Chapter 704


    Minerva felt that she was going to shrink into the floor.


    If she could dig a hole in the ground and hide in it, she would have done so.


    Now, she didn''t dare to make a sound. She just sat there with her hat low, trying to be as still as


    possible.


    She didn''t know why, but the person sitting beside her suddenly stood up. She didn''t know what


    happened, but the person quickly sat back down. Only then did Minerva rx.


    Because she kept her head down all the time, she didn''t know what was going on. By estimation,


    Maddox should have passed by her by this time.


    Hence, she quietly raised her head and wanted to observe her surroundings. However, she


    unexpectedly met with a pair of deep, ice-cold eyes.


    They looked into each other''s eyes.


    Silence...


    Minerva''s pupils dted a little. Then, she came to her senses and gently lowered her head. She


    continued to curl up there as if she hadn''t seen anything.


    Maddox, who was seated beside her, could not help but sneer when he saw this.


    "You have the guts to board the ne, but you don''t dare to look at me?"


    She was at a loss for words.


    His voice was so sharp that it made her scalp tingle. Minerva bit her lower lip and once again slowly


    raised her head.


    "I, I said I would go with you, but you didn''t agree, so I had to...e by myself."


    Maddox''s lips curled up into a cold smile. "Sneaking into the ne? You even bought an economy


    seat?"


    Minerva was speechless.


    The people around stared at them. It seemed that someone recognized that they were the two


    people on the posters all over North City. Someone even took out her phone to secretly take a


    picture of them.


    Minerva''s expression changed slightly when she saw this. She quickly lowered her head and threw


    herself into his embrace.


    She suddenly threw herself into his arms, leaving Maddox dazed for a moment. However, he quickly


    caught a glimpse of the camera out of the corner of his eyes.


    He narrowed his eyes and looked at thedy fiercely.


    His aura was already strong, and at this moment, there was even a murderous intent in his gaze.


    The woman''s hand immediately went weak, and her phone fell to the ground. She panicked and


    lowered her head to look for her phone.


    Maddox turned around and looked at the little woman who was hiding in his arms. He could not help


    but ridicule her.


    "You weren''t scared to sneak into the ne, but now you are scared of this?"


    She still had her head lowered. She asked in a low voice, "Are they still taking pictures?" "Look for


    yourself?"


    Only then did she raise her head to look at the woman. When she realized that the woman was only


    bending down to look for her phone, she heaved a sigh of relief and covered her chest.


    She then looked at his gloomy face. "Since I''m already here, you won''t pull me off the ne, will


    you?"


    Maddox was stupefied.


    "Wow, you actually reminded me of such a good idea."


    After speaking, he grabbed Minerva''s slender and fair wrist. She was taken aback and widened her


    eyes in an attempt to pull her hand back.


    "Are you afraid now? Why weren''t you afraid when you threatened me earlier?" He got closer to her,


    and his gaze was sharp. The aura lingering around him had be more and more powerful.


    She was dumbfounded.


    She bit her lower lip and simply shut her eyes.


    "Well, then pull me off. You will have to get off the ne, too. If you won''t allow me to go together,


    then no one is going."


    She acted as if she had nothing to lose. Minerva thought that if Maddox pulled her off the ne,


    then she would hold him tightly and would not let him go and board the ne either.


    When the time came, neither of them would be able to board the ne.


    However, after some time there didn''t seem to be any movement.


    She opened her eyes again. She saw the helpless look in his eyes. He was still clenching her wrist,


    but his grip was much lighter.


    He sighed when he saw that she was in such a bad mood.


    "Why did you suddenly be so childish? Recently... You like to make a fuss."


    Upon hearing his words, Minerva recalled her recent behavior. It really seemed...


    She did not only be naughty, but alsozy and gluttonous. Everyday, she only wanted to sleep


    and didn''t even want to work.


    What was wrong with her?


    Could it be... because she felt that Maddox would be able to feed her when she married him? Was


    that the reason why she becamezy?


    At the thought of this, Minerva''s face instantly turned sour. She did not want to continue being azy


    person.


    Of course, she had to deny it in front of him. She pulled back her hand and gritted her teeth. "Who


    wants to make a fuss? I''m just worried about you, and I want to stay by your side, but you don''t


    allow me to. It''s just a flight, and you insisted so hard not to let me board it. Who''s the one making


    the fuss?"


    After saying that, she turned her head and looked out of the window, no longer looking at him.


    "Well, stop messing around. Do you know how much I''m worried about you? If you want to go, then


    go. But when you arrive at the ce, you are not allowed to run around."


    Did he agree? Minerva stared at him with a little hesitation before nodding her head. "Fine!"


    The two of them had reached a consensus. She would definitely not run around. It was just that she


    felt that her eyelids were twitching so much that she was worried about Maddox being alone. That


    was why she wanted to stay by his side. She wanted to make sure that he was safe until the


    wedding was finally over.


    The ne flew for a long time, and it didn''t take long for her to feel drowsy again. While she was


    sleeping in her seat, her head was flopping around. Seeing this, Maddox could only grab her and


    lean her against his shoulder.


    By the time they arrived, it was already deep into the night.


    He woke her up, and she drowsily moved forward while hanging onto him. He then carried her into


    his car and brought her to his room. She slept all the way there. He personally carried her into her


    room after arriving.


    When her head touched the soft pillow, she directly reached out to hold the quilt and then fell asleep


    again.


    Upon seeing this, he didn''t ask her to take a shower. Looking at Minerva in front of him, he felt a


    little strange.


    Recently... She seemed to be very drowsy.


    She slept on the ne, in the car, and she went straight back to sleep when they reached the


    room?


    However, he did not think too much about it after that. He thought that she was sleep-deprived


    because she was too worried about himself.

    Minerva had a nightmare again. When she woke up, her heart was thumping, and her eyelids


    twitched violently. When she woke up, she subconsciously reached out to touch the side, only to


    find no one beside her.


    Therefore she had to get up, only to find that she was in a ce she was not familiar with. She


    recalled what happened the night before and knew that this was the room that Maddox brought her


    to.


    Her phone vibrated. Minerva took out her phone and found that Vera had sent her a video call.


    She answered with a messy heap of hair on her face.


    "F*ck, Minerva... Where have you been? Why was Beanie sent home so early in the


    morning?"
