Brock felt that Maddox was so dull. He didn't even listen to the advice that people were trying to give him. He curled his lips and said, "Young man, you shouldn't be so arrogant. If you go on like this, you will suffer in the future."

"Since you don't want to listen, then I won't say it."

Brock chased after his wife. Maddox looked at him and followed expressionlessly.

"Let me tell you, you can't pamper him too much. Otherwise, you will have no power in the family. Remember this, you should play hard to get at times. You can't be too nice to him. Only then will he remember your importance. In that situation just now, you should make your own decision. If he doesn't follow you, you don't have to pay attention to him. He will come after you later."

Minerva was embarrassed as she felt that she didn't need to learn those. After all, Maddox wasn't her husband. What was the point of learning them?

However, Betty was very enthusiastic. If Minerva told her that he was not her husband, it would be like pouring a bucket of cold water on her.

Minerva treated it as gaining another companion.

"Thank you, Betty. I got it."

"Hey, your husband looks good and he is tall. He looks distant though. Do you mind if I ask if he's the same in bed?"

Minerva was caught off guard. She looked at Betty in disbelief. Why would she ask such a question?

"I'm sorry, I know this is private, but I'm curious since he's so handsome."

After being asked, Minerva thought of what had happened before.

Was he this cold when he was in bed? Of course not. His performance in bed was the total opposite of who he was in real life.

When he had his clothes on, he was calm, collected and heartless.

When his clothes were off, he was full of passion, greedy and extremely possessive.

Especially at the very last moment, his eyes and expression could only be described in one word.

That was desire.

Minerva did not dare to look at him that every moment. She felt that he would rub her into his body if he could.

"Does he last exceptionally long?" Betty asked again, causing Minerva to jump in shock. She suddenly came back to her senses. "What did you say?"

The smile on Betty's face became a little naughty. "Are you really not going to disclose anything further? Do you want me to tell you about my husband?" Seeing that Betty was about to say something, Minerva was so scared that her face flushed red. She could not stay any longer and started running away.

"Hey, I haven't finished speaking. Why are you running away?" Betty was confused.

Maddox anxiously chased after her when she ran off. She finally stopped after she was some distance away from Betty. He caught up with Minerva and grabbed hold of her wrist. "What's wrong?"

A cold voice suddenly rang out over her head. Minerva raised her head and saw that it was Maddox who had caught up to her. The moment she saw his emotionless face, she recalled a scene from before. He face was blushing as if it was dripping blood.

He must not have heard what Betty had said to her earlier, had he?

Han Minerva shook her head. "Nothing."

Maddox narrowed his eyes suspiciously. His gaze landed on her flushed face and then on her reddened earlobe.

It used to be fair, but why had it turned red now?

"What did she tell you?" Maddox asked.

Minerva's face instantly turned blood red. She shook her head vigorously and said, "Nothing. Why are you grabbing my wrist? Let it go..."

At the same time, Brock and Betty caught up with them. Seeing this, Betty couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why are you two holding hands again? Let's go shopping together and continue with our little chat." After saying this, Betty snatched Minerva's hand from Maddox's. She grabbed her and pulled her far away.

Maddox looked at the ladies, lost in thought.

What were those two talking about just now?

Brock continued following him with a smile. Maddox didn't say anything and could only pick up his steps and keep up with them.

Along the way, Betty told Minerva lots of things.

Finally, she even added her on Facebook. When she found out that Minerva was a designer, she was quite surprised. She knew a few designers. If there was a chance, she could introduce them to her. Since they were neighbors, Minerva agreed with a smile.

She had learned a lot from just talking to her. Betty taught her in detail how to pick fresh vegetables and meat.

When they were about to enter the daily necessities area, they met a person at the corner.

He had black hair, gold-rimmed glasses and was wearing a white shirt. His smile was as pleasant as a spring breeze.

Minerva was stunned when she saw Benedict. She did not expect to run into him there.

She thought for a moment and guessed that Benedict might have done it on purpose. After all, he said that he would wait for her here.

Could it be the same that day?

"What a coincidence." Looking at her surprised face, Benedict smiled and greeted her.

Looking at the handsome man, Betty looked at Minerva, then at Benedict, and whispered in her ear, "An old flame?"

These words almost caused Minerva to swallow a mouthful of saliva. She helplessly closed her eyes before turning to look at Betty who was standing behind her.

How could honest Brock have such a strange and mischievous wife? Furthermore, she was extremely straightforward. When she asked Minerva if Benedict was an old flame, she didn't even lower her voice. Minerva was embarrassed and could only say, "No."

Then, she seemed to have thought of something and turned around.

However, she discovered that there was no one behind her. Maddox was nowhere to be found.

Where did he go?

"Brock has taken him somewhere else. They should be somewhere nearby." Betty explained, "You just realized that now? You don't seem to care about your husband."

Minerva was speechless.

Forget it. She was too focused on listening to Betty that she had gradually forgotten about whether Maddox was following behind her.

She didn't expect to meet Benedict there. She wanted to turn back and see what Maddox's reaction was.

After all, the two brothers didn't get along. If they bumped into each other now, there would definitely be a conflict.

Thinking of this, Minerva's heart fluttered with fear. Luckily, Maddox was not around.

"You came to buy something at the supermarket?" When Minerva was silent, Benedict asked again.

Before Minerva could respond, Betty nodded.

"Yes. Are you here to shop too?"
