Chapter 489
"No." Minerva shook her head and said, "It wasn''t me who got injured."
Kelly''s eyes widened in bewilderment. "I heard Vera say that you were not injured, but I also heard
that Janice had sshed sulfuric acid. That woman is really too scary. We can never let this type of
person be our client in the future."
"Client?" Minerva gently said the word. She then smiled faintly and said, "Not anymore. Even if she
wants to be our client in the future, she would never stand a chance."
She had used sulfuric acid to intentionally cause harm. Although it didn''t hurt her, she did hurt
Maddox.
Based on Maddox''s character, how could he not make things difficult for Janice? Moreover, even if
Maddox didn''t make things difficult for her, Minerva wouldn''t have let Janice off the hook anyways.
She felt a surge of anger when she thought of how Maddox''s back had been injured. That thought
had somehow started a rage in her heart.
"What do you mean by that? Have youe up with a solution?"
"She injured a person intentionally so she has to bear the consequences. I don''t need to do
anything to her; someone else will." After Minerva finished speaking, she suddenly felt a dull pain
between her eyebrows. She stretched out her hand and pinched the space between her eyebrows
to try to stop the pain.
Kelly saw this and whispered, "You didn''t sleep wellst night, did you? I have some ointment here.
Put some on your forehead and you might feel better.''1
After that, Kelly opened her bag, took out a bottle of ointment and handed it to Minerva.
Minerva looked at the bottle of ointment and frowned subconsciously.
She... didn''t quite like the smell of the medicinal ointment.
Therefore, she did not reach out to take it. She just smiled at Kelly and said, "Thank you but I''m
fine. I''ll just rest for a while."
Kelly stared at her for a while and suddenly asked, "You don''t like the smell, do you? Don''t worry. I
didn''t like it at first as well but it does really help! Come, I''ll help you apply it." After saying this, Kelly
directly opened the lid and then she went forward to apply it on Minerva''s forehead for her.
Minerva was a little annoyed by her behavior because she was not that close with Kelly, but she
actually...
However, even though Minerva was annoyed, she did not show it on her face. She knew that Kelly
was just concerned about her. If she showed even the slightest impatience at that moment, she
knew that it could really hurt her feelings.
When Kelly stepped back, she also smiled at her. "Just wait and see. You will feel better after a
while."
Minerva also smiled at her and said, "Thank you." Feeling a little embarrassed, Kelly turned her face
away and said haughtily, "I... I was not caring for you. I was just... just worried that your mind is not
working well enough at the moment to handle this matter properly."
At this time, the door of the elevator opened at the sound of the ring, and Kelly rushed out.
Minerva kept quiet.
When she returned to the office, Vera happened to be handling things in front of her desk. Seeing
here back, she immediately stood up. "My God, I thought you were going to stay in the hospital
for 24 hours. It turns out you do know that you have toe back, huh?"
Upon hearing her teasing, Minerva couldn''t help but re at her. "What? You don''t even feel sorry
for me being at the hospital for the past 24 hours? You are evenughing at me despite it?"
"How could I?" Vera smiled and said, "You stayed at the hospital but it was not you who was in pain
so why should I feel sorry for you?"
"Oh, just because I won''t feel any pain, I wouldn''t feel tired?" Minerva pinched her neck and
shoulders. Last night, because she was sleeping in the chair all night, she felt sore all over her
body. Even now, her neck area was still ufortable.
"Fine, I am just joking with you. If I don''t feel sorry for you, I won''t be taking care of your work in the
office at this time. You can go back today. Leave everything to me. Have a good rest. I know you will
definitely go back to the hospital at night."
Minerva kept quiet.
Minerva thought, "Why does it feel like I''ve fallen into a trap?" She ced her hand into her pocket
and narrowed her eyes as she studied Vera.
Vera smiled and said, "What? Did I say something wrongly? I am trying to say that since someone
has gotten injured so badly because of you, when will you agree to be with that someone again..."
"Vera!"
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Minerva''s sharp voice.
Vera stuck out her tongue and did not continue any further.
After a long time, she said again, "Go, I will take care of the things here. I will also take care of
Beanie as well. You can go back and rest first. I have already prepared the nkets for youst
night in the bedroom. You can go and directly take a shower before going to sleep." After saying
that, Vera walked over to give her the key. "This is the key installed from before. I haven''t given it to
you yet. You can save one for yourself. Then I will send you a WhatsApp message for the
password. Remember to delete it after you finish reading it."
Minerva nodded. "Okay, have the policee over today?"
"No. It''s still too early, but they did call Mr. Hanoverst night. I don''t know what they said exactly,
but... I believe that Ms. Lowell will get exactly what she deserves."
Minerva stayed quiet.
"Okay, then I''ll go back to freshen up and rest for a while. Call me if there''s anything."
"Don''t worry."
Hence, after Minerva finished giving her instructions, she left thepany. Initially, she wanted to
return to the Hanover house. However, since she had her own house now and because Quill might
still be upset at her, she decided to go straight back to her new house instead.
It was very quiet in the new house. There were no servants so she was the only one in the empty
house.
Minerva went upstairs and found her room. She opened the closet, took out a pair of pajamas, and
then went into the bathroom to take a bath.
After taking a hot bath, she felt that the pain in her body had subsided a lot. While she was wiping
her hair dry with a towel, she saw her mobile phone vibrating.
Looking at the caller ID, it was Helen.
Why was this girl calling her?
Thinking of this, Minerva answered the phone and said, "Hello?"
"Ah, my goddess, you have finally answered my call!" Helen''s voice sounded very anxious.
Minerva frowned a little but did not stop wiping her hair. She asked, "What''s the matter?"
Helen said in a particrly anxious tone, "I know what Janice did. You''re not hurt, are you?"
"No, I''m not." Minerva denied it directly.
Hearing this, Helen finally breathed a sigh of relief but soon she became nervous again.
"I called my cousin and she didn''t pick up the phone at all. I told you that day that she was not a
good person and I did tell you to be careful around her."
"Yes, I know."
Helen continued to exin, "I''m sorry. I didn''t expect there would be such a grudge between you
and her. I am to be med for this incident. If only I hadn''t introduced her to you as a client..."
Upon hearing this, Minerva thought about what had happened before and said softly, "It''s none of
your business. Even without you, as long as she dated Maddox, she would have eventuallye to
me one day anyways."
