What? Minerva thought that she had misheard him. If not, then she was surely hallucinating. Why would Maddox appear at her apartment? And why would he ask her to bring him upstairs? "Why are you standing there like a fool? Let's go." Just as Minerva was still in a daze, Maddox spoke again. His voice sounded harsh and steely. As she looked into his eyes, they were dark and emotionless.
Well, that could only go to say that he was real and not her hallucination.
If it was part of her illusion, Maddox wouldn't look like this. She nodded and walked forward, opening the door silently.
It was extremely unexpected to see him here.
Frankly, it was because she didn't see him when they went to the restaurant. Geoffrey said that Maddox didn't read his text, but he was not the kind of person who was good at telling lies, and she was no longer a little girl. How could she not see that Geoffrey was hiding something? Therefore, not only was Minerva surprised to see him here, she was also excited.
She opened the door and walked in, and Maddox followed behind her.
Minerva took Maddox upstairs. While doing so, they happened to run into the landlord, Belinda, who had cdownstairs. Belinda noticed the tall man behind Minerva and checked him out from head to toe. She then asked with a smile, "Is he your boyfriend?" Minerva's face turned red and she shook her head awkwardly.
Belinda thought she was shy, so she just brushed past them with a smile.
After that, Minerva opened the door and entered the hallway.
She bent down and took out a pair of women's slippers and placed them in front of him. Maddox frowned upon seeing this.

Minerva replied, "I'm sorry. I... only have this pair of indoor slippers." With no choice, Maddox took a look at the shoe cabinet. Indeed, there was only a pair of women's indoor slippers in it, while the rest were her own shoes.
Maddox withdrew his gaze after a short glance. A strange feeling rose in his heart.
She only had one pair of slippers, which meant she had never had anyone else over in this house. If that was the case, this meant that he... was the first one. Thinking of this, Maddox found Minerva much more pleasing to the eye.
"There is a supermarket downstairs. Why don't you wait here for a while? I'll buy you a pair of slippers," Minerva suggested.
Maddox frowned. Was he such a petty person? "It's okay, you can wear your slippers. I'll leave soon anyway," He replied.
Then, he took off his shoes and walked into the house with his socks on. Minerva put on her slippers and followed him.
She really didn't know why Maddox was here. She was confused, but she didn't dare to ask. After all, he was pretty... emotional now.
She felt that if she asked one more question to him, he would definitely start beating the people around him up in anger.
After Maddox cin, he found that the house was quite clean. Perhaps it was because she was living alone as there was still a faint fragrance in the room. After looking around, he found a few pots of orchids on the balcony.
No wonder there was a fragrance in the room. It turned out that she had a hobby of gardening.
Meanwhile, Minerva had gone to the kitchen to make Maddox a cup of coffee. Maddox took a few sips and heard Minerva ask softly, "Is there anything I can do for you?" His actions paused mid-way.
Right, why did he cto meet her? Was he going to say that he had driven here without realizing it? None of those explanations would work.
Hence, he pursed his lips and fell into deep thought.
Minerva realized that after she raised a question, he had stopped drinking the coffee. It seemed that he was thinking of something.
He did not know this, but when he thought about things, his brows would subconsciously furrow and his lips would purse tightly.
Was he thinking about how to answer her question? If he still needed to think before answering, was he... Minerva was also lost in thought when she suddenly heard Maddox say to her coldly, "Give it to me." "What?" Minerva was startled and looked back at him in confusion.
Give what to him? Maddox looked displeased as he answered, "My coat." Minerva was befuddled.
The expression on Maddox's face had begun to grow impatient. This was because Minerva's current behavior seemed like she was trying to analyze the situation, and he felt as if his intentions were about to be seen through. There was a hint of agitation in his tone as he growled, "My coat, didn't you say that you would give it back toafter cleaning it?" Upon hearing this, Minerva finally cto a realization.
It turned out that he was talking about his coat, but... Minerva couldn't help but frown. He clearly said that he had mysophobia and didn't want that coat back.
Why did he cpurposely for the coat? "What's wrong?" Maddox saw that she was standing there in a daze, and her expression was a little dull. He didn't know what she was thinking about. He could only laugh at her, "Do you want that coat for yourself?" Minerva felt a little awkward when her thoughts were exposed on the spot. She quickly waved her hand. "No, of course not. Why would I ever do such a thing? I have sent the coat to the laundry and hung it up. I will go and get it for you now." After saying that, Minerva turned around and walked towards her wardrobe in the room.
However, her expression beca little forlorn the moment she turned around.

When Maddox said that he didn't want the coat back, she hung it in her closet so she could see it every day 19 seejt when she opened her wardrobe.
Since he didn't want it, then she would take advantage of it. She didn't expect him to cto get his coat back today. This was too out of the ordinary.
Despite her reluctance, she went into the room to get the coat. For sreason, Maddox stood up and followed her, but he stopped by the door.
Minerva opened the wardrobe door. Sadness lingered in her chest, but as soon as she raised her head, she was stunned.
Before going to bed last night, she had casually hung her underwear on the coat. It was still there when she opened the closet.
Minerva's expression changed drastically, but it was too late for her to close the wardrobe door.
There were footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw Maddox frowning as he strode towards her.
From his expression and gaze, he should have seen what happened a lexa bit her! moment ago. Minerva bit her lower lip and wished she could just bury herself in a ditch right now to spare herself the embarrassment. It was all her fault: she was too careless. Why did she hang her underwear on the coat?
Moreover, she did not feel that there was anything wrong with it when she opened the wardrobe that morning. After all, since he did not want the coat anymore, she could do anything she wanted with it. Alas, she had forgotten about it. Finally, Maddox walked up to her. He narrowed his eyes as he sized her up.
Minerva raised her head and looked at him before she immediately shifted her eyes away again with a guilty conscience.
Maddox recalled seeing red lingerie hanging off his coat, and the scene was permanently engraved into his mind. "Are you a pervert?" X
