Female Novel
Chapter 795
Minerva opened the door and saw Geoffrey standing outside. When he saw Minerva, his expressionbecame ambiguous as he smiled and stared at her. "Wow, you guys aren't taking it slow, huh?" hewhispered.
Upon hearing this, the corner of Minerva's mouth could not help but twitch. When she was about tosay something, Maddox's ice- cold voice came from behind her.
"Did you bring everything?"
She turned around and saw Maddox coming over. Geoffrey offered the bag like a treasure andhanded it forward. "Of course, I have everything you need. Go ahead."
Maddox didn't say anything else. After giving Geoffrey a warning look with his sharp eyes, he tookhis clothes and went into the bathroom.
Geoffrey was acting normal when Maddox was here. As soon as he entered the bathroom, Geoffreybecame playful immediately and approached Minerva. "Minerva, you guys are really taking it fastand furious, huh?"
Then, Minerva felt a headache coming on. She pinched the space between her eyebrows and said,"Don't think too much. It's not what you think."
"It's not what I think? Then, what is it?" Geoffrey said as he took off his shoes and walked in. Heclosed the door and lowered his voice. "Don't deny it, Minerva, he is bathing in your house.However, I never thought that Sebastian..."
Feeling that his words were getting more and more outrageous, Minerva could only interrupt himand tell him about what had happened in the kitchen. Only then did she successfully shut Geoffrey'smouth.
Hearing that it was not what he thought. Geoffrey curled his lips in disappointment and said. "Well,you're too useless. It's such a good opportunity...why don't you just drag him to bed?"
Then, Minerva replied, "That's enough, shut up!"
Geoffrey smiled cheekily. "Minerva, I'm doing this for your own good. After all, Sebastian is sogoodlooking. You saw a bunch of women eyeing him covetously when you came for an interviewthe other day. Don't you think it's safer to make the first move?"
Hence, she glanced at the man in front of her helplessly. Obviously, he was doing it for her sake, buthe was really shameless in the way he went about it.
"If you keep talking nonsense, then you can leave," Minerva said.
"Don't!" Geoffrey quickly waved his hand, indicating that he wanted to stay. "I smell the aroma of thefood. Did you cook dinner?" he asked.
Minerva nodded.
"I want to stay for dinner as well," he added.
Hence, Minerva couldn't turn him down so she nodded her head and agreed. Next, Geoffreyfollowed her into the kitchen. She estimated the time Maddox would take to shower, and shebrought all of the dishes to the table when he was about to come out. At the same time, Geoffreywas helping her as well.
"Minerva, if Sebastian drives me out when he came out, you have to speak up for me."
Geoffrey was very close to Minerva when he said this, and he lowered his voice purposely.
Upon hearing this, Minerva was a little curious. "Drive you out?"
"That's right!" Geoffrey nodded vigorously. Based on Sebastian's personality, after taking a shower,he would probably forget who was the one who had sent him the clothes. Then, he would definitelyask him to leave.
He didn't want to leave, instead, he wanted to stay
back for a free meal.
Then, Minerva said, "I don't think so. He is the one who asked you to come over, right?"
"Although he did text to ask me to send the clothes over, but according to his character..."
Before Geoffrey can finish his words, they heard the bathroom door creak open just as Minervaplaced the cutlery on the table. The two of them couldn't help looking in the direction of thebathroom.
After taking a bath, Maddox's hair was still wet, and his skin around his neck was a little redbecause of steam.
He stopped, and his gaze fell on the people at the dining table.
When he noticed that Geoffrey was very close to Minerva, almost leaning against her, Maddoxinstantly frowned fiercely and looked at him with rage.
Then, Geoffrey felt that there were razor blades cutting in the back instantly. When he looked atMaddox carefully, he found that Maddox's gaze had become serious and he was staring at him withdispleasure.
He was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted. He took a few steps back hurriedly andstayed far away from Minerva with a silent sigh.
F*ck, Sebastian's possessiveness was truly strong.
Wasn't he just a little close to her? He didn't even touch her, yet he was glaring at him like this.
But what if... he touched her?
Geoffrey suddenly shook his head as soon as he had this thought. Honestly, he wouldn't dareimagine the consequences.
He felt that if he really did touch Minerva, then Sebastian would really tear him apart.
Thinking of this, he looked at Sebastian with a smile.
"Sebastian, are you done with your shower?" He asked.
Since he kept a distance from Minerva, the anger in Maddox's eyes faded a little. But the hostilitystill existed when he looked at him. He said in a faint tone, "Why don't you leave?"
Minerva, who was about to ask them to sit down for dinner, paused when she heard this. Then, shelooked up at Maddox and then at Geoffrey.novelbin
She didn't believe Geoffrey when he said that Sebastian would drive him away when he was doneshowering. So, she didn't expect...
As she was deep in thought, Geoffrey looked at her with pleading eyes. Since Geoffrey had helpedher a lot, Minerva had no choice but to speak up for him. "I asked him to stay since it's almost timefor dinner. Both of you come and sit down."
Oh!
Geoffrey was so moved that he almost burst into tears. Minerva had really spoken up for him, evenwhen Sebastian looked ready to kill someone.
Honestly, he was really touched.
Then, Geoffrey quickly walked to the table and took a seat. After he sat down, he winked at Minervaand said in a low voice, "Mrs. Collins, you're amazing."
Minerva was at a loss for words.
His voice was a whisper that only she heard. However, the house she rented was not large, so whatif Maddox heard how he addressed her?
Thinking of this, Minerva smiled as she ladled a bowl of soup for him. She bent down and said in alow voice, "Don't call me that when he's around."
"Okay, thank you, Mrs. Collins."
Minerva was speechless.
Forget it, let it be.
Although Maddox was not happy, he still sat down next to Geoffrey and Minerva sat across fromthem.
"Well, now that we're all seated, let's get started."
As soon as she finished speaking, Geoffrey took a sip of the fish soup and said, "Wow, the fish soupis delicious and flavorful. It's really good."
After making the compliment, he took another sip. Maddox had been staring at the bowl inGeoffrey's hand all the while. He pursed his thin lips tightly and they almost formed a straight line.
If he remembered correctly, that bowl of fish soup Geoffrey was holding... was served by Minerva.
Then, Maddox's lips moved slightly. He had a very strong impulse...
He also wanted to have some fish soup.
However, Minerva... did not serve him any soup even after he had waited for a long time.
As a result, the way Maddox looked at Geoffrey became even more resentful and bitter.
