"D*mn, what a pity." Maddox laughed and planted a kiss on her lips.
While Minerva was still in a daze, his lips had already left hers.
This man stole a kiss from her again!
She covered her mouth and glared at him.
Moments later, she put her hand down and snorted. She could not be bothered to argue with him over this matter.
"I have something important to tell you."
She then told him about Vera's intention to open a restaurant. He stood where he was and continued to dry his hair, expressionless. He nodded after listening to her explanation.
"Thus, I have to go and support her on the day of the grand opening."
"Are you planning on bringing me along?" Maddox turned around and stared at her intently.
When Minerva saw the look in his eyes, she swallowed nervously.
She initially wasn't planning on bringing him along. After all, he had forgotten all about her. Furthermore, Vera wanted her to come alone. However, she nodded when she saw the look in his eyes.
"I guess so..."
I guess so?
The next day, Quill called Minerva and invited her over for dinner.
She felt that since she had not had dinner with her family ever since returning to the country, she decided to accept his invitation.
However, many thoughts started running through her head. Her brother had not invited her over for dinner before, so why did he suddenly invite her over? It so happened that just the previous night, Vera told her that she was planning on opening a restaurant.
Was there a connection between these two things?
She racked her brains. When she brought it up to Maddox, his expression remained indifferent.
"You'd better stay away from other people's relationships."
She became unhappy as soon as she heard that.
"It's not that I want to be involved with other people's relationship, I just want to know whether these two matters are interconnected. Besides, they are not "other people". Quill is my eldest brother and Vera is my best friend. It's a good thing if they can become a couple."
He looked up and fixed his eyes on her face.
All of a sudden, his cold eyes became fiery. He was staring at her with burning eyes.
"You, why are you looking at me like this?"
He walked over and trapped her between his arms.
"If your brother has feelings for her, he will act on his own. If he doesn't, no matter how hard others push him, he will be indifferent."
She responded, "You're talking as if you've been through it before."
She teased him and lowered her head.
However, just as she lowered her head, Maddox gently pinched her by the chin. Then, she raised her head as he pinched her.
"Why haven't I? Back when I went on a blind date, weren't you there watching me?"
Minerva was a little stunned at first. After recalling for a long while, she suddenly thought of something and opened her eyes wide in shock.
"You, you... remember?"
There was a faint smile in his eyes.
"I can remember bits and pieces." "Then why didn't you tell me?"
Tell her? His eyes became darker. "I wanted to give you a surprise."
In fact, he wasn't fully recovered and he still couldn't remember a lot of things. What's more, his memories were jumbled up. He was afraid that she would ask him and worry about him.
She was pregnant now. He did not want her to worry about him too much.
