Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

On the other side, Minerva finally coaxed Maddox to sleep.

It was hard to imagine that a grown man like him would also need to be coaxed to sleep.

Maddox hadn't been able to sleep well for the past few days. Probably because he was attacked and tortured mentally, it becdifficult for him to fall asleep. Moreover, even if he managed to fall asleep, he would wake up from his nightmares at any time.

His condition was, in fact, quite serious. It wouldn't be a big deal if it only lasted a few days.

However, it would be detrimental to his mental state if this kept on.

Knowing what Maddox was going through, Minerva felt both annoyed and distressed.

What annoyed her was that he had done those things without informing her. What distressed her was that he was so mentally beaten up. He was such a strong man, but he still ended up like this. She could only imagine what he had gone through to arrive at such a state.

Therefore, the only thing Minerva could do was to coax him. However, the rascal had taken advantage of the situation and touched her waist on and off. Finally, he said in a hoarse voice, "I miss you. I can only sleep if you kiss me." Minerva didn't say anything.

She really wanted to slap him on the face and ask when he had becso shameless.

But when she saw his pale face and thin lips, Minerva didn't have the heart to do so. She only lowered her head obediently and kissed him.

Minerva originally intended to only give him a peck on his lips to comfort him.

However, as soon as her lips touched his, Maddox immediately becbold. He put his hand on the back of her head and kissed her.

"Oh." Minerva's eyes widened. She did not expect him to be so shameless, so she pushed him away. Maddox let out a muffled groan and let out a sound from between his lips.

"I'm a patient now. How do you have the heart to push me?" Maddox asked.

A patient? Minerva snickered in her heart.

Would there be a patient as strong as him? However, his thin lips were slightly cold and dry. Furthermore, Minerva had also missed him during this time, so she wasn't able to refuse him.

After that, the two of them cuddled for a long time. Since there were people outside and Maddox was not feeling well, they didn't do too much.

Before Minerva went out of the room, she headed to the bathroom first to make sure she was presentable. When she cout, she heard the kitchen door close. "Who's in the kitchen?" She asked.

She then looked at the two people in the living room.

Quill and Sam.

She immediately knew who was in there.

Minerva remembered that Vera had a seriously high fever a few days ago, so they hadn't let her cook. She didn't expect that she would go to the kitchen again so soon. Minerva quickly walked over and opened the kitchen door.

"Vera, cout." Vera was shocked and asked, "What?" "Maddox hired a nanny. What are you trying to do? Are you trying to take away the nanny's job?" Vera was speechless.

She kept silent for a while and said faintly, "I'm not used to her cooking. I want to cook for myself." It was Minerva's turn to remain silent.

"Anyway, it's been many days since I recovered from my fever. I'm feeling totally fine now, and there's nothing wrong with my body. Cooking won't makefall sick again, so why are you anxious?" Vera said with a smile, then continued, "Minerva, don't you want to eat the food I cook? You won't have the chance to eat it again after I'm gone in the next few days." "You're going back?" Minerva recalled the words she had said to Maddox by the swimming pool.

She said that she would go back to Hildago with him.

Thinking of this, Minerva smiled and said, "Who says I won't be able to eat it? If I can't eat it here then I'll eat it when I'm at Hildago." "Huh?" Vera said with a look of surprise. She was quite taken back.

"You mean... you're going back to Hildago too? What about Young Master Yardley? Are you going to leave him here?" "Stupid!" Minerva couldn't help but reach out her hand and give her a flick on the forehead. "If I'm returning to Hildago, I'll definitely bring him along." "Would Master Collins... agree?" Vera asked hesitantly.

In her opinion, Jarold really wasn't an easy person to handle. After all, he didn't seem to be very satisfied with Minerva. Judging from Jarold's character, if Minerva wanted to bring Maddox back to Hildago, he, definitely wouldn't agree and would even lock them up.

At the mention of Jarold, a hint of worry appeared on Minerva's face.

That's right. After Maddox agreed to follow her back, Minerva had thought of this matter. She felt that Jarold would definitely object.

However, she was not the kind person who would back down because others did not agree with her decisions. However, the person they had to deal with was Maddox's grandfather; he was also his savior.

If it wasn't for him, Maddox wouldn't even be here.

So... what was she worried about? Afraid that this would be hard for Jarold? He was already in his eighties after all. What he wanted to do most was probably to spend more twith his children and grandchildren.

When she looked at Jarold's face when he saw Abigail and Beanie, she could tell that this old man longed for familial love and companionship.

Perhaps...

An idea formed in Minerva's mind.

Moments later, Minerva smiled gently and said, "There's always a solution to any problem. Let's just face each day at a time." Vera paused for a moment then said, "When did you becso carefree? I'm really not used to it."

Minerva walked in and said, "I've always been such a carefree person. fee It's just that you didn't understandin the past. Alright, if you insist on cooking, then I'll help you." "You are a pregnant woman. It's better if you don't. I am afraid that Young Master Yardley will killwith his glare if he finds out." Although she objected, Vera still let her in.

It had been a long tsince they had been so close to each other and were able to chat with ease.

In the middle of the conversation, Vera suddenly told Minerva about Sam.

She couldn't help but complain.

"Don't you think he's out of his mind? He askedto put in a good word for him and help him with hiso m year-end bonus, but he seemed to be En: angry atat the stime. Don't you think it's strange for him to be like that? Does he still wantto help him?" Minerva remained quiet.

She stopped what she was doing and looked at Vera who was complaining.

Was this girl really that clueless? It was so obvious, yet she wasn't able to sense anything.

For a moment, Minerva did not know what to say. She really pitied Sam She could guarantee that if he kept it going like this, Vera would never realize his feelings for her. Minerva darted her eyes around and contemplated whether to say a few words so that this fool would not be so clueless.

Just as she was making up her mind, Vera suddenly raised her hand and slammed the kitchen knife onto the garlic with a bang and squashed it.

Vera said, "Also, it's strange. I think he's jealous... But I don't have any evidence." Minerva glanced at her and asked tentatively, "Perhaps he really is jealous?"
