Bang!

After Minerva closed the car door, Maddox leaned over to fasten her seat belt. Minerva said in an annoyed tone, "I can do it myself."

Maddox ignored her. He leaned over and helped her fasten her seatbelt. She felt his warm breath on her neck. Minerva blinked her eyes. Looking at his straight nose and his lips, she suddenly had the urge to kiss him.

As soon as the thought flashed through her mind, Minerva's face turned pale with fright. She reached out and pushed Maddox away.

Maddox had just finished fastening her seatbelt when she pushed him, and it caused him to stumble back into the driver's seat. He frowned, "What's wrong with you?"

Minerva felt her ears getting hotter and she tightened her jaw, "Stay away from me. I don't need you to do these things for me."

It was something that she could do on her own, but why did he have to do it for her?

"I've already done it so what can you do about it?" Maddox asked, slightly annoyed. However, when he saw that the tips of her ears were red, he understood that she must have felt shy just then.

He didn't know why she felt shy, but knowing that she felt like that, he was inexplicably happy.

Minerva rolled down the window and shifted her gaze away from him, ignoring him.

If she continued to argue with him, he would only get more excited.

"So we're heading to the office?" Maddox asked.

Minerva nodded her head reluctantly.

Maddox's driving skill was good. There was still quite a distance to the office and Minerva soon felt a little dazed. She leaned closer to the window, letting the cold air calm the heat that was slowly building on her face. However, in less than a minute, Maddox rolled up the car window.

She was frustrated and she turned around to glare at him.

"Why did you roll up my window?"

"Don't you remember that you're still sick? The cold wind is not good for you!"
