Female Novel
Chapter 867
Minerva also noticed the change
When Abigail mentioned Jarold, not only had the warmth in her eyes disappeared, but her aura turned cold too.If the change of her temperament was not drastic, Minerva would not be able to tell from her looks.
Minerva was suddenly curious.
Just what kind of grudge did Master Collins have with Aurora and Abigail back then? Why did the two sisters leave an old man behind without anycare?
And after so many years, they still haven't forgave Master Collins.
Abigail's grief was still obvious.
However, no matter how curious she was, she was not in any position to ask about it as she was their junior.It doesn't sound like a simple matter. It had probably hurt Abigail deeply.
Otherwise, she would not have hesitated for a long time before calling her and agreeing to come over.
With this thought in mind, she said softly, "I'm very grateful that you're willing to come over this time. If there's anything too complicated for you, do tellme. I will never force you to do anything.”
After all, this was her matter, but she couldn't find a solution therefore she seeked for Abigail's help.
Upon hearing this, Abigail smiled and the warmth in her eyes returned a little. She looked at Minerva and couldn't help but gently stroke the back ofher head.
She said, "My dear girl, thank you for thinking about me, but I'm fine. Now that I'm here, some matters... should be solved."Escaping was not the best solution.
She wanted to see whatJarold still had up his sleeves and when he would stop.
Suddenly Abigail thought of something and said, "I heard... you were pregnant?"
Upon hearing this, Minerva's expression changed slightly. She quickly nodded and said, "Maddox still doesn't know about this.”“Even if this brat knew, he would have completely forgotten about it. He really doesn’t have a heart,” Abigail replied
"I don't blame him. After all, under those circumstances... it's already a blessing for him to be able to survive," Minerva said.
"You are quite good at finding excuses for him. If my man was like this, I would definitely give him a lesson that he'll never forget!"Minerva remained silent.
Unexpectedly, Abigail was actually quite doughty.
The journey from the exit to their car was short, so they reached relatively quickly. As the distance between them and Maddox grew closer, theystopped discussing him. Instead, they simply decided on what to eat.
After getting in the car, Minerva noticed that Maddox had not touched the bread at all. That meant he hadn't eaten a single thing since he got off work,let alone drink.
All of a sudden, Minerva couldn't describe how she felt.
He didn't complain at all and even gave her his coat.
Maddox drove and looked at Abigail from the corner of his eyes. "Auntie Stark, what would you like to eat?” He asked.
Since Minerva called her Auntie Stark, Maddox felt that it was only appropriate for him to do the same.
Abigail became a little absent- minded when Maddox called her Auntie Stark. After a long while, she came to her senses and said, “I'm okay withanything. Ask Minerva."
Minerva, who was sitting in the passenger seat also replied. “I'm okay with anything too. You decide."
Maddox didn't say anything. Soon. the car stopped in front of a hotel. He unfastened his seat belt and said, "This hotel belongs to the Collins family.There are a variety of choices here. You can eat whatever you like."
Minerva sighed as she thought about his attentiveness while unfastening her seat belt.
After getting out of the car, Abigail stood next to it and raised her head, staring at the magnificent hotel in front of her.
She stared at it for a long time, her expression was cold.
“Auntie Stark?” Minerva called her. When Abigail came to her senses, the coldness in her eyes disappeared, and a warm smile returned to her faceShe said, "I was just looking at the outer appearance of this hotel. Let's go."
It's been many years since she came back to this place. The people they met along the way were all unfamiliar faces, so they didn't recognize her.It turned out that time could really change everything, it looked the same but so different at

This was a hotel, a place to eat as well as to stay. It was only after hearing his words that Minerva suddenly remembered.That's right. This hotel belonged to the Collins family. If Abigail were to stay here, would she feel stressed out?Thinking this, she looked up at Abigail and asked, "Auntie Stark?"
Abigail could naturally tell what she was thinking. She smiled faintly and said, "Alright, I'm tired after a whole day's journey. Let's get a room upstairsand have a rest.”

Abigail said, "Thank you. You two must be tired. Go back and rest early."
Then Abigail was led away by the hotel manager.
Minerva followed Maddox downstairs. Her phone vibrated, and she waited for Maddox to go fetch his car before taking her phone out.Abigail had sent her a message.
Minerva glanced at the location of the car and took the initiative to call her.
“Auntie Stark."
"Yes," Abigail replied, "There shouldn't be any movements from Jarold’s side, right? We'll sit back and watch. If there are any changes, you'll have toinform me immediately."
Minerva agreed"All right."
After hanging up, Minerva put away her phone. She focused on walking to the intersection and waited for Maddox there.

Soon, Maddox returned and Minerva got into the car.
It was quiet inside the car. Judging from the direction, they were heading to the residence that Maddox had previously arranged for her.Minerva recalled his attitude towards Abigail earlier. It seemed that seeing her had jogged his memory, so she glanced at him secretly.However, Maddox pursed his lips and looked at her as well.
It was a meaningful look and Minerva's heart skipped a beat when she saw it.
Why was he looking at her with such an expression? Did he notice something and feel that she was scheming against him?
As a result, the look in Minerva's eyes became somewhat guilty. She stammered, "What... is it?”
A hint of a smile appeared in Maddox's dark eyes
"Actually, you don't have to do this." He said
"Ah?" Minerva couldn't understand what he was implying.novelbin
"If this happens again, just tell me we are meeting your elders. I will go with you." He continued
Minerva was speechless.
All of a sudden, she found herself lost for words.
Because Maddox thought that Abigail was her aunt, so he treated this as meeting her elders?
"And, if you told me in advance, I could do better."
He added.
