Chapter 572


    Bang!


    What she did was out of Maddox''s expectation, and the bowl of soup in his hand fell to the ground.


    The sound of porcin hitting the ground shook Minerva''s heart. At the same time, it also smashed


    Minerva''s heart.


    She turned her back towards Maddox and shouted again.


    "I don''t need you to pretend to be like that. I can take care of myself when I''m sick. It''s none of your


    business even if I die of sickness. I don''t need you to feed me soup. I don''t need anything from


    you!"


    Silence greeted her.


    Minerva knew that Maddox was probably seriously hurt by her.


    Although she was angry and she shouted, tears flowed down her cheeks and she couldn''t stop


    them.

    She didn''t want Maddox to please her.


    Maddox was the total opposite of how he used to be. He was a favored son who ran the world


    business and he never pleased anyone.


    She didn''t want to see him like that.


    Minerva wiped the tears with the back of her hand andid back down with her back facing Maddox.


    She then pulled the quilt over herself, trying to shut out all the sounds.


    Silence filled the room for a long time before a sound could be heard.


    It was the sound of porcin fragments colliding with each other. The sound was very faint, but it


    was enough to be heard clearly in the quiet room.


    Was Maddox cleaning up the mess she caused? Minerva''s eyes filled with tears again and she bit


    her lower lip tightly.


    Why did he do that? Why?


    She had already treated him like that. Why didn''t he just turn around and leave already?


    Why did he choose to stay on and be treated in such a way?


    Minerva closed her eyes and tried her best to ignore the sounds. Finally, when the room became


    quiet again, Minerva quietly poked her head out from underneath the quilt.


    She took a deep breath, sat up, and found that the floor had been cleaned.


    Treating Maddox like that didn''t make her happy at all. On the contrary, she felt her heart tighten.


    However, she could never bring herself to smile in front of Maddox.


    It was hard for her either way.


    She really hoped that Maddox wouldn''t appear in front of her again.


    This was due to the fact that every time he showed up, her mind would be very confused.


    She didn''t know how to make a choice at all.


    Minerva quietly got up and went into the bathroom to change her clothes. When she came out, she


    bumped into Maddox bringing in a new bowl. This time, however, he did not approach her. He said


    solemnly, "Since you don''t want to see me, I''ll take my leave first. I brought another bowl for you.


    Remember to drink the soupter."


    Minerva fell silent.


    She did not respond to his words. Instead, she turned her head away, not even giving him a nce.


    Then, there was the sound of footsteps. Maddox was leaving.


    Finally, Minerva couldn''t hold it in any longer. She secretly turned her head to look at his back.


    His back was rather straight, but right then, it gave off a deste and lonely feeling, making one feel


    incredibly ufortable.


    Upon hearing the sound of the door closing, Minerva finally moved. She then began to walk to the


    table.


    The soup was kept warm in the pot. Maddox had brought it up to her room for her convenience.


    He also brought another bowl. Minerva sat down and filled up the bowl for herself. Finally, she took


    a mouthful and drank it.


    The soup had a light fragrance. Minerva drank in silence and tears streamed down her face once


    again.


    In the end, she could not help but cry bitterly.


    B*stard!


    That b*stard Maddox, why can''t he just turn around and leave?


    Why did he do so many things for her...


    Even though she had clearly said that she wouldn''t ept him.


    Why...


    After Maddox left, he went back to the house opposite Minerva''s. The first thing he did when he


    returned to the house was to turn on the screen and sit there to observe.


    After a while, he suddenly felt a little difort in his stomach. Maddox covered his stomach with


    his hand and pursed his thin lips tightly.


    After a moment, heughed at himself and fell back on the sofa.


    "Crazy, I must be crazy," he said to himself.


    In the evening, Minerva''s dizziness subsided. She opened the door and was about to go down and


    take a walk.


    Initially, after the incident the night before, she had no intention of going out but... Right then, the


    sun was still up, and she thought she would be safe.


    Moreover, it was not a good idea to sit still and wait for death either.


    However, when Minerva went out to wait for the elevator, she suddenly heard someone opening the


    door on the other end of the corridor.


    She was a little confused. It seemed that she had never seen her neighbor ever since she moved


    there for so long. She thought that there was no one living inside. Right then, when she thought


    about it, she and Vera would always go out early ande backte everyday. Her neighbor''s


    schedule might have been different from theirs so it was normal that they didn''t meet each other.


    Thinking of that, Minerva shook her head slightly and the elevator just happened to rise to her floor.


    She tidied up her hair and prepared to enter.


    Ding...


    When the elevator doors opened, Minerva''s feet had just moved when someone caught hold of her


    wrist.


    "You have recovered from fever and you''re going out already?"


    A cold voice rang in her ears. Minerva turned her head around in astonishment. She looked at the


    man who had appeared in front of her in disbelief.


    "You, why are you here?" She asked.


    Minerva was certainly surprised to see the handsome Maddox. After the initial shock, she looked at


    the opposite door behind her and her lips moved, "You... live here?"


    If he wasn''t living across from her house, how could he have appeared out of nowhere?


    However, if he was living on the opposite side, why hadn''t she seen him in such a long time?


    Was it a coincidence, or did he arrange it in advance?


    As if he was answering her questions, Maddox exined calmly, "I moved over after that incident


    happened."


    Minerva fell silent.


    She widened her eyes, still unable to believe what she had just heard.


    Her face changed and she asked, "Then how did you know I was going to go out?"


    The door was clearly closed, wasn''t it?


    Did he stand by the door and listen to the movements? It was possible, but it was too weird.


    Besides, Maddox was very smart so he wouldn''t do that.


    Then... How did he know that she had gone out? There was only one possibility left.


    Minerva''s eyes searched all over the ce, at her own house door, and at the opposite house''s


    door.


    Maddox looked at her movements as he stuffed one of his hands into his pocket and then leaned


    against the wall.


    Of course, he knew what she was looking for, but he wasn''t going to tell her.


    It was so that she wouldn''t try to rebel against him and also, it would be hard for him to protect her if


    she rebelled.


    "You don''t have to look for it. I don''t have any cameras. I know that you came out just because our


    hearts are linked."


    Upon hearing that, Han Minerva could not help but sneer, "Do you think I''m a fool?"
