It was so obvious.

Minerva touched the mark and wanted to take some concealer to cover it up. However, when they left, she realised she hadn't brought anything along. She only had her phone in her hand. "Where's my bag?"

"It's probably at home," Maddox replied, a satisfied smile on his lips.

She thought for a moment as she touched the hickey. Then, she turned to look at him.

"Did you do it on purpose?"

"You're my woman. Is there a problem with leaving a mark on my woman's body?" He said, and his tone suddenly became a little serious, "This way, no one else will try to snatch you away from me. You're now Mrs. Yardley."

She said, "No, I'm not. We're not registered, nor did we have a wedding together."

Maddox suddenly fell silent as if her words choked him.

Hearing his silence, Minerva thought he would answer her, but after some time, he still didn't say a word.

She was a little disappointed. She thought Maddox would offer to bring her for registration immediately or give her a ceremony, or a proposal or something.

She had nothing to hide it with. Others would see it.
