After Maddox finished eating, Minerva packed her things and washed the thermos. She then placed it on the hospital table afterwards, and started looking at her phone.

It was already past eight o'clock. Looking out of the window, it was already completely dark.

Before coming here, Vera had promised Minerva that she would pick Beanie up and told her not to worry about him.

Maddox frowned when he saw her holding her phone. "Are you going back now?"

Upon hearing this, Minerva put away her phone. Then, she pursed her lips and said, "I'll be here to accompany you. Don't worry."

Maddox raised his eyebrows in surprise. He did not expect her to stay back for him voluntarily. He had thought... that he had to use his unique skill again.

"Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking." Minerva timely cut off his thoughts, as if she had seen right through him. "Isn't it just that same trick? You never get tired of it. Anyway, you're the one who got injured on my behalf. You know that I can't do anything to you now, so go ahead and take advantage of the fact that you still have that wound to use."

After saying that, Minerva sat down on a chair beside him. Perhaps she was bored, so she took out her mobile phone again and he didn't know who she was texting.

Maddox was exposed by her on the spot. However, he was not annoyed nor did he feel ashamed.

So what if she did see through him?

He knew that he was very despicable, but... as long as he could keep her by his side, how would it matter?

As long as the result was what he wanted, he was satisfied.

The emotion in Maddox's eyes deepened when he thought of that.

Although Minerva stayed, she did not pay him any attention, let alone look at him. She also didn't ask if his wounds hurt or not.
