When Maddox returned to the office and passed by the secretary's office, he heard a voice coming from inside. Upon listening, he realized it was the voice of his assistant.

"Why was she shouting so urgently? What happened?" He thought.

He furrowed his brows, lifted his hand, and pushed the door open.

After looking around, he only saw Minerva lying on the couch. The sound he heard a moment ago was from her.

He walked towards her unconsciously. Even he himself did not understand why he did that.

When he was in front of her, he saw that her delicate brows were knitted tightly. Her pale forehead was covered with cold sweat, soaking a few strands of hair on her forehead. Her pink lips were moving slightly with a painful expression.

Was she... having a nightmare?

His fingertips moved. He bent down to unwind her wet hair with his fingers.

"No, come back..."

Minerva, who was having nightmares, let out a cry suddenly. Maddox, who was right in front of her, was startled. He noticed that she was not looking well and her breathing became more and more rapid. Tears even trickled down from the corner of her eyes.

He had seen such a suffering face.

It was the first time she met him, and she ran to him anxiously. Her expression was exactly the same as it was at the moment when she was taken away.

Sparkling tears rolled down from the corner of her eyes and fell on the couch as if it had also hit his heart.

When his frown grew deeper and deeper, the woman sleeping on the couch screamed suddenly and opened her eyes.

As for him, he was still bending over. The two of them looked into each other's eyes unexpectedly.

He was speechless

He pursed his thin lips. When he was about to stand up, the woman suddenly reached out and hugged his neck tightly.

"I'm glad you're fine. I knew you wouldn't leave me alone..."

In the nightmare, Minerva wanted to save Maddox, but she couldn't get close to him. She could only watch him fall constantly, and she couldn't do anything about it even though she was anxious. Finally, when she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was Maddox standing in front of her alive. Hence, she hugged him reflexively.

There was a sense of the preciousness of regaining what had been lost.
