Minerva paused, then quickly turned around and placed the order.

"Since you don't mind, I'll order the meal then." After that, she turned around and headed upstairs. As she walked up the stairs, she said, "You can just sit around. Remember to collect the food when the order arrives. I'm going to get changed."

Minerva went upstairs and entered her room. In order to prevent Maddox from entering like last time, she locked the door from the inside. She didn't want him to appear in her room while she was changing.

After all, he was a lascivious man.

After putting on her clothes, Minerva washed her face. In the mirror, she noticed that her skin had been dry recently, so she applied a face mask. When it was almost time, she went downstairs.

As soon as she went downstairs, the doorbell rang.

It seemed that the delivery had arrived.

"I'll get it." Maddox got up and went to the door.

Since he was collecting the delivery, Minerva went to the kitchen to prepare the plates and cutlery. Maddox then placed the delivery on the dining table. She looked at him and said, "Go wash your hands first. I'll serve the food."

Maddox looked at her with a deep gaze and nodded. Then, he turned around and entered the washroom.

Seeing that he was going to wash his hands, Minerva opened the takeaway box. As soon as the container was opened, something jumped straight at her face. She stepped back vigilantly but failed to control herself from screaming. In the process, she accidentally knocked over the food.

At the same time, she couldn't keep her balance and fell onto the cold floor uncontrollably.

The moment that Maddox turned on the tap in the washroom, he heard Minerva's scream. Without hesitation, he rushed out of the washroom.

The first thing he noticed was Minerva sitting on the ground. He quickly rushed forward to help her up.

"Are you alright?"

Minerva stared at the thing that had popped out of the food. She was still in a state of shock.
