The meeting lasted for a long time. When it was finally over, everyone packed up and was ready to leave the conference room.

Sam held it in for several hours. From tto time, he glanced at Maddox's side profile and wanted to whisper into his ears. He wanted to tell him that Mrs. Yardley was waiting in his office.

However, thinking that Minerva told him not to tell him that she was here, Sam resisted the urge to do so.

Therefore, as soon as the meeting ended, Sam walked up to Maddox and said in a low voice.

"Mr. Yardley." Maddox's focus was still on the documents.

His thin lips moved slightly, "Speak." "Mrs. Yardley..." Upon hearing these words, Maddox paused and suddenly raised his head to look at him.

This sharp gaze gave Sam chills down his spine, and he unconsciously took a step back. "Sir..." "What are you trying to say?" Maddox stared at him. He clearly heard Sam say "Mrs. Yardley" earlier.

He didn't think that he heard him wrongly.

"Sir, I just want to tell you that Mrs. Yardley is here, and she is waiting for you in the office." As soon as he finished his words, Maddox got up in front of him. Without packing up, he went straight out of the conference room.

"What the hell! No wonder Minerva didn't lettell him. Mr. Yardley is so crazy!" Sam quickly caught up with him, "Mr. Yardley." Maddox stopped, somewhat impatient. "Is there anything else?" "I just want to tell you that Mrs. Yardley arrived a few hours ago, but she toldnot to tell you so that you could concentrate on your meeting." Maddox couldn't help but frown initially, but it didn't take long for him to calm down. He seemed to have thought of something as the tip of his tongue pressed against the teeth, and his pupils deepened. "I see. Go and tidy up the conference room." After that, he left the meeting room.

Sam went to tidy the room up. After all, he was Maddox's assistant.

Maddox stomped back to the office. When he opened the door, he realized that the room was empty. Where was Minerva? He looked around and found that the door of the lounge was closed.

Thus, he walked over to the door. When he reached the door of the lounge, Maddox subconsciously slowed down. When he opened the door, he saw the figure that he had been missing.

Minerva was lying on the bed in the lounge. Her black hair was a mess, probably because she was asleep. She had no makeup on, and the quilt only covered half of her.

He stared at her for a while. Then, he walked over lightly and bent down to cover her with the quilt.

After covering her with the quilt, he couldn't stand up no matter how hard he tried. He attentively stared at the gorgeous woman, recalling what Sam said to him before. He couldn't help but reach out his hand and gently rubbed her cheek.

"Silly, why are you always looking out for me? Just tellwhen you come. You have been lying here alone for so long, aren't you silly?" Maddox knew he was obviously talking to himself. After all, she was fast asleep right now, and she couldn't hear what he was saying.

However, who would have thought that Minerva, who was initially asleep in the next second, would suddenly change her expression? She looked like she was in pain, and her delicate brows were tightly knitted together.

Maddox noticed that something was wrong. When he took a closer look, her forehead was covered in beads of sweat.

What was going on? Maddox called her nsoftly, "Minerva?" However, she did not hear him. Her breathing quickened as if she was having a nightmare.

He stared at her. The man was so worried that he did not know what to do. He didn't know where to place his hands as he did not dare to wake her up abruptly. He could only call her nsoftly. Minerva suddenly opened her eyes after he called her for the umpteenth time. She was so frightened that she cried out loudly when she saw him in front of her.

"Don't be scared!" He quickly wrapped his arm around her shoulders and whispered, "It's me. I'm here." She was speechless.

A familiar low voice rang in her ears as if it was coaxing her. Minerva was still puzzled for a long while. Her mind was still filled with the terrible images from her nightmare earlier.

Her heart was beating fast, and her breathing was unstable. What was worse, her eyelids were trembling. She had a bad feeling.

Was it because of how Sylvia cursed her before? "What's wrong?" Maddox reached out to help her wipe away the sweat on her forehead after seeing her calm down. When he saw that there was sweat on the tip of her nose, he lowered his head and tried to place his lips on hers.

Minerva cto her senses and avoided his lips.

It was fine if he wiped away her tears regularly, but now, he was trying to kiss her fear away. She could not accept it.

She was trying to avoid him. Maddox grabbed the back of her head with one hand and held her soft face with the other to prevent her from evading him.

"Don't..." She couldn't avoid him anymore, so she could only try to stop him with words.

He acted as if he didn't hear anything and kissed away the cold sweat on her face. The look in his dark eyes gradually deepened. When he was done and saw how she was beating herself up, he couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle. The content is on Tee look in his dakeyes novelenglish.net! "Why are you trying to avoid me? I'm not disgusted by you." She bit her lower lip and said, "I'm disgusted by myself." "Did you have a nightmare?" He cover and asked her as his forehead pressed against hers.

At the mention of this nightmare, Minerva once again felt the lingering fear in her heart. She nodded and suddenly reached out to hug Maddox.

"The dream was quite terrifying. I haven't fully gotten over it. Letlay here," she threw herself into his arms and said in a muffled voice.

He hugged her shoulder and whispered, "Okay. You can lay onall you want."

Then, he lowered his head and kissed her on the top of her head with his lips. "What was the nightmar@about? Gould you tellme more about it?" She e shook her head in his arms and did not say anything. Obviously, she did not want to think about it anymore. "If you don't want to talk about it, then don't think about it. You've been sleeping the entire morning. Are you hungry? I'll bring you out for lunch." She was nestled in his embrace. She still felt a little fatigued. When she woke up, her eyelids twitched violently. But now... she felt much better.

"I'm a little drowsy. I don't have much appetite."

After saying this, she suddenly felt that she was too coy. Why did it feel like she was acting like a spoiledn She child before Maddox? She was already an adult and a mother now. How could she... Thinking of this, she felt a little embarrassed. She really wanted to pretend that she did not say anything. "You have to eat. What if you get hungry? If you don't want to go out, then why don't we order in?" As he spoke, Maddox took out his phone and was prepared to make an order.

"What do you want to eat?" He scrolled to the menu and placed his phone in front of Minerva.
