Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 1255

In the end, Maddox couldn't stand it anymore. He stepped forward and took Jelly Bean from her arms.

At first, Minerva was reluctant. But since Maddox usually held Jelly Bean in his arms, when he stretched out his hands, she giggled and stretched out her little hands to Maddox.

Minerva, who wanted to keep Jelly Bean to her own, was speechless.

Was this still her child? She didn't want her mommy anymore when she saw her daddy!

Didn't they say a child relied on their mother the most?

Although they were bickering, since Jelly Bean wanted her father to hug her, Minerva naturally did not refuse; she let Maddox do as he pleased.

"You carry her then. I'm going to take a rest."

After saying this, Minerva turned around and was about to leave. But Maddox clasped her wrist.

"You haven't told me what happened."

Maddox held Jelly Bean in one hand with ease.

In the beginning, he did not know what kind of posture to use to hold Jelly Bean, and she would feel uncomfortable even though he was careful. It took a long time for him to be able to hold her casually without her making a fuss.

Now, he could be said to be a super daddy.

As long as Maddox was around, Minerva didn't have to do anything.

After being held back by him, Minerva pursed her red lips and didn't know what to say. After all, it didn't seem to be her style to rake up the past.

If she said it, it would make her look petty.

But she felt pent up if she didn't say it out, so how should she put it? In the end, she only said nothing sulkily.

Hearing that, Maddox laughed helplessly with a deep voice.

"You call this nothing? You gave me your attitude the moment I came back. Not only did you not let me kiss you, but you also wouldn't even let me follow you. I just came back from a meeting; I don't know what happened at home. Did something upsetting happen?"

Minerva frowned and looked at him seriously.

"So you're saying you're already exhausted after the meeting, yet you come back to see me being unreasonable, aren't you?"

Maddox was at a loss for words.

He felt that Minerva was rather unreasonable that day; she kept picking a bone with him. He was shocked for a while before he said, "You know that's not what I meant."

Minerva asked, "Then what do you mean?"

In actuality, if Maddox didn't follow her, Minerva would've naturally readjusted her mood by the evening, yet he had to irritate her when she happened to be morose. Not only that, he even said such words, causing Minerva to lash out. The atmosphere between them became tense all of a sudden.

Maddox obviously knew the atmosphere was tense.

He stared at Minerva, and Jelly Bean seemed to have felt something. She stopped smiling and looked at her parents with her big bright eyes, turning around.

Minerva realized it too. She gathered her thoughts and lowered her eyes.

"Sorry, I'm in a bad mood today."

After that, she was ready to turn around and leave.

How could Maddox let her go just like that?

The two of them had not reached an agreement, and if he let her leave in such a tense situation, she might overthink.

Therefore, he pulled Minerva into his arms with all his strength.

As she hadn't expected it, her forehead bumped against his chest. When she looked up, she happened to meet Jelly Bean's innocent and curious eyes.

"Are you crazy?"

When she came to her senses, Minerva scolded him. "You pulled me just like that. What if I hit Jelly Bean because you didn't control your strength well?"

"I won't."
