to help her, Minerva was finally relieved. She was both touchedand gratified. "Thank you, Quill."

"Silly girl, it took me a lot of effort to find you and bring you back. If you end up unhappy, then Ireally don't have the guts to face Mother."

After Quill promised to help her solve her problem with Sylvia, Minerva felt much relieved. However,she still stuck to her previous plan. There was still more than an hour before Maddox took off. Shepacked up her clothes and then asked the driver to send her to the airport.

After getting in the car, she took out her phone to book her a flight.

Seeing that there were still tickets available, she couldn't help but smirk.

"Maddox, I'm coming!" She thought excitedly.

No matter what, she had to stay by his side. It was likely that she would feel uneasy until thewedding was finally over.

When she arrived at the airport, the driver looked at her puzzledly.

"Young Madam, shouldn't we... at least inform Mr. Yardley about you being at the airport?"

Minerva shook her head. "There's no need to tell him. I don't want him to know."

If Maddox found out, would he still let her roam around freely? She wanted to go there secretly. Shewould call him when they finally arrived there.

Seeing the chauffeur's hesitant expression, she reassured him before heading into the airport withher bag on her back.

She came out spontaneously, so she only packed a few clothes, a few bottles of skincare products,and a few lipsticks. Then, she headed straight to the counter to collect her flight ticket.

Although she was on the same flight as Maddox, she knew that Maddox must be boarding the planethrough the VIP lane, so she went directly to the boarding gate like everyone else. When she finallyarrived, all the staff members were already checking their flight tickets. Therefore, Minerva directlylined up to board the plane. When she finally sat down and listened to the air stewardess' gentlereminder, Minerva actually felt unbelievable.

She really boarded the plane.

Maddox... He was in the business class seats, wasn't he? When she got off the plane, she would godirectly to look for him, but she didn't know how he would react the moment she met up with him.

Would he be surprised or frightened?

At the thought of Maddox's expression, Minerva couldn't help but chuckle. However, she seemed tobe a little drowsy again, so she had to wait until everyone sat down before going to sleep.

After everyone took their seat, she thought that the plane was going to take off. She didn't expect tohear a cry coming from the front of the plane. She didn't know what was going on, but she saw a tallfigure heading in her direction.

At a glance, her expression changed.

Wasn't that Maddox?

Why was he there? Puzzled, Minerva subconsciously lowered her shoulders and then lowered hercap a little. The plane had not taken off yet, and Maddox suddenly came here. Would he drive heroff the plane?

When she thought up to this point, she started to shrink further in her seat.

"Please don't find me. I've already planned to look for you after the plane landed."
