She had tried her best to calm herself down. On the surface, she looked like she knew nothing at all. But Geoffrey spoke so directly. Minerva was a woman after all; her face was flushed red to the ears.

However, the simple- minded Geoffrey did not notice Minerva's embarrassment at all. He wanted to remind her of something more, but she directly interrupted him, "Well, I really appreciate your help tonight, Geoffrey. Go and rest now."

After that, she pushed Geoffrey out of the door and slammed it shut.

Geoffrey almost got hit by the door. Minerva was already out of sight when he wanted to say something more. He touched his head with sorrow.

Why do all of them value their love more than their friends?

Geoffrey complained as he entered the elevator. He then recalled Minerva's awkward situation and realized what he had just said. "Thank heavens Sebastian wasn't there, otherwise I would've been killed." He thought to himself.

After Minerva closed the door, she leaned against it for a while before walking back to the bathroom.

Minerva's panic grew with every step she took.

She didn't know what was going on with herself just now. After figuring out Maddox's situation, she asked Geoffrey to leave.

Thinking back now, her ears grew red and warm.

Just as Minerva pushed open the door and wondered what to do with Maddox, she heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom.

Minerva stopped in her tracks. The next second, she dashed into the bathroom. Maddox, who had been motionless, was drenching himself in cold water.

It was winter and the temperature was near zero. Although the radiator was on, the way he drenched himself had turned his face ghostly pale and his lips purple. "What are you doing?" Minerva asked.

Minerva rushed over and turned off the water, then took a bath towel from the shelf and draped it over Maddox's body to dry it.

Probably because Maddox had drenched himself in cold water, Minerva felt that his eyelashes were almost frozen the moment he opened his eyes.

She felt a pain in her heart, and her eyes became red.
