Minerva felt dizzy. She hung on tightly, her arms around his neck. Her face paled due to the gastric pain. She bit her lower lip and looked at Maddox. "What are you doing?"

Maddox looked at her coldly and turned around with her in his arms.

His chest heaved as he walked. Minerva tried to push him away, but to no avail. The pain in her stomach came in waves, making her feel as if she was on the edge of completely passing out.

"Why are you still acting tough when you're in so much pain?" Maddox spoke solemnly. His face contorted with rage as he glared at Minerva.

Minerva was taken aback by this.

Why was he mad at her?

Did she offend him again?

After thinking about it, Minerva closed her eyes and weakly said, "It has nothing to do with you, Mr. Yardley. Please put me down."

Maddox sneered, "It has nothing to do with me? What should I do then, to make this something to do with me?"

Minerva was dumbstruck with terror.

What was he trying to do?

Why did he have to meddle in her business?

She tried to take a couple of deep breaths to relieve the gastric pain but her condition took a turn for the worse. Minerva refused to speak to him any longer. She retracted her arms and quietly pushed his chest away, breaking free from him without a word.

Maddox looked at her and said angrily, "Why do you still want to struggle in such a state?"

Minerva answered, "Let me go."

Even though her voice was soft and faint, her voice carried with it a sense of calmness and she was resolute.

"Ha." Maddox sneered coldly, and brought her to his car instead. He sat her down on the passenger seat, then bent over to buckle her seatbelt.
