Baldrick stood outside the door alone. After he rang the doorbell, he stood there and waited patiently.
He was almost denied entry but after confirming his nand identity for a long time, and informed that he was there to look for Maddox the guards allowed him to enter.
Of course, for safety's sake, a security guard in the community calong.
After standing for a long time, the door finally opened.
Baldrick finally saw Maddox. He was a little excited. "Mr. Sebastian, I've finally found you." Maddox looked at the butler and said indifferently, "Baldrick, it's already so late. What's the matter?" After that, he glanced at the security guard behind him.
It was not until then that the security guard realized they knew each other. He said, "It turns out that you really know each other. Then I'll leave first." After the security guard left, Baldrick smiled shyly and said softly, "Mr. Sebastian, You haven't answered my calls, so I have to cto you personally." When Maddox heard this, his eyes turned colder. "I know what you're trying to do. I won't go back." Baldrick said, "He's your grandfather. You shouldn't act so childishly." Maddox frowned. Acting childishly? He was already an adult. What sort of temper could he have? He was only doing this to express his feelings to Jarold. No matter what, he wouldn't change his mind. Although he hadn't known Minerva for a long time.
She had filled the void in his heart. If he lost her, he felt as if he would lose his heart as well.
In this life, he would never give up on her.

Baldrick sighed, "I've followed Master Collins for so many years, and I can tell that he's not joking. No matter what, even if you want to quarrel with him, you are still his junior. Sometimes..." Baldrick paused for a while and didn't say anything more.
He had already said enough. How could someone as smart as Sebastian not be able to understand what he was implying? Maddox sneered. "If I compromise, will there be more and more situations like this in the future? Does he think this is how he can deal with my weakness?" Baldrick didn't know how to answer.
It didn't seem unreasonable for him to say so.
"Go ahead." Just as Baldrick was about to say something else to persuade Maddox, a soft female voice could be heard from behind.
Baldrick looked at the source of the sound.
Maddox also frowned and turned around at the stime. He said unhappily, "Didn't I tell you to stay in your room?" Minerva wore a coat as she stood there. Upon hearing this, she slowly walked forward and nodded at Baldrick, "Baldrick." Baldrick nodded at her.
Minerva said, "Just go back. At the end of the day, he is your grandfather. You shouldn't be so mean." Maddox stood still, and the frown on his face increased.
But Minerva's words made Baldrick look at her with a little more respect. Then he said, "Mr. Sebastian really has good taste. Miss Hanover is right. Think about it, Mr. Sebastian, if you always treat Master Collins like this, he will only dislike Miss Hanover more. Actually, Miss Dormer is with Master Collins. I heard a bit of their conversation when I was outside. She said she doesn't have to be engaged to you, however, she wanted to see you and tell you sthings." Maddox sneered, "What does this have to do with me? Can she get engaged just because she wants to?" Minerva tugged at his sleeve, "Go ahead. It's like Baldrick said. If you really fought with your grandfather because of me, it'll only make him hateeven more." Minerva took a few steps forward and smiled, "I won't be sleeping so early. Hurry up and return. I'll wait for you." Her soft words easily entered Maddox's heart. He was stunned for a second, and his deep gaze fell on Minerva's face.
"Aren't you worried that I won't cback?" He asked.
Minerva shook her head, "You wouldn't." Her eyes and tone were firm, there was no hesitation at all. She trusted him very much.
Being trusted so much by her, Maddox subconsciously reached out his hand and lightly tapped her nose.
"Wait forto cback." He said.
"Okay," Minerva answered.
Before leaving, Baldrick looked at Minerva with gratitude and said, "Thank you for your help, Miss Hanover. Thank you very much." "You're too kind. I just don't want their relationship to deteriorate because of me," Minerva replied.
"Miss Hanover is very sensible. I hope Master Collins will approve of you," Baldrick said.
"Thank you," Minerva said.
After that, Maddox told her to lock the door and not open it even if she heard any more doorbell ringing that night. Just wait for him to return.
Minerva told him not to worry. After that, Maddox left with Baldrick.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter they left, Minerva returned to her room and laid down on the bed. She suddenly remembered what Baldrick had said earlier.
He said that Monica wanted to meet Maddox for the last tand then not get engaged to him?
Minerva suddenly felt that something was not right. When she met Monica a few times before, the expression in her eyes did not seem to be as willing to give up. Why did she suddenly change her mind? Was there any conspiracy in this? After thinking for a while, Minerva still didn't feel at ease, so she took out her phone to call Geoffrey.
When Geoffrey received Minerva's call, he was still indulging in alcohol and women. He ran out as soon as he saw the caller ID.
People around him couldn't help but complain.
"Why has Geoffrey been receiving so many calls at night lately? There's someone every night. What's going on?" "I don't know." "Alas, I miss the days in the past." Geoffrey found a quiet place to answer Minerva's call.
"Minerva, why are you callingso late? Is there something important?" "Yeah," Minerva told Geoffrey everything that had just happened, "I'm a little worried, but it's really not good forto show up, so..."
Geoffrey understood what she meant immediately, "Don't worry. I know what to do. Your intuition is correct.
also feel that there's something wrong with Monica's way of doing things. How could she give up on Sebastian so easily? Based on her personality, I think that she might be up to no good." Upon hearing this, Minerva held her breath, "Then..." | "I'm going to rush over to the Collins family home. I'll try my best not to alert others. Let's wait and see first." Minerva thought for a moment and said, "How about I go with you?" "No way, Minerva. If something really happened, it'll be too dangerous... But don't worry, I'll definitely protect Sebastian and bring him back to you in one piece."
Minerva knew what he meant. She was a woman, and she probably wouldn't be of much help even if she went, she might even add to the trouble. In the end, she had no choice but to agree.
