Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 633

Of course, Maddox didn't let go of Minerva.

He knew that if he let her push him away, it would be more difficult for him to figure out what was going on.

Hence, he tightened his grip on her waist. No matter what she did, he was adamant and refused to let go. Eventually, Minerva was worn out and she stopped to stare at him with gritted teeth. Maddox let out a sigh.

"I had to suddenly go abroad because there was an important deal I needed to negotiate."

Minerva looked at him and didn't reply. However, it was obvious from the look in her eyes that she did not believe him.

Maddox could only continue to explain, "The meeting went on for pretty long, plus you know the distance between here and there. After that I went to pick a present for you and rushed back here overnight." As he spoke, he leaned forward so that she could clearly see the blood vessels in her eyes.

"I'm a person who's willing to give my life up for you. Do you think I would be seeing anyone else? Minerva, honestly... What goes through your mind?"

He let out a soft sigh and bent down to hug her tightly.

"I've been loyal to you for five years. I'm afraid that no one can cure my mysophobia except you."

In his arms, Minerva did not move at all. She didn't seem to be moved by his words one bit. Maddox was puzzled and slowly stepped back to look at her.

"You still don't trust me?"

Minerva stared at him and sneered.

"You're very good with sweet talking. I wonder where you learned all this in the past five years. I wonder if you're saying how you feel though? Or are you thinking differently in your heart?" Maddox was speechless.

"Who did you sleep with last night?"

He furrowed his brows, "You're being a little unreasonable today, aren't you?"

"I am being unreasonable?"

Her eyes widened. Minerva suddenly realized that she had nothing to do with him anymore. This was indeed unreasonable.

But... So what if she wanted to be unreasonable?

Minerva looked at Maddox and thought about how he had slept with another woman on the same bed the night before. They might even have had s*x. She felt sick to her stomach. "Get the hell out of my way!"

She yelled loudly, "Get out of here and go back to your other woman."

At first, Maddox thought that she was just suspicious, and that she was just testing and mocking him, but now, he felt that something was not quite right. If she was just testing him, why was she so enraged?

"Could it be?"

An image of the night before flashed before Maddox's eyes.

Monica was sitting on the sofa with his phone in her hand. At that time, there was a smug smile at the corner of her mouth, as if she had just won something.

At that time, her eyes flashed with a hint of panic when she saw him. However, she quickly calmed down and called his phone.

Perhaps...

Maddox narrowed his eyes, with a hint of danger in his gaze.

"Could it be that Monica had secretly entered his room while he was showering and used his phone to do something bad?"

"Was that why Minerva was so angry?"

There was nothing going on between him and Monica. Even if Minerva didn't know, he had nothing to hide.

As soon as he thought of this possibility, Maddox immediately asked, "Did someone call you last night?"

Minerva was silent.

She didn't expect him to get straight to the point, so she sneered, "Who do you think called me?"

"A woman." Maddox spoke without hesitation.

She was stunned, "So you're admitting it?"

Judging from her expression, he had more or less guessed what was going on. He snorted coldly and said, "That woman is the sister of my business partner. My partner was the one who arranged the hotel for me. She stole a room card and snuck in."

"What do you mean?"

He grabbed her wrist and stared at her seriously with his dark eyes. He whispered in a low voice.

"It means that if someone called you last night, whatever she said, it's not true."

She didn't know how to respond.

After a long moment of silence, she smirked again.

"Why should I believe in you? You were abroad and I wasn't around. Of course, you can say whatever you want."

This sentence was really heart-wrenching. After Minerva finished speaking, she noticed that Maddox's face changed slightly and his eyes sank.

"You don't trust me at all, do you?"

Trust?

"When have the two of us ever had trust between us?"

The atmosphere was strangely silent.

Minerva naturally knew what Maddox was thinking about. He felt like she didn't trust him, so she mentioned what happened five years ago and told him to think it over.

He didn't trust her back then either.

"You're always the only one who suspects me," Minerva said firmly. Her voice seemed to have calmed down a lot. "Now it's my turn, right? Maddox, don't think too highly of yourself. You can't control everything I'm no longer the same Kimberly I was five years ago. I no longer live in fear of the Yardley family. Neither am I the woman who endured the humiliation of being mocked in front of all your employees. I knew you didn't have me in your heart, but I still doted on you like a fool. Not anymore."

"That person died a long time ago. Five years have passed and you still haven't seen through it? Since we reunited until now, you've always wanted to get back together with me, but have you ever thought about it? How much suffering I went through back then? How you used to treat me? Why did I have to wait for you in the rain until I fainted just because you refused to see me? Why should I trust you just because you want me to?"

"All I know is that when I called you, it was a woman who answered the phone. I don't want to investigate the misunderstanding. As the President, you went abroad for a meeting. Somehow it was so easy for another person to get a hold of your room card huh? It seems unbelievable to me."

Minerva pushed Maddox away and turned her back towards him.

"The person I am now is someone who has dignity. If you can't guarantee that you will be able to give me happiness and stability, then don't ever show up in front of me again."

"Forever."

Her words were cold and determined.

By the time Minerva entered the lounge, Maddox was still in a daze.

After he came to his senses, he realized that the situation had been completely reversed by a single phone call from the night before. His face suddenly flashed green and his hands hanging by his sides were clenched into fists.

Monica Dormer!

After entering the lounge, Minerva leaned against the door and gently gasped.

Her heart was pounding with adrenaline. She had spoken so harshly to Maddox. Now, he must know that if he didn't solve his own issues, he shouldn't come look for her anymore.

It was better if he didn't come looking for her. She was tired of dealing with the two brothers anyway. Previously she had talked to Beanie about recognizing Maddox as his father, but now, it looked like she had to take the chance to explain things thoroughly to him.

Minerva closed her eyes, feeling a little tired.

Such was life...
