Everyone was almost scared out of their wits by her words!
Several tall men in suits all looked at Minerva in disbelief, and their faces turned pale one by one.
This girl really had the guts to ask for it. She was asking for such a huge sum of money, it seemed as if Master Collins would faint from anger.
Everyone looked at Master Collins.
As expected, Jarold was greatly angered. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot at this very moment. He pointed angrily at her, "What did you say? Say it again?"
Minerva's red lips curved up slightly as she smiled sweetly. "What's wrong, Grandpa? It was you who said just now that I could ask for anything I wanted, or is it because Sebastian is no match for the Collins Family in your eyes? If that's the case, then I won't be able to leave him. After all, even if you really were to give me the Collins Family, I wouldn't leave him."
These words shocked Jarold. He didn't expect her to say that.
Was it true? Was it because she knew that he wouldn't agree, in which she found the confidence
to say so?
"Humph." Jarold laughed coldly. "No matter what, it's fine if you want or don't want it. I'll never agree to such a ridiculous request. If you think this isn't enough money, I'll give you more money, and then you'll leave!"
Minerva stayed rooted to the spot and did not move.
After explaining to him for so long, she suddenly felt a little tired.
She did not know when Maddox would come, and because this was his grandfather, she could not go too far. She was really starting to get tired if this were to continue. Furthermore, it was obvious that he was serious, with no intention of playing around with her.
Minerva sighed in her heart and said seriously, "Master Collins, I really can't leave him, no matter what you give me."
When he saw her like this, Jarold squinted his eyes, a sharp glint in his eyes. He snorted coldly, "I didn't think that you'd find this place."
Upon hearing this, Minerva was shocked. She couldn't help but raise her head to look at Jarold's eyes.
Was he going to have a showdown with her? No more playing with her?
If that was the case, she would say whatever she wanted to say.
However, just as Minerva's lips moved, a cold male voice sounded from outside the door.
"Grandpa, Why are you making things difficult for her?"
This familiar and deep voice...
Minerva's heart skipped a beat of joy. She turned around suddenly and looked towards the source of the voice.
Maddox, dressed in a simple suit, stood at the door of the secretary's office. He was surrounded by a cold aura. He looked coldly at the scene in the secretary's office and then strode towards Minerva.
Minerva was about to call him when he grabbed Minerva's wrist and pulled her behind him.
"It's me who has been pestering her. Grandpa, you can come at me."
The sudden appearance of Maddox made Jarold squint his eyes. He looked at Maddox and Minerva behind him unhappily. He pursed his lips. "Don't you still have some time before going to work? What's wrong? Did you come here ahead of schedule just for a woman? Or could it be that she used the excuse of brewing tea just now to make a complaint?"
Minerva, who was hiding behind Maddox, suddenly felt wronged. She really went to brew tea with a serious attitude. She didn't want to make a complaint at all.
Of course, she was not the kind of woman who would complain to her husband when she was bullied.
After all, this matter was too complicated. She didn't want to involve Maddox because he didn't know what she and Master Collins knew.
