Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

It's tfor lunch.

Minerva packed up her things and was about to head downstairs to the cafeteria when she saw a man with a smile on his face standing at the entrance.

"You're off work?" It was only when she saw Benedict that she remembered that he had asked her out for lunch.

She looked at him with embarrassment. Probably because she had been imagining things in her head, she actually forgot about his lunch invitation. "Yes," she nodded.

Naturally, he turned around and walked out. When he took a few steps and realized that Minerva wasn't following him, he turned around and looked at her. "Why aren't you leaving yet?" "Oh," Minerva cback to her senses and hurriedly followed him.

When they entered the elevator, she was standing behind him. Minerva kept a distance between Benedict and herself. Even after going downstairs, she still followed behind him.

He didn't say anything. He opened the car door for her. Minerva hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are we going somewhere far away? There are restaurants nearby. Why don't we just eat something nearby?" Hearing this, he smiled and said softly, "Although lunch isn't as important as breakfast, you can't be so casual. I was wondering why you've lost so much weight in these past five years. Did you not have any good meals?" Minerva didn't say a word.

"Let's go. I've already booked a table. It'll be a pity if we don't make it." Since he had already said so, he was obviously pressuring her. Did she have a reason not to get in the car? After she got in the car, Benedict bent down and tried to fasten her seat belt for her. Minerva's face changed slightly and said quickly, "I can do it myself." He didn't force her. He just smiled slightly. "Okay." After that, he went to the other side and sat in the driver's seat.

While sitting in Benedict's car, Minerva's feelings were complicated. He spoke to her from tto time.

She glanced at the tand couldn't help but ask, "Is it far away?" He didn't answer. He took a turn and said, "We're here." She was stunned for a moment before she cto her senses.

"I'll park the car at the parking lot. The air there is not that good. You can get out first and wait forinside." "Okay." Minerva agreed. Then, she got out of the car and went into the restaurant to wait for him. About three minutes later, he cback. He was still carrying the car keys and said, "Let's go in." Benedict seemed to be a frequent visitor there. Just as he entered with Minerva, a waiter immediately cforward to guide them. The two of them followed behind the waiter. When she wanted to keep a distance from him, he purposely slowed down his steps to walk alongside her. In the end, even Minerva was embarrassed and had no choice but to walk normally.

After entering the private room, Benedict smiled and said, "Let's try something different today. Let's have sChinese food." Upon hearing this, Minerva shook her head and said, "No, in fact, I enjoy Chinese food." "I know," Benedict couldn't help laughing. "You prefer Chinese food more than Western food." Minerva looked up at him and did not respond.

However, the waiter said with a smile, "This is the first tI've seen you bring your girlfriend here." Benedict gave a faint smile and didn't deny it.

On the other hand, Minerva frowned. She looked at the waiter with displeasure and said, "I'm not his girlfriend." The waiter was stunned and looked at Benedict with embarrassment.

He didn't get angry. He looked at Minerva tenderly and explained, "She's not my girlfriend yet." These words skillfully resolved the awkwardness between the waiter and Han Minerva.

"I'm so sorry. What would you like to eat?" Han Minerva sat down and thought about Benedict's words.

He had said that he would compete fairly yesterday. Could it be that he was serious? Was he really going to pursue her? If not, why would he suddenly cto the office to treat her to lunch? She casually ordered something and then handed the menu to Benedict.

Compared to her, he was more careful when he ordered. He ordered several dishes, and told the waiter things to take note of.

"Okay, Mr. Yardley and Miss, please wait for a moment." After he went out, Benedict got up and poured Minerva a cup of tea. He said, "I used to chere often, but every tI chere, I was alone. It's the first tI've brought a girl here, so he probably misunderstood the situation." Was he trying to explain himself? Han Minerva shook her head and said, "It's alright. Anyway, I've already explained it clearly." Benedict looked at her and suddenly fell into silence. After a long while, he said, "In fact, you don't have to deny and explain in such a rush." "What do you mean?" Han Minerva looked at him in confusion.

"I have begun to officially pursue you. Even if you're not my girlfriend now, sooner or later, you may be." She kept quiet.

Previously, only Maddox was so confident. Why was Benedict acting the same? Although he looked gentle, his words were a little too arrogant. Thinking of this, her red lips curled into a smile, "Is that so? Are you so sure that I'll be with you?" "It's not that I'm confident, but I'm sincerely pursuing you. I want to protect you, Minerva." She was at a loss for words.

She didn't expect him to give her such a reply. She was rendered speechless.

She looked down at the tableware in front of her and did not reply.

"If you are with me, I will not let you be hurt. Whether it is you or Beanie, I will do my best to treat you well." Han Minerva raised her head and fixed her eyes on him.

"You know that Beanie is Maddox's child, so why did you..." "I don't mind." Benedict poured himself a cup of tea. He took a sip gracefully.

"I didn't mind it five years ago. Do you think I'll still care about it now? You're the only one I care about." "But I'm not." Minerva interrupted him, "What I care about right now isn't myself, but my child." Benedict paused for a moment and tentatively asked, "Are you afraid that I'll treat Beanie badly?"

Minerva did not reply. However, she felt that everyone wanted their own child. Who would raise someone else's child? Moreover, the grudge between Benedict and Maddox was not something that could be explained in a few words. Thinking of this, Han Minerva shook her head.

"No, what I mean is..."

"Well, let's not talk about this during lunch. You'll find out how I treat you dout how ! in the future. It takes tto verify my sincerity. You'll have plenty of tto do so." X
