Instantly, everything stood still and it was pindrop silence.

Maddox narrowed his eyes at Minerva, who stood in front of Benedict. "You're protecting him?"

The look in his eyes was inexplicable, like dark pools of water. She couldn't help but shudder.

Although Benedict was on the ground, when he saw Minerva standing in front of him, he smiled contentedly.

His smile was provoking Maddox, who frowned and said, "You really are something, being all weak in front of a woman?"

"Enough, Maddox!" Minerva chided him loudly. "You've already beaten him up. He hasn't retaliated even once. Do you still want to humiliate him more?"

After that, she took a deep breath and turned around to help Benedict up.

When he got up, Benedict deliberately held onto Minerva's wrist. He put most of his weight onto her as he slowly stood up.

The sight of this infuriated Maddox. He was like a ticking bomb, ready to explode.

He stepped forward and knocked Benedict to the ground with another punch. Minerva's eyes widened. She had no time to help him up. As she turned her head and was about to argue with Maddox, he picked her up by the waist.

"Hey, what are you doing? Put me down!" Her waist was pressing against Maddox's shoulder and it hurt a little. She hit him on the back repeatedly.

"Shut up. My woman is not allowed to help other men up, especially a hypocrite like Benedict."

He carried her and walked quickly out of the parking lot.

As their voices faded, the injured Benedict was still lying on the cold floor. He looked at the ceiling above his head and felt the coldness from his back as if he had fallen into a bottomless pit of hell. After a long moment, he smiled again. His blood was dripping from his mouth; he looked sinister and terrifying.

"Maddox!"

Benedict shouted and clenched his fist, his nails digging deep into his flesh.

"Put me down. Where are you taking me? Maddox!" While Minerva was still shouting, he pushed her into the car. He followed her into the car and squeezed his way in.
