After what happened last night...

The first thing Maddox did after regaining his consciousness was to stretch out his hand to hug her. However, he found that there was no one beside him and immediately opened his deep eyes. Sure enough, Minerva was nowhere to be seen.

Maddox quickly lifted the blanket and sat up. Then, he noticed the bedsheet and blanket were horribly wrinkled. He called out Minerva's name but didn't get any response. Then he got dressed and searched every room.

The house was quiet, and Minerva was nowhere to be seen.

Maddox sat by the bed, and the sound of his breathing filled the room. If it weren't for the proof on the sheets, Maddox would have doubted whether what had happened the night before was true.

After a moment of silence, Maddox took out his phone and called Minerva.

Once, twice, thrice....

All of them ended with a polite but cold female voice.

"Sorry, the person you have called is unavailable, please try again later."

Maddox's brows furrowed. He continued to dial the number. However, no one answered the call. He frowned and clasped the phone harder.

Could it be that she regretted what they had done last night?

So she left early in the morning and didn't even answer his calls?

As soon as the idea appeared in his mind, Maddox's eyelids twitched. He immediately got up and walked out. Maddox stopped in his tracks when he passed by the bathroom.

He turned his eyes and saw the clothes from last night. They had been packed up and thrown into the washing machine. However, the washing machine was not on, probably because she was afraid of waking him up.

Maddox's eyes darkened when he saw that.

If she had regretted it, she probably wouldn't have done these things. Instead, she would have packed up and left.

Maddox stood and watched quietly for a while. When he returned to his room, he discovered that Minerva's suitcase and other items were there. Only her hand phone and her bag were missing. She had probably just gone out.
