It was Geoffrey, the man who dragged her to the bar the previous night and even deceived her.
When she thought of how she had been put in a difficult position by Uriah and how he had stood aside and watched, Minerva was furious. She immediately turned around and walked away.
"Hey, don't go." Geoffrey quickly caught up with her and stopped her with a pleasant smile on his face. "You're not angry with me because of what happened last night, are you?"
She was stunned.
He had done such a terrible thing. Yet, he made it sound as if something had happened between the two of them.
She frowned and berated him when she noticed the gazes around her, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Only then did he realize that everyone was looking at them. He coughed slightly and lowered his voice.
"I know that I was wrong, so I took this opportunity to come over and apologize to you," he said.
She pursed her pink lips and uttered coldly, "I don't
need it."
Then, she moved straight past Geoffrey and walked toward the canteen.
At this moment, a petite figure ran towards her. As she ran, she waved her arms and called out, "Minerva, wait for me."
Geoffrey heard her voice, and it seemed to be a little familiar. Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw a figure walking towards his direction, getting closer and closer.
"Hey, isn't this the little beauty I met in the elevator that day?" He thought.
"Minerva." Lolita ran over, and she immediately intimately held her hand.
Minerva was a little helpless. She realized that Lolita was rather friendly. She did not like Lolita, but... she did not hate her actions. Hence, she decided to let her do as she pleased.
Therefore, she nodded at her and said, "Well, let's go to eat."
"Okay," Lolita answered excitedly. She hadn't noticed Geoffrey yet.
Geoffrey was a bit disappointed. He was so handsome that he was the center of attention wherever he went, but he didn't expect that the two women in front of him would just ignore him.
One of them couldn't even see him. He was like an invisible man beside them.
He was a little depressed but soon recovered his energy. He looked at Lolita and waved at her. "Hey, little beauty, we meet again."
It was only then that she noticed a person was standing next to Minerva. She felt that he seemed a little familiar at first glance. Geoffrey's appearance was rather flirty and handsome. Regardless of whether he opened his mouth to speak, his long, narrow, and smiling eyes gave one a particular sense of playfulness.
What's more, he had flirted with Lolita in the elevator.
Therefore, after she recognized him, her face immediately darkened a little.
As if she didn't see Geoffrey, nor did she hear him greet her, she withdrew her gaze.
Geoffrey was caught off guard.
"Sh*t, what's up with these two women?" He thought.
Minerva and Lolita were heading in the direction of the cafeteria. He recalled the incident that happened the previous night and felt that if he didn't get her forgiveness that day, his days in the future would be even more miserable.
Thinking of this, he quickly followed Minerva.
"My dear future Mrs. Sebastian, please don't be angry. I really didn't mean it last night, and I didn't lie to you, right?" He defended himself.
Minerva, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stopped in her tracks. She frowned and stood where she was.
"Future Mrs. Sebastian?"
