Did she just ask him to stay for dinner? Maddox wondered if Geoffrey had texted her, but her question successfully diverted his attention. Stay for dinner? "Are you invitingto stay?" He asked, staring at her with his dark and mesmerizing gaze.
Minerva nodded and said, "Yes, there are singredients in the refrigerator. I can make us dinner." "You can cook?" Maddox seemed a little surprised and couldn't help but ask.
But soon, he realized that what he said was wrong. Hence, he corrected himself, "No, wait, who knows what you're going to cook." With that, Minerva's expression turned sad instantly, making her look much like a kicked puppy. She sighed, "Even though I can't be considered professional at cooking, how can you say something like that when you haven't tried it?" Maddox had no comeback to that.
He frowned. Why was she so disappointed? It's just a meal.
"If... if you're worried, I can ask Geoffrey to cover..." Maddox interrupted her coldly before she could finish her sentence, "Do you have a good relationship with him?" "Huh?" Minerva blinked her eyes and shook her head subconsciously, replying, "Not really. Aren't you two friends? I just want to..." "You don't need to ask him to cover," Maddox interrupted her again.
"So...you're going to stay?" Minerva asked carefully.
Maddox pursed his thin lips as he felt rather awkward right now. When he was thinking about how to refuse her so that she would not feel too upset, he saw a smile appear on her face as she said, "Please sit down for a while. I'll go and prepare the food." After saying that, she ran towards the kitchen, moving so quickly as if she was trying to escape.
Maddox watched her figure as she left the room as he recalled what Geoffrey had said to him earlier. He had a feeling that... he might have been set up by someone.
The woman in front of him seemed to be in high spirits and energetic. In other words, she didn't seem to be ill at all.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat d*mned Geoffrey. He made up all those lies just to get him to cover. Honestly, he really would go to any lengths to achieve his goals.
Maddox did not have an excuse to leave, so he looked around before he sat down. Then, he lowered his head and looked at the coat he was holding.
He thought of what happened earlier in the room.
A pair of red underwear...
Stop.
Maddox managed to control his thoughts in time. He had to stop thinking about it.
If he thought about it further, the pervert here wouldn't be his assistant, but him instead.
However, most of the time, the more one wanted to control their thoughts, the more they would occupy one's mind.
Right now, this was exactly how Maddox couldn't stop thinking about the silhouette and shape of the underwear. He looked at the coat in his hand again, and it felt like he was holding something burning hot. A while later, he threw the coat aside immediately.
Forget it, he'd better not take it back.
At least it saved him from thinking about it all the time.
Meanwhile, Minerva was busy cooking in the kitchen with a smile on her face.
The Facebook message she received was from Geoffrey, and of course, it was about Maddox.
At first, she really thought that Maddox was here to get his coat. However, Geoffrey told her that he told Maddox she was not feeling well, causing Maddox to rush out of the house. Thus, he asked her if Maddox had cto see her.
When she saw this message, Minerva felt as if her heart was engulfed by something warm and sweet. To top it off... her heart was beating faster.
Perhaps arrogance was Maddox's true nature. He acted just like his old self. Even though he seemed like he did not care at all, he would help her solve all her problems secretly and protect her in front of other people.
If he was using the coat as an excuse to meet her, this... was a good thing.
This showed that even if Maddox lost his memory, he was still greatly attracted to her.
As she washed the vegetables, she replied to Geoffrey's message.
"Thank you." It seemed that Geoffrey had been waiting for her reply. When he saw her message that read, "thank you", he sent her a question mark immediately.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis message was then bombarded by multiple messages.
"D*mn, did he really go looking for you?" "Good heavens! I am so excited for you! What should I do? Minny, I'm very sure that Sebastian likes you despite what he says." Minerva's heart skipped a beat when she saw the last sentence, but she did not reply to him back. Instead, she switched her phone to silent mode and focused on cooking.
She did not know how long she had been in the kitchen when a man's voice was suddenly heard from behind her. "How long will it take?" Minerva turned around and saw Maddox stepping into the kitchen, his tone icy.
She was stunned for a moment and calculated the exact tseriously before giving him the answer.
"About half an hour, it's not that fast. Are you... hungry?" After saying that, she turned on the tap and washed her hands quickly. She looked at Maddox nervously and suggested, "How about I make something quick for you?" Maddox saw that there were a lot of things in the kitchen, and he couldn't help but frown, "You're going to make that much food?" "Well, not really. It's basically just three dishes and a soup. Are you hungry? Do you want to have snoodles?" Minerva asked. She tiptoed and was about to grab the packet of instant noodles from the shelf.
Maddox couldn't bear to see her standing on her tiptoes, so he raised his hand to help her and said, "No, I don't eat instant noodles." Minerva was a little disappointed, "Then..." "What can I do to help?" Maddox asked before Minerva could continue.
"Huh?" Minerva's eyes widened. It was as if she couldn't believe it as she asked again, "You want to help?" Maddox avoided looking directly into her eyes as he said with a calm face, "I can't just mooch off somebody's generosity, right?" "There's really no need to. I can do it myself," Minerva thought about it for a moment before rejecting Maddox's goodwill, "I think you'd better wait foroutside, sir." However, Maddox stared at her for a while and said with a sneer, "Are you underestimating my abilities?" "No, I am not." She shook her head and denied it, although she really did think so.
After all, he had never stepped foot into the kitchen before. How could he know how to cook? If he was helping he her, Minerva might have to end up doing more work instead. "Ha," Maddox laughed coldly, and his tone was unkind as he scoffed, "It looks like you're indeed underestimating me." "No, I really am not."
In the end, Minerva had no choice but to sigh, "If you insist on helping me, you... you can helpslaughter the NO. fish. "Maddox's expression was cold as he unbuttoned his sleeves. How dare this woman underestimate him?
He was going to astound her with his abilities and make her see the error of her ways. However, when Minerva lifted a bucket of fish and showed it to him, Maddox fell silent. He looked at the fish swimming happily in the bucket silently, and his face turned livid. He looked at Minerva and asked for confirmation, "Is this what you wantto kill?" Minerva's eyes lit up. She nodded and said, "Yes, is there a problem?" X
