As Maddox was lost in his thoughts, he continued to stare at her with the same posture.

Minerva found a hint of unhappiness in his dark eyes, and she instantly lost her confidence. Was she joking too much? Was that why he was angry?

When she was thinking of this, she could only reach out to tug his sleeve. She asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

He came back to his senses and saw that her expression and eyes were looking weakly at him. The thoughts that had filled his mind just now disappeared without a trace. Forget it. What was the point in thinking about that?

As long as she was by his side, it was fine. The way she looked at him and her attitude towards him was not fake. Who she loved before and who she liked, what did it matter? However, he was so jealous of that man that he was about to go crazy.

The baby in her stomach...

Maddox felt something touching his cheek and saw Minerva looking at him worriedly. "What's wrong with you? You've been lost in thought. Did I say the wrong thing just now?"

He regained his senses and replied to her, "No, don't think too much."

Had she thought too much? She bit her lower lip. "But I always feel like you've been in a bad mood lately. Did I do something wrong?"

Maybe she was too proud, so she was so complacent in front of him just now. If she had known that he didn't like it, she shouldn't have been like this.

While she was thinking, he suddenly raised his hand and gently tapped her on the tip of her nose.

She came back to her senses and looked into his deep and serene eyes. Then, she saw his thin lips and said softly, "What are you thinking about? I'm in a bad mood because you're in the hospital. How do you think I'm in a good mood?"

It seemed to be very reasonable this way.

She was in the hospital, and she had almost fallen off the stairs after being kidnapped. How could he be in a good mood?

Had she been overthinking?
