As the words were about to come out of her mouth, Maddox suddenly stood up. "You just woke up. I'll pour you a glass of water."
Then, he got up and went to get some water.
Looking at his back, Minerva was stunned. She had almost told him, but he suddenly stood up and said that he was going to pour her some water.
Was it her illusion? She felt that he seemed to be avoiding it deliberately.
Up to this point, she lowered her eyes and pursed her pale lips tightly.
If he was avoiding it deliberately, did that mean that he already knew about it?
That was right. This was a hospital. How could she hide it?
A single word from the doctor, and the thing that she had been hiding for so long would be exposed.
Soon, Maddox poured a glass of water and handed it to her.
Minerva took the cup and silently drank the warm water, but her mind was in a mess. She didn't know what to say.
Just then, Abigail knocked on the ward's door. She pushed the door and entered the ward.
She saw this scene in the ward, she put the bag on the table and whispered, "Minerva, are you awake?"
"Auntie."
Maddox also turned around and greeted her. Then, he got up and gave the seat to her. Abigail sat down at the edge of the bed and looked back at him.
"I'll go make a phone call."
He probably knew that they had something to talk about, so he said this directly. He took out his cell phone, turned around, and went out of the ward.
Abigail watched as Maddox left the ward. She got up and walked to the door. After making sure that he had left, she turned around and walked back to Minerva.
"Auntie!"
Minerva placed the cup in her hand on the table beside her and called out to her anxiously, "Maddox, he..."
"I know what you want to ask, and I'm thinking about it." Abigail saw her anxious face, so she went straight to the point.
Upon hearing this, Minerva was stunned. "Aunt, you too..."
"Yes." Abigail nodded.
It turned out that Abigail was the same as her. They were not sure whether Maddox know or not?
"What do you think in your heart? If you are going to test him, you should be ready to tell him everything and prepare to bear all the consequences. Have you... thought about all these?"
Minerva lowered her eyes. "I... I didn't think that such a thing would happen before. It's too sudden."
"Then you haven't thought about it yet. In fact, things are simple. There are only two possibilities. The first is that he may have heard about the news from the doctor, but he just didn't show it. As for what he will do, we don't know. However, you know Maddox's character better than me, so to that, I won't say much. The second is that he doesn't know this matter yet. You can continue to hide it, but no one knows how long you need to hide it for. Anyway, you should figure it out by yourself," Abigail analyzed.
The two of them fell into silence after they finished talking.
If Maddox had not suddenly gotten up to pour her some water, she might have let the matter out.
If she had told him just now, everything would be alright, but she didn't.
Therefore, if she was asked to tell him again, she might not have the courage.
Indeed, some things had to be done as soon as they had been decided. However, after that time, it would be tough for her to gather her courage.
After finishing the call, Maddox came back with a bag in his hand. There were some toiletries that the servants had prepared.
Minerva watched him place things one by one. When he came over and saw that she had drunk half of the cup of water, he asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you need a doctor to check on you?"
