Chapter 606
Downstairs.
Maddox was enjoying his meal slowly. His movements were elegant and charming. At first nce,
one could tell that he was a nobleman who had received a good education. There was a faint smile
on his lips when he was eating. He was satisfied when he thought of how Minerva was eating the
vitamins at that moment.

Minerva let her guard down and was no longer thinking about the contraceptive pill. If she continued
eating the vitamins, she would be pregnant with his child soon.
Humph, so what if she had a child with her ex-husband? He would make sure that all of her
remaining children were his.
As Maddox imagined how his own children would call him dad in the future, the smile on his face
deepened.
He wanted to own Minerva for the rest of her life.
In the afternoon, Maddox suggested taking her to the supermarket. At first, Minerva refused but
after recalling that she had been lying on the bed for two days, she felt that it was better to go out
for a walk. Otherwise, she might not be able to get up if she went on like this.
Good-looking couples were always appealing, let alone a couple like Minerva and Maddox. As they
walked to the supermarket, they attracted many people''s attention along the way. After they arrived
there, they ran into Brock.
This time, there was another person beside him. It was a woman with delicate features and a
beautiful appearance.
However, this woman looked like a middle-aged woman. Although she was no longer young, she
still managed to maintain her charm. Standing next to the plump Brock, they seemed to be a good
match.
"Nice to see you and your husband here."
Brock was always enthusiastic whenever he saw Minerva. After greeting her, he looked at Maddox
and smiled at him. However, Maddox didn''t seem to want to acknowledge him.
Hence, the woman next to Brock reached out and gave him a gentle pinch. "What are you doing?
Who are you greeting?"
"Honey, this is the young couple I met in the lift that I told you about."
The woman looked at Minerva and Maddox in confusion.
"The young couple from the same neighborhood and elevator?"
"That''s right. She''s the girl from the same elevator. This is... my, my wife, Betty."
Brock''s cheeks started blushing when he was introducing his wife. He seemed embarrassed as he
looked at Betty. She red at him and asked, "Why are you stuttering?"
Brock was flushed as he rubbed his hands nervously without saying anything.
Minerva felt a little awkward as she watched this scene unfold before her eyes. She nced at the
man beside her subconsciously. She probably never experienced how Brock was with his wife in
front of Maddox.
"Miss, don''t worry about him. He''s not a smooth talker. When I first got together with him, his silly
mouth couldn''t please me at all. If he wasn''t obedient, I wouldn''t be with him."
Betty was very outgoing. She went up to Minerva and grabbed her hand. "What do you want to buy
here? Let''s go together since we''ve also just arrived."
Minerva had been staying in the room for the past two days and had not spoken to anyone else.
When she heard Betty''s invitation, she was a little tempted. However, she couldn''t help but nce
at Maddox beside her. He wouldn''t agree, would he? After their previous incident, who knew what
awaited them in the supermarket?
Speaking of this, Minerva remembered that she had forgotten to ask him who was following her that
day.
Did he find anything after such a long time? Or had he already found out, but he didn''t tell her? It
seemed that she had to find time to ask about it.
Probably because the request in her heart had been heard, Maddox unexpectedly said with great
mercy, "Let''s go in together."
Brock was overjoyed. After all, he thought that the cold- faced Maddox would reject the invitation
instantly. Who knew that he would actually agree? What was happening?
Minerva was delighted but also a little suspicious. She stared at Maddox asking, "Are you really
okay with this?"
His thin lips moved and he was about to say something when Betty grabbed Minerva''s hand. She
then pulled Minerva to her side and instructed, "Miss, you can''t do this. How can you ask him for his
opinion on everything? You can do whatever you want. If he doesn''t like it, you two should break
up."
As soon as she finished her words, a cold and murderous gaze swept over her. Betty could feel it
but she wasn''t afraid. Instead, she raised her lips and said with a smile, "You see, he''s so
possessive. He''s angry because of my casual remark. If you really break up with him, he''ll probably
turn the world upside down."
Minerva didn''t know if he would turn the world upside down. However, she knew that if she was to
be separated from Maddox, he would likely continue to pester her. In fact, he would use extreme
methods to keep her by his side.
"As an elder, let me remind you. You shouldn''t put up with everything he does or you will be bullied.
Look at me now, he won''t dare to disobey me. He listens to everything I say."
"You should control him dominantly. Let''s walk in front of them. I''ll teach you some tricks."
Minerva was slightly embarrassed but Betty was overly enthusiastic. She held Minerva''s hand and
kept moving forward so she had no choice but to follow her.
Brock walked to Maddox''s side with a grin. "Let''s hurry up and follow them?"
Maddox looked at him coldly and said, "Is this how you live your life?"
Brock was stunned for a while before reacting. What was Maddox referring to? He reached out and
scratched his head. There seemed to be a conflicted expression on his face. However, he quickly
rxed. A simple and honest smile appeared on his face.
"It doesn''t matter. We are already husband and wife. It''s the same even if you take a step backward
or forward. Anyway, even if she wins, I''m fine with that. I am her husband, so naturally, I will give in
to her."
Maddox agreed with thetter sentence. He felt that he could give in to Minerva but he could not
bear that she did not want to give birth to his child. Neither could he tolerate her being in touch with
other men.
"I know you must think of me as a coward, but I feel happy. That''s enough."
Brock was still talking. Maddox looked away and said coldly, "You talk too much!"
Brock caught up with him, stared at him, and said, "Looking at the way you two acted, you''ve
encountered difficulties, haven''t you?"
Maddox frowned and said unhappily, "It''s none of your business!"
"How can it have nothing to do with me? Aren''t we neighbors? We even take the same elevator. It''s
fate that we have met several times. There''s something wrong with you and
your wife. Do you want me to share a few tricks with you?"
Tricks? Maddox sneered. "What''s that?"
Did he even need it?
