On the same day, Maddox drove straight to Minerva's neighborhood after getting off work.
He couldn't find the neighborhood at first, thus Sam accompanied him and led the way. Maddox's tall and strong body figure attracted the attention of a few single women. As soon as they entered the elevator, two girls followed as well.
However, Sam and Maddox kept talking to each other as if they didn't notice the two girls at all.
"Sir, if you start living here, do you want to hire a new housekeeper or..."
Maddox pursed his lips and interrupted coldly, "Don't you know my habits?"
"Well, what I mean is... If you don't hire one, won't you be able to have your meals at Young Madam's?"
Maddox was speechless.
He raised his eyes and looked up at Sam all of a sudden.
"Excuse me, are you staying here?" Suddenly, the two girls who initially didn't impose any sense of presence came over to ask Maddox.
Maddox didn't answer.
It was silent for a few seconds in the elevator and no one answered.
The two girls looked a little embarrassed as Maddox remained expressionless.
The girl looked at his handsome face and was not willing to give up. She clenched her fists tightly and continued, "I'm also staying here. Which floor do you stay on? If you have time, would you like to join me for..."
"Get lost."
The girl paused for a moment and only did she know that Maddox had already turned his head around. His eagle-like eyes were looking at her indifferently, and there was not a hint of warmth present in them at all.
Realizing that he was directing the harsh words at her, the girl's face instantly paled. At the same time, the elevator's doors opened, and the girl and her friend turned around and rushed out.
Ding—
The elevator's doors closed again and continued to move upwards slowly. Sam clenched his fingers, forming a fist and placed it against his lips. He coughed softly and spoke slowly, "Sir, you will offend the neighbors if you do this."
Maddox did not reply as he showed a face of extreme displeasure.
Sam sighed. After so many years, only Minerva the apple of Maddox's eyes.
If other girls wanted to talk to him, he wouldn't even spare them a glance.
Therefore, Sam had even thought that if Minerva was to never forgive Maddox, he would remain... single for the rest of his life.
"So what if I offended them? You didn't even manage to accomplish the task that I gave you and now you want me to put up with them?" Maddox laughed coldly and swept his sharp gaze at him.
Sam suddenly felt shivers along his spine. This was exactly why Maddox had given the instruction to drive residents out in the first place.
There were always people who would disturb him and Maddox hated it.
However, this place didn't belong to them. Even if it did, it was impossible to drive the residents here away.
Ding-
The elevator's door opened again, and Sam hurried out.
"We are here."
Maddox glanced at the elevator's floor indicator.
It was the 18th floor.
He stepped out with his straight legs and noticed that Sam was standing at a door. "Young Madam lives here and your place will be just the opposite."
Maddox pursed his lips. With one hand in his pocket, he looked at Minerva's entrance from the corner of his eyes. His thin lips slowly curled into a smile.
