Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Minerva's heart skipped a beat when she realized that Maddox was acting strange.

"I heard Sam is here?"

Maddox paused. Then, he nodded in agreement.

"What's he doing here? Isn't it a weekend? Are you still busy with the company's affairs? Do you need me to help you?" Minerva asked, slightly concerned. "I used to work in the company, so I should be able to help with some small matters. If you..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Maddox reached out a finger and placed it on her lips, preventing her from continuing.

Minerva was caught off guard. She saw a sense of helplessness arise in his eyes.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Hmm?"

"I have finished dealing with the company's affairs. You don't have to worry about it. My company's affairs aside, I don't even want you to be so hands-on with your company's affairs."

"If I don't, what will happen to the company? Should I just sell it then?" Minerva joked while she snaked her hand to Maddox's back. It felt warm and damp as well as a little sticky.

Her brows furrowed slightly. Maddox seemed to have sensed her actions. He pinched her waist lightly, causing Minerva to shriek while he took the opportunity to pull her hand over and held it in his.

Both of her hands were wrapped in his one hand and Minerva could not shrug out of his grasp. She struggled and said, "Why are you holding my hands? Come on, let me go."

Maddox smiled and said, "I'm trying to warm you up."

Minerva said, "What are you talking about? Your hand is obviously colder than mine."

"Fine." Maddox immediately turned the tide and said, "Then you can warm me up."

How much more shameless could he get. His hand was obviously colder than hers, but he insisted on holding it. Maddox would definitely not have done so in the past, so Minerva knew that there was something fishy going on.

The more he did not want her to know, the more curious she was.

However, even though she was curious, she still knew him well. So she did not say anything after that; instead, she focused on warming him up.
