Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1185

In the Ocean Villa.

There was only a dim lamp in the room. Minerva laid on the bed, half- asleep, and was feeling extremely uneasy.

Maddox, who had been by her side, sensed something wrong with her emotions. He held her hand and said softly, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Minerva was afraid that he would be worried. On top of that, she felt just slightly uncomfortable, so she did not tell him about it as she shook her head with a smile.

"Not really. I just can't seem to fall asleep..."

"Don't be afraid. I'm here." Maddox stretched out his arm and gently tucked the loose strands of her hair behind her ears. His voice was calm and poised, and it made her feel inexplicably safe and secure. Minerva nodded. She closed her eyes again and tried to sleep.

She was honestly quite sleepy and wanted to sleep, but her stomach was uncomfortable. It felt familiar... Like that night she gave birth to Beanie.

But there were still two days until she was due to deliver. Could it be that she was going to give birth in advance?

She'd better not scare herself. Minerva comforted herself as she closed her eyes.

After a while, she fell asleep dazedly, but the uncomfortable feeling in her stomach was getting more intense by the minute as if the baby in her belly was eager to come out.

Minerva opened her eyes again and met the nervous look in Maddox's eyes.

Her lips parted, but to her surprise, it was vaguely difficult for her to speak.

"Don't be nervous. I've already made a call. Auntie will be here soon."

"Auntie?" Minerva remembered that Abigail used to be a doctor and might know little about it, so she nodded.

Maddox wiped the cold sweat on her forehead as his heart ached, "Is your stomach hurting?"

"Yes, a little." Minerva nodded. The uncomfortable feeling was more obvious than before. She felt that she might be giving birth two days earlier than the expected date. She would tell Abigail about it when she arrived.

Abigail arrived soon after. Master Collins came along with her and was holding his walking stick, his face filled with anxiousness.

"What's going on? Is she already going to give birth?"

Abigail looked at him helplessly, "I asked you not to come along and be a nuisance, yet you still insisted on following in the middle of the night. Just keep quiet since you're here, can you? I won't have the time to care about you if she is really delivering."

Master Collins wasn't angered after hearing Abigail refuting him. He had gotten used to being treated like that. He had made mistakes in the past, but he didn't care if she scolded him now that Abigail was willing to stay by his side.

What mattered was as long as he had a place in his daughter's heart.

"So be it. Just take good care of Minerva!"

What he said sounded decent, and Abigail was quite satisfied with it, so she did not say anything.

When she entered Minerva's room, Master Collins waited outside.

After a while, Master Collins saw that Maddox had been chased out of the room as well. He then snickered in his heart and went up to talk to Maddox. "Maddox, how is it? Is Minerva going to give birth

soon?"

Maddox's brows were tightly knotted into a frown, and his lips were pursed together. He didn't answer Master Collins's questions, and he emitted a cold aura.

Seeing him that way, Jarold said rather delightedly, "Don't worry. It's like that when a woman gives birth. It'll be fine when the baby's out; you don't have to be so anxious." Maddox's brows furrowed even more. If the person in front of him wasn't his grandfather, he would have told him to get lost.

It was a pity that Master Collins was his elder, and he should set a good example as he was already a father.

Therefore, no matter how annoyed Maddox was, he still said nothing.

Maddox didn't say a word, but Master Collins wasn't angry either. He waited anxiously yet leisurely.

After a while, Abigail came out of the room.

"Let's go to the hospital. She might be giving birth to the baby in advance."

Maddox's face did not show any relaxation. He pursed his lips and wanted to say something else, but Abigail spoke, "I'll take care of her. Go get the car and pick her up from the nearest place possible." Maddox nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go right now."

Then, he turned around and left.

Master Collins stood where he was and said, "Where's Beanie?"

The servant beside him replied, "He should be sleeping by this hour."

"Asleep? His mother is going to deliver soon, yet he is still able to fall asleep? Go wake him up."

Abigail was speechless.

The servant hesitated for a bit, but

since Master Collins ordered, she had no choice but to do so. However Abigail stopped her almost immediately. "Don't. He can't do anything even if he tags along. The two of you will only cause more

trouble if you follow along. Just stay here and don't go anywhere."

Master Collins was initially afraid that he would be bored waiting outside the labor room. After all, that brat wouldn't talk to him at all. From the looks of it, he might even be even more anxious than ever. So he wanted to bring Beanie along; at least they could chat or something.

Who knew that Abigail would directly deny his idea? That wasn't good!

"Who says that the two of us will only cause trouble? Minerva is going to give birth, so as a family member, we have to be there. Although we aren't able to do much, we can still tag along to let everyone see how important my granddaughter-in-law is having so many people keeping her company when she gives birth in the middle of the night."

Abigail didn't know what to say.

What he said may have sounded sensible, but Abigail found that she couldn't refute it. Alas...

"Abigail, you think what I said is quite right, don't you? Go and wake Beanie up."

The servant glanced at Abigail and then at Master Collins, and she seemed to be asking for further instruction.

Abigail had no choice but to nod, "Alright then, go wake him up. Leave him be if he's sleeping too soundly."

"I'll go myself." Master Collins immediately went forward with his walking stick.

Abigail had a short-lived peace now that Master Collins was gone, but soon Maddox drove over. Abigail instructed him to carry Minerva and put her in the back seat of the car. Maddox then drove, and Abigail sat in the back. Perhaps because they were in a hurry, the car left the Ocean Villa in no

time.

When Master Collins finally woke Beanie up from his deep slumber, and they were done packing their stuff, the whole place was already empty.

"Where are they!?" Master Collins shouted with displeasure, "Can't they even wait for us for a while?"

Beanie blinked and didn't know what was going on, but he had a hunch as to what it was with that smart brain of his.

Jarold told him earlier that

something had happened and

ordered him to get up quickly. He hadn't a clue, but when he saw that his parents weren't around, he had an idea as to what it was. He tugged at Jarold's sleeve and said softly, "Great-grandpa, Mommy is going to give birth, isn't she? They surely can't wait for us. It's fine if we go on our own."
