Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 876

After what happened last night...

The first thing Maddox did after regaining his consciousness was to stretch out his hand to hug her. However, he found that there was no one beside him and immediately opened his deep eyes. Sure enough, Minerva was nowhere to be seen.

Maddox quickly lifted the blanket and sat up. Then, he noticed the bedsheet and blanket were horribly wrinkled. He called out Minerva's name but didn't get any response. Then he got dressed and searched every room.

The house was quiet, and Minerva was nowhere to be seen.

Maddox sat by the bed, and the sound of his breathing filled the room. If it weren't for the proof on the sheets, Maddox would have doubted whether what had happened the night before was true.

After a moment of silence, Maddox took out his phone and called Minerva.

Once, twice, thrice...

All of them ended with a polite but cold female voice.

"Sorry, the person you have called is unavailable, please try again later."

Maddox's brows furrowed. He continued to dial the number. However, no one answered the call. He frowned and clasped the phone harder.

Could it be that she regretted what they had done last night?

So she left early in the morning and didn't even answer his calls?

As soon as the idea appeared in his mind, Maddox's eyelids twitched. He immediately got up and walked out. Maddox stopped in his tracks when he passed by the bathroom.

He turned his eyes and saw the clothes from last night. They had been packed up and thrown into the washing machine. However, the washing machine was not on, probably because she was afraid of waking him up.

Maddox's eyes darkened when he saw that.

If she had regretted it, she probably wouldn't have done these things. Instead, she would have packed up and left.

Maddox stood and watched quietly for a while. When he returned to his room, he discovered that Minerva's suitcase and other items were there. Only her hand phone and her bag were missing.

She had probably just gone out.

Maddox figured her phone was probably on silent, or that it was too noisy outside, thus she did not pick up his calls.

He comforted himself that all of these seemed to be quite logical.

However, the moment he closed his eyes, he recalled what had happened the night before. Maddox felt that he was a beast. She just said that she was worried about him and wanted to help. How could he not control himself?

They had only been together for a short time, but it still happened because he had been drugged...

The more he thought about it, the more he felt sorry towards her.

If she was angry, it was normal for her to run away.

After a moment of silence, Maddox couldn't just sit and await his doom. He called someone to help him check for Minerva's whereabouts.

Soon, the surveillance surrounding the estate was transferred to Maddox's email. He took a look at it.

When he saw Minerva walking out, the expression on her face and her condition were the same as usual. He couldn't see anything out of the ordinary, other than... the strange posture she was in when she walked.

Maddox was at loss for words.

Maddox thought of his viciousness last night and how she told him to be gentle. His eyes darkened, and his throat rolled.

Her taste...

It was indeed as good as he thought.

Although he was under the influence of the philter, Maddox knew that even without it, he would have reacted the same when he faced her.

She answered the phone, and it seemed that she just went out.

Later, he received a message saying that she went out with Abigail.

Maddox paused when he heard Abigail's name. Wasn't that her aunt?
