Monica's face turned pale. She didn't expect Maddox to talk to her so bluntly, which made her feel embarrassed.
"Sebastian... I'm sorry, I don't want to use this as a reason to ask you to get engaged to me. The elders decide the engagement. I also thought that you would agree at the beginning." She stammered. "Well now that you know, don't pesteranymore," Maddox's voice was cold. There was no emotion or warmth at all.
Her face turned even paler. She bit her lower lip tightly, but her eyes were still red. She thought that Maddox would at least feel a little sorry for her, but she didn't expect that... he actually had no feelings at all.
Monica raised her head and looked at him.
The light and shadows in the corridor intertwined, and the man's tall figure was in the light. His handsface becmore handsat this moment. Monica didn't know whether it was her lust or not. Even if he turned her down so coldly, she still felt that every word and action from Maddox was still touching her heart.
"I understand what you're talking about. So... I cto the Collins family to make it clear to you. But there are a lot of people here, can you cin and talk?" She said.
She lowered her eyelids and gritted her teeth, "I don't want others to see." Maddox pursed his lips and glanced at the room behind her. Remembering the scene where she suddenly hugged him in the office that day, he sneered, "I think I have already made it very clear." "I still want to explain it to you," Monica raised her head and saw a thin layer of sweat on Maddox's forehead. She seamlessly shook off her collar and revealed her fair shoulder.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJudging from his appearance, the philter had begun to take effect slowly.
Thinking of this, Monica's eyes flashed a hint of success.
As long as the philter took effect, all she had to do was gently seduce him, and the rest of the matter would becmuch simpler. When the two of them slept together, she would take a photo and send it to Minerva personally. She was sure Minerva would give up.
Then Maddox would be hers.
The more Monica thought about it, the more pleased she felt. The joy showed obviously on her face and in her eyes.
The sweat on Maddox's forehead accumulated more and more. He actually felt a burst of heat coming from his body in such cold weather, and it was extremely fast. At first, he thought that it was because he felt furious when he saw Monica, so he couldn't help feeling hot in his heart.
However, gradually, Maddox realized that something was wrong.
The unknown fire seemed to have risen from his lower abdomen and rushed up to his head. Suddenly, the woman in front of him showed her shoulders.
Monica walked slowly towards him, "Sebastian, look at me..." Maddox quickly shifted his gaze away and turned around to leave. Monica's heart was filled with anxiety as she rushed forward to hug him, "Don't go. Can you take a look at me? Just a glance, just one. I'm jus as good as she is. Whatever she has, I do too. Look at me, please?" She wrapped her arms around his waist tightly. Her soft body continued to push against him.
Even though Maddox knew at this moment that there was something wrong with his body, he was still level- headed. When Monica pushed against him, he did not get any relief but felt disgusted instead.
"Go away!" He angrily rebuked. The cold aura emitting from his body caused Monica to shiver. However, she very quickly tightened her grip around Maddox's waist again.
This was her only opportunity. There was no room for her to fail.
Therefore, the dosage she gave was hefty. She knew that if she failed, she wouldn't have any more chances in the future.
The philter had just taken effect, therefore he was still able to think rationally.
Soon when the philter reached its full effect, the man in front of her would becirrational, and he would only react instinctively. Thinking of this, Monica's eyes began to turn red with excitement.
She had to hold on. After this night, she would be able to stay with Maddox for the rest of their lives. No one would be in their way.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe veins on Maddox's forehead popped. Knowing the woman was still hugging him, he squinted his eyes, grabbed the hands around his waist, and pushed them away.
He didn't know how much force he had used, but since this woman was so despicable as to drug him, she should not blhim for being impolite.
A woman's scream cfrom behind. Maddox went down the stairs without ever turning his head. Monica didn't expect that she would be thrown out. With a bang, her head hit the wall, and the pain made her dizzy. When she finally recovered from the pain and wanted to find Maddox again, he was nowhere to be found. Geoffrey had been waiting for a long toutside the gates of the Collins family home. Tpassed but there didn't seem to be any movement inside.
Looking at the time, Sebastian had been in there for quite a while. Why hadn't there been any movements? When Geoffrey remembered that Minerva was still waiting for Maddox, he could no longer sit still. He decided to get out of his car and go into the house to check on the situation. If there were something wrong he would immediately take him away.
Just as Geoffrey got out, he saw a tall figure walking towards him.
Wasn't this Sebastian? "D*mn it. You finally cout. I was beginning to think you wouldn't cout tonight." Geoffrey shouted.
As he approached, Geoffrey noticed something wrong with the man's gaze and expression. Cold sweat kept pouring down from his forehead, and it could be seen from his tightly pursed thin lips that he was restraining great pain.
"What... what is going on?" Geoffrey took a good look at him but didn't see any wounds or there stains But What was the reason for him to suppress himself like this? Maddox's pale lips moved and he said coldly, "Getout of here." Geoffrey nodded subconsciously, "Get in the car."
On the other hand, Minerva tossed and turned on her bed for a long time, there still wasn't any news from Geoffrey. It was already so tate, why was there no news at all? After thinking about it for a while, Minerva got up and decided to change her clothes and go out to have a look. However, before she could get her coat, the doorbell rang. Minerva's first thought was that Maddox had returned. She had been waiting anxiously the whole night, so she rushed out of her room barefoot, let alone caring to take a jacket.
The apartment had an anti-theft front door. When Minerva saw Geoffrey and Maddox on the other side of it, she quickly let them in.
"Minerva!" Geoffrey helped Maddox in and asked as soon as he entered, "Where is the bathroom?" Minerva was shocked. Why did he ask for the bathroom the moment he entered? However, as soon as she looked at Maddox, her heart hung in her throat. She closed the door and turned around, "Follow me." X
