His dark, fierce stare frightened everyone. No one knew what was going on. Everyone looked at Maddox awkwardly, not knowing what to feel in the moment.

Sam thought this strange and followed their gaze.

At the end of his line of sight, he finally spotted Minerva sitting downstairs. With one hand rested on the table, she spoke sternly to the person across from her. Her moist, rosy pink lips glistened brightly under the light, and her cold, distant eyes emanated seduction like no other.

Sam then quickly shot a glance at Young Master Yardley.

"It's her again!"

It was no wonder Young Master Yardley was distracted and embarrassed himself.

"Young Master Yardley... If you are interested in this woman, why don't we invite her upstairs to have a chat?"

Maddox was quiet and no one knew what to say. A courageous soul then boldly made a statement, but upon seeing that no response was given by Maddox, he got up immediately and walked downstairs. After a few more people left, Maddox raised the wine glass in his hand. He took a sip and curled his lips.

He thought about just how she would react to it.

"Young Master Yardley!" Sam, who was behind Maddox tensed up at once. "Wouldn't they harass Miss Shelly?"

Upon hearing this, Maddox raised his eyebrows and shot him an icy glance.

Sam immediately felt a chill down his spine, and dared not to speak anymore. He could only silently step aside and watch Minerva through the casement window.

"Well, the service of this restaurant is a little slow. We have been here for so long, yet not even a single dish has been served." Vera continued playing her mobile game while stretching her hand out to press or her stomach.

At this instance, Beanie raised his head. "Auntie Vera, hide behind me, or else you will be defeated soon."

After hearing this, Vera paused and then began cursing furiously.

"F*ck, I only pressed on my stomach for a while and this b*stard attacks me? Do you think I am that easily bullied? Beanie, come on, chop his head off!"
