That man didn't love her at all.

Since he no longer cared about her, why would she... do something hurtful for his sake?

"Do you regret it?" A cold voice came from behind her. Minerva turned around and saw Maddox. She smiled faintly and said, "Regretful for what?"

Maddox stared at her with a calm face. After a while, he said, "I didn't mean to let Janice go."

"I know," Minerva nodded. "But her mother and your aunt still hope that you can go easier on her."

"What about you?" Maddox suddenly changed the topic and looked at her. "What do you want me to do? Do you also want me to show mercy to Janice?"

Minerva was silent.

Why was this person always able to bring her into the problem? She looked at him silently for a moment and then said, "Don't you already know my answer?" Hearing this, Maddox couldn't help raising his thin lips. Then, he raised his hand and laid a finger on her face, gently tucking a piece of stray hair behind her ear. "What should I do? I know that I can't let her go, but my wife is kind, so I have to let her go this time."

Minerva was speechless.

She took a step back and avoided Maddox's continuous touch.

Her hair which was between his fingertips disappeared and he felt a sense of loss and disappointment in his heart.

He paused with his hand still raised midair and did not retract his hand for a long while.

Minerva thought for a moment, then walked behind him and asked, "How's your injury? You've been out for so long. Can you endure it?"

Upon hearing this, Maddox slowly put down his hand. He was not in a hurry to answer Minerva. Instead, he turned around and stared at her with an intense flame in his eyes. "Are you concerned about me?"

She didn't speak.
