Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) -
Chapter 780
After meeting Maddox, Geoffrey told him about how that foreigner Uriah was forced to drink until he passed out the previous night. He was then sent to the hospital. After making sure Uriah was still alive, he left.
Maddox's expression was calm after listening to what he said.
Geoffrey was speechless.
D*mn it! This guy had no expression at all!
Geoffrey cursed him in his heart, but on second thought, he realized that he was not acting like how he was when he came to save Minerva the night before.
At that time, he kicked Uriah so hard that there was a crack in the wine cabinet when Geoffrey checked it.
It was really a blessing that Uriah's bones didn't break.
Geoffrey touched his chin and asked, "Did you do anything to Minerva after sending her back?"
Maddox paused when he heard that. His eyes landed on Geoffrey's face indifferently.
He retorted, "Do you think I am the same as you?".
Geoffrey laughed at him, "Haha. You didn't dare to do it? Are you still a man? You have such a good chance. A hero saving a beauty, but you refuse to do it. Are you incompetent or..."
As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something terrifying. He sprang up from the sofa and walked to Maddox's side, narrowing his eyes.
"You're not afraid, are you?" He questioned.
Maddox still sat expressionlessly, as if he did not care about what he said.
If Geoffrey hadn't witnessed how he rescued Minerva and took revenge on Uriah the previous night, he might really have thought Sebastian was a very cold, and even heartless person. However, it was a different story now. He saved her life and avenged her against Uriah. Moreover, he did nothing after sending her home.
There were only two explanations for things to turn out like this.
First, he was not interested in that woman and did not want to sleep with her.
But it wouldn't work at this point. If he wasn't interested in that woman, why would he come over and save her in such a short time after hanging up the phone?
In conclusion, he was interested in that woman.
Then, why didn't he sleep with her? It came down to the second point.
He wanted to do it but did not dare to do it... Or he could not bear to do it.
The more Geoffrey thought about it, the more terrified he felt. He even felt a sense of danger.
He wasn't sure if his guess was right, but he felt he needed to warn his friend.
"Sebastian, you aren't serious, are you?" He asked.
He thought, there was only one possibility. For a man like Sebastian, no woman could resist him. Even when the assistant heard that Sebastian would be at the bar, she was willing to go with him. Thus, if he wanted her, the chance of her rejecting him was too low...
The only possibility was that Sebastian did not want it.
"Sebastian, I'm telling you, you can't be serious to that woman," he advised.
He cornered Maddox like a nosy woman and added, "You know our family. Minerva looks like she does not have a strong family background. If you treat her seriously, you'll only harm her in the future." Maddox still ignored him, but Geoffrey was so anxious that he continued to say, "Let me put it bluntly. Our marriage can only be decided by the elders and we have to make sacrifices for our family. If you really fall for her, I advise you to take it back as soon as possible."
"Are you listening to me? I've been talking for a long time, and why don't you respond?" He complained.
He was lost for words
Maddox finally lifted his eyelids lazily and gave him a faint glance.
"Are you finished?"
Geoffrey nodded subconsciously.
"Then get the hell out of here," he ordered.
Geoffrey was speechless.
After talking for a long time, he only got a sentence as a reply? And he asked him to get lost?
He sneered in his heart and squeezed forward deliberately. "You want to drive me away? I will not leave. I'm telling you in advance that Master Collins really likes the daughter of the Dormer family. You are much likely to be engaged with her in the future, and I can see that the assistant is very obsessed with you. If you really have something to do with her, you might be entangled by her or maybe hurt her." A trace of impatience finally appeared in
Maddox's obsidian eyes. He reached out and rubbed his temple.
He felt that Geoffrey talked too much that day, which made him annoyed.
Geoffrey was about to say something else, but in the next second, he saw Maddox stand up. He grabbed his car keys and his coat then walked out of the office.
"Hey? I'm still talking. Where are you going?" He asked.
"Going out for lunch."
Maddox replied coldly.
"Lunch?" Geoffrey remembered that he had not eaten yet, so he followed him quickly, "Take me with you, I am hungry."
"I don't have time."
Geoffrey questioned, "What do you mean? Then I'll go to the canteen and have lunch with your woman?"
Maddox was stunned and he turned around. His cold and dark gaze fell on him.
Geoffrey suddenly felt his scalp was numb.
"Why... Why are you looking at me like that?" He stammered.
A fierce and sharp aura surrounded Maddox. "If I replace out that there's a next time about what happened last night..."
"Impossible." Geoffrey raised his hand to surrender immediately. "There will never be next time. I won't have lunch with Minerva, okay? I'll go with you."
Maddox finally withdrew his sharp gaze and walked forward at a steady pace. Geoffrey followed him helplessly. He really didn't understand what Maddox was thinking in his heart.
He looked calm on the outside, as if he had no feelings for her. However, he didn't allow others to get close to her. This was obviously a strong desire for possession.
Geoffrey thought about it all the way. When he was about to get out of the elevator, he couldn't help but ask.
"Tell me, Sebastian, are you dating her?"
Ding...
The elevator door opened at the moment, and Maddox walked out without looking back.
After Minerva finished her meal and said goodbye to Lolita, she went back to the secretary's office and rested on the couch.
She had only been interning for a few days and had never laid down on this sofa to rest. After all, she was working and she was a little embarrassed.
However, that day was different. Her eyes were sore and she really wanted to take a nap.
After Minerva closed the door, she laid down on the sofa, hugged a pillow, and fell asleep immediately.
She had a long dream. In the dream, Maddox pulled her into his arms and held her tightly. She missed his warm embrace and hugged him back with both hands.
However, she noticed that the body temperature of the person she was holding was dropping gradually and turned icy cold. In the end, it was as cold as ice and it made her shiver.
She was freezing and shivering. When she raised her head, she realized that she was no longer hugging Maddox but a piece of ice.
She turned around to look for him. She saw him fall from the plane into the boundless sea along with a loud bang.
"Don't... Don't!" She shouted.
