She meant to say that he could only address her as Shelly during work, but other than that, they would have nothing to do with each other. Therefore, he didn't even have the right to call her name.

Maddox wore the same expression, but his eyes visibly darkened.

Maddox didn't agree nor deny her request.

All of a sudden, something came to his mind and he curled his lip.

"Maddox Yardley."

Minerva was dumbfounded. Why did he mention his name out of the blue?

"Gender male, hobby..." His gaze settled on her face, and then he said slowly, "Playing golf, bungee jumping."

Hearing that, if Minerva didn't know what he meant, then she was an idiot.

However, never did she expect that Maddox would suddenly introduce himself.

She wrote everything down at once as if she didn't know a thing about him.

Maddox stared at her tightly like a dormant beast as he spoke every word clearly. "I'm married."

Those two words were like bombs thrown down to Minerva's heart.

Minerva paused for a moment but continued jotting down the details after that. Was he trying to humiliate her by saying that he was married?
