Maddox was speechless.

What was such a big deal that she couldn't tell him straight?

Seeing him frown in deep thought, Abigail decided to give him a hint by saying, "You should use your mind and think harder about the condition Minerva is in. If not, you should put yourself in her shoes, and you might just find out the reason."

"Anyway, I'm done with my job here. I'm going home to check on my dad. He just sent me a message earlier."

At night, the room was quiet.

Maddox and Minerva laid quietly in bed. She had her back facing him, and he watched her as he sighed deeply on the inside.

Although she was willing to let him in, when he came into the room, he realized that it was pitch black. All the lights were switched off, and the curtains were drawn.

He didn't take any action but asked in a low voice, "Why didn't you turn on the lights?"

She immediately said, "We should sleep with the lights off so it doesn't hurt our eyes."

She made up a lie. In fact, she didn't have a habit of sleeping with the lights off. After she had gotten pregnant, she would wake up throughout the night to use the bathroom, therefore the lights would be kept

on.

Abigail comforted her a lot and although she was convinced, she still wasn't able to let her guard down.

In the end, Maddox did not say anything and climbed into the bed silently in the darkness.

Minerva wasn't asleep. He didn't do anything wrong, and she was the one who was acting strangely. She bit her lower lip as she felt frustrated and upset with the situation.

A warm body leaned over from behind her. His breath spread onto her neck, and it was ticklish. She lifted her shoulder reflexively.

"What's wrong?" A low and hoarse voice came from behind her ear. She moved her shoulders again and moved her body a little forward. Then, he leaned close to her once again.
