"Did you know that the same tactic would not work twice?11

Minerva did not succeed this time.

Maddox had anticipated her moves. As such, he restrained her leg movement as she wanted to kick him.

Maddox was much stronger than her. Minerva was able to harm him earlier on because Maddox was engrossed in her fragrant scent. Besides, he didn't expect that she would catch him completely off guard by kicking him in the nuts.

It wouldn't work on him if she used the same tactics the second time.

Minerva scowled at him defiantly, "Let me go."

Maddox smiled wickedly, "What will you do after I let you go? Continue to kick me in the nuts? Do you think I'm so stupid that I'll fall for your trap?"

Minerva took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

She bit her lower lip, whispering, "Mr. Yardley, I promise I won't do it again. Please let me go. Can we discuss work?"

"Discuss work?" Maddox let out a chuckle. "Alright, let's talk about work."

Minerva initially thought that he had agreed to it, but he was still restraining her movements, causing her to be unable to move.

Minerva stretched out her hands and shoved him away, but to no avail.
