Boom!

Lightning struck.

The person sleeping on the bed suddenly sat up and tugged on her quilt when she heard the thunder roaring.

The lights in the room were off, and Minerva was walking in total darkness. When she finally found the door, she swung it open.

The lights in the corridor reflected into the room, shining on her delicate bare face.

Just as she took a step forward, two men blocked her way.

"Miss Hanover!"

Minerva stared at the two men in front of her in surprise. Her pale lips moved as she said, "Both of you..."

"It's not safe outside. Mr. Hanover asked us to guard your room and protect you."

To protect her?

A faint sneer appeared on her lips as she said, "Are you here to protect me, or monitor me?"

The men were embarrassed by what she said. They looked at each other, and one of them stepped forward boldly. "Miss Minerva, President Hanover asked us to stay here because he wanted to protect you." It was monitoring her as well as for her own protection.

They were keeping watch over her, not allowing her to leave the room. If she went out at that moment, she was definitely going to fall sick because of the heavy downpour, but...

Minerva bit her lower lip and said coldly, "No matter what it is, get out of the way. I have something to do."

The two men were speechless.

"I'm sorry, Miss Minerva. President Hanover specifically ordered us to have you rest in your room and not go out before the sun rises."
