It was Geoffrey, the man who dragged her to the bar the previous night and even deceived her.

When she thought of how she had been put in a difficult position by Uriah and how he had stood aside and watched, Minerva was furious. She immediately turned around and walked away. "Hey, don't go." Geoffrey quickly caught up with her and stopped her with a pleasant smile on his face. "You're not angry with me because of what happened last night, are you?"

She was stunned.

He had done such a terrible thing. Yet, he made it sound as if something had happened between the two of them.

She frowned and berated him when she noticed the gazes around her, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Only then did he realize that everyone was looking at them. He coughed slightly and lowered his voice.

"I know that I was wrong, so I took this opportunity to come over and apologize to you," he said.

She pursed her pink lips and uttered coldly, "I don't

need it."

Then, she moved straight past Geoffrey and walked toward the canteen.

At this moment, a petite figure ran towards her. As she ran, she waved her arms and called out, "Minerva, wait for me."

Geoffrey heard her voice, and it seemed to be a little familiar. Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw a figure walking towards his direction, getting closer and closer.

"Hey, isn't this the little beauty I met in the elevator that day?" He thought.

"Minerva." Lolita ran over, and she immediately intimately held her hand.

Minerva was a little helpless. She realized that Lolita was rather friendly. She did not like Lolita, but... she did not hate her actions. Hence, she decided to let her do as she pleased. Therefore, she nodded at her and said, "Well, let's go to eat."

"Okay," Lolita answered excitedly. She hadn't noticed Geoffrey yet.

Geoffrey was a bit disappointed. He was so handsome that he was the center of attention wherever he went, but he didn't expect that the two women in front of him would just ignore him.

One of them couldn't even see him. He was like an invisible man beside them.

He was a little depressed but soon recovered his energy. He looked at Lolita and waved at her. "Hey, little beauty, we meet again."

It was only then that she noticed a person was standing next to Minerva. She felt that he seemed a little familiar at first glance. Geoffrey's appearance was rather flirty and handsome. Regardless of whether he opened his mouth to speak, his long, narrow, and smiling eyes gave one a particular sense of playfulness.

What's more, he had flirted with Lolita in the elevator.

Therefore, after she recognized him, her face immediately darkened a little.

As if she didn't see Geoffrey, nor did she hear him greet her, she withdrew her gaze.

Geoffrey was caught off guard.

"Sh*t, what's up with these two women?" He thought.

Minerva and Lolita were heading in the direction of the cafeteria. He recalled the incident that happened the previous night and felt that if he didn't get her forgiveness that day, his days in the future would be even more miserable.

Thinking of this, he quickly followed Minerva.

"My dear future Mrs. Sebastian, please don't be angry. I really didn't mean it last night, and I didn't lie to you, right?" He defended himself.

Minerva, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stopped in her tracks. She frowned and stood where she was.

"Future Mrs. Sebastian?"

"Yes," he replied and gave her a big smile. "Aren't you dating Sebastian? Then you are the future Mrs. Sebastian."

She retorted, "Who told you that I'm dating him?"

She used to date Maddox, but he couldn't remember her. It was okay if Geoffrey talked nonsense in front of her, but what if he told Maddox?

What would happen to her reputation?

"No, it can't be like this," she thought.

He saw the serious look on her face and felt confused.

"Wasn't Sebastian the guy who saved you last night?" He added.

Lolita felt that she had heard a lot of information, but since the two were talking, she was too embarrassed to interrupt, so she could only listen to them obediently.

"He came to my rescue solely because you brought me there, don't you understand? Also, are you a man? After bringing me to a place like that, you just stood by and watched?" She let out a cold sneer and glared at him with a gaze full of mockery.

The look in her eyes made him feel uncomfortable. He bit his tongue in annoyance and scratched his scalp harder.

"I really didn't do it on purpose. Back then, I wanted to save you, but Sebastian came. However I admit that I did bring you there on purpose because I thought that Sebastian would definitely come. I didn't think that Uriah would be so bold. He actually dared to touch Sebastian's woman..." Geoffrey tried to defend himself.

The volume of his voice was not low, which attracted quite a lot of people's attention. They began whispering.

"Are you done yet? If you have said enough, move aside. It's our lunch hour. I'm tired from working all morning, and I need to rest," Minerva scolded.

Geoffrey found that her eyes were bloodshot, and her complexion didn't look good. Was it because of what happened the night before?

Thinking of this, he felt even more guilty inside. He could only nod and he murmured, "Well then, you guys go ahead and eat. I won't bother you." When she had eaten and rested, he would come back and beg for her forgiveness.

Without saying anything else, Minerva and Lolita arrived at the canteen.

After they had bought their meal and sat down, Lolita still couldn't help biting her fork and she pried curiously.

"Minerva, can I ask a question?"

Minerva stopped eating and looked at her.

Lolita immediately waved her hand and added, "Well, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't. Just forget what I asked."

Minerva responded helplessly, "It was exactly what you heard. I can't say much about the rest either."

"What?" Lolita widened her eyes and moved her head closer little by little. Her voice was particularly low, and she whispered, "Are you really dating Mr. Sebastian?"

"No." Minerva shook her head and denied it.

She was not dating Maddox at all. Although they were almost married, an accident happened to him that day.

Fate was making fools of people.

No? Lolita was really curious; she felt as if she had discovered something extraordinary. She quickly reached out her hand to cover her mouth and then loosened her grip. "Don't worry, Minerva. We are both from Hidalgo. Your secret is safe with me," Lolita assured her.

Minerva didn't know how to react to her expression.

"What? Just pretend that you don't know anything," she replied.

"Okay, I didn't see or hear anything today. Don't worry."

Geoffrey went straight to Maddox after the incident with Minerva.
