Minerva sent them downstairs and watched them getting into the car. When they were about to go, the landlord came back as well and she followed Minerva with a smile. "I didn't expect you to have such a handsome and rich boyfriend," She said.

Minerva replied, "He is..."

"It's okay, you don't have to explain. I understand. It doesn't matter. You can bring your boyfriend here occasionally. I won't say anything."

After saying that, the landlord gave her a sly smile before she went upstairs.

Thus, Minerva felt a little helpless. She could not be bothered to explain, so she went upstairs.

The house was much livelier when Maddox and Geoffrey were here. However, she was the only one left when she opened the door now. Hence, Minerva felt a little lonely.

Alas.

It was true that there were some things that one could never get used to.

For example, if she was exposed to light after living her days in darkness, she would no longer be able to endure the dark days.

However, if she continued to stay in the darkness, then she would be unable to see the light. If so, she would never know what the light looked like, thus her heart would never yearn for it.

Minerva sighed silently in her heart as she started to tidy up the house. She found that Maddox had forgotten to take away the coat that she had washed for him.

'Didn't you come for this coat? Why didn't you take it when you leave?' Minerva couldn't help but complain as she picked up the coat.

Since he didn't take it with him, she would take care of it for him.

But this time, Minerva didn't dare to hang the suit in her closet. Instead, she hung the suit up at the balcony and prepared to take a shower. When she entered the bathroom, she realized that Maddox had left his clothes behind after he took a shower too.

Minerva was speechless.
