"All right, I'll help you check on her. She's not willing to see you but I think she's still willing to see me." Maddox was not sure either, but he nodded in agreement.
"I'll have to trouble you, Auntie Stark." "Tsk, you've becmore polite. Since you calledAuntie, I'm going to help you coax Minerva even if you did do something wrong." Abigail said. Then, she added, "But if you did flirt with somebody else, I will convince her to break your legs with me." After that, Abigail went to see Minerva. When Minerva heard someone knock on the door, she was leaning on the sofa, and she didn't want to move.
"Minerva, it's Auntie Stark." Minerva cback to her senses after she heard Abigail's voice outside the door. "Auntie Stark? Why is she here?" She wondered.
Soon, Minerva realized that Abigail was probably sent here by Maddox. "Hmph! This d*uche actually went to get help." Minerva felt annoyed.
Auntie Stark was her elder, so she couldn't act as if she wasn't in the room.
"Auntie Stark, what is it?" "I heard that you have been unwell for the past two days. I got a little worried, so I wanted to see if you're doing alright. Do you needto bring you to the hospital for a check-up? Or if you don't want to go to the hospital, why don't you letin and I'll take a look for you? I used to be a doctor, and I know a little bit about your situation, after all." Then, Abigail tried to twist the doorknob open. A click was heard, but the door didn't open because Minerva had locked it from the inside.

"Auntie Stark, are you here alone?" Abigail knew what Minerva was worried about, but she didn't think that she would ask her so straightforwardly. Abigail couldn't help but laugh on the inside. Luckily, she chased Maddox away beforehand, or Minerva might not want to open the door for her.
Thinking of this, Abigail said, "Yes, it's onlyout here. You can open the door with ease. You know you can tellanything. If you feel wronged, I will make it right for you, and I won't show that brat any mercy." Creak...
The door cracked open. Abigail looked in, but she did not see Minerva's figure. "Minerva?" "Auntie Stark, I'm here..." Minerva opened the door wider, and Abigail managed to slip in. Then, Minerva quickly locked the door as if she was afraid that someone would follow Abigail from behind. "Don't worry. If you don't want to see him, he wouldn't barge in without your permission. Otherwise, he wouldn't have cto me." He was afraid that Minerva wouldn't be able to handle him barging in, so he went to Abigail for help. Abigail scrutinized Minerva as she spoke. It had been a long tsince they saw each other. Since the day Maddox regained his memory, Abigail left the couple alone so they could enjoy their ttogether. She went back to her own hand brought Jarold along to live with her. She would occasionally follow Jarold abroad. It had been two months since Abigail last met Minerva.
Two months ago, she noticed Minerva's belly was quite obvious, but she didn't think that two months later... Abigail couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Minerva, how did you gain..." So much weight? She didn't dare to finish her sentence because she was afraid that it would hurt Minerva's self-esteem, but her laugh was too obvious. With the way she was staring at Minerva earlier, it was easy to tell what she was thinking in her head.
Sure enough, after her laugh, Minerva's pale cheeks immediately flushed. She turned around awkwardly.
"Auntie Stark, don't make fun of me." Abigail stopped laughing and then stared at her. "It's only been two months since we last met. How did this happen?" Minerva's expression was gloomy." don't know either. Perhaps it's Vbecause all I do is sleep and eat all day, but it wasn't like this when I was pregnant with Beanie." When she said this, Abigail noticed that there was a trace of distress in Minerva's expression. Her eyes were full of worries because of this matter.
"So, you've been hiding from Maddox because of this?" Although she was embarrassed, Minerva still nodded admittedly.
"Auntie Stark, since we're both women, I'll be honest with you. If I could, I really want to avoid him and deliver this baby alone." When she was pregnant with Beanie, she had also gotten out of shape, and it took her a long tto get back in.
She was alone back then, and Maddox was not by her side. She wasn't bothered by what other people thought of her, so it didn't matter what she looked like.
However, now, he was by her side every day, and he would watch her look worse day by day. Hence, she felt distressed just thinking about it.
"Silly girl, what are you thinking? Most women go through this, and if a man were to dislike you because you've gained weight for having a baby, would you still want to be with him? Giving birth is already a tough job, and you want to hide and do it alone? If that is really what you're thinking about, you can't Blme for scolding you." "But..." Minerva lowered her head dejectedly as she looked at her thick limbs. She felt miserable.
"Con, don't worry. You'll be fine after giving birth. You are still you." After that, Abigail gave Minerva a lot of reassurance and insisted that she couldn't hide herself to have this baby alone; she had to face Maddox.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter persuading her all day, Minerva finally nodded.
When Abigail cout, Maddox was standing outside the door. He quickly went up to her when he saw her cout.
"How did it go? Did Minerva tell you why she was ignoring me?" Abigail had been talking to Minerva all day, and her lips were extremely dry. Therefore, she instructed Maddox, "Go and pour your aunt a glass of water." Maddox didn't react.
Maddox remained where he was.
Abigail raised her eyebrows and said, "You don't want to? You don't want to know what Minerva's thoughts are? of do you actually not wish to see her at all?" It was an obvious threat. Maddox frowned; he still got Abigail a glass of water.
After drinking a cup of water, her throat was much better. Abigail R the cup aside and found that Maddox was looking at her coldly, as if he were going to kill her. "Can you tellnow?" "What? You're looking atlike I'm your nemesis. What are you going to do if I don't tell you?" Maddox's expression instantly turned darker. After thinking for two seconds, he slowly spoke.
"It shouldn't be difficult to make you spit out the water you just drank." What!!! Abigail looked at Maddox with disappointment.
"Do you even seeas your auntie? You were nice when you were askingfor my help earlier. Forget it. I've already talked to hex she won't lock you outside tonight." Although he got the answer he wanted, Maddox still didn't know why Minerva was ignoring him for the past few days. He didn't leave but continued with a question. "What's the reason?" "The reason? I promised her not to tell you. If you want to know, go ask her yourself." Like RICH WOMEN? X These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming these rich. women will persue you.
