His words were clear. Minerva had doubts at first, but now, she was certain. She narrowed her eyes and sized him up.

"You've already found out, but you're not going to tell me?"

Maddox looked at her calmly and answered, "It's not good for you to know too much."

"But I'm the person involved. I have the right to know, don't I?"

"So what? What can you do after finding out? Will you confront the person or seek revenge?"

Minerva couldn't refute. She looked at him for a while and then burst into laughter out of anger.

"So, you think that it's good for me. It's not good for me to know too much, which was why you chose to hide it from me. That's why you're not telling me the truth, right?"

"Minerva."

"Just tell me, am I right or wrong?"

Maddox was really afraid of her. He sighed and leaned over. "Do you really want to know? Even if the trouble has been solved, do you still want to know?"

She clenched her fists and nodded firmly. "I have the right to know."

Of course, she had to know who it was. Otherwise, it felt annoying that she didn't know who was pestering her.

Upon seeing the determination in her eyes and the stubborn look on her face, Maddox knew that if he didn't tell her, she would definitely find out herself.

After thinking for a while, he gave her a hint.

"Actually, you know this person."

"Of course. Would the person hurt me if he doesn't know me?"

Maddox then continued, "It's an old friend of yours."

"Old friend?" Minerva was still wondering who her old friend was. She didn't have that many old friends. After thinking for a long time, she couldn't think of anyone who was so evil that would want to harm her in this way.
