After all, Benedict had met Beanie in the supermarket back then.
Judging by how smart Benedict was, how could he not figure it out? He even looked into her before.
Hence, it was impossible for him to not know about it.
"Oh?" Maddox raised his eyebrows. He suddenly forced out a rueful smile. Instead, it gave people a feeling of bone- chilling coldness.
Minerva could feel that something was off about his smile. She was panicking and she held onto his sleeve.
"But it's definitely not what you think. I'm not the one who told him about this. He..."
"It doesn't matter how he knew it. He still knew it before me. But you... You have been hiding this from me, hoping that I, the biological father, won't find out about this right?"
"I..." She was stumped by his words, and there was no way she could refute him.
He squinted his eyes; his gaze was piercing and the vibe he was giving off was cold.
"Am I right?"
Minerva lowered her eyes. "It was my plan initially, but it's different now. I..."
"That's enough."
Maddox interrupted her, but he wasn't mad. His voice sounded calm, but the calmer he sounded, the more frightened she was.
"Are you disappointed in me and trying to pick a fight with me?"
He was silent.
"Do you want to cut off all ties with me?"
Minerva asked again. He stared at her, "I'm still thinking about it."
What he said made her heart sink a little. Her lips suddenly turned a little paler. "What do you mean by you're still thinking about it?"
Did it mean that he was really thinking about it?
Minerva tightly grasped the sleeves of his jacket and his sleeves started to crease, "What are you trying to say now? What do you mean you're still thinking about it? You're not happy now because he turned out to be your son?"
Maddox stood frozen in place. He did not move an inch.
She stared at him as her grip tightened. "Tell me, have you ever thought about breaking up with me?"
As soon she mentioned break up, his gaze moved. He stared at the gorgeous face in front of him. Her clear eyes were filled with anxiety as if a needle pierced right through his chest.
He had never thought about breaking up.
Even when he found out that she was lying to him, he never thought of breaking up with her. This woman in front of him... was the woman of his dreams. He dreamt of her for five whole years.
It was not easy for him to finally get her. Why would he break up with her?
But... now... His heart was in a mess.
Maddox lowered his head and gradually pushed away from the petite hands that were clutching his sleeves.
She was unhappy. She stared at him with wide eyes and refused to let go of his sleeve. He looked up at her and saw tears welled up in her eyes.
He felt a little distressed, but at this moment, his anger overpowered his distress. Finally, he sighed and said, "Let go of me."
"I don't want to/ Minerva's eyes were filled with tears. "If I let go, are you going to dump me?"
She asked carefully. Maddox stared at her and suddenly said with a sneer, "Even you fear losing me?"
Her eyes were wide open. Tears were welling up in her eyes, but she did not shed a tear.
Her eyes were gorgeous. At this moment, the tears in her eyes were glimmering.
She shook her head, "Please don't be mad, okay? It's really not what it looks like."
It wasn't easy for them to finally get together. Were they really going to separate because of this?
Recently, Maddox was the one sticking to her and looking for her. He seemed like the desperate one.
