Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 696

The meeting lasted for a long time. When it was finally over, everyone packed up and was ready to leave the conference room.

Sam held it in for several hours. From time to time, he glanced at Maddox's side profile and wanted to whisper into his ears. He wanted to tell him that Mrs. Yardley was waiting in his office.

However, thinking that Minerva told him not to tell him that she was here, Sam resisted the urge to do so.

Therefore, as soon as the meeting ended, Sam walked up to Maddox and said in a low voice.

"Mr. Yardley."

Maddox's focus was still on the documents.

His thin lips moved slightly, "Speak."

"Mrs. Yardley..."

Upon hearing these words, Maddox paused and suddenly raised his head to look at him.

This sharp gaze gave Sam chills down his spine, and he unconsciously took a step back. "Sir..."

"What are you trying to say?"

Maddox stared at him. He clearly heard Sam say "Mrs. Yardley" earlier.

He didn't think that he heard him wrongly.

"Sir, I just want to tell you that Mrs. Yardley is here, and she is waiting for you in the office."

As soon as he finished his words, Maddox got up in front of him. Without packing up, he went straight out of the conference room.

"What the hell! No wonder Minerva didn't let me tell him. Mr. Yardley is so crazy!"

Sam quickly caught up with him, "Mr. Yardley."

Maddox stopped, somewhat impatient. "Is there anything else?"

"I just want to tell you that Mrs. Yardley arrived a few hours ago, but she told me not to tell you so that you could concentrate on your meeting."

Maddox couldn't help but frown initially, but it didn't take long for him to calm down. He seemed to have thought of something as the tip of his tongue pressed against the teeth, and his pupils deepened.

"I see. Go and tidy up the conference room."

After that, he left the meeting room.

Sam went to tidy the room up. After all, he was Maddox's assistant.

Maddox stomped back to the office. When he opened the door, he realized that the room was empty. Where was Minerva?

He looked around and found that the door of the lounge was closed.

Thus, he walked over to the door. When he reached the door of the lounge, Maddox subconsciously slowed down.

When he opened the door, he saw the figure that he had been missing.

Minerva was lying on the bed in the lounge. Her black hair was a mess, probably because she was asleep. She had no makeup on, and the quilt only covered half of her.

He stared at her for a while. Then, he walked over lightly and bent down to cover her with the quilt.

After covering her with the quilt, he couldn't stand up no matter how hard he tried. He attentively stared at the gorgeous woman, recalling what Sam said to him before. He couldn't help but reach out his hand and gently rubbed her cheek.

"Silly, why are you always looking out for me? Just tell me when you come. You have been lying here alone for so long, aren't you silly?"

Maddox knew he was obviously talking to himself. After all, she was fast asleep right now, and she couldn't hear what he was saying.

However, who would have thought that Minerva, who was initially asleep in the next second, would suddenly change her expression? She looked like she was in pain, and her delicate brows were tightly knitted together.

Maddox noticed that something was wrong. When he took a closer look, her forehead was covered in beads of sweat.

What was going on?
