"You... Hmm." Minerva wanted to defend herself, but the moment she parted her lips, his lips would press down against hers again, forcefully snatching away her breath and blocking all of her words. In the darkness, everything was under his control.

Minerva slowly came back to her senses and pushed him away with all her might.

Maddox staggered back a few steps, but he quickly came up to her again. However, by this time, Minerva had quickly found the light switch beside her and switched it on.

The room was restored to its original brightness.

Minerva saw him clearly, only to find that he was wearing a silver mask, and the decoration at its corner looked a little familiar.

Maddox was flustered for a moment when the sudden brightness blinded his eyes. However, he quickly came to his senses and narrowed his eyes under the mask. He looked at Minerva from head to toe but did not say anything.

After looking at each other for a while, Minerva frowned and said, "The decoration on your mask..."

However, Maddox leaned over and looked at her with an evil look in his eyes. "Are you going to ask who I am?"

Minerva went speechless.

He drew closer to her. "It looks like you haven't completely forgotten me even after five years."

What he said... Minerva looked as if someone had seen through her thoughts. She raised her head and glared at him, "Why are you dressed like this? If I remember correctly, you aren't on tonight's banquet guests list, right?" "Oh?" The smile on Maddox's lips deepened and his gaze became even more devilish. "You've even deliberately taken note of whether I'm invited or not?"

Minerva went speechless once again.

It was probably due to the fact that she was so tipsy that she kept allowing Maddox to take advantage of her.

Thinking of this, she simply did not speak as she stared at him angrily.

However, she didn't know that after being implored by Maddox, her lips were slightly red and swollen, and her gaze was somewhat dazed. It made her look more charming. The gown she was wearing enhanced her beauty as well.
