The plane finally arrived at two o'clock in the morning.

Perhaps because she had been sitting down for too long, Minerva was still feeling a little dizzy when she got off the plane. Maddox, on the other hand, was in high spirits. He felt refreshed. Compared to him, Minerva was in much worse shape.

This was because he had been sleeping with his head on her shoulder. He had treated her shoulder as a pillow instead and it caused her entire arm to go numb. However, she could not bear to complain one bit.

When they were about to arrive, Maddox woke up. Seeing her bitter face, he pulled her into his arms and asked her to sleep for a while.

Minerva thought to herself, "You've practically crushed my arm. How am I supposed to sleep?"

It was probably because she was tired. Although she was complaining in her heart, she actually fell into a deep sleep very quickly.

However, before she could finish her dream, the plane began to land.

As the plane was landing, Minerva woke up. She felt that her palm was warm and she realized that Maddox had been holding her hand tightly.

She lifted her head and glanced right into Maddox's eyes.

When they got off the plane, he held her in his arms. They didn't have much luggage anyway. He wrapped her up in his overcoat. She was so dizzy that she could barely walk.

Maddox arranged for a private car to pick them up. After she got in the car, Minerva closed her eyes in a daze.

"Take us to settle down at the hotel first. Did you prepare the toiletries and clothes?"

Lying in Maddox's embrace, Minerva could still feel the vibrations in his chest as he spoke.

"Yes, Sir. The hotel room is ready for you."

"Good."

Maddox lowered his head to look at the woman in his arms. It was rare to see her so obedient. He could not help but reach out and push her hair back. Then, he lowered his head and planted a kiss on her forehead. He said softly, "Go to sleep. We will be at the hotel soon."

"Mm." Minerva nodded and closed her eyes.

She felt reassured because she knew that he was there. She did not have to worry that no one would wake her up even if they had arrived at the hotel. Even if she did not wake up, she would probably already be in the hotel room when she did.
