Why was he here? Minerva's face blanched and after Nickolas saw Maddox, his facial expression also became ugly.

Maddox Yardley?

Why was he there?

Although Nickolas felt that Minerva's appearance was to his liking, he did not do anything because of the cool Maddox, who was there during the tailgating incident last time. Nickolas did not know if Minerva was together with Maddox or not.

Since she attended the blind date today, it was obvious... that she had nothing to do with him.

However, Maddox had appeared.

Before the two of them could react, the tall figure stood up from the table next to theirs. His straight legs moved in a steady manner. Very quickly... He sat beside Minerva. Minerva became speechless.

Maddox had always been sitting behind her? Then why didn't she notice? Could it be that she had been too engrossed in the photos earlier?

No matter how she thought about it, that was the only possibility.

The moment Maddox sat down, the surrounding atmosphere around him started to become cold.

His presence emitted coolness, the kind that clearly communicated that he was not to be trifled with, warning everyone to stay away. Minerva was also shrouded in that isolating aura of his.

The combination of a good-looking couple was always particularly eye-catching, not to mention the prideful look Maddox showed. Nickolas suddenly felt that he was the one whose presence didn't matter.

But... Minerva came for the blind date so it was very telling of the reason why...

Nickolas' hand tightened under the table. His indignant gaze swept across Minerva's face.

He didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Thinking of this, Nickolas looked at Maddox and said, "President Yardley, what a coincidence."

"Coincidence?" Maddox narrowed his eyes and sized him up dangerously. His thin lips curled up into an unfriendly arc as he

continued, "Not a coincidence. I specifically come here."

Nickolas went silent.

As did Minerva.

How did Maddox know that she was on a blind date here?

And hadn't he disappeared for the past few days? Why did he suddenly appear again?

Not only that, but he also started to mess up Minerva's blind date as soon as he appeared? Even though she didn't like this blind date very much, it wasn't up to Maddox to interfere. "President Yardley, what do you mean..."

"Are you two on a blind date?" Maddox suddenly asked.

Nickolas was stunned for a moment before nodding his head. "Isn't it obvious?"

Maddox suddenly drew close to Minerva to the point that he could even hear her breathing. Before Minerva could frown, she heard him say in an evil voice, "Last night in bed... You said there's something you had to do today. Is this what you were referring to?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Nickolas and Minerva's expressions changed at the same time.

Minerva turned her head and widened her eyes in disbelief as she looked at Maddox, who was right in front of her.

What was this b*stard talking about?

"Miss Hanover, you..." Nickolas looked at Minerva, feeling like he was being suffocated.

Minerva lowered her eyes. Since Maddox wanted to stir up trouble, she would not go along with him.

Thinking about this, Minerva changed her previous cold and indifferent attitude. She raised her eyes to look at Nickolas for a moment, then smiled and denied, "No."

Just a word could bring boundless power to Nickolas.

As long as she denied it, it meant that it was just a one-sided crush from Maddox on Minerva. Thus, Nickolas would still have a chance.

Nickolas was excited. He coughed lightly and said, "That's good. President Yardley... Interfering in a love affair isn't a good virtue. I hope you can stop."

Minerva stood up and said, "Mr. Quartley, do you mind changing to another place to continue our date?"

Seeing that she had stood up, Nickolas also stood up nervously. He nodded and said. "Of course I don't mind. It's up to you to decide."

"Okay." Minerva smiled. She turned around and prepared to leave.

Minerva felt something tighten around her wrist. She turned around and saw Maddox grabbing her hand. His face darkened.

"Where are you going?"

His voice was cold and held a warning in it.

Seeing this, Nickolas glanced nervously at Minerva.

After a while, Minerva reached out and pushed Maddox's hand away. She replied with a cold look, "It's none of your business."

After she finished saying those words, she turned around and started to walk outside together with Nickolas.

After exiting the cafe, Nickolas took out the car key and said, "Miss Hanover, please wait here for a while. I'll go get the car." "Okay." Minerva nodded. "Thank you."

As soon as she smiled at him, Nickolas immediately felt that his heart was about to melt. Although her smile wasn't genuine, it was still beautiful.

Nickolas went to retrieve his car while Minerva walked to the side of the road and waited.

A silver Bentley stopped in front of her, and the window winded down, revealing Maddox's profile. "Get in."

He ordered coldly.

Minerva didn't pay him any attention. Instead, she looked away as if she didn't see this person.

Maddox's annoyance was clear in his furrowed brows but he restrained himself from acting. However, the dark gloom in his eyes was as dark as the night sky. He tightened his grip on the steering wheel even more. "Minerva, I'll give you one last chance. Get in the car."

Unexpectedly, not only did she ignore him, she even walked away.

It just so happened that Minerva saw Nickolas's car driving over, so she walked towards Nickolas' car.

Nickolas' car also stopped in front of her. Then, he opened the car door for her in a very gentlemanly manner. "Miss Hanover, please get in."

"Thank you." Minerva bent down and was about to sit down when something tightened around her waist.

The next second, she was held in the air. "Ah!" Minerva cried out in alarm as she struggled with all her might.

"President Yardley, what is the meaning of this?" Nickolas' face was ashen as he looked coldly at Maddox, who was carrying Minerva on his shoulders.

"Humph." Maddox sneered and the coldness in his eyes surged. "What's wrong? Do you want to take her away from me, Mr. Quartley? Did you not learn enough from last time?"

Nickolas pursed his lips and retorted, "She's not willing to go with you."

"If you have the guts, feel free to come and snatch her away from me." After saying this, Maddox immediately carried Minerva and turned to leave.

"Maddox Yardley, let me go!" Minerva's stomach was resting on Maddox's shoulder. Besides, his bones were very hard and it hurt her stomach.

Moreover, the posture he held her made her feel dizzy and extremely uncomfortable.

She felt that she was about to throw up all the coffee she had just drunk.

However, Minerva could still hear Maddox's harsh words towards Nickolas. When Maddox walked back, she happened to see Nickolas standing there. The expression on his face was exceptionally conflicted. In the end, he did not go forward any further.

At last, Minerva was shoved into the car by Maddox. The sudden change in position made her dizzy and her head spin.

Bang!

The car door was locked and Maddox's tall body pressed down on her. He grabbed the back of her head and kissed her directly.

"Uh."

Minerva's lips were blocked and she felt even more dizzy and confused.

Her actions that day must have provoked him. As such, Maddox's actions were exceptionally brusque and he bit down on her lower lip.

Minerva's beautiful brows furrowed tightly as the taste of blood spread between her lips and teeth.

After a long while, Maddox retreated and said coldly, "You want to get in his car? Don't even think about it!"
