Maddox did not say anything. His eyes were as dark as the night as he stared at her.

Under his gaze, Minerva felt her heart slowly sinking. She didn't want to say it but he forced her to.

She came clean. Although he said he wouldn't get angry, his gaze said otherwise...

It was obvious that he didn't trust her.

Minerva was angry and glared at him. She pushed him away and was about to leave.

However, before she could take another step, Maddox grabbed her wrist again. She was furious and shouted, "Let me go!"

He leaned over with his tall body and pressed her against the door.

"What's wrong? I've been waiting for you here for so long while you went to see another man. Am I not allowed to sulk and be jealous?"

She replied loudly, "You promised me that you wouldn't get angry at me."

"Did I yell at you? Or lose my temper at you?" He replied coldly.

Minerva couldn't answer.

She instantly froze where she was. When she saw Maddox's ice-cold expression, she felt wronged. The guilt she felt earlier vanished and the rest of it... was grievance.

She bit her lower lip as tears welled up in her eyes.

After a while, she closed her eyes and accepted her fate.

"Yes, you didn't lose your temper at me or shout at me. I'm the one who's making this a big deal, okay? I've said my piece. Can I go inside now?"

Maddox stared at her.

Looking at Minerva with her eyes lowered and a look of extreme grievance upon her face, he felt helpless.

The person who was left alone was him. He waited by her door like an idiot for so long. After she told him she was at a nearby supermarket, he ordered his staff to carry the presents inside. Meanwhile, he wen to the supermarket to look for her.

In the end, he couldn't find her. Now, she was telling him that she was actually at the hospital.

Not only had she gone to see another man, he was a man who had feelings for her.
