The two of them fell silent again and they soon arrived at the neighborhood.

Before getting out of the car, Minerva suddenly asked, "Don't you have a car?"

Upon hearing this, Maddox paused and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's my car. I need to use it sometime."

Maddox immediately furrowed his brows. "Am I not here? I've said that I won't leave your side. Tell me where you're going and I'll give you a ride." Minerva frowned and thought about what she was going to do. She then continued, "It's not convenient. I can't ask you to go everywhere with me." Maddox raised an eyebrow. "Do you want to get rid of me?"

"It's not like that. Aren't you living nearby? You can ask Sam to drive your car over and you can also use your own car to pick me up in the future." Minerva suddenly paused. After realizing what she had just said, she suddenly turned her head.

"Forget it. You can do whatever you want."

Then, she opened the door and got out of the car. After a few steps, she heard Maddox getting out of the car and followed her.

"I'll ask Sam to drive the car here tomorrow."

Minerva ignored him and continued to walk forwards.

When they arrived at the elevator, Maddox suddenly asked her, "Are you satisfied now?"

Minerva still ignored him. She pursed her lips and looked elsewhere.

She didn't want to admit that she was the one who had said those words just now.

"Are you shy?"

Minerva quickly snapped, "You'd better shut up."

Maddox's gloomy mood was instantly swept away and the smile on his face widened.

These days, he had used the excuse of protecting her in order to occupy her time and space.

He knew that it was despicable of him to have taken advantage of the situation.

However, he couldn't control himself. He was extremely selfish and wanted to get close to her, no matter what had happened between the two of them in the past.

He didn't want to experience regret again. He didn't know if he could bear the mental torture for another five years.
