When Monica went in to see Maddox, he was standing in front of the French window, lost in thought. This floor was very high up, so he could almost see the whole city where many people couldn't do so. However, he was still very confused.
All of this was extremely unfamiliar to him. On the contrary, Minerva gave him a different feeling.
If Jarold insisted that he be engaged to Monica, then Geoffrey's suggestion..seemed like it was not a bad idea, even though he felt that there was no need to do so.
No one could stop the person he, Maddox Yardley, wanted.
Nor could they force him to accept the things he refused.
While he was thinking, someone knocked on the door of the office. Maddox cback to his senses and coldly ordered, "Cin." But he didn't look back, thus he didn't know who cin at all.
When Monica stepped in, she saw Maddox standing in front of the French window with his back to her. She looked at the receptionist and motioned for her to go out first.
The receptionist blinked her eyes and went out.
It had been quiet since the door opened. Maddox frowned slightly. Was it not Linda, but Minerva? Just as he was about to turn around, a delicate body suddenly cover from behind, and the soft hand directly wrapped around his waist. At the stime, a foreign fragrance suddenly broke into his breath This strange aura...
Maddox's pupils suddenly contracted. The speed of his reaction was very fast, and he grabbed her hands and pushed her away without hesitation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Seb Ah!" As soon as Monica hugged him from the back, she felt that her hand was grabbed. She was delighted, but before she could make a sound, she was pushed away.
She shrieked and took a few steps back, but as she was wearing high heels, she still couldn't stabilize herself in the end. She lost her balance and fell onto the cold hard floor.
The moment her butt hit the ground, Monica felt the pain trigger her entire body. It was so painful that she wanted to grimace in pain.
However, when she thought of how Maddox was here and that gritting her teeth would make her look extremely ugly, she could only control her expression and look up pitifully while calling out to Maddox. "Seb, it's me..I'm Monica.." Maddox had already turned around and looked at her with an icy expression. His eyes were so dark that there was no light in them, which would intimate others greatly.
Seeing this, Monica felt a little afraid and her tears welled out. "Seb...it hurts a lot." It was men's nature to take pity on women.
Generally speaking, even the most indifferent man would show his gentlemanly demeanor when he saw a woman fall in front of him. Even if he didn't like her, he would at least lift her up.
However, Maddox did not cforward to help her up. Instead, he looked at her icily and asked, "Who let you in?" Monica felt that her heart had been shattered into pieces in an instant.
How could it be like this? She had already fallen down, and it was he who pushed her away. If he had not pushed her away, she would not have fallen down at all. Not only had he not helped her up, but he had also looked at her with such cold eyes.
Monica felt a knife stab through her heart. She bit her lower lip and looked at Maddox with reddened eyes. "I wanted to see you, so I asked your company's employees to bringhere. Seb.. I'm in so much pain from falling. Can you help me?" After that, she also extended her hand to Maddox.
At this moment, Minerva had already arrived at the entrance of the office. She wanted to take a look, but didn't intend to go in. She just wanted to hear if there was any commotion.
However, she didn't expect that the door wasn't closed. As soon as she approached, she heard Monica's soft and choked voice.
"Seb, it hurts so much. Can you givea hand?" Upon hearing this, Minerva stopped walking. Then, she crossed her arms in front of her chest and began to recall back.
Based on her memory, it seemed that she had never spoken to Maddox in this way.
She didn't expect that Monica would actually...
Was she hoping that Maddox would be gentle to her? Minerva pursed her lips and leaned against the door, listening.
After Monica finished speaking, she stared at him with a pair of tearful eyes. Maddox's pitch black eyes narrowed slightly as he walked towards her.
Seeing this, Monica was overjoyed.
"Sure enough, when it comes to women... a man's natural instinct will make him take pity on women", thought Monica.
Her eyelids drooped as teardrops were pressed against her eyelashes, making her look even more pitiful and delicate.
Just as Maddox walked toward her, Monica slowly raised her head. However, she saw him walk past her with a frosty demeanour, and headed straight for his desk. Monica was shocked. She opened her eyes wide and turned to look at Maddox.
He was unbuttoning his suit, and his movements were a little rough as he took off his suit. At first, Monica didn't understand what he was doing.
But then, he took out a clean handkerchief from his drawer and carefully wiped his hand repeatedly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMonica was speechless.
She quickly reacted, and the color drained from her face.
He was giving her the cold-shoulder, so he took off his suit which she touched. Also, since he also grabbed her arm, he wiped his palm.
Monica heard that he had mysophobia, but she did not expect..
that his mysophobia would reach such an extent, and that he would even treat her the sway. Monica felt a burst of pain in her heart. She bit her lower lip tightly and smelled a metallic smell.
'TH give you ten seconds to leave this place." After wiping one last finger, Maddox casually threw the handkerchief into the trash can next to him, as if he didn't see Monica sitting there at all.
Would Monica dare not to go out?
She hadn't been invited and con her own accord, and even made up her mind to seduce Maddox. If she couldn't succeed the first time) thèn she would try a second time. However, Maddox was so frosty toward her, and his looks could kill. If she didn't leave here in ten seconds, he would have gotten two security guards to throw her out. By that time, the entire company would know about her incident. The next tshe cto look for Maddox, wouldn't it mean that she wouldn't even have the chance to cup? Thinking of this, Monica quickly decided to get up from the ground. Then she softly said, "Seb, please don't be angry. I'll leave right away." With these words, she hobbled out of the room.
After she left, there was still Monica's scent in the office. Maddox frowned in discomfort. He tugged his tie on NOV his chest and called Linda. "From now on, don't let any Tom, Dick and Harry into my office, no matter what." "Huh?" Before Linda could react, he had already hung up the phone.
Listening to the phone's busy tone, Linda's face was still showing a look of confusion.
"What... What's going on? Hasn't the Dormer family and Collins Family got along well with each other for generations?" How did Monica Dormer end up being any Tom, Dick and Harry...?
