Chapter 480


    Janice became scared as that thought crossed her mind.


    She knew that she was too impulsive but there was no turning back.


    It was toote for her to step back now.


    "Fine." Janice nodded and said, "Just do it. Do you think that I''m afraid?"


    Minerva smiled and said, "Miss Lowell, your courage is truly admiring."


    However, as soon as Janice pressed the phone, the people next to her hurriedly stopped her.


    "Forget it, we''d better leave."


    "That''s right Janice, don''t argue with a woman like her. It''s so shameless of her to steal someone


    else''s boyfriend and then use her power to oppress others!"


    "She''s so shameless. She must be really good at snatching men. We are all daughters of rich


    families. Don''t bother to argue with this kind of woman!"


    "What are you all doing?" Janice wanted to create some entertainment news but the girls she


    brought along kept stopping her.


    Janice asked in fury.


    On the other side of the room, Minerva was watching in silence. On the contrary, Vera sneered, "It


    seems that your friends are all cowards. Didn''t they ask who''s thepany''s owner beforeing


    to create trouble? So you are afraid now? When you all leaveter, I will investigate your


    backgrounds one by one in detail."


    Their faces turned pale instantly.


    Janice was the one who called them over, and among all of them, her family had the most power.


    Janice told them that the man she had been seeing had been snatched away and that the man was


    Maddox. They were displeased and offered to regain justice for her.


    However, who would have expected that it was the Hanover family!


    Even if they were to offend the Lowell Family, they would rather not offend the Hanover family.


    "Well, we didn''t mean to hurt you just now. We tripped you by ident. Don''t be angry at us. We''ll


    apologize to you."


    "What are you all doing? Why are you apologizing to such a person?" Janice was so outraged. She


    didn''t look like a well-mannereddy like she usually did.


    "Janice, forget it. We can''t afford to offend them."


    "Yes, Janice, we''d better leave as soon as possible. If you don''t want to... Then, we''ll make a move


    first."


    "My morn asked me to go back for dinner tonight."


    "My dad wants to take me to a dinner party, so I have to go too."


    Soon, they all left with their excuses and Janice was the only one left.


    Janice''s face turned from pale to red because of humiliation and anger. The changes of her face


    were so quick that it attracted everyone''s attention.


    Vera''s face was in pain but as soon as she saw Janice''s look, she felt that Janice was the one who


    was going through the pain, so she startedughing her heart out.


    "What a joke. You recruited a bunch of unreliable people to seek trouble with us? Miss Lowell,


    although you are a client of ourpany, I suggest that you terminate the contract. Otherwise... It


    would be so embarrassing for you."


    Janice shouted, "How dare you!"


    "Don''t you understand humannguage?" Since both parties have been offended so openly, Vera


    simply just said what she wanted to say. "I have already said it like that, and you still ask me


    whether I dare or not? Do you not have a brain or do you only know how to say this sentence?


    Didn''t you see it for yourself whether I dare to or not? Why do you still need to ask?"


    Minerva couldn''t help butugh along. Vera seemed to be holding back her anger. She wanted to


    vent all the grievances that she had just suffered.


    No one could stop Vera when she was angry so Minerva simply stepped aside as a bystander to


    watch the show.


    Janice couldn''t fight back and this was the first time she had been humiliated in this way. Looking at


    how cool and indifferent Minerva was in the entire situation, it made her even angrier. She stomped


    towards Minerva.


    "It''s all because of you. If it wasn''t for you, I wouldn''t have been humiliated like this today and


    Maddox wouldn''t have been snatched away by you! Minerva!"


    She suddenly stomped towards her. She held something in her hand and she wanted to ssh it at


    Minerva.


    Vera''s expression changed dramatically and yelled, "Minerva, be careful. Get out of the way!"


    An unknown kind of liquid was sshed towards her; she couldn''t run in time. It happened too fast,


    so she could only turn around subconsciously.


    However, in the following second, a tall figure rushed over and stood in front of her to block it.

    "Ah!"


    However, it was Janice herself who shrieked.


    "Maddox!"


    Maddox? Minerva abruptly raised her head, only to discover that it was Maddox who had blocked


    everything for her. However, he seemed to be in pain and his forehead was drenched in sweat.


    Just now... The thing that Janice had in her hand, what was the liquid that she sshed?


    A terrible thought shed through her mind when she saw how much pain Maddox was in. She


    red at Janice and asked, "What did you ssh?"


    Her stare was terrifying as if she was going to swallow Janice as a whole. Janice was probably


    scared so she could only answer in a daze.


    "It''s, it''s sulfuric acid..."


    Minerva almost passed out when she heard her answer. She quickly calmed herself down and


    checked Maddox''s back. She took a look and found that his suit jacket had been burnt, exposing his


    skin and flesh.


    Minerva''s expression changed instantly. Without thinking, she said, "Quick, take off your suit."


    Something seemed to have crossed his mind too and he quickly took off his suit jacket. Then,


    Minerva pulled him into the lounge''s bathroom.


    Minerva used her hand to pick up the showerhead in the bathroom. She opened the water tap and


    sprayed Maddox''s back. She quickly took off Maddox''s white shirt and threw it on the ground. When


    she saw his burnt flesh, she felt extremely ufortable.


    She endured the difort and kept spraying cold water on Maddox''s back.


    Cold sweat broke out on Maddox''s forehead and he felt extreme pain in his back. How could he


    describe that kind of pain? It was almost bone-prating. He had a rough idea of what Janice


    sshed.


    Fortunately...


    Fortunately, he came.


    Vera was shocked by what happened just now and she was left in a daze. When she came back to


    her senses, she rushed to the bathroom and knocked on the door. "Minerva, how is it? Do you need


    me for anything?"


    Minerva, who was spraying water inside, heard Vera''s voice and said, "Quick, call the ambnce!"


    "Okay!" Vera took out her mobile phone quickly and she called the ambnce.


    On the other side, Janice stood there stupidly, with a look of incredulity on her face.


    How could this happen?


    She was obviously... going to ssh Minerva.


    But why did Maddox run out to block this blow for her?


    Thinking of this, Janice was so scared that she took a few steps back, and her face turned pale.


    It was over. She sshed sulfuric acid onto Maddox. Would he let her get away in the future?
