Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 555

Of course it mattered. Sam didn't know who to look into for his second task, but since Young Master Yardley was looking for someone in the middle of the night, that person must be someone not ordinary. Next, he was to go check on the address of Young Madam and the situation in her surroundings, as well as check on someone else...

This put him in a very difficult position, didn't it?

But then, Sam's words changed again. "No, it has nothing to do with it. Got it, I'll look into it now."

Clatter!

As soon as he finished his words, Maddox hung up the phone.

Sam took a look at the time. He was so angry that he didn't know what to say. It was already late at night and it was time to rest. However, Maddox's instructions made it so that he had no time to rest. That was fine, but he was instructed to finish it within a certain period of time as well.

"Argh, it's good that he came to me. If it was someone else, how could that person stand an abnormal person like Young Master Yardley?" Sam signed.

Minerva didn't feel sleepy after taking a bath, thus she took out the design draft and drew for a while.

As it was quiet, if there was any slight movement around her, she could hear it. In addition, after that night's incident, she became extremely sensitive.

Hearing that there seemed to be movement in the next room, Minerva put down the design draft in her hand, got up and went to open the door of the next room.

After pushing the door open, Minerva saw that there was only a lamp lit in the room and that Beanie was obediently lying on the bed with a blanket over his body. His two small hands were placed on his chest. Seeing this, Minerva took off her shoes and walked in quietly. When she came to the bed, she heard the even sound of Beanie's breathing, confirming that he had really fallen asleep.

Could it be that she had misheard the noise just now?

After standing there for a while, Minerva went forward and tucked Beanie in the quilt. After making sure that he would not catch a cold, she left his room.

As soon as the room's door had just been closed, Beanie, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes. His black eyes blinked a little before he quietly sighed in relief.

It almost scared him to death.

He didn't expect Minerva to barge in all of a sudden. When he was going to sleep just now, he accidentally knocked down some things and made some sounds.

He was still up past his bedtime as he was sending emails to his daddy, Maddox. If Minerva found out, she would definitely think that he was being disobedient.

He wanted to be a very well-behaved child in front of Minerva. He didn't want her to be worried about him any longer.

When he thought of how he had already sent the email to Maddox, Beanie smacked his lips happily. Of course, he had to leave such a troublesome matter to Maddox.

In the past, Maddox's actions were indeed really dumb, which made Minerva sad for so many years. This made Beanie's heart ache a lot as well.

However, as long as Maddox had sincerely changed his behavior and was willing to be good to Minerva, then Beanie would probably forgive him. After all, he was his biological father!

Thinking of this, Beanie pursed his lips, turned his body over and then closed his eyes to sleep.

In the quiet night, Minerva was lying on the bed. She closed her eyes but her mind was still haunted by the image of the bloody scene.

That scene had really given her a huge shock.

After all, she and Vera had never seen such a terrible thing before, thus their mental state wasn't ready for this.

Although she had acted very calm on the spot, it didn't mean that Minerva wasn't affected at all.

After lying for a while, she found that she still couldn't fall asleep and she even refused to close her eyes. Therefore, she got up and took out her mobile phone to watch a show. No one knew how long it took for Minerva to fall asleep with her phone in her arms.

There seemed to be an earthquake in her dream. She could feel the tremors as she stood in the center of the empty space. She frowned. Suddenly, she heard a shout, "Minerva! Get up." She opened her eyes suddenly and realized that it wasn't an earthquake. Instead, Vera was shaking her shoulder with all her might.

"You finally woke up. Get up."

It was agonizing to be woken up by others.

Minerva struggled to lift her eyelids and did not close them again. She then sat up and stretched out her hand to massage her temples. She asked weakly, "What is it?"

Vera reached out and rubbed her cheeks hard. "What's going on? How can you still fall asleep after what happened yesterday?"

Minerva swatted her hand away, feeling a little embarrassed. Then, she hugged the blanket and fell back down.

Her headache was so bad and she didn't know when she managed to fall asleep the night before. She was feeling ill and she couldn't open her eyes.

"Hurry up, the police are coming."

Upon hearing the word "police", Minerva's senses were instantly stimulated. Then, she slowly opened her eyes, as if the sleeping spell on her had disappeared without a trace. She sat up from the bed after a millisecond.

"The police are here?"

Vera nodded hard. "Yes, it was very noisy downstairs, so I went to the window and found that there was a police car at the entrance. I don't know what happened."

After saying that, Vera gave Minerva a depressed look and said, "Why is your face so pale?"

Upon hearing this, Minerva looked up at her and replied, "You look pale too."

Vera was speechless.

Minerva stood up, opened the closet, took out a jacket and put it on. "Perhaps, it has something to do with what happened yesterday. Why don't we go down and have a look?"

"It's impossible, isn't it?" Vera tilted her head. "It's just a dead rabbit. Why would the police be involved? Could there be any other major events?"

"Let's just go and have a look."

As she spoke, Minerva had already left the room.

It was the weekend, thus she didn't have to go to work. She could always take a nap in the afternoon.

When they were about to leave the room, Minerva suddenly recalled something. She turned around and looked at Vera. "Why don't... Why don't you stay and accompany Beanie? I'm worried that he'll be alone at home."

"Beanie is still sleeping." After saying that, Vera glanced at the time and said, "It's not time for him to get up yet. His biological clock is always on time. You should know this since you are his mother, shouldn't you?"

Minerva also looked at the time. There was indeed still an hour before Beanie would wake up. Given that he didn't explore around...

That shouldn't be a problem.

"Well, let's just go and see. If there is nothing wrong, we'll come back right away."

"Alright."

Hence, the two of them left the room together. Minerva was worried and locked the door before she left. Then, she took the elevator down with Vera.

This residential district was quite large, but because there were two gates, there were not so many people coming in and out at usual hours. However, on this day, as the place was being controlled by the police, there was only a small path at the entrance of the district for guests to pass.

When Minerva and Vera arrived at the scene, they discovered that there had already been a large crowd of people. They could not see clearly what was happening in front of them.

Feeling a little helpless, Vera could only pat the shoulder of a tall man in front of her. She smiled sweetly and asked, "Sir, can you tell us what happened? Why are the police here? And why are there so many people around here as well?"
