Maddox took a step forward and drew closer in a compelling manner.

Minerva had cooled off a little. She remained motionless and appeared very calm.

"What's the matter?" Janice felt a bit strange.

Minerva looked at Janice and smiled as soon as she heard her.

"Miss Lowell, well keep in touch later. I don't want to hold you back."

After Minerva finished her sentence, she looked in Maddox's direction and nodded her head. Then, she walked towards the other direction and left.

Janice was a little embarrassed. "Why don't... Why don't you stay for a drink before leaving?"

"This..."

"You purposely came to meet me. I'm sorry to disappoint you. Anyway... he's back. You can stay a little longer."

Minerva tightened her grip on her bag before she let go at once. She responded calmly, "Alright, then I'll accept your offer."

Minerva then ordered a glass of juice.

The restaurant served her the juice shortly. Minerva knew that she was merely being polite for staying there. Hence, she only took two or three sips of the juice.

Maddox, who was about to leave, chose to stay, sitting opposite her with a cold face.

Maddox looked terrible, yet Janice dared not say anything. They were all lost in thought.

At this moment, even though he looked frosty, he stared at Minerva with fiery eyes the whole time.

His solemn gaze roved over her face.

A few minutes later, Minerva stood up.
