In the next second, Minerva saw that the smile on Quill's face disappeared, and he seemed to be a little surprised.

Minerva had expected this reaction of his. She lowered her head and bit her lower lip lightly. After a long while, she asked in a low voice, "Do you know what I mean?"

He was not smiling at this moment. His eyes were indifferent as he looked at her.

"What do you mean?"

He clearly knew what she meant, but he still pulled a long face and asked her the question. Minerva looked up at him and saw the cold dazzling light emanating in his calm eyes. This was... a sign of anger. If she continued...

"I want to register my marriage with Maddox."

In the end, she spoke bluntly.

A dangerous look appeared in Quill's eyes. "Do you know what you're talking about?"

"Yes." She raised her head and gave him a deep look. "Since I've already said it, there's no changing it anymore. Quill, I'm an adult and have the right to decide my own matters." "What do you mean? Are you blaming me for meddling in your affairs in the past? Or do you not want me to interfere in your business anymore?" He said with a faint smile on his lips, mocking himself.

Upon seeing this self-mocking smile, she felt a little upset. She lowered her eyes and spoke in a soft tone.

"Quill, I know that you have always been great to me, but..."

He interrupted, "I only want to ask you one question. Have you forgotten what he did to you in the past?"

She was speechless.

She didn't. How could she forget?

Some memories were engraved in her bones, and they could not be erased even for a lifetime.

"There are many things that have consequences to it. Back then, I also did him wrong, and both of us offset each other."

Hearing this, Quill's expression changed and he suddenly came forward.

"So you two cancel each other out? Are you so easy to trick? What did you say before you returned? What about now?" "Quill!" Her voice became louder and she took a step back. "This isn't a trick. This is my own decision." "So? You didn't come to discuss this with me today. You just came to inform me, didn't you?"

She was stupefied.

How was she supposed to answer that? She did want to be with Maddox forever. Indeed, she wanted to take her account book to register for marriage.
