Minerva stopped in her tracks and was stunned for a few seconds. She jerked off the suit jacket that covered her head and turned back.

The moment she turned around, she met Maddox's eyes. They were cold and deep.

Her lips slightly opened. She wanted to say something... but her nose started to become sore.

He frowned and ordered, "Go in."

She bit her lower lip and looked back at the dark gate behind her. She gritted her teeth and uttered, "The light is out. It's too dark inside. I don't dare to walk alone."

In fact, this was a random lie she made up. In order to save money, the landlord usually turned off the lights after going to sleep, and the street lamps outside couldn't shine in. She normally did not work overtime, and she wouldn't go out at midnight.

It was her first time encountering such a situation.

However, if she was required to walk alone, she could just turn on the torch in her phone to light up the place.

However, she didn't want to do it.

This was such a good opportunity. She had to seize the chance to get Maddox to stay with her for a little longer.

After saying that, she looked at him. Her gaze was careful.

This kind of expression...

A hint of a smile appeared in his eyes.

Although her eyes were cautious, it was also obvious.

It seemed like they were saying, "Send me back."

He felt a little helpless. He did not understand why he would have these kinds of feelings toward this woman. However, his thin lips had already spoken before he could react. "Lead the way."

Upon hearing this, she was overjoyed. She knew that he was willing to send her off. She started walking contentedly. He locked the car and followed behind her as they entered. On the way back, her pace was very slow. Every step she took was very small.

She only needed a short while to complete the journey originally, but she took a long time to finish it now.
