After saying that, Maddox couldn't help but look at her and raise his eyebrows.
A moment later, his thin lips curved into a nice angle and he said in a low and hoarse voice, "You've become much smarter than I imagined."
Minerva rolled her eyes, thinking that she had always been smart.
Minerva gritted her teeth and pursed her lips. She looked back at him angrily and said, "So? She must have been good enough for Doctor Stark to like her. Furthermore, she couldn't have casually introduced her to you; it must be because her mother is a friend of Doctor Stark. If that's the case, are you still going to send her to court?"
"Definitely," Maddox answered without hesitation.
Minerva's pink lips parted. Suddenly, she didn't know what to say.
She didn't expect him to be so determined.
"But..." Maddox's gaze suddenly tightened on her as he said meaningfully, "Minerva, we haven't divorced yet, so you don't have to call Doctor Stark so unfamiliarly. She's my aunt, so of course... She's your aunt too."
"Who said that?" Minerva stood up and stepped away from him. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at him disdainfully. "You're not the only one who can decide this. Have you even told your aunt?"
"No," Maddox shook his head.
Minerva couldn't help but widen her eyes. "Nothing? Then what happens when your aunt eventually finds out?"
"What's wrong?" Maddox raised his eyebrows slightly. "Didn't you say that she isn't your aunt? Then why do you care about my aunt so much? What does it have to do with you, whether or not she finds out?"
Minerva didn't know how to refute.
A hint of amusement shone in Maddox's eyes. Other than that smile, he also looked at her with deep affection. It was as if he would not mind her no matter what she said.
"What are you thinking about?" Minerva asked as she bit down on her lower lip. "Do you think I'm concerned about you? Then you're thinking too much. This is my fault. I just don't want to get you into trouble."
Maddox watched her while she was explaining.
He remained silent.
Minerva suddenly stopped talking and did not continue. Judging from Maddox's expression, it seemed like he would not believe her no matter what she said.
Thinking of this, Minerva could only say, "In short, as someone who was almost a victim this time, I would suggest that you tell this to your aunt. This is just my suggestion. Of course, it's up to you whether or not you want to do it."
"Since my wife has already given the order, how can I not listen?" Maddox's lips were still curved into a faint smile. He was extremely annoying to her.
Minerva closed her eyes and tried her best to suppress the anger in her body. After forcing a smile at Maddox, she turned away and ignored him.
Maddox had promised Minerva to tell Abigail about this...
However, he refused to do so in his heart. After all... He was already an adult and he had the ability to deal with such things. Besides, Abigail had forced him to go on the blind date in the first place. He had not been willing to at all.
Now this woman not only disturbed him but had also almost hurt the woman he loved most.
What she did was enough for him to treat her that way.
Thinking of this, Maddox smiled coldly.
He was prepared to not tell Abigail about it. He wanted to deal with it himself.
He wanted to protect his woman.
However... Although Maddox didn't tell Abigail, it didn't mean that she wouldn't learn about it herself.
After Abigail returned to San Novia, she thought that Janice had seemed to be very kind to Maddox. Was there any possibility that her fiery passion could not melt his ice cold heart?
