Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 697

Minerva accepted the menu since it was already presented to her. She took the phone and had a look. Initially, she didn't have much of an appetite. However, while she was looking at the menu, she suddenly felt a craving for many things on the menu.

As such, she ordered quite a lot of food. When she was finally done ordering, she realized that she ordered way too much food. She was too embarrassed to return the phone to him.

"That's all."

She was still in his embrace. As such, Maddox saw everything when she was placing the order. He could not help but chuckle when he saw her handing the phone back to him.

"Is that enough?"

Upon hearing this, she felt warm in her ears. She gritted her teeth and said, "Do you take me for a pig? I can't eat that much."

He chuckled softly. He tapped his fingers on the screen and ordered a few more items. Then, he waited for the delivery man to send over the food.

After doing this, she continued to nestle in Maddox's embrace.

"Are you done with your meeting?"

He remembered that she had been waiting for him here for quite some time now when she brought up the meeting. He pursed his lips and said, "Next time, just come straight to me. You don't have to wait for me."

She answered, "Even if you're in the middle of a meeting? Wouldn't I be interrupting the meeting..."

Halfway through her words, he suddenly lowered his head and breathed into her ear, "Nothing is more important than you."

Maddox...

He was so much better at sweet-talking ever since the proposal.

Although he said she could, she wouldn't go and disturb him while he was working.

She didn't need anyone to be around her 24/7. She wasn't the kind of person who needed him to stop whatever he was doing and immediately accompany her.

She was not that demanding.

There should always be room for compromise in love.

She and Maddox took a lot to get back together. She had to appreciate him.

The order arrived in a blink of an eye. It didn't take long for Sam to carry their meals upstairs into the office. Sam knocked on the door of the lounge, "Young Master Yardley, your meal is here. I'll put it on the table."

"Alright."

Maddox answered in a deep voice. Then, he got up with Minerva in his arms.

"Why are you carrying me? It's such a short distance. I can walk on my own."

He smirked helplessly, "You slept too well. It'd be better if I carried you over myself. Otherwise, I wouldn't bear to see you fall."

She was speechless.

She was not going to fall for no reason.

"If you want to carry me, just say it. There's no need to find such a lame excuse," she muttered in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, he suddenly stopped and stared at her. She felt a little embarrassed as she avoided his sharp gaze, "What are you waiting for? Aren't we going to eat?"

"You just said..."

"I didn't say anything."

She lowered her eyes and did not dare to look at him again. Then, she heard him chuckle softly. He seemed to let her get away with it and walked outside.

He was a neat freak, so the office was spotless. When she headed out, she saw two big bags left on the table. She looked around and realized there was no place to eat. Hence, she said, "Why don't we eat it in the lounge? You're a neat freak so I don't think we should eat in your office."
