In the end, Maddox couldn't stand it anymore. He stepped forward and took Jelly Bean from her arms.
At first, Minerva was reluctant. But since Maddox usually held Jelly Bean in his arms, when he stretched out his hands, she giggled and stretched out her little hands to Maddox.
Minerva, who wanted to keep Jelly Bean to her own, was speechless.
Was this still her child? She didn't want her mommy anymore when she saw her daddy! Didn't they say a child relied on their mother the most? Although they were bickering, since Jelly Bean wanted her father to hug her, Minerva naturally did not refuse; she let Maddox do as he pleased.
"You carry her then. I'm going to take a rest." After saying this, Minerva turned around and was about to leave. But Maddox clasped her wrist.
"You haven't toldwhat happened." Maddox held Jelly Bean in one hand with ease.
In the beginning, he did not know what kind of posture to use to hold Jelly Bean, and she would feel uncomfortable even though he was careful. It took a long tfor him to be able to hold her casually without her making a fuss.
Now, he could be said to be a super daddy.
As long as Maddox was around, Minerva didn't have to do anything.
After being held back by him, Minerva pursed her red lips and didn't know what to say. After all, it didn't seem to be her style to rake up the past.

But she felt pent up if she didn't say it out, so how should she put it? In the end, she only said nothing sulkily. Hearing that, Maddox laughed helplessly with a deep voice.
"You call this nothing? You gaveyour attitude the moment I cback. Not only did you not letkiss you, but you also wouldn't even letfollow you. I just cback from a meeting; I don't know what happened at home. Did something upsetting happen?" Minerva frowned and looked at him seriously.
"So you're saying you're already exhausted after the meeting, yet you cback to seebeing unreasonable, aren't you?" Maddox was at a loss for words.
He felt that Minerva was rather unreasonable that day; she kept picking a bone with him. He was shocked for a while before he said, "You know that's not what I meant." Minerva asked, "Then what do you mean?" In actuality, if Maddox didn't follow her, Minerva would've naturally readjusted her mood by the evening, yet he had to irritate her when she happened to be morose. Not only that, he even said such words, causing Minerva to lash out. The atmosphere between them bectense all of a sudden.
Maddox obviously knew the atmosphere was tense.
He stared at Minerva, and Jelly Bean seemed to have felt something. She stopped smiling and looked at her parents with her big bright eyes, turning around. Minerva realized it too. She gathered her thoughts and lowered her eyes.
"Sorry, I'm in a bad mood today." After that, she was ready to turn around and leave.
How could Maddox let her go just like that? The two of them had not reached an agreement, and if he let her leave in such a tense situation, she might overthink.
Therefore, he pulled Minerva into his arms with all his strength.
As she hadn't expected it, her forehead bumped against his chest. When she looked up, she happened to meet Jelly Bean's innocent and curious eyes. "Are you crazy?" When she cto her senses, Minerva scolded him. "You pulledjust like that. What if I hit Jelly Bean because you didn't control your strength well?" "I won't." "I'll control my strength well. I won't let you two get hurt at all." Minerva looked up at him in shock.
Maddox pursed his lips, and a serious expression appeared on his face. He looked at her seriously and said, "Tell me, what happened?" After that, Maddox bent over slightly and put his forehead gently on hers. Their noses touched, and they could feel each other's breath.
"Hmm?" Under such gentle treatment, no matter how angry Minerva was, it was relinquished.
She bit her lower lip and whispered, "If I say it... You might laugh at me." Even though they had been through so much, and Minerva was already the mother of two, she still couldn't help becoming a sensitive and emotional young girl in front of Maddox.
She desired to be cared for and to be treasured so that she would not feel any pain and anxiety.
Of course, this person was Maddox.
"What else is there between us that cannot be said?" Maddox bumped her forehead gently, and his tone suddenly beca little strict. "Tellnow." Minerva pursed her lips and said unhappily, "You're scolding me?" "Yes." Maddox's face darkened, and his eyes were dark. "If you still keep quiet, I will not only be fierce to you but also bully you." "What?" "Like this..." Maddox suddenly moved forward and bit her lip. Minerva didn't react for a moment; she stood there in a daze and looked into Maddox's eyes. She saw an obvious faint smile and affection in his eyes.
He stepped back a little and narrowed his eyes as he said. "I'll bully you to the end if you still won't say it." Minerva was dumbfounded.
After a few seconds of shock, she touched her lips and teased him, "Where did you fearn to act like a En: rascal? Jelly Bean... is still here." How could he kiss her in front of their child! B*stard! "So what? She's still little anyway. She doesn't know anything." Then, Maddox's hand wrapped around Minerva's waist. He pulled her toward him and pressed her against him.
"Are you going to tell me?" Minerva shook her head. "Forget it... I..." Before she could finish her sentence, Maddox leaned in and bit her lips again.

It was not as simple this time.
Maddox had obviously only wanted to teach her a lesson earlier while this... This was the real show.
He bit her lips lightly, but soon he was prying her mouth open.
Just a while ago, Minerva was still thinking about the past. But now, she was ruffled up by his tease Thinking ve of something, she tried to push him away, but Maddox was too strong.
She couldn't break free even if he only held her with one hand. Tticked away.
After stime, Maddox finally let go of her.
"Are you going to say it now?" he asked.
Would Minerva dare not say it? If she didn't, Maddox would probably kiss her in front of Jelly Bean again.
She glared at him and then told him what she thought forcibly.
Maddox was first astonished when he found out why she was angry. Then, a joyful smile appeared in his eyes.
