When Minerva arrived, she did not see Maddox anywhere. She could not help but ask in confusion.

"Didn't you say that he was waiting for me here? Why is he not around?"

The servant standing in front of the table hurriedly explained, "Young Madam, Sir went out to answer a phone call. Please take a seat first."

She respectfully pulled out a chair for her. The fear in her eyes was as if she was afraid of offending her. Minerva could only smile at her, "Thank you." The servant was dumbfounded, and a shy expression immediately appeared on her face.

She really didn't expect that Minerva was actually more cordial and polite than she thought. Young Master Yardley had such a good taste for women.

"Young Madam, let me pour you some fresh fruit juice."

"Okay, thank you."

After the glass of fruit juice arrived, Minerva took a small sip. In fact, this drink was not particularly delicious. It was different for people who actually liked juice, but she was not so fond of it.

However, it was a good thing that she was not a picky eater. Although she did not like the taste, she drank more than half of the glass.

Just then, Maddox finished the call and saw that Minerva was already at the dining table. He was stunned for a moment before walking over to sit beside her.

The servants looked at each other and left in unison.

"Isn't today Sunday? Do you still have work to do?" She asked as she looked at the phone in his hand.

He paused for a moment. His dark eyes avoided her gaze. He pursed his thin lips lightly, "It's not about work."

Not work?

She blinked. "Then, who called you?"

Thinking of the phone call just now, his lips curled up slightly. "Do you really want to know?"

Hearing this, Minerva showed her hand to him. She placed the diamond ring on her long, slender fingers and said, "You've already asked me to marry you. Even though you're not sincere, but... I can ask about your matters, right?."
