"Relationship problems?" Upon hearing this, Minerva felt a headache coming on. She started massaging the part between her brows. Recalling what had happened in the past few days, she helplessly asked.
"Well, it's not safe at home these few days. I feel at ease with you accompanying Beanie. By the way, my brother is not suspicious of it, is he?"
"I don't think so. He looks fine. Maybe it's just me... Well, I don't dare to keep an eye on him, so I don't know what's going on with him. But I think that as long as he doesn't ask about you, there should be no problems."
"Okay."
The two of them chatted for a while more before hanging up.
Regarding Vera's excuse to leave home, she was helpless, but she could only accept it.
The next day.
When Minerva woke up, she felt much more relaxed. Sleeping was indeed the best cure for illnesses.
She washed up and changed as usual, then did her makeup and went downstairs.
She made breakfast and packed it up so that she could have it while she was at the office. When she was done preparing, she realized that she had made an extra set.
Minerva stared blankly at the extra set of breakfast in front of her. Suddenly, a handsome face appeared in her mind.
She suddenly came to her senses and shook her head.
No, why would she prepare breakfast for Maddox subconsciously?
She had clearly wanted to reject him, hadn't she?
In the end, Minerva went out with two portions of breakfast. After locking the door, she waited for the elevator. She stared at the elevator display above. For some reason, as she looked at the elevator coming up, she became nervous.
She bit her lower lip and suddenly felt a little annoyed that she was feeling this way.
This was because she was expecting Maddox to walk out of the elevator door.
Realizing that she had such a thought, Minerva's face quickly fell. She wanted to quickly get into the elevator to avoid running into him.
Otherwise, she would not even know how to face Maddox in such a state.
Ding.
The elevator finally opened and she quickly walked in, afraid that Maddox would appear out of nowhere.
She watched as the elevator doors slowly closed. When she realized that she was the only person in the elevator, Minerva heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she felt a sense of loss and disappointment in her heart.
She stretched out her hand to cover her chest as she was really annoyed by this feeling.
She thought that she had already abandoned such thoughts. Even if she couldn't do it, she shouldn't have such feelings for Maddox. From the moment that she had decided to come back, she decided to seal up all her emotions.
But who would have thought...
Man proposes, but God disposes.
The elevator went all the way down smoothly, with no stops in between. She was alone all the way.
After arriving on the 1st floor, Minerva took a deep breath, pulled together her emotions and put on a smile.
It wasn't a big deal. There were two sandwiches. She could give them to Vera later. She didn't have to give it to Maddox.
Ding.
With a smile on her face, Minerva was about to step out of the elevator. The moment she looked out of the elevator, she was stunned.
The man standing outside the elevator looked a little anxious. Although he was breathing heavily, he still appeared handsome as usual. Who else could it be other than Maddox?
He stepped into the elevator and grabbed her wrist as he asked anxiously, "Are you okay?"
Minerva was confused. "Huh, what's the matter?"
Maddox narrowed his eyes and scanned her from head to toe. Only after ensuring that she was safe and sound did he let out a sigh of relief. Then, he pulled her out of the elevator.
