Minerva turned pale and before she could react, she was held down against the car.

Against her back was the ice-cold body of her car, and against her front was the man's warm chest.

Minerva wanted to cry out for help but she smelled a familiar scent. She then stared in a daze at the man who was right before her.

Maddox...

His beautiful eyes stared intensely into hers, like a nocturnal predator who lurked in the night.

Passionate and fierce.

This was the first time they had been so close to each other since they met.

Her breathing trembled but she suppressed the fear in her heart and said coldly, "Mr. Yardley, please behave yourself!"

However, Minerva could not help to think, wasn't he supposed to be dining with Janice at this moment? Why would he follow her?

Maddox stared at her in silence.

He slowly lowered his head as if he wanted to kiss her.

Minerva's pupils constricted with fear. Just as his lips were about to touch hers, she said nonchalantly, "What do you think you are doing?" Maddox paused. The distance between them was so close that his lips would touch hers if he were to say something.

"Ha..." He laughed from the bottom of his throat. Minerva could feel his warm breath on her face.

He held her chin with one hand. "What do I think I am doing? Can't you see?"

Minerva held her breath.
