After saying that, Maddox couldn't help but look at her and raise his eyebrows.

A moment later, his thin lips curved into a nice angle and he said in a low and hoarse voice, "You've become much smarter than I imagined."

Minerva rolled her eyes, thinking that she had always been smart.

Minerva gritted her teeth and pursed her lips. She looked back at him angrily and said, "So? She must have been good enough for Doctor Stark to like her. Furthermore, she couldn't have casually introduced her to you; it must be because her mother is a friend of Doctor Stark. If that's the case, are you still going to send her to court?"

"Definitely," Maddox answered without hesitation.

Minerva's pink lips parted. Suddenly, she didn't know what to say.

She didn't expect him to be so determined.

"But..." Maddox's gaze suddenly tightened on her as he said meaningfully, "Minerva, we haven't divorced yet, so you don't have to call Doctor Stark so unfamiliarly. She's my aunt, so of course... She's your aunt too."

"Who said that?" Minerva stood up and stepped away from him. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at him disdainfully. "You're not the only one who can decide this. Have you even told your aunt?"

"No," Maddox shook his head.

Minerva couldn't help but widen her eyes. "Nothing? Then what happens when your aunt eventually finds out?"

"What's wrong?" Maddox raised his eyebrows slightly. "Didn't you say that she isn't your aunt? Then why do you care about my aunt so much? What does it have to do with you, whether or not she finds out?"

Minerva didn't know how to refute.

A hint of amusement shone in Maddox's eyes. Other than that smile, he also looked at her with deep affection. It was as if he would not mind her no matter what she said.
