Minerva was triggered, but she didn't dare to turn around and walk away. She could only endure the anger in her heart and stood there silently. "Well, that's all for today."

Sensing that the person on the other line was about to explode with anger, Maddox decided to end the seemingly endless meeting promptly. Although, there was still half an hour to go before the meeting ends.

"Well, we'll talk about the rest of it tomorrow."

After Maddox hung up the video chat, he took off the Bluetooth headset on his ear and looked at Minerva.

As soon as his gaze fell on Minerva, he saw her straightened her back immediately and looked at him with a pair of clear eyes like autumn water.

"Come over here."

His thin lips opened lightly.

"What for?" she asked.

Minerva's stomach was filled with anger at the moment. Moreover, this anger was also tinged with the bitterness of knowing that he might be engaged to someone else. This feeling was like a fuel to her anger. The more she felt it in her heart, the angrier she became.

At first, she thought she could take her time. After all, he had just recovered from his serious injury, thus, she should give him a little more time to let him familiarize himself with her presence before stimulating his memory.

But now? She came to know from Geoffrey that he might be engaged.

Geoffrey wanted her to succeed before he got engaged.

What is this? It makes it seem like she's going to go cross-eyed.

The more Minerva thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. This aggravation almost seeped through her eyes.

Her expression did not change and her eyes were fixed on him. Maddox could see the aggravation in her eyes.

However, he couldn't figure out what she was aggravated about.

Apart from the time they had dinner together last time, he had only met her twice.

Once at noon and once now.
