Since Maddox asked her to wait, Minerva couldn't leave now and let him come back for nothing, right?
Moreover, Minerva didn't even know where she was.
After thinking for a while, she got up and walked out of the house, intending to explore the environment and see where she was.
When she reached the living room, Minerva discovered a huge balcony in the living room. The curtains were half drawn.
She stretched and opened the curtains.
The sun was bright that day. She wondered how long it would take for Maddox to get there.
Minerva walked to the balcony and looked around. The more she looked at it, the more familiar it became. There were oak trees at the entrance of the estate and a familiar pebble path.
It... looked like her neighbourhood.
And this location...
Ten seconds later, Minerva got off the balcony and hurried to the door.
After opening the door, Minerva stared at her own door blankly.
Sure enough...
It turned out that Maddox brought her to the house opposite hers after she fell asleep the night before.
Maddox had been living here for a long time.
All of a sudden, Minerva's heart was filled with inexplicable emotion. She could not speak.
From what she knew, this house was vacant when she bought her house across the street. There was no way their houses were facing each other coincidentally.
As such, Maddox might have bought the house later on.
As for why he wanted to buy it, she already knew.
Minerva closed her eyes, shut the door behind her and returned to the room.
Maddox arrived very quickly. When she heard the sound of the door, she raised her head and looked over.
His hair and clothes were a little messy, and there was even some sweat on his forehead. Minerva looked at the time. It had only been ten minutes since she hung up the phone.
Why was he in such a hurry?
Minerva stood up. Then, Maddox walked over and put his arms around her waist.
"It's my fault. Are you starving?"
"Er... Not really." She shook her head. "How did you get here so quickly? Did you speed?"
His thin lips curled up, "Are you worried about me?"
She looked away as she heard him say, "Don't worry. I controlled myself. After all, I still need to stay alive to take you to lunch."
Upon hearing this, Minerva couldn't help but glare at him, "Who needs you to take me to lunch? I can take care of myself. Besides... It's not like I'm unfamiliar with the area."
"I assume you've gone out to have a look."
She nodded, "I was waiting for you, so I went out to the balcony. That's how I figured out."
He leaned against her neck. When he saw her changing into the clothes he prepared for her, his eyes were smiling.
"Do you like it?"
"What?" She raised her head in shock. She didn't know what he meant.
"The clothes," Maddox lowered his head and looked at her tenderly, "I picked all of them out myself."
"You picked them out yourself?" She nearly blurted out. There were a lot of clothes in there. How could he have that much time to pick them out? Minerva thought about how well- fitted the clothes were... He was probably telling the truth.
Hence, she blinked and gave him a halfhearted compliment.
"It's okay. I kinda like them."
"Let me take a look..." He lowered his voice and touched her collar, trying to unbutton her shirt.
