Minerva kept quiet.

He didn't want the pillows she got for him; instead he wanted her to sit and become his human cushion.

"F*ck, he must be dreaming!"

Minerva complained in her heart but she did not resist. Since her legs were covered with soft pillows and there were also pillows on her back, it was not uncomfortable for her to sit like this. Hence, she just let him lean on her like that for a while.

In fact, it was not comfortable for Maddox to lean like that either. At least it was much better than sitting straight up. Plus, every breath he took was full of the smell of this woman. He felt perfectly satisfied.

The ward was quiet for a moment. Minerva looked down at the back of the young man in front of her. He was lying face down on his stomach, so she could see his back easily. Minerva closed her eyes as she thought of the wound she saw earlier in the afternoon.

She stopped herself. "I'd better not think about it anymore. I'll just sleep."

She was ready to let him lay on her like that for the whole night, so she simply leaned back and tilted her head. She closed her eyes and soon, she fell asleep.

Maybe it was because what happened earlier was too terrifying. Hence, not long after Minerva fell asleep, her dreams were filled with the images of Maddox rushing over to block the sulfuric acid for her. In her dream, Maddox was hurt much more badly than he actually was in reality. That had scared Minerva badly. She was so nervous that she broke out in a cold sweat and opened her eyes abruptly. Her breathing was a little rapid. Minerva found that her back was wet, but the ward was particularly quiet. Minerva looked down and found that Maddox was sleeping soundly on the pillow placed on her legs. Minerva didn't dare to disturb him. She turned her head slightly to look at the watch on her wrist. It was already past three o' clock in the middle of the night. Was it already so late? But it was still long before the morning came.

She looked down at Maddox again.

From her point of view, she could see the shadows of his long eyelashes around his eyes under the light. Because of his injury, Maddox's face was a little pale; even his lips were bloodless. He slept there like an extremely fragile patient.

Looking at him, he was so fragile. However, interestingly, he could still manage to use his own injury to make her stay.

"Maddox, what on earth are you trying to do?" She thought.

Using such a tactic to make her stay there. Just lying on her, he already showed such a satisfied expression.
