Chapter 766

"Nice view?"

Minerva was still thinking; it was fun that he kissed her without knowing it.

When she heard what he said, she subconsciously nodded her head.

However, it didn't take long for her to realize that something was wrong.

She and Maddox were the only two people left in the office. Who else could ask her that questionother than him?

She came to her senses and realized that he had already stood up. His gaze landed on her faceand he was looking at her mockingly, asking her this question.

Her ears were a little hot and she was stunned.

She could only pretend that nothing had happened. She turned her head and continued to wipe thewindowsill like a machine.

Da-da...

Footsteps approached her from behind as if Maddox was walking. The steady footstep slowlyapproached her, as if he was stepping on her heart with every step.

As he got closer and closer, Minerva's heartbeat picked up speed.

She also did not know what was going on. It was obvious that they were familiar with each othereven though he didn't recognize her now.

Why was she still restless when he was trying to get close to her?

She clutched the wet towel in her hand. Just as she was about to turn around and flee, she bumpedinto Maddox's chest.

"Ah!"

In the next second, he opened his hands and trapped her in his arms.

She subconsciously put her hands in front of her chest. She stared at him with wide eyes anddisbelief.

What was he doing? He was obviously avoiding her on that day, but why did he suddenly come overto her?

"You joined the Collins Corporation for me, right?"

His eyes were cold, but his tone was a little sinister. The tall figure stood in front of her and lookingfrom behind, he almost covered her completely.

"You did it on purpose that day at the gate." He wasn't asking; he was sure.

She didn't know what to say.

Of course, she couldn't admit it. If she had joined the company because of him, she would havebeen kicked out by him. After all, this Maddox was different from the previous one.

Hence, she shook her head forcefully and denied it.novelbin

Although she kept denying and shaking her head in front of him, her clear eyes were full of panic,as if she was telling a lie.

What was more... There seemed to be some other emotion.

However, he could not tell what it was.

He was squinting his eyes and bending down; he wanted to get closer to her to see more clearly.

Just like that, she saw him leaning closer and closer to her. His warm breath even sprayed on herface, making her heart beat faster and faster.

Dong...

A sound came from the door, waking her up.

George stood at the door of the office, looking at this scene with a shocked face.

She came back to her senses and rushed out of Maddox's arms. She ran out of the office as if shewas being chased by someone. When she ran past George, he was still staring at her with interest.

After she left, George chuckled with one hand in his pocket.

"Sebastian, you're really making me more and more surprised. Wasn't it rumored that you weren'tclose to women? You wouldn't even spare a glance at any woman who tried to strike up aconversation with you, but now, you're..."

He was really surprised and shook his head helplessly. He tutted and said, "I didn't expect you to bethe same as me."

Maddox was still maintaining his original posture. Upon hearing this, he withdrew his hand andwalked back to his desk with a cold expression.

It was a pity that he didn't have time to see the look in her eyes and let her run away.

He picked up the cup of coffee which he drank before and brought it to his mouth.

George had already walked up to him and looked at him naughtily, "Did you kiss her?"

He stopped the action of drinking the coffee. Fortunately, he hadn't started yet. Otherwise...

He might have choked on George's words.

Maddox turned his head away and cast his gloomy eyes on him.

Seeing that he had kissed a girl, George's impression of him was fixed on the point where he andMaddox were the same. When he saw Maddox looking at him coldly, not only was he not afraid, buthe even went up to him and winked at him.

"How do you feel?"

Maddox looked away and sat down on the chair with the cup in his hand. He said coldly, "Don'tshow your dirty thoughts in front of me."

He lowered his head and took a sip of coffee, letting the smell of coffee spread in his mouth. Hesaid slowly, "I am different from you."

George snorted. "You're different from me? I did think that you were really different from me. Afterall, everyone in this company knows that you, Mr. Collins, don't like girls. I thought that was true. Butwhat did I just see? What did I see???"

He recalled the way Maddox had trapped a woman in his arms. He just wanted to kiss her, didn'the?

Maddox pursed his thin lips, his aura became extremely cold.

"Do you have something to say?"

Speaking of this, George immediately became serious and nodded, "Of course I have something tosay. Do you know the bad old man in my family?"

Maddox stayed calm. He looked down at his notebook with a cold face, as if he didn't see him at all.

"He clearly knows how much I like to play and how much I like beautiful women, but the old manfound me a fiancee. I asked someone to check it out for me and found out that the woman... is notpretty at all. I also heard that she is very strong- willed, and is a fierce woman. If I am with thiswoman in the future, won't I be controlled to death?"

Maddox ignored him. His fingers were tapping on the keyboard, his expression still cold.

George seemed to have gotten used to his attitude, and he didn't care. He continued to talk aboutthe bitterness in his heart.

"Of course, I didn't agree to it, but the bad old man said that if I don't go, he would have to stop allmy bank cards. Sebastian, help me think of a way."

"Sebastian, did you hear that? Hurry up and help me think of a way."

Maddox raised his head and looked at his face with cold eyes. He said unceremoniously, "Get out."

George was speechless.

F*ck, what kind of friend did he have?

At crucial moments, there was not even a way.

"Or, can you go to see the woman on my behalf? If the woman sees you, she may be fascinated byyou. At that time, even the old man in my family can't take advantage of me.

Maddox sneered. "You wish."

He didn't want to help, so George couldn't do anything about it. He was so angry that he sat downon the sofa like a rogue and crossed his legs.

"Alright, since you're not willing to help, then I'll have to stay in your office. In the future, I'll eat anddrink from you. If the old man stops my bank card, I'll go to your house. Anyway, Master Collinswon't chase me away."

"It's up to you."

Maddox's expression was cold and indifferent. He did not care about this matter at all.

It was as if the Collins family's fortune didn't belong to him at all.
