"Hi," Zaydon suddenly raised his hand and greeted Minerva.

She was stunned for a moment. He looked friendly, but as for the lady next to him...

She and Monica looked at each other. She could sense a strong hostility from Monica's gaze.

For some reason, Minerva suddenly had a hunch that this woman was the same woman who had answered her call that night and told her Maddox was in the shower.

She was dressed very fabulously, but Minerva was...

Minerva's gaze paused for a moment, and then her lips curled into a smile.

"There's no need to chase them away in a hurry. Since they're here, you should treat them well."

Maddox looked at her in surprise, "Minerva?"

He frowned. For a moment, he couldn't figure out what she was thinking, "Why would she ask me to treat them well?"

"I'm going to wash up," Minerva said as she tightened her grip on her coat. She then smiled at Maddox before turning around and entering the room.

After entering the room, Minerva quickly threw off Maddox's coat and went into the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face. Then, she quickly got dressed and put on some makeup. Minerva checked her makeup one last time before pulling her hair back. Then, she got up and headed out.

When she pushed the door open again, she saw the Dormer siblings sitting down on the couch.

Zaydon's posture was relaxed. He was holding a cup in his hand and his expression was one of indifference. When he heard the door open, he instantly turned to look at Minerva.

With just one look, Zaydon's eyes lit up in amazement and then he said, "Monica, I think you'd better give up."

Hearing this, Monica straightened her back, "Why should I give up? Maddox isn't married yet. I can fight for my own happiness."

When Maddox saw her, he realized that she had changed into a new dress and put on makeup. He could tell she put in a lot of effort into her makeup too.
