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

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.

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