Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Minerva sent them downstairs and watched them getting into the car. When they were about to go, the landlord cback as well and she followed Minerva with a smile. "I didn't expect you to have such a handsand rich boyfriend," She said.

Minerva replied, "He is..." "It's okay, you don't have to explain. I understand. It doesn't matter. You can bring your boyfriend here occasionally. I won't say anything." After saying that, the landlord gave her a sly smile before she went upstairs.

Thus, Minerva felt a little helpless. She could not be bothered to explain, so she went upstairs.

The house was much livelier when Maddox and Geoffrey were here. However, she was the only one left when she opened the door now. Hence, Minerva felt a little lonely.

Alas.

It was true that there were sthings that one could never get used to.

For example, if she was exposed to light after living her days in darkness, she would no longer be able to endure the dark days.

However, if she continued to stay in the darkness, then she would be unable to see the light. If so, she would never know what the light looked like, thus her heart would never yearn for it.

Minerva sighed silently in her heart as she started to tidy up the house. She found that Maddox had forgotten to take away the coat that she had washed for him.

'Didn't you cfor this coat? Why didn't you take it when you leave?' Minerva couldn't help but complain as she picked up the coat.

Since he didn't take it with him, she would take care of it for him.

But this time, Minerva didn't dare to hang the suit in her closet. Instead, she hung the suit up at the balcony and prepared to take a shower. When she entered the bathroom, she realized that Maddox had left his clothes behind after he took a shower too.

Minerva was speechless.

She stared at the pile of clothes in a daze and thought of something. Her pale cheeks began to turn red.

As soon as Maddox and Geoffrey entered the room, the servant said respectfully, "Master Collins is waiting for you upstairs." "Got it." He said.

After that, Maddox went upstairs directly. Geoffrey followed him quickly and said, "I guess the Dormer family left. I didn't see their car just now." "Yup," He replied faintly.

"What if Master Collins really wishes to get you two engaged?" Geoffrey asked.

Maddox didn't answer his question. However, in his heart, there was a very clear answer. He was not going to be engaged to Monica.

Knock, knock...

"Cin." Jarold said.

Maddox opened the door. Jarold, who was sitting in front of the desk, raised his eyes. Although his eyes were old, they were sharp and spirited. He sat there with a majestic aura.

When he saw that Geoffrey was following Maddox, he believed what Maddox had said earlier. Then he snorted heavily, "Oscar is so useless for not disciplining his grandson, and so you go around causing trouble every day. Geoffrey, how old are you now? Isn't it tfor you to learn something and manage the company for your grandfather? Don't go wandering about all day." Geoffrey didn't feel bad about being mocked in front of Jarold. Instead, he walked up to him, grinning cheekily. "Master Collins, it's fine as long as my father's in charge of the company. It's none of my business. Besides, I'll definitely manage the company if I'm as smart as Sebastian. I'm just afraid I'll screw up and cause major losses for the company." Hearing Geoffrey praise his precious grandson, Jarold was secretly glad, but he still reprimanded him. "All you know is how to talk. If you could put more effort into your business, your grandfather wouldn't cto complain about you every now and then." "I can't help it. I'm only good at talking, and I'm not made for anything else." Jarold sighed heavily and looked at Maddox who remained silent. He said sternly, "Since you're here, cand have a seat. I have something important to tell you." Then, Maddox walked over and sat down across from Jarold. Geoffrey wanted to leave, but Jarold said, "You can stay, there's nothing secretive about this." "Thank you, Master Collins," Geoffrey replied.

He quickly pulled out a chair and sat down next to Maddox. He knew that Master Collins would ask him to stay, but he just wanted to put on an act in front of him, or else... he would have been deemed a glutton for gossip.

Next, Jarold sized Maddox up. He didn't speak and the two men didn't know what was he thinking. After a long while, he asked, "Sebastian, what do you think of Monica?" Geoffrey was speechelss.

F*ck, he was right.

It was a sign that Master Collins wanted Monica to be engaged to Sebastian.

Geoffrey looked at Sebastian before he clenched his fists.

"Don't disappointand Minerva." He thought.

Then, Maddox looked up and found that Jarold had been staring at him as if he was sizing up his emotions and reactions. He pursed his thin lips. There was a cold aura surrounding him.

"I don't know." Three words fell from his lips.

When Jarold heard this, he frowned instantly.

"What do you mean you don't know?" "I don't really pay attention to her. I don't know." Jarold was speechless.

It was obvious that he wasn't interested in Monica, that was why he didn't pay attention to her. Thus, he wouldn't know.

Meanwhile, Geoffrey secretly gave Maddox a thumbs-up.

He was still thinking about how Maddox would answer the question. He had thought that Maddox would be polite in front of Jarold, but he didn't expect Maddox to answer this way. Indeed, Jarold felt like he was going to have a stroke when he heard that.

"Why are you like this? What do you mean you didn't pay attention? Monica cto visit you every day when e you were sick. Can't you see that she's kind and gentle?" Jarold said. Then, Maddox replied, "I didn't ask her to visit me." "You!" Jarold stood up furiously, wanting to lose his temper at Maddox.

Seeing this, Geoffrey hurriedly stood up to hold him back. "Master Collines, don't be mad. Maddox is too straightforward. How can he say something like that? But I understand what he means. Here, I'll explain it to you," he said.

"You know Sebastian's character. If he didn't pay attention to her, it means that he really does not care about her. This shows that he has no feelings towards the eldest daughter of the Dormer family." he added. However, Jarold could sense that something wasn't right in Geoffrey's words. He slightly narrowed his eyes as he looked at him.

The pressure made Geoffrey let go of his hand. He said awkwardly, "Master Collins, you've worked so hard to find Sebastian. Now that he is back, do you really want to force him to do this? Although Monica is beautiful... you can't force unwanted feelings, right?" As he said this, Jarold snorted coldly and smashed his crutch on the ground. "Great, it seems that you two have discussed how to deal with me, is that right?" X
