Chapter 745

Minerva already knew that Quill wouldn't tell her if he wasn't sure.

However... she was still swayed by considerations of gain and loss.

She always felt that all this was so unreal. As it had been a long time, yet they had not found thewhereabouts of Maddox.

There have been news, but it made her felt unreal.

She was afraid that the news would be unreal.

Quill rarely saw Minerva in this state. She was obviously a mother, but at this moment, she was likea little girl, she stared at him with red eyes. Her face was full of shock as if even her soul wastrembling.

He stretched out his hand and patted Minerva's head. The warmth from his palm was transmittedcontinuously to her.

Such a unique action was to comfort her.

"Don't worry."

Quill spoke and his voice was clear and gentle. "I won't do anything I'm not sure of." Upon hearingQuill's assurance, Minerva felt her heart began to ease. However, before seeing Maddox, her heartwas still hanging in midair.

This feeling would only disappear after she saw him, touched him, knew that he was safe, and wentback to her side.

"Sit down." Quill pulled her up and handed the menu to her. "You just got off work. You must behungry. Let's eat something first."

Minerva shook her head. "I don't have an appetite."

"Even if you don't have an appetite, you also have to eat. We are going on the plane later, they don'thave a plane meal for you. Unless you want to see him with an empty stomach?"

Minerva did not respond.

Juliette sat down next to her and smiled helplessly. "Even if Miss Minerva isn't hungry, don't let thebaby in your stomach get hungry. It's already time for dinner, and it's about time for the baby to eat."

Minerva was still quiet.

Under the persuasion of the two of them, Minerva finally ordered some food and drink.

At first, she really didn't have much of an appetite. She felt that all her attention was on

Maddox.

However, after she put the food into her mouth, she actually felt that it tasted decent, perhapsbecause of her pregnancy.

It was still early from the time they get on the plane. Quill cut a piece of steak and said, "It's stillearly. Enjoy it slowly and take good care of yourself. Only then you have the energy to find him. Bythen..."

Quill didn't continue with the rest of his words, but obviously, his eyes darkened a little.

"What would happen?" Minerva took a bite of the food and suddenly thought of something. Shestared at Quill.

"By the way, Secretary Sharpio told me on the phone that you had some doubts that I need toanswer when I come. Now that I'm here... what kind of doubts do you have?"

Speaking of this, Juliette and Quill looked at each other. Juliette smiled and explained, "It's not theright time yet. Let's talk about it after we get off the plane."

So mysterious...

Minerva had a bad feeling. She frowned and couldn't eat anymore. She put down the fork

"Then you just tell me directly that this doubt is about Maddox, right?"

Juliette nodded.

Minerva suddenly became uneasy. "What happened to him?"

Juliette did not reply. Quill lowered his head and drank his coffee as well.

"Secretary Sharpio? Is he injured? Tell me, is he safe and sound?"

Juliette felt that if she doesn't say anything else, Minerva would really go crazy. The mood of thepregnant woman couldn't be fluctuating too much, so she could only say hurriedly, "Miss Minerva,don't worry. What we said doesn't refer to Young Master Yardley's safety. Young Master Yardley is ina good condition and safe."

Upon hearing that Maddox was safe, Minerva finally heaved a sigh of relief.

"As long as he's safe..."

Then, the rest of the doubts were no longer doubts.

When she saw him, she didn't know how he would feel. This fool...

At that time, she must ask him why did he gave all his property and shares to her without herconsent.

Does this mean that after he did this, he wanted to leave, or perhaps when something happened,he would not feel guilty?

She was sure to give him a scolding. Why did he suddenly went back to Hildago? Why didn't hetake her with him when he returned?

This b*stard...

The rims of Minerva's eyes reddened as she thought about it. She picked up her fork and immersedherself in eating.

After they finished eating, everyone was busy.

Quill's eyes were always focused on the notebook and also had a video conference.

Juliette took notes by the side.

Instead, Minerva was the idlest person.

She was also very busy when she was at the company, but she had never brought her work pastworking hours.

Because she knew that she was pregnant, she couldn't be that willful. If she didn't have a good rest,and if there was something wrong with her body, then it would bring trouble to the baby.

Since Maddox was not around, She had to preserve their baby.

She had thought that when he came back, he might see a lively child.

But... there was no need for that now. She would be able to see him soon.

The baby was already two months old, she would share this good news with him.

When the plane arrived in Averland, Minerva and her team came out of the airport with theirsuitcases.

"Are we going to look for Maddox now?" Minerva turned to look at Juliette and asked while theywere walking on the VIP path.

Juliette couldn't help but laugh at her anxious look. She said, "Miss Minerva, we took such a longflight. We have to go to the hotel first, wash up, and then take a rest."

Minerva remained silent.

Quill gave her an indifferent glance and said, "You're not tired even flying for an entire night?"

Minerva shook her head. "I'm not tired."

She didn't sleep on the plane. Maybe it was because she was too nervous, her palms were sweatyand her heart was beating so fast that she couldn't fall asleep.

"Even if you're not tired you still have to rest. Look at your face."

Quill took out his phone, turned on the camera in front of his phone, and handed it over to Minerva.

She took it and glanced at it.

Her dark circles were very heavy and because she had just finished work yesterday, she had notime to remove her makeup.

She saw that After a night's rush, her makeup had been ruined and her hair was in a mess.

Minerva thought herself really looked like a crazy woman.novelbin

It was not right to go see Maddox just like that.

"Okay, let's go to the hotel first."

Although she really wanted to see Maddox right away, she couldn't do it now. He would be scared ifshe behaved like this.

Minerva was willing to take a step back to the hotel because of her image, which made Juliette andQuill more worried.

After all... they had yet to tell Minerva about that problem.

They didn't know what she would think when she found out.
