Female Novel
Chapter 819
After Geoffrey hung up the phone, his face, which had been smiling cheekily, became pale, and his eyes were gloomy.Standing in front of the French window, Geoffrey sneered suddenly, not knowing what he was thinking.
He felt that he would never forget that scene in his life.
The Collins family and the Jules family were on very good terms with the Dormer family.
The Collins family and the Dormer family had wanted a marriage alliance when they were young. However, due to the failure of the marriage alliance,plus an accident which occurred that resulted in Master Collins being the last of the Collins family. The Master Collins at that time had nevermentioned this matter to anyone.
The three families were on good terms, so naturally they would have a close relationship with each other.
Geoffrey was the only child while the Dormer family had Monica and Zaydon. Geoffrey was about the same age as Monica, hence they often playedtogether when they were little
Like everyone else, in the past, he also liked the beautiful, intelligent Monica, who had all her merits.
He had many fantasies about Monica, who was out of his reach. He even thought that it would be great if there was a marriage alliance between thetwo families.
He was going to tell his grandfather to propose a marriage alliance to the Dormer family after she became an adult. If she was willing. he could takegood care of her all his life.
But at this moment, he happened to see a cruel scene.
That day, he was going to go to the Dormer family to invite Monica out. Because he was anxious about waiting outside, he went inside to find her.Who would have thought that he would hear that conversation?
"Miss, you said that Geoffrey often comes to you. Does he like you?"It was the voice of a maid asking MonicaAt that time, Geoffrey stopped in his tracks. He was so nervous that he didn't even dare to make a sound, his entire body leaned against the wall.
He really liked Monica, but he didn't know what her thoughts were. He only thought that since she so willingly accepted his gifts all the time, shewould gladly accept being in a relationship with him.
Even if she didn't like him, but... she probably didn’t have a bad impression of him.“Geoffrey?” Monica sneered. “He likes me? How is that possible?"
The maid said, "Anyway, I feel that the way he looks at you is different. even the way he treats you differently too. You're so beautiful, he must likeyou."
"Hey, stop that. I can’t bear the responsibility of him liking me. Besides. I don't see how he treats me specially. Also, if someone who is as ignorantand incompetent like him likes me, it's like a toad wishing to swim with a swan, he should look into the mirror and see what kind of person he is.”
Geoffrey, hiding by the side, heard these words, and his face expression instantly changed.
He did not expect that Monica, who had always been beautiful and dignified, would actually say such awful words. Moreover, these unpleasantrieswere aimed at him.
He felt that his heart was broken at that moment, and all his fantasies about her collapsed
"You're right, Miss. How can a toad like Geoffrey be a good match for you? He’s coming here today. Would you like to let him go back?”
Monica didn't mind and waved her hand. "Forget it. If he likes to wait. let him wait. This feeling of being surrounded by men doesn't seem bad either.”Geoffrey went speechless.
She clearly had such a bad impression of him, but she still did not refuse him directly.
Geoffrey left quietly and didn't look for Monica after he went back. That year... he was not of age and had begun to learn bad things. As long as a girlexpressed her love to him, he would date her.
It was awesome as long as both parties were willingHe also knew that in this world, it was difficult to be truly in love with each other, or to place the significant other in one's heart.He couldn't believe that his love for her was trampled upon and without care.
After Geoffrey was badly influenced, Monica was even more scornful of him. Every time she looked at him, her eyes were full of disgust, but she stillkept her classy appearance, smiled at him, and pretended to have a good relationship with him.
Geoffrey had seen her true self, so the more she pretended, the more disgusted he was.
Now, she wanted to be engaged toCollins? It was a pity that Collinswouldn't spare aglance ather. =>Indeed, every dog has its day. Thehigh and mighty Miss Dormer fadactuatly been looked down upon onedayras well. Content belongs toNovelDrama.Org 6

Then he disappeared
Minerva stood rooted to the spot in a daze when she saw the cold expression on his face.
Did he forget what had happened last night? Otherwise, how could he be so cold to her?
Or, what happened last night was just a fantasy?
With this thought in mind, Minerva went to the pantry to make coffee and then went to the office.
"Here's your coffee." She reminded him in a low voice and then put it on the table. After that, she stood at the side and stared at Maddox.The night before... it couldn't have been her illusion, right? Minerva thought about it as she stared at him
Perhaps it was because her gaze was too intense, Maddox looked up at her and said, "Is there anything else?""Ah? No, nothing.” Minerva shook her head. Then, she turned around and walked outside
She bit her lower lip and thought, "Was it really a dream last night? Maddox didn't actually come to see me?"
But, how could it be so real?
What she didn't know was that Maddox stared at her back for a while before he looked away and continued his work
Because of Linda’s absence, Minerva handled all the work. Just in the morning, she went to office to deliver reports many times. Maddox's expressionwas always cold and expressionless.
It was not until she got off work that Minerva felt that her legs were almost broken. She was paralyzed on the sofa and didn't want to move anymore.However, at this time, the phone on the desk rang.
Minerva glanced at the clock. It was obvious that she had already knocked off work.
In the end, she dragged her tired body to pick up the phone.
"Hello?"
"Come to my office."
Clatter—
Minerva did not have any doubts. After hanging up the phone, she walked towards Maddox's office.“President?”
Maddox looked up and his deep gaze fell on her face.
"Come here."
Minerva did not suspect anything. She thought that he had something to tell her. Even though she had already knocked off work, her current identitywas still that of a secretary.
Therefore, Minerva walked straight to him. Just as she was about to ask him what he wanted, Maddox suddenly grabbed her fair wrist and pulled herinto his arms.
