Chapter 679


    Minerva was extremely disappointed as he fell silent. She forced out a rueful smile.


    "Three days. Isn''t three days enough for you to think through it? Do you think these things are more


    important than us being together?"


    Maddox pursed his lips and stared at her.


    Minerva took out her phone in front of him and handed it to him, "Since you can''t even look past


    this, then let''s..."


    "What are you trying to say?"


    His chilly cold voice cut her off. She raised her head and saw how Maddox''s gaze had darkened.


    His face turned pale as he stared at her.


    Sheughed nonchntly and spoke in a rxed tone.


    "I think you know what I want to say. I didn''t reach out to you for the past few days because I


    wanted to give you space. Since three days is not enough for you to think things through, I think you


    can stop thinking about it anymore. First of all, I gave birth to Beanie. Even if you are his biological


    father, you can''t take him away from me."


    Maddox frowned when he heard that. Anger surged in his eyes.


    "Say that again?"


    This woman was trying to separate from him?


    His eyes were piercing and Minerva did not try to avoid him. She stared straight into his eyes.


    "Am I wrong? In the past five years, you didn''t fulfil any of your responsibilities as a father. You don''t


    have the right to take custody of him. You''re not even qualified to be his father!!"


    Maddox was speechless.


    The pupils in his dark eyes dted. After some time, he seemed tough out of anger, "You gave


    me three days of personal space, and now you''re here to tell me that you want to break it off? And


    you have already thought of how this ends?"


    Minerva did not reply. She bit her lower lip tightly.


    She wasn''t here to tell him that she wanted to break it off. She wanted to look for him and see how


    he would react, but now, she was extremely disappointed with how indifferent he was.


    For three days, there was not one call from him. It was as if he vanished. What about her?


    Was he the only one who felt wronged? What about her? With everything that happened, he was


    not the only one who was kept in the dark. It was only after she had Beanie that she knew the truth


    and slowly came to terms with it.


    Minerva''s eyes were already tearing up when she thought of this. She came back to her senses and


    turned her back to Maddox. She didn''t want to let him see her like this.

    "Yes, I have made up my mind. Since you can''t look past it, then forget it. I was fine without you for


    the past five years. I was okay not getting back together with you again, but if it wasn''t for... Ah..."


    Minerva did not finish her sentence when Maddox suddenly grabbed hold of her shoulders and


    pulled her over. He said viciously, "Have I been forcing this on you all this while?"


    He paused when he saw that pair of beautiful eyes filled with tears. He felt as if her tears were the


    pain umted over the past few days.


    "You..."


    Was she crying?


    Moreover, she looked like she had been wronged. Could it be that... as Sam had said, the one who


    was truly wronged was her?


    His heart skipped a beat. He held his breath for a moment. Before he could react, Minerva pushed


    him.


    "You were the one who forced me into it. You always appeared in front of me. I didn''t ask you to


    pursue me and go abroad. It was you who took me to the airport. You didn''t even ask whether I


    wanted to go. You said you could acknowledge the child without even discussing it with me, and you


    didn''t even care about me... You..."


    When she finished her sentence, she couldn''t hold her tears any longer and tears started pouring


    down.


    Surprisingly, Maddox reached out his hand to wipe the tears.


    Bang...


    Warm tears fell on his palm as if they were melting his heart.


    In fact, Minerva rarely cried. Even if she wanted to cry, her eyes would only redden in front of him,


    but now, she couldn''t hold back and actually cried in front of him. Her eyes were velveting red, and


    the tears were dripping down.


    His heart ached for her at the sight of this.


    He gritted his teeth and said helplessly, "Stop crying."


    It was not easy to regainposure once emotions started acting up. Minerva shed tears in front of


    him, and with his tactless words offort, her tears immediately started pouring even more.


    She didn''t want to cry in front of him, but now, she couldn''t hold it in, and tears poured. Would this


    make her seem like she was very reluctant to let him go?


    However, she couldn''t control her emotions.


    She was both shocked and annoyed. She could only try her best to avoid his gaze and she tried to


    push him away.


    However, Maddox reacted faster. Before she could escape, he lowered his head and kissed her.


    Minerva stared at him with tears in her eyes, not knowing what to do.


    He did not kiss her lips. His cold thin lipsnded on her cheeks, and he tenderly kissed away the


    tears on her face.


    She stood on the spot, motionless.


    What was going on with this person?


    He didn''t care about her anymore, but when he saw her crying, he actually kissed her?


    She was a little nervous and wanted to push him away. However, he seemed to know what she was


    about to do. He grabbed her hands and ced them on his chest.


    Thump!


    Minerva could feel his heartbeat.


    Thump! Thump!


    She could feel his heartbeat, one after the other.


    She didn''t understand what Maddox was trying to do. His thin lips suddenly moved to the corner of


    her eyes. She was so startled that she quickly closed her eyes.


    He gently kissed her eyes. Simultaneously, he also held her cheek with his hand and wiped away


    the tears on her cheek with his thumb.


    It took him a long time before he pulled back, pressing against her forehead and looking at her with


    deep eyes.


    "Even if I was angry over the past three days, I never thought of breaking up. You actually brought


    up the matter of breaking up with me the moment you came. Minerva, you''re really deliberate."


    She blinked her eyes nervously under his deep gaze, "Since you''re so determined to break up with


    me, let me give it to you."


    Hearing this, his eyes darkened a little and then he squinted his eyes.


    "I''m determined to break up with you?"


    "Isn''t it? If I hadn''te to look for you, would you havee to look for me?"


    Perhaps it was because of his kiss, but she forgot that she was crying. She only thought about


    reasoning with him.


    "Who said I wouldn''t go and look for you?"


    "Then why didn''t you stop when I called you earlier?"


    When it came to this, he fell silent.


    Could he actually say that he was missing her too much and thought that he was hallucinating when


    he heard her voice?


    "As you said, I''m the one always looking for you. How would I know you would actuallye and


    look for me?"
