Chapter 768

Anything else?

Minerva thought about it again.

So such a scene appeared in the secretary's office.

The assistant secretary stood there as if she was trying to recall something. While Linda, thesecretary, was standing on the side and staring at her assistant curiously and nervously.

Linda asked, "Did he say anything else?"

Minerva came to her senses and shook her head. "No."

"Really? Nothing else?"

"Well, I cleaned the windowsill and then left."

Of course, she wouldn't tell Linda about what happened in the office. She couldn't believe whathappened just now herself.

Linda was skeptical. She had a feeling that Minerva was lying to her. Why didn't Sebastian getangry and say nothing? Even though he had only been in this position for a short period of time, hedid not seem like an amiable and easy to approach person according to his usual behavior.

However, there seemed to be nothing wrong with Minerva's state. She wasn't in a bad mood either.She didn't seem to be lying. Therefore, she could only let her go.

"Well, you can continue to work."

"Okay."

After Minerva went to work, Linda went to the office with the intention of seeking confirmation. Thedoor wasn't closed. She stood beside it and knocked on the door.

Maddox looked up and his deep gaze fell on her.

He looked at Linda coldly, and she suddenly felt a run chill down her back as she walked into theoffice.

"Mr. Sebastian."

He retracted his sight and put his eyes back on the notebook. "Linda, what's the matter?"

She was speechless.

He didn't ask her about the cleaning incident? Was it really like what Minerva said? Mr. Sebastiandidn't get angry?

Why was it so strange?

She felt as if something was stuck in her throat. It took her a long time to regain her voice.

"Mr. Sebastian, about the cleaning incident this morning..."

"Yes." He interrupted her with a light voice. "It's finished."

Finished? She swallowed her words. She was embarrassed to ask him about how to deal with it, soshe could only agree. "Since you have dealt with it, then there is nothing, but I still have to apologizeto you. I didn't warn her in advance, so I'm the one at fault. Next time..."

He did not seem to have the patience to listen to her. He nodded as a sign that he got it.

How could she not understand his expression? She tactfully said nothing more and said, "Then I'llgo back first."

After that, Linda turned around and walked out.

"Wait a minute."

Maddox, who had kept his head low, seemed to have thought of something. He looked up at herand reminded her lightly, " Linda, take that thing with you when you leave."

What were the things?

She followed his gaze and looked over.

It was a basin that was used to clean.

She was speechless.

Was it left behind by Minerva?

On the other hand, Mr. Sebastian was not angry. On the contrary, he was so calm that he asked herto bring the things away?

Linda felt excited in her heart but she didn't show her feelings. Then, she walked over and bentdown to pick up the basin and went out of the office.

Minerva was sorting out the documents in the secretary's office. She was just an intern and it wasonly her second day of work. Hence, she only did trivial work that didn't her need to think too muchabout.novelbin

As soon as she was done, Linda came back and quickly walked in front of her. She looked atMinerva with a serious face and asked, "Be honest with me, what's your relationship with Mr.

Sebastian?"

Minerva was bewildered.

What's going on?

She looked at Linda in confusion. What happened? Why did Linda ask her about her relationshipwith Mr. Sebastian?

Did she investigate her?

When she thought of this, her heart skipped a beat.

However, she soon calmed down. With Linda's power, she should not have been able to find outanything even if she had investigated her. Quill had already finished cleaning up the aftermath forher.

She could not reveal her identity as Maddox's wife so soon.

As she thought of this, she looked at Linda with a confused expression, "Linda, what do you mean?"

When Linda saw the puzzled and sincere look on her face, she felt that she had misunderstood her.

But it was impossible. If she had no relationship with Mr. Sebastian, why would he help her?

As she thought of this, she squinted her eyes and pretended to be experienced. "I have beenthrough this before. I've already seen the small dispute between the two of you. Do you want to hideit from me?"

Minerva had seen people in the business field before. Before she came here, she had alreadyinquired about it. When she saw Linda looking at her with such an expression, she knew that shewas pretending to be profound.

She smiled slightly and said softly, "Linda, if I had anything to do with Mr. Sebastian, why would I beyour assistant? You're also experienced. If there was really something between me and Mr.Sebastian, why would I take up the position of an assistant secretary? Running up and down, beingan intern?"

According to what she said, it seemed to make sense.

If she had a relationship with Sebastian, why would she have to be an assistant secretary? Whydidn't she ask Sebastian to give her a happy and relaxed position in the company?

"Mr. Sebastian has mysophobia. Anyone who doesn't clean up will be fired. However, he is notangry at you?"

Minerva didn't know how to reply to that.

She was also a little absent-minded when she heard this.

That's right. When she left, she thought Maddox would fire her out of anger, but he didn't.

Linda must have guessed it because of this incident.

Minerva had to think of an excuse. She blinked her eyes and said softly, "I don't know why either.Maybe Mr. Sebastian was in a good mood and I'm lucky?"

Linda was speechless.

It seemed that she couldn't find any other reason beside this?

Alright, sometimes luck was also a kind of strength.

She could only comfort herself like this. She did not speak to Minerva again. Instead, she went tosettle her work.

After she left, Minerva heaved a sigh of relief.

Just as she had expected. Linda was pretending to be profound.

Minerva reached out her hand and pinched the space between her eyebrows. Then, she continuedto work.

The following day was peaceful. In between, she made around three cups of coffee for Maddox andLinda served them to him one cup after another.

Finally, when she was asked to make another cup of coffee, she counted. She felt that Maddox hadtoo much coffee that day.

She frowned her beautiful eyebrows and thought, "What's wrong with this b*stard?"

"Linda, don't you think that Mr. Sebastian has too much coffee in a day?" She couldn't help but ask.

Linda paused for a moment and nodded in agreement.

"I also think so. An ordinary person can only drink two or three cups a day. It's not good to overdoeverything."

Minerva agreed and nodded.

Linda continued, "But I don't know why. The amount of coffee he had a day before was quitenormal. It seems that the amount of coffee he drinks had increased for no reason in the past twodays. Could it be that he didn't sleep well at night?"
