Sam had not yet returned.
There was a vague suspicion in Maddox's heart, but he wasn't sure. He wanted to call Sam and ask about the situation, but he was worried that he would be exposed. After thinking for five minutes, Sam still had not come back.
Maddox took the car keys and left alone.
It was the sixth day.
He hadn't seen Minerva for six days.
He felt bitter in his heart, but the reality was cruel. He had tried many times these days. No matter how long he had been in the water and how much he suffered mentally, it still had no effect at all.
Aside from seeing fleetingly a person in his past, there was no sign of regaining his memories at all.
If only there was any progress, even a little progress would do, then he wouldn't have felt so anxious.
When he arrived, Jeremy saw him and his face changed slightly.
"Shall we continue today?" He asked carefully.
Maddox had been coming for so many days, and his expression was getting darker and darker each day. Jeremy even suspected that something was going to happen to him.
However, seeing this person except for his pale face, he looked just like a normal person.
Maddox's strong desire to regain his lost memories made it hard for Jeremy to refuse.
"No."
However, that day Jeremy finally heard different words from Maddox's mouth. He would usually keep a cold face and faintly say two words, "Go on."
Following that, Jeremy couldn't do anything else but do as he wished.
That day, Maddox finally said 'No'. Jeremy thought that he had come to his senses, so he was very excited. "Maddox, you finally figured things out. I told you before that you should stop for a few days. That way, your physical and mental capacity won't be over-exerted, and the probability of any risks will be minimized. You are so stubborn, and I'm scared everyday. Now that you've finally thought things through, it's great news! So, you..."
Maddox furrowed his brows and an annoyed look appeared on his face. It was obvious that he had lost his patience while waiting for him to finish.
With a cold face, he interrupted Jeremy's words.
He asked, "Do you have time?"
"Huh?" Jeremy was interrupted. He came to a halt, staring questioningly at him.
Maddox squinted his eyes and said, "I can't wait for it to recover slowly. It'll be a waste of time."
Jeremy replied, "So?"
Looking at Maddox in front of him, Jeremy suddenly had a very bad feeling.
Earlier, he thought that Maddox had come to his senses. However, now, he felt that something was wrong. If he had no intention to continue, he would not have come looking for him. He could have just rested at home.
But he still came to find him. Based on what he knew, Jeremy felt that this trip of his definitely wouldn't be so simple.
He nervously swallowed a mouthful of saliva as these terrifying thoughts filled his mind.
"Don't tell me you want to..."
Maddox saw the look of horror on his face. His thin lips curved up slightly. "You're very smart. You're indeed my good friend."
Jeremy was in shock and couldn't say anything.
This was the first time he had seen a smile on Maddox's face that week. Although it was very faint, after all, it was still a smile. Jeremy never thought that he would see him smile under such circumstances.
