Some people would pretend to be sentimental when someone cared about them.

A person who cried easily didn't indicate her being a crybaby. It's just that she had the fortune of being cared and loved by those around her.

Even if Maddox didn't show up, Minerva could have still dealt with Master Collins alone. Even if he made it clear to her in the end, she would still have a way to deal with him. However, Maddox was here.

He stood in front of her and did not hesitate to argue with his grandfather for her sake.

The feeling of being protected moved Minerva so much that her tears were about to drop.

Minerva tried her best to suppress this feeling. She smiled and said, "You think too much. Why would I cry?"

Even though she said that the corner of her eyes were still wet. Fortunately, she was now immersed in Maddox's embrace. So Maddox could not see her tears.

Perhaps it was because her voice sounded shuddering, Maddox moved and tried to pull her away.

Minerva was afraid that he would find her cry, so she had to hold his thin waist and grasp his jacket tightly.

Maddox then stopped and just hugged her.

He seemed to understand her very well. He did not say anything after that. The two hugged each other in silence.

Time trickled by. Not knowing how much time had passed, Minerva returned to her normal self and left Maddox's embrace.

"That... your Grandpa just..."

"Yes."

Before she could finish her sentence, Maddox agreed and said, "I will handle it well. Don't worry"

"Then how are you going to deal with it?" Minerva was really worried because she had overheard the conversation between him and Jarold in the secretary's office.
