To put his life at stake?

Yeah, why didn't he think about it before?

If he was almost dying, Ollie wouldn't possibly leave him, right?

However...

He sent another text message to Maddox.

"Isn't this too despicable?"

"Despicable? Between husband and wife, this is a delight."

Minerva walked out just as Maddox finished typing the sentence. He quickly put away his cell phone.

Minerva caught sight of his action and narrowed her eyes. She asked, "Why are you being sneaky?"

There was no way Maddox would show her the text messages he had sent Sam. He spread out his palm in front of her and said, "Nothing. Are you hungry? Do you want them to prepare lunch?"

Looking at his action and expression, he was definitely hiding something. Moreover, he tried to change the subject.

Minerva looked closely at him and said while squinting her eyes, "I'm not hungry. Take out your phone and show me."

"Ahem..."

"Give it to me," Minerva extended her hand towards him.

"I really didn't do anything. It's just a phone. What's there to look at?"

"Maddox, you're keeping secrets from me, aren't you? Is there something in your phone that I can't see? Let me ask you in another way, do you have someone else besides me?"

Maddox frowned when he heard her last question. He could not bear to be accused of such a wrongdoing, so he shook his head and denied it immediately.

"How is that possible? I will never look at another woman other than you, let alone be interested in them."
