"Hm?" Minerva thought that she had misheard, or she was experiencing hallucination. Otherwise, how could she have heard Maddox saying that Geoffrey's proposal was not bad? She looked at the person in front of her in shock. His handsdeep brows were arched attractively like waves. Besides that, perhaps it was because he had not drank water for a long time, hence his lips looked a little chapped. He bent over towards her.
"That's a rather good idea. We can consider it seriously. What do you think?" Minerva stayed rooted to the ground.
He was very close to her, and the hot breath out of his mouth was constantly skimming through her, giving her a very unreal feeling.
Minerva heard herself asking him in a very light tone.
"Can we, really?" After asking, she blinked nervously and asked, "Are you willing to.. go back to Hidalgo with me?" There was a hint of tremor in her voice, perhaps due to excitement. If Maddox was really willing to accompany her back to Hidalgo, things would be much simpler.
When she was back at Hidalgo, there were many people there to accompany her and shield her. Unlike now, she was alone.
Maddox's hand reached through her underarms to lift her up and carry her onto his lap. Minerva wasn't tall nor petite, and was relatively thin. Hence, in Maddox's eyes, she was especially petite. He could just carry her with his hands whenever he desired.
Just like now, she had been dragged onto his thighs by him, and she could only hold on to his shoulders. Maddox felt that he might go crazy.
It was obvious that she was just a woman who had known him for a short time. After Geoffrey proposed that suggestion, his first reaction towards it was absolutely absurd. How could he, Maddox Yardley, elope? But after on, he suddenly felt that it was a good idea to return to Hidalgo with her.
Minerva didn't know what Maddox was thinking now. After holding her in his arms, Maddox lowered his head and leaned against her shoulder, his lips unconsciously touching her neck.

"What on earth did you do to me?" Why, why on earth was he getting more and more obsessed with her? He couldn't figure it out, nor did he want to know the reason behind it.
** After returning to the company, Minerva asked Maddox to put her down somewhere far away from the company. This was not the first tsomething like this had happened, so Maddox quickly pulled over. Minerva got off the car and closed the door, then said to him, "I'll be at the company soon." "Sure." Maddox pursed his lips, looking deep in thought. "No matter how secretive you are now, others will know about us in the future." It was easy for him to mention it like it was not a big deal, but she knew what he meant when she analyzed the meaning behind carefully.
Minerva's cheeks turned red as she urged him, "Hurry up and leave." Maddox then drove away.
After he left, the smile on Minerva's face gradually disappeared.
She was a little disappointed. Just now at the restaurant, she asked him the last question, but he didn't answer her.
Minerva shook her head.
Perhaps she was thinking too much. After all, he just said that Geoffrey's suggestion was good, and they could consider it, but he didn't say that it was certain.
It's all her fault. How could she ask this question so naively? Minerva stretched out her hand and rubbed her cheeks. Then, she walked back slowly.
When she was about to reach the company, she saw a familiar figure walking into the company.
The woman's back looked foreign yet very familiar. It seemed that she had seen her somewhere before.. "Miss Dormer." The security guards knew Monica, so when they saw her enter the company, they would greet her automatically. Monica's gaze swept over the security guards. A disdainful expression soon took over her face. These men did not possess any skill. Every single tthey saw her, they would always use lustful gazes, not even bothering to check whether they were worthy of her or not.
"I cto see Seb." She called Maddox's nvery intimately and her voice was very soft. The security guards looked at each other and then whispered, "Mr. Sebastian's car just cback. You should be able to see him when you go up." Monica's lips curled into a charming smile. "Is that so? Then I'll do so now. Who will leadthe way?" A security guard then led her in, while Minerva, who was standing behind them not far away, caught a glimpse of what had just happened.
Monica Dormer..
Ever since she started in this company, it was the first tshe saw Monica in person at the company. Because the engagement had not been successful, had she gone straight to the company to find Maddox? It was unclear if it was because she saw Monica, or that the weather was gloomy, but she suddenly felt very chilly.
After standing where she was for a while, Minerva walked in.
After that, she saw the security guard bring Monica to the front desk and say something to the receptionist. She immediately revealed a surprised expression, then she respectfully nodded and bowed to Monica. After that, she walked out from the counter and led the way for Monica.
Everyone knew about the relationship between the Dormer family and the Collins family. Thus, even if Monica didn't make an appointment, they wouldn't reject her and would just bring her up.
The receptionist thought since Zaydon cto look for Maddox previously, nothing had happened, then Monica going up to look for him would be fine.
Therefore, she took Monica to ride the elevator which was exclusively for Maddox.
Minerva, who had witnessed all of this, stood at the entrance of the elevator, hesitating whether she should go up.
If she were to go up now, she would definitely run into Monica. They had met before.
As long as she met her this time, she would definitely recognise her.

Before Maddox lost his memory, Monica already had the thought of stealing his heart, hot to mention now that he had lost his memory.
If she saw Monica, Monica would about her definitely tell Master Collins situation. This group of people... grouillins intentionally erased everything. Birds of a feather flock together. "If I don't see her..." "To see...or not to see." Finally, Minerva gritted her teeth and pressed the elevator button.
Whatever, she would face her head on. Escaping constantly wouldn't solve anything.
The most concerning part was that she wouldn't be able to escape for long. Since Monica cby herself, then she would go see her.
Looking at the rising number of the elevator, Minerva's heart beccalmer.
"Miss Dormer, please be careful. Followin this direction." The receptionist led Monica towards Maddox's office.
During the period, they met Linda who cout of the secretary office.
"Linda, this is Monica Dormer, the young lady of the Dormer Group. She's here to see Mr.
Sebastian." The Dormer family? Linda observed Monica from head to toe. She looked back at her arrogantly, as if she didn't care about her at all.
Why were there so many people from the Dormer family coming to see Mr. Sebastian recently?
Although she might have doubts, after all, there were dealings among the two influential families. Linda naturally did not stop her. She nodded and said, "Understood. You can take Miss Dormer there." X
