Minerva froze for a second when she heard his sudden soft voice. She then looked up at Maddox.

What's wrong with this person?

It was so peculiar for him to react in such a manner.

Minerva pulled her hand away and did not agree to it.

However, Maddox reached out and helped her up. He was demanding even though his actions were gentle.

Minerva was at a loss for words.

Her eyes were burning with rage as she glared at Maddox.

But Maddox paid no attention to her anger. He held a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other. Then, he took a spoon of soup and brought it to her lips.

"Don't look at me, eat well."

Minerva nearly freaked out when she heard Maddox's words, but she couldn't yell loudly even if she threw a fit as she was feeling weak.

"Who's looking at you?"

She was glaring at him, wasn't she? Did he get it wrongly? Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Maddox's smile deepened when he saw her throwing a fit. He always felt that she had been too distant and ethereal these days. However, unexpectedly, he could get closer to her because of her illness. Maddox said lowly, "Okay, you are not looking at me. Can you just drink the soup?"

His words startled Minerva for a moment. Did she hear it wrongly?

Why did she sense a hint of doting in Maddox's tone? When she studied his expression, she could even tell that he was trying to butter her up.
