Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Hearing this, Monica looked shy and cforward holding the plate of fruit. She offered, "Sebastian, would you like to eat some?" As she got closer, the smell of perfwafted over and lingered on his body. It was a sweet and creamy scent that reminded Maddox of another woman.

His assistant...

That day, when he held her in his arms and took off her knitted sweater after they returned home, he could also smell the faint scent that belonged to her. It was not perfume, but the fragrance of skind of shower gel.

It was light but uncommon, fragrant but not strong.

"Sebastian?" Monica called out to him again. Maddox looked aside and noticed that her face was very close to him. She had put on very heavy makeup, and her lipstick was bloody red, making him feel very uncomfortable. With that, Maddox furrowed his brows and retracted his gaze before he stood up.

"You don't have to do this foranymore," He said flatly.

Hearing that, the smile on Monica's lips froze, "Why? You need to to eat something nutritious. I'm doing this for your own good." When Geoffrey heard how Maddox rejected her, his heart filled with glee. He looked at Maddox with satisfaction and insulted her, "You are the eldest daughter of the Dormer family. It's really not appropriate for you to try and please a man. Miss Dormer, why don't you just stop? Just have the servants do these in the future." Clearly, Monica was not happy. Looking at Maddox's face, she frowned, "I know these things are usually done by the servants, but... I want to do it for you. I don't feel like it's a pain forat all." This was met by Geoffrey's wild cackle, "But I feel sorry for the servants. If you do this at the Collins family every day, what will the servants of the Collins family do in the future? Sigh, you clearly know that this is a servant's work, but you still want to do it. Aren't you clearly trying to steal their jobs?" With that, Monica was left speechless.

Then, she bit her lower lip and looked at Geoffrey hatefully, but he just shrugged indifferently.

He never liked people like Monica, who loved to be a stuck-up to those with authority. He never liked her in the first place, so he would gladly insult her over and over again. Moreover, he was standing firmly on Minerva's side! "I have serrands to run. Geoffrey, please entertain Monica while grandpa's away," Maddox said shortly before he went out.

Monica's expression immediately turned anxious. She tried to chase after him.

"Sebastian!" When Geoffrey saw this, he quickly extended his hand to stop Monica. He scoffed, "Don't chase after him. Didn't you hear from Sebastian that he's busy? There's no point in following him." Truth be told, Geoffrey felt great when he saw Monica feeling unhappy.

Soon, Monica cback to her senses. She glared hatefully at Geoffrey in front of her.

"Geoffrey, what did I ever do to you? Why are you always trying to make things difficult for me?" Her voice was no longer soft and her expression was no longer tender. She was staring at him viciously. Seeing her like this, Geoffrey understood something instantly.

Now that Maddox was not around, she could no longer keep up the farce.

However, he did not intend to fight with her as he was a kind, upright and handsyoung man.

Thinking of this, Geoffrey smiled and said, "Did I? You're so beautiful. Why would I ever make things difficult for you?" The compliment about her beauty confused Monica for a moment and her gaze softened a little. She tried reasoning with him, "Since you're not, then what did you mean just now? Why did you say that I was trying to steal away the servants' jobs?" "Am I not right? You are the eldest daughter of the Dormer family. Of course, you should be respected and loved by others. It's not worthwhile to do this for a man. And what I said is true. You have been doing their work, causing them to have nothing to do. Well, it's bad karma to steal someone's hard-earned money. You will be cursed." These words sounded very jarring to the ears, and Monica stared at Geoffrey suspiciously.

"I don't want to make them lose their jobs, I just want to care for Seb. Geoffrey... You're good friends with him. Why don't... you help me?" After saying that, Monica once again revealed a gentle smile as she approached Geoffrey, trying to hold his hand and appeal to him.

Geoffrey's expression changed drastically as he took a few steps back. It was as if Monica was a plague he had to avoid.

"Don't. I can't help you with anything. After all, I don't have the ability to change Sebastian's mind." What Geoffrey meant was that even with his help, Sebastian wouldn't love Monica anyhow.

This time, Monica understood what he meant. With a sour expression, she stood there looking at Geoffrey, but she didn't give up. She looked at him pitifully and pouted, "Are you sure you don't want to help me? I'm serious about Seb, because we're going to be engaged in the future." Tsk.

Looking at her delicate and charming appearance, he really would believe her if Geoffrey hadn't heard how she belittled him in front of the servants.

Her acting skills deserved to be commended indeed.

Geoffrey wanted to leave, but... he had no choice but to stay as Maddox had told him to entertain Monica. Meanwhile, Maddox left the Collins family hwith no idea where he was going. He only knew that what Geoffrey said to him had been echoing in his mind all this while.

By the the cto his senses, his car had already arrived at Minerva's home.

Looking at the building in front of him, Maddox couldn't help but rub his temples. His thin lips were pursed tightly into a straight line How did he get here?

As he thought about the question, Maddox wanted to open the car door and get out subconsciously. He could not control himself and walked to the door of the apartment. It was daytime. He stood at the gate for a while, but he could not enter.

The gate was locked, and outsiders could not get in without a key.

Thus, Maddox could not help but secretly laugh at himself. What was he doing? He actually drove the car here just for her against his wishes.

Ah, forget it. He'd better leave instead.

Just as Maddox was planning to leave in his car, he turned around and saw Minerva carrying a shopping bag. She looked at him in disbelief.

Why was he here? Minerva stared at Maddox who was standing at the gate of her apartment. She could not believe her eyes.

She felt that his silhouette looked familiar from behind, but she told herself that it was impossible. Why would Maddox cto her house and stand at her door?

Now that he had turned around and she confirmed that it was him, m Minerva was even more surprised. "You" Minerva's lips parted slightly, but she couldn't say a word. As for Maddox, he walked to her with a calm face and said flatly, "You cback just in time. Takeupstairs." X
