She had tried her best to calm herself down. On the surface, she looked like she knew nothing at all.But Geoffrey spoke so directly. Minerva was a woman after all; her face was flushed red to the ears.
However, the simple- minded Geoffrey did not notice Minerva’s embarrassment at all. He wanted to remind her of something more, but she directlyinterrupted him, "Well, I really appreciate your help tonight, Geoffrey. Go and rest now.”
After that. she pushed Geoffrey out of the door and slammed it shut.Geoffrey almost got hit by the door. Minerva was already out of sight when he wanted to say something more. He touched his head with sorrow.Why do all of them value their love more than their friends?
Geoffrey complained as he entered the elevator. He then recalled Minerva’s awkward situation and realized what he had just said. "Thank heavensSebastian wasn't there, otherwise I would've been killed." He thought to himself.
After Minerva closed the door, she leaned against it for a while before walking back to the bathroom
Minerva's panic grew with every step she took.
She didn't know what was going on with herself just now. After figuring out Maddox's situation, she asked Geoffrey to leave.
Thinking back now, her ears grew red and warm.
Just as Minerva pushed open the door and wondered what to do with Maddox, she heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom.
Minerva stopped in her tracks. The next second, she dashed into the bathroom. Maddox, who had been motionless, was drenching himself in coldwater.
It was winter and the temperature was near zero. Although the radiator was on, the way he drenched himself had turned his face ghostly pale and hislips purple.
"What are you doing?” Minerva asked.
Minerva rushed over and turned off the water, then took a bath towel from the shelf and draped it over Maddox's body to dry it.
Probably because Maddox had drenched himself in cold water, Minerva felt that his eyelashes were almost frozen the moment he opened his eyes.She felt a pain in her heart, and her eyes became red
By this time, Maddox's reasoning was nearly gone. He opened his eyes and saw Minerva standing in front of him with red eyes. Her fair face wasgorgeous, and her red lips were as attractive as freshly plucked fruits.
Something had taken over his reasoning and mentality.The next second, Maddox reached out and grabbed hold of the back of Minerva's head. He bent down and kissed Minerva's lips fiercely.Cold.
That was all she felt the moment he leaned close to her. She didn't know how long he had been drenched in cold water for his body to become socold.
Minerva couldn't help but shiver. Her hand subconsciously tried te push him away. The person hugging her hugged her tightly in the next second as ifher action provoked him.
He exerted a lot of force. From the moment she felt his bone-chilling kiss to now, Minerva began to feel like she was on fire.
He began to emit endless heat from his body.
It's probably the drug doing its thing.
Minerva didn't forget she was pregnant; if she didn't stop him now, what happened after that would be out of her control.
As she thought about this, Minerva pushed him away forcefully. At the same time, she said hurriedly, "Calm down.”
However, her voice at that moment was like a catalyst. It made Maddox's action more intense.
There was no way for Minerva to escape. But to her surprise, Maddox pushed her away, turned around, and said coldly, "Get out."His voice was terribly hoarse like his throat had been burned by strong liquor; hoarse but sexy.
Minerva felt as if an ant was biting her heart; it tickled.
If it weren't for the fact that she was pregnant, she wouldn't hesitate for a second considering Maddox's current state.
However, if there was no other way, she was still willing to do it
He was already like this, why did he suddenly push her away and asked her to leave?
Was he trying to restrain himself?
Thinking of this, Minerva bit her lower lip and approached him. She reached out her hand to pull at his already soaked sleeve and said, “That...”
However, just as her hand touched him, he suddenly turned around and grabbed her fair wrist, pressed her against the cold wall, and warned her in acold voice
"You also felt how strong the drug is just now. If you don't leave now..." He narrowed his eyes; the sharp gaze showed a hint of desire.
Minerva nervously bit her lip.
