What could she say?

She had no choice. After all, the sound insulation was not very good. Even if she tried not to pay attention to it, the sounds would still flow through her ear drums. But she couldn't possibly muffle her ears.

At first, she was a little annoyed. But then she thought, "Isn't this normal for an adult? Besides, it's not easy for a young couple to rent a place."

Thus she didn't report them to Belinda. Instead, she would go to bed early every night.

But now that Maddox had mentioned it and made fun of her, she felt so ashamed that she had to urge to dig a hole and bury herself.

Just when she was feeling helpless, Maddox bombarded her with another one shocking statement, saying lightly, "Who told you that I won't live here?"

Minerva's eyes widened in shock.

She was confused.

He raised his hand and pinched her chin, while his thumb moved to her lips. There was a touch of dissatisfaction in his dark eyes. "Did you touch up your lipstick again?" Minerva nodded her head guiltily.

If she didn't retouch it up, the wound on her lips would be too obvious. That's why she had to do it.

He didn't say anything, yet his gaze continuously fell on her lips, patiently wiping away the lipstick on her lips bit by bit with his finger.

Soon, Minerva saw that his thumb had turned red.

Her lips moved. When she wanted to say something, he suddenly leaned over and kissed her, pressing her against the door while kissing her softly. Minerva blinked her eyes nervously.

In fact, when he had started wiping her lips, she began to feel nervous, wondering if he would wipe away her lipstick to... and she had guessed it right!

After being kissed for a while, Minerva suddenly came back to her senses. She reached out her hand and pushed him away, gasping slightly and said, "The door, the door is not open yet."

Maddox closed the door indifferently, then continued by grabbing the back of her head as he pressed it against his forehead. "It's been a while and yet I still don't have my own pair of indoor slippers?" Minerva blinked her eyes. Her long eyelashes fluttered like two mini fans. She said in a daze, "You, you didn't say you wanted it."
