Chapter 667
Minerva paused as she put on her clothes. Then, she raised her head to stare at Maddox.
He looked dead serious and didn''t seem like he was joking around. He really wanted to stay.
He wasn''t going to leave until he saw his son.
Vera was back. Would Maddox coincidentally meet Beanie? Her heart began to palpitate as she
thought about it. She buttoned up her clothes and frantically straightened her messy ck hair.
Then, she walked up to Maddox.
"Put on your clothes. Let me probe him a little. You go back to your house and wait for me."
After that, she pushed him out of the door without waiting for his reply.
He could not help but furrow his brows when he saw this. He said as he walked out, "What do you
n to do?"
"Are you afraid that he wouldn''t acknowledge you?"
She had already pushed him to the door.
She opened the door and shoved him out.
"Hurry up and go downstairs."
She urged him. Maddox was leaning against the stairs. His tall figure stood in ce as if he wanted
to challenge her patience.
"I''ve said that I''m not leaving, and you are still insisting that I leave. Are you going to push me down
those stairs?"
"Are you crazy?" Minerva uttered.
She was so furious that she gritted her teeth. She still felt uneasy. If it wasn''t for fear, she wouldn''t
have gotten up.
He stared at her with a pair of pitch- ck eyes. His stare was inexplicable, yet it seemed it was
nothing.
"Minerva, I''m not crazy."
After some time, she heard his calmed andposed voice.
"I said I want to be your child''s father when we were on our way to the airport. Today... It''s time to
walk the talk."
"No matter what you do now, you can''t stop me."
She froze in ce. Her red and swollen lips parted slightly but she was speechless.

She was a little helpless. Couldn''t there be anything that could stop him?
She hid Beanie from him for so long. Now, Maddox was going to be his father. How was Maddox
going to react?
Minerva bit her lower lip and closed her eyes. Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she said in a
low voice, "Follow me into the room and tidy your clothes up."
Knowing that she had given up, he followed her into the room.
After entering the room, Maddox tidied up his clothes. Minerva took out an iron and said to him,
"Your shirt is creased. Take it off."
Without second thought, he took off his shirt and handed it to her.
She ironed his shirt for him.
Whether it was a shirt or coat, Maddox''s clothes were so neat that there were no wrinkles on them
every time she saw him. But since they just... After that, his shirt was crumpled.
Perhaps she was a little guilty. Or perhaps, she wanted him to have a better first impression. As
such, she had to help him iron his shirt.
Minerva was ironing his shirt very attentively. Under the light, she bent over. A few strands of hair
hung down and obscured her eyes, making her look even gentler.
Seeing her like this, Maddox felt his heart softened.
After ironing his shirt, she handed the shirt to him and let him wear it, then tied his tie for him.
She was as gentle as a dove as she did it.
He had been staring at her quietly, and there was a touch of hesitation in that pair of dark eyes.
When she was halfway through the tie, he suddenly couldn''t help but lean over and hug her.
"What are you doing?" Minerva was dumbfounded. When she came back to her senses, she
wanted to push him away, ''Tve tried so hard to iron your clothes. Don''t make them creased again."
Maddox backed away.
"I won''t let you down."
"What?"
"From now on, I will definitely take good care of you and your son. I will treat you as the most
important people in the world."
Minerva was a little surprised. What kind of oath was he suddenly making?
"Just because I ironed your shirt for you? You''re so touched?"
He was speechless.
He pinched her cheek and said helplessly, "Do you know how to be romantic? Are you trying to ruin
the mood?"
"You''d better save what you have to say until you meet Beanie. I hope you won''t be too surprised."
She took a step back once she was done with the tie and tidied herself up.
Ten minutester, Minerva opened the door and brought him downstairs.
"Wait here, I''ll... go and see where Beanie is."
He should be with Vera in the room.
Thinking of this, Minerva went upstairs and nned to ask Beanie toe down.
She opened the door and saw that Vera had a facial mask on, "Hmm? Minerva?"
Minerva looked around but saw no Beanie. She asked, "Where is he?"
"He?" Vera blinked her eyes and asked, "Who?"
"Beanie, didn''t you bring him back?"
Vera thought for a moment and nodded, "I brought him back. He just took a shower and went
downstairs. Didn''t you see him?"
"He went downstairs?"
From the look on her face, Vera slowly sensed that something was wrong. "What''s wrong? You
didn''t see him downstairs? I remembered that he said something about going to the kitchen to wash
some fruit... to serve the guests..."
Downstairs.
Beanie was looking in the refrigerator for a long time and finally washed a te of fruits. When the
little guy carried the te out, he happened to see a figure in the living room.
Maddox sat on the sofa. His eyes and expression were a little anxious.
He was... just meeting with a child. Why was he so nervous?
No matter how special the kid was, he was just a five-year-old. Why would an adult be afraid of a
child?
For the first time, Maddox felt very helpless.
What should he say to him?
How should he address him?
Minerva mentioned that his name was Beanie?
Beanie? It sounded... like a lovely name.
Thinking about it, Maddox suddenly stood up. He seemed a little anxious. He frowned and thought
that he was too impatient. Thus, he sat back down again.
He tapped the table with his fingertips, but the rhythm was sporadic. His dark gaze was constantly
shifting. Finally, he took out his phone and sought help from his friends through Facebook.
"First time meeting a child. How should I address him?"
Perhaps it was gettingte. No one replied to him.
He was very agitated and had no mood to wait anymore. He quickly deleted the message, switched
off his phone and put the phone back into his pocket.
Why hadn''t Minervae down yet?
Could it be that... she had taken him away again?
His expression changed slightly at the thought of it. He got up and was about to go upstairs to look
for her.
He turned around and caught a glimpse of Beanie standing there with a te of fruits. He was so
small that he was about knee height.
Maddox felt as if he had been struck by lightning and froze in ce with just a nce.
