As the words were about to come out of her mouth, Maddox suddenly stood up. "You just woke up. I'll pour you a glass of water."

Then, he got up and went to get some water.

Looking at his back, Minerva was stunned. She had almost told him, but he suddenly stood up and said that he was going to pour her some water.

Was it her illusion? She felt that he seemed to be avoiding it deliberately.

Up to this point, she lowered her eyes and pursed her pale lips tightly.

If he was avoiding it deliberately, did that mean that he already knew about it?

That was right. This was a hospital. How could she hide it?

A single word from the doctor, and the thing that she had been hiding for so long would be exposed.

Soon, Maddox poured a glass of water and handed it to her.

Minerva took the cup and silently drank the warm water, but her mind was in a mess. She didn't know what to say.

Just then, Abigail knocked on the ward's door. She pushed the door and entered the ward.

She saw this scene in the ward, she put the bag on the table and whispered, "Minerva, are you awake?"

"Auntie."

Maddox also turned around and greeted her. Then, he got up and gave the seat to her. Abigail sat down at the edge of the bed and looked back at him. "I'll go make a phone call."

He probably knew that they had something to talk about, so he said this directly. He took out his cell phone, turned around, and went out of the ward. Abigail watched as Maddox left the ward. She got up and walked to the door. After making sure that he had left, she turned around and walked back to Minerva.
