Minerva had no objection.

She also felt that she couldn't go to work in this state. After all, the doctor had prescribed bed rest. If it was just ordinary tiredness, she naturally wouldn't take it to heart.

However, since she had shown signs of miscarriage, she had to be extra careful.

Thinking of that, Minerva decided to take advantage and said, "Well... I want to rest for a few more days. Is that okay?"

Upon hearing this, Maddox could not help but raise his eyebrows, "Are you really that tired?"

Minerva was very embarrassed. Before she could even open her mouth, he said, "Looks like we really have to take it slow next time."

Minerva was so angry by his words that she wanted to cried out. But, the noodles in the pot almost overflowed and it frightened her. She quickly turned off the gas and said to Maddox, "Get out of here. I'll clear up this place."

After they ate the noodles, Maddox put down the fork and said, "I will invite Auntie over in the afternoon."

"There's no need," Minerva wanted to reject.

"I'm going to deal with last night's matters. You are going stay home alone, huh?"

Minerva said, "Okay, then be careful. If possible, bring Geoffrey with you."

Although Geoffrey may have looked like a good-for- nothing, he was very reliable in critical moments.

Maddox couldn't help but glance at Minerva when she mentioned Geoffrey.

"Did you ask him to come last night?"

"Mm..." Minerva answered slightly guiltily and avoided his gaze. She continued to explain in a low voice, "You didn't return last night. I was worried about you, but I can't go out. I could only ask Geoffrey to check on you."
