Bang!

What she did was out of Maddox's expectation, and the bowl of soup in his hand fell to the ground. The sound of porcelain hitting the ground shook Minerva's heart. At the same time, it also smashed Minerva's heart.

She turned her back towards Maddox and shouted again.

"I don't need you to pretend to be like that. I can take care of myself when I'm sick. It's none of your business even if I die of sickness. I don't need you to feed me soup. I don't need anything from you!" Silence greeted her.

Minerva knew that Maddox was probably seriously hurt by her.

Although she was angry and she shouted, tears flowed down her cheeks and she couldn't stop them.

She didn't want Maddox to please her.

Maddox was the total opposite of how he used to be. He was a favored son who ran the world business and he never pleased anyone.

She didn't want to see him like that.

Minerva wiped the tears with the back of her hand and laid back down with her back facing Maddox. She then pulled the quilt over herself, trying to shut out all the sounds. Silence filled the room for a long time before a sound could be heard.

It was the sound of porcelain fragments colliding with each other. The sound was very faint, but it was enough to be heard clearly in the quiet room.

Was Maddox cleaning up the mess she caused? Minerva's eyes filled with tears again and she bit her lower lip tightly.

Why did he do that? Why?

She had already treated him like that. Why didn't he just turn around and leave already?

Why did he choose to stay on and be treated in such a way?

Minerva closed her eyes and tried her best to ignore the sounds. Finally, when the room became quiet again, Minerva quietly poked her head out from underneath the quilt.

She took a deep breath, sat up, and found that the floor had been cleaned.

Treating Maddox like that didn't make her happy at all. On the contrary, she felt her heart tighten.

However, she could never bring herself to smile in front of Maddox.
