So that was what Maddox was thinking.
Minerva thought that he would ask about Abigail, but he didn't.
She was a little unwilling to give up. She stared at the side of his face as he drove. After hesitating for a long time, she asked, "When you saw Auntie Stark... didn't you feel any different?"
After asking, she held her breath and waited quietly for his answer.
Suddenly, Maddox's phone rang, completely disrupting Minerva's expectation. She looked at Maddox as he picked up the call with a cold expression. After saying a few words, he hung up the phone and then looked at her.
"Don't worry, since she's your aunt, I'll take good care of her." He said.
Minerva did not say anything else after that.
When they reached the lobby of their residence, Maddox's phone rang again. Minerva's eyes twinkled.
"Is your grandfather asking you to go back? Why don't you..." She suggested.
Maddox expressionlessly switched the phone to
silent mode.
"It's fine," he said.
Minerva lowered her eyes, but her heart was heavy.
Jarold really didn't want her to stay with him, but he hadn't made any moves recently. It must be because of Maddox.
She didn't know how long these seemingly peaceful but dangerous days would last.
"Master Collins, I'm really upset. Sebastian wouldn't get engaged to me, and he even took a fancy to one of the female staff in the company. Zaydon thought that I was mentally ill and even brought me to a psychiatrist. I'm so scared... will they treat me like a mad woman one day?"
Monica's tears rolled down her face as she tugged at Jarold's sleeve, "Please don't tell my brother and grandfather that I'm here, okay? I don't dare to see them."
When Jarold heard that Zaydon had brought Monica to see a psychiatrist, it made him extremely angry.
He felt that there wasn't anything wrong with Monica, but it was true that she liked Sebastian very much. He didn't know what Zaydon was thinking. Why would he bring her to a psychiatrist?
As a normal person, how could she not be afraid when she was suddenly treated like this?
The people dispatched by the Collins family had not been able to find her. Sebastian did not care about this matter at all. When Jarold was in a state of extreme anxiety, Monica had taken the initiative to come looking for him.
Furthermore, when she appeared in front of Jarold, her clothes were torn and her face was bruised. She looked to have suffered many hardships.
The once noble and beautiful lady had become like this. Furthermore, she was the granddaughterin-law that he had chosen. Jarold's heart softened and he felt especially sorry for her. Thus, he let her stay.
When he saw her pull at his sleeve and repeatedly call him Master Collins and saying that she didn't want to see her brother or anyone from the Dormer family, he felt his heart ache.
"Don't worry, Monica. As long as I am here, I definitely will not let your brother bring you to a psychiatrist again. You are so healthy, why would you need to see a psychiatrist? Don't be afraid, I will protect you." "Master Collins, you really wouldn't let my brother take me to a psychiatrist? I'm really scared. I want to see Sebastian... please?"
Actually, ever since Monica came, Jarold had sent Baldrick to call Maddox. However, that brat said that he wouldn't be coming back. Since then, he hadn't picked up any of their calls.
