Female Novel
Chapter 817
"Are you sure that you don't have any questions to ask me?” He stared at her like a hunter locking anto his prey. As long as he raised his gun, hewould be able to shoot her any second.
Facing such eyes, Minerva was usually nervous. But on this given day, she was very gloomy and irritable, so she just replied with a sneer.
"You asked me if I have any questions to ask you, but I want to question you first, what should I query? Why should I interrogate you regarding whatyou have done?"
Maddox could not help raising his eyebrows at Minerva's reaction
"Ha, you have a bad temper."
Minerva stood up and opened the door. "I have to work tomorrow.”
The implication was "Get lost quickly, I'm going to rest."
Maddox frowned slightly. She was so anxious to have him leave. It seemed that she didn't want to get to the bottom of the matter.Then, he prabably wouldn't be able to see her taking the initiative to ask him.
She had clearly treated him poorly like this. Based on his haughty personality, he should have gotten up and left
But Maddox had a vague feeling that if he left like this. he would definitely regret it
After considering this, Maddox got up and walked toward her.
Minerva thought that he was about to leave, but did not expect him to stop in front of her. His gaze was fixed on her, and he showed no intention ofleaving.
His aura was strong when approaching her. "If you don't have anything to ask, then why are you angry?”Minerva frowned and retorted, "Not in the slightest."
"Right..."
Suddenly, there was a flirty voice from the corridor.
At first, Minerva did not hear it clearly. But when she heard it clearly, her expression changed drastically. A couple stayed beside her and the both ofthem were very young. Moreover, the two of them were used to going at it every night.
After all, it was only a small suite, so the sound insulation of the suite was not that goodIn addition, the door was open, so the sound from next door was much clearer.
Minerva knew that Maddox must have heard them. She didn't know what she was thinking when she immediately took a step back and slammed thedoor shut.
After the door was shut firmly, the sound, which was particularly clear just now, dissipated in an instant. But after all, since they had heard them, thesound could still be overheard faintly.
If she could hear them, so could Maddox.
Her originally fair face instantly blushed red. Minerva never imagined that something like this would happen. The initial arrogant and domineeringatmosphere between the two of them had now turned into one that was especially awkward
"Well, that..."As soon as she parted her lips, she saw Maddox, who was standing still, slowly walking towards her."Are you sure you aren't angry with me?"
It very well might be due to the psychological effect or something, but Minerva actually felt that Maddox's voice at the moment sounded much darker,with a hint of dryness.
The Maddox at that moment gave her a very dangerous feeling
Minerva instinctively reached out her hand to push him away, but as soon as her hand reached his chest, he grabbed it and pressed it against thedoor.
His heavy body pressed onto her that she could not break free. All she could do was stare at him angrily. “What the hell are you doing?”As soon as she finished speaking, the woman next door seemed to be stimulated, and moaned in one go
Minerva saw Maddox's dark eyes darken further. An emotion that she could not understand rose in her heart. Before she could react, he had alreadylowered his head and caught hold of her lips.
"Uhm."
She was so shocked that her eyes widened. She wanted to push him away with force, but her hand was caught by him and she couldn't move at all.Maddox caught her and kissed her for a while. Then, he retreated, his forehead pressing against hers. his voice was hoarse."I won't do anything. I just want to ask you something.”
Minerva's heart was still fluttering with fear as she looked at him. Her voice was trembling.
"What? What thing?"
"Do you believe what Geoffrey said to you?"
Minerva bit her lower lip and stared stubbornly at him but did not answer.
Maddox did not rush her to answer. He continued in an indifferent voice, "Were you angry because of me?"
This sentence seemed to have stepped on Han Minerva’s bottom line. She immediately argued loudly.
"Who's angry because of you? Don't flatter yourself. Why would I..."
Halfway through her words, he suddenly kissed her and retreated again. "You have such a strong reaction, yet you remain stubborn?"
.." She was about to say something when he kissed her again.
In the end, Minerva was completely knocked out by his overwhelming kisses. She looked at him in a daze and didn't know what to say.Until Maddox whispered into her ear.
"I won't get engaged to anyone else.”
Minerva finally found her consciousness back. She stared blankly at Maddox in disbelief. "Just now you said you won't be engaged to someone elsethen you...”
"Listen up, I'll only say this once." He hald onto the back of her head, and whispered in her ear with his lips touching it.
“Although I'm not sure if you joined the company for me, but observing through your actions, I'm sure that you like me."
"

Did he go just now just to reject the engagement?
"You dare deny that?"
Minerva went speechless.
She turned her face away with a guilty conscience and said weakly, "Fine, you can interpret it however you wish to ."
Minerva clearly liked him, but was unwilling to admit it. Her aggrieved expression made Maddox's heart move. He pinched her chin and narrowed hiseyes as he approached her.novelbin
"Admit it if you like me. Just deny it straight away if you don't."Their eyes met. They were so close that they could barely make out each other's faces. All they could see were the reflections in their eyes.Under his strong gaze. Minerva stammered out, "Yes, I do.
Seeing her admit it. a gentle look finally appeared in Maddox's eyes. Such a scene had not happened ever since he lost his memory.

Although he had no idea why he was taken away by the strange woman in front of him, but he could only think of her face almost every night when heclosed his eyes.
Minerva looked at him uncertainly and asked hesitantly, "You, are you confessing your love to me?"
Maddox's expression darkened when he heard that. He had clearly mentioned that he liked her. But why did she think that he was the one confessingto her?

The moment he decided he was willing to tell her these things, it only meant that he cared about her from the bottam of his heart. And that wasenough for her.
Minerva finally reached out and wrapped her arms around his slender waist. Then, she buried her face in his embrace.
Maddox's body froze.
