Unknowingly, Minerva's fears had dissipated in an instant.

Maddox rubbed a piece of dried serum from her chin and swiped the tip of her nose. "What's this?"

Fine, she didn't wash her face thoroughly. Minerva was a little embarrassed but she didn't answer Maddox's question. Instead, she turned her face away and looked at the mess on the dining table. However, before she could see clearly, Maddox had already stretched out his hand to cover her eyes.

"Don't look at it. I'll send you upstairs first. You can rest for a while."

After saying that, he didn't wait for her answer. He just picked her up and carried her upstairs.

The more afraid she was, the more curious she became. Minerva couldn't help but want to take a look at the dining table. As if he had already expected this, Maddox grabbed onto her head and asked, "Why do you want to look at it? Don't look at it if you're scared!"

Maddox brought her back to the room and placed her on the soft bed.

"Stay here and don't worry. I'll call you when I'm done."

After finishing his words, Maddox left the room.

After he left, Minerva blinked in a daze. She laid down on the large bed and hugged the quilt.

All this time, Maddox had been really nice to her.

But... Just who would play such a prank on her?

Judging by the recent events, the dead rabbit from the first day, as well as the dead rat from that day's meal, it was probably done by the same person.

However, the man who had delivered the box suddenly committed suicide. On the surface, it looked like a suicide, but whether he actually did it was still a mystery.

As for the people who had followed her the other day, when they were hiding in the dark and listening to their conversation, they didn't sound cautious at all. However, why did they suddenly return using the same route? It was as if they were being ordered by someone.

However, who was this person?
