Somewhere in her dazed state, Minerva could hear Maddox's voice. She struggled to open her eyes and looked at him. As expected, she vaguely saw Maddox's handsome face. However, at this moment, his handsome face was filled with anger and worry.

She looked at him with uncertainty. After a long while, she asked, "Maddox? You... Why are you here again? Didn't I tell you to leave?"

As she spoke, even Minerva's breath was boiling hot.

Maddox suppressed the anger in his heart and placed his arm around her. Then, he entered the house and closed the door behind him.

Minerva was unhappy to see him come in. She pushed him away.

"What are you doing here? Get out!"

Maddox did not reply to her. Instead, he held her in his arms with a cold expression and walked in. Just by holding her like that, he could feel how warm her body was. "Get out, get out!" Minerva shouted.

"Stop it!" Maddox retorted. He lowered his head and looked at her with sharp eyes.

Minerva was stunned. She was probably shocked by the look in his eyes just then. She only came back to her senses after a long while. Then, she started to make a bigger fuss.

"Maddox, what gives you the right to do this? Didn't I ask you to leave? Why did you come back? Do you think that I will forgive what you did to me that time so long as you pursue me like this?"

Minerva shouted those words with all her might. After shouting, she got so tired that she started to pant. She had already lost all her strength.

However, she still wanted to push Maddox away.

Maddox was annoyed by her so he directly picked her up and walked inside.

Minerva continued to struggle in his embrace, but how could her strength match Maddox's? He carried her upstairs and then placed her on her large and soft bed.

Then, Maddox straightened up and looked around. After that, he turned around and went into the bathroom.

Initially, he wanted to soak a towel in cold water to cool Minerva down first. However, the moment he entered the bathroom, he saw Minerva's clothes that she wore from the night before in the laundry basket. A set of red lace lingerie was on the top of the laundry. Maddox could see it at first glance as he entered the bathroom.
