What?

Minerva thought that she had misheard him. If not, then she was surely hallucinating. Why would Maddox appear at her apartment? And why would he ask her to bring him upstairs? "Why are you standing there like a fool? Let's go."

Just as Minerva was still in a daze, Maddox spoke again. His voice sounded harsh and steely. As she looked into his eyes, they were dark and emotionless.

Well, that could only go to say that he was real and not her hallucination.

If it was part of her illusion, Maddox wouldn't look like this. She nodded and walked forward, opening the door silently.

It was extremely unexpected to see him here.

Frankly, it was because she didn't see him when they went to the restaurant. Geoffrey said that Maddox didn't read his text, but he was not the kind of person who was good at telling lies, and she was no longer a little girl. How could she not see that Geoffrey was hiding something?

Therefore, not only was Minerva surprised to see him here, she was also excited.

She opened the door and walked in, and Maddox followed behind her.

Minerva took Maddox upstairs. While doing so, they happened to run into the landlord, Belinda, who had come downstairs. Belinda noticed the tall man behind Minerva and checked him out from head to toe. She then asked with a smile, "Is he your boyfriend?"

Minerva's face turned red and she shook her head awkwardly.

Belinda thought she was shy, so she just brushed past them with a smile.

After that, Minerva opened the door and entered the hallway.

She bent down and took out a pair of women's slippers and placed them in front of him. Maddox frowned upon seeing this.

"You want me to wear this?" He was unhappy.

Minerva replied, "I'm sorry. I... only have this pair of indoor slippers."

With no choice, Maddox took a look at the shoe cabinet. Indeed, there was only a pair of women's indoor slippers in it, while the rest were her own shoes.
