When Minerva arrived, she did not see Maddox anywhere. She could not help but ask in confusion.
"Didn't you say that he was waiting forhere? Why is he not around?" The servant standing in front of the table hurriedly explained, "Young Madam, Sir went out to answer a phone call. Please take a seat first." She respectfully pulled out a chair for her. The fear in her eyes was as if she was afraid of offending her. Minerva could only smile at her, "Thank you." The servant was dumbfounded, and a shy expression immediately appeared on her face.
She really didn't expect that Minerva was actually more cordial and polite than she thought. Young Master Yardley had such a good taste for women.
"Young Madam, letpour you sfresh fruit juice." "Okay, thank you." After the glass of fruit juice arrived, Minerva took a small sip. In fact, this drink was not particularly delicious. It was different for people who actually liked juice, but she was not so fond of it.
However, it was a good thing that she was not a picky eater. Although she did not like the taste, she drank more than half of the glass.

The servants looked at each other and left in unison.
"Isn't today Sunday? Do you still have work to do?" She asked as she looked at the phone in his hand.
He paused for a moment. His dark eyes avoided her gaze. He pursed his thin lips lightly, "It's not about work." Not work? She blinked. "Then, who called you?" Thinking of the phone call just now, his lips curled up slightly. "Do you really want to know?" Hearing this, Minerva showed her hand to him. She placed the diamond ring on her long, slender fingers and said, "You've already askedto marry you. Even though you're not sincere, but... I can ask about your matters, right?." Maddox leaned over and whispered in her ear. Her face immediately flushed red. "What did you say?" "Are you unwilling?" She bit her lower lip and stared at him in front of her.
"Are you joking?" As soon as she said that, Maddox, whose eyes had a hint of a smile in them, instantly becserious, and he spoke in a livid tone.
"Do I look like I'm joking?" "It doesn't seem like it." "Good." Maddox pinched her nose and said softly, "Remember what I said just now, okay?" Minerva rubbed her nose that had been pinched by him and blinked in embarrassment. If she told Quill what Maddox had just told her...
Quill, her brother... Would he chase her out of the Hanover family? Well, this was a problem worthy of being delved.
After breakfast, they parted ways. She sat in the room in a daze. When she was thinking about what reason she could cout with, Vera called.
"Hello?" Minerva picked up the phone, but the cute voice on the other end of the phone was Beanie.
"Mommy!" "Beanie?" Hearing his voice, Minerva was a little surprised. "You got up so early? You don't have to go to school today, do you?" "Yes!" He answered excitedly, "Mommy, are you with that person?" That person? At first, Minerva didn't recall who he was referring to. After giving it sthought, realization dawned on her. Beanie didn't want to recognize Maddox as his daddy yet, so he didn't want to address him. However, she didn't expect that he would use the word "that person" to describe Maddox.
She sighed helplessly, "I told you that he is your daddy, right? Why did you call him that person? Isn't it impolite?" Beanie snorted, "I don't want to call him daddy." "What about addressing him?" Beanie had always been very polite. No matter who he met, he would address them politely, but when facing Maddox... He used "that person" to address him! "He is not worthy of my respect." Hearing this, Minerva couldn't help frowning. "Who taught you this? Didn't he always bring you around these few days? Isn't he worth your respect?" "Humph, he bullied you. Why should I respect him? Mommy... Don't speak up for that man. How did he treat you in the past? Have you forgotten?" "How did he treatin the past?" "Mommy, have you forgotten?" "I mean, how do you know about this?" Minerva had never mentioned such things to Beanie. Not to mention these, she rarely even mentioned his father.
As such, how did he know about all these matters? He had only just met Maddox a few days ago. How did he know so much? The expression on Beanie's face changed slightly. After a moment, he pouted, "Humph, you don't have to worry about how I knew, Mommy. I know that he's a bad guy!" Upon hearing that Beanie was so arrogant, Minerva thought for a moment. He was only a few years old, and it might be Vera who told him these things all of a sudden. She was the one who raised him, and it was normal for him to fight for her justice.

Thinking of this, Minerva could only answer softly, "Alright, as a child, i don't stick your nose into aduf m stil still affairs. Noong and don't understand these things. I'll tell you when you grow up in the future, okay?" He snorted, "No, I will find out by myself."
She felt helpless. She wanted to touch his hair and smooth it for him, but...she but... she could only listen to his voice through the phone. Hence, she could only speak lightly. "Beanie, why did you suddenly calltoday? Do you wantto pick you up?" "That won't do. Uncle's calling us hfor dinner." Uncle...
Quill... Why did he suddenly ask her to go hwith Beanie for dinner? Generally speaking, if Quill wanted to find Minerva, he would go directly to her house. How could it be...
Thinking of this, Minerva subconsciously looked at the m iamond ring on her hand. Did quill know about this matter? Did Vera tell him? No, Vera was not such a person.
Was it... because Beanie accidentally made a slip of the tongue? Thinking of this, Minerva let out a light cough.
She felt a little guilty.
"Go hfor dinner? What did Uncle say to you? Or did you say something to him?" "Oh," Beanie let out a cry. "Mommy, cand pickup, and I'll tell you." She replied, "Since when did you learn to be so naughty?" Forget it, Quill would know sooner or later. Even if he didn't ask her to go back for a meal, Minerva would still do So.
"Well, stay at hand wait for me. I will pick you up later."
