Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Minerva froze for a second when she heard his sudden soft voice. She then looked up at Maddox.

What's wrong with this person? It was so peculiar for him to react in such a manner.

Minerva pulled her hand away and did not agree to it.

However, Maddox reached out and helped her up. He was demanding even though his actions were gentle.

Minerva was at a loss for words.

Her eyes were burning with rage as she glared at Maddox.

But Maddox paid no attention to her anger. He held a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other. Then, he took a spoon of soup and brought it to her lips.

"Don't look at me, eat well." Minerva nearly freaked out when she heard Maddox's words, but she couldn't yell loudly even if she threw a fit as she was feeling weak.

"Who's looking at you?" She was glaring at him, wasn't she? Did he get it wrongly? Search the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

Maddox's smile deepened when he saw her throwing a fit. He always felt that she had been too distant and ethereal these days. However, unexpectedly, he could get closer to her because of her illness. Maddox said lowly, "Okay, you are not looking at me. Can you just drink the soup?" His words startled Minerva for a moment. Did she hear it wrongly? Why did she sense a hint of doting in Maddox's tone? When she studied his expression, she could even tell that he was trying to butter her up.

Was he trying to please her? Was it because he wanted her to consthe soup? Why? Was it because he was worried about her? But why did he have to worry about her? He was a married man. Why did he have to do such a thing? As she thought of this, Minerva bit her lower lip and refused to drink the soup.

Maddox stayed still as tpassed, but Minerva refused to drink the soup. The two of them remained locked in a stalemate.

After a long while, Maddox finally put down the bowl helplessly. "What do you want?" Minerva glared at him stubbornly.

"I should be the one asking you, shouldn't I?" Minerva sneered. She tilted her head and glanced at the ton the wall. "It's already late. If you don't return, you will keep your wife waiting, won't you?" Maddox halted.

His gaze darkened a little. It seemed that this woman had no knowledge of her ongoing marriage with him, thus she was able to say such words.

But... when she turned her head and talked, it seemed that...

"Mr. Yardley," Minerva said word by word, "I have no idea what was on your mind when you stayed here. I thank you for sendingto the hospital today, but you can't stay here any longer... Oh." Before she could finish her sentence, her chin was suddenly held up. Then, she was turned to the opposite direction and kissed by him in the lips before she could react.

In an instant, Minerva's eyes widened as she stared at him in surprise, completely dumbfounded.

After the kiss, Maddox pulled away. She could still feel his warm breath on her face. "I'm going to stay here. What do you say?" Minerva's pupils constricted as she cto her senses. She then raised her hand and wanted to slap Maddox in the face, only to find out that her hand was in his grasp, and she couldn't escape from him. "What the hell are you planning to do?" Minerva's lips turned red after she had been kissed. On the other hand, her face was paler than she had been before.

"I'm not planning to do anything. Have ssoup," Maddox was still holding onto the bowl of soup. Minerva wiped her lips and glared at him. "You will leave if I finish it?" Maddox shrugged, while Minerva didn't utter a word either. She reached out to take the bowl of soup and raised her head to drink it.

Maddox blocked her with his hand, "Don't drink too fast." She had gastric problems and had just woken up. If Minerva drank it all in one go, she might suffer from indigestion.

Minerva's movement halted. She did not expect him to react similarly to Vera. Could it be that Vera had told him in advance? Such a disloyal friend! Not only did Vera not cto her rescue, but she even taught him such an important detail.

Each tMinerva's gastric problems flared up, Vera would prepare soup for her to consume. However, Minerva disliked the taste of it and wanted to finish it in one go, but Vera would stop her from doing it everytime.

Thus, Minerva could only drink slowly. After finishing the soup, Maddox took the bowl from her and said lightly, "Sit for a while and rest." Minerva looked at him in bewilderment, "Aren't you leaving?" She had gradually regained her strength.

"Leave?" Maddox raised his eyebrows and smirked. "Who will take care of you if I leave?" "Mr. Yardley! It is inconvenient for a man to stay with me. After you leave, I will call over someone else to take care of me." Hearing her words, Maddox's eyes sparkled. He sudde inched closer to her and said, "We have shared a kiss. What is there to be considered inconvenient?" Minerva gasped, "You!" Maddox let out a low chuckle. "Sleep well. If you are not feeling well, remember to call me.'1 There was another bed for family members in the ward. After locking the door, Maddox went back to bed.

Although the two beds were separated by a short distance, Minerva could sense his strong presence in the ward.

Perhaps it was due to the kiss. She felt that Maddox's aura seemed to linger around her body, and it won't dissipate. She was a little annoyed and bit her lower lip. She refused to stay in the sroom with a married Maddox.

However, he was unwilling to leave.

Minerva gradually closed her eyes and made up her mind.

In the middle of the night, the doctor cto check on her once. He left again after confirming that she had no other symptoms.

At first, Minerva couldn't fall asleep. But late at night, her eyelids felt so heavy to the extent that she drifted into sleep at once. When she woke up again, the sun had risen. There was no sign of Maddox in the quiet ward.

She was stupefied for a second, then she pulled the covers off and sat up.

She had suffered from gastric pain the day before, yet she felt better now. Minerva scanned her CO surroundings before getting out of bed and putting on her shoes. She was about to go to the bathroom. The bathroom door suddenly opened and she saw the familiar face of Maddox. He looked weary as he had accompanied her all night. There are water droplets on his face, but even so, he still looked handsome.

Minerva shot him a glance before she withdrew her gaze.

"Do you want to use the bathroom?" Maddox asked before she could say anything.

Minerva only nodded silently without a word.

He leaned aside and pushed the door open for her. "Go, be careful. Do you still suffer any gastric pain? Do you feel dizzy?" He asked several questions in a row. After Minerva walked in, she directly slammed the door shut in his face, blocking him outside.
