Chapter 777


    She did not know if it was because it was too cold outside, or perhaps she had starved too much.


    After hugging Maddox''s neck tightly, they leaned closely against each other.


    Despite being separated byyers of clothes, she could still feel that his temperature was warm


    compared to her.


    When Sebastian lifted her up, he realized that she was as light as a feather. Her waist was so thin


    that he could break it easily with one hand. Her body was also as cold as ice.


    He frowned. Without bothering about the rest, he turned around and left the room with her in his


    arms.


    The people in the room looked at each other.


    Someone couldn''t help but reach out and rub their eyes.


    "I didn''t see wrongly, did I? The person who appeared here a moment ago, was he really


    Sebastian?"


    "F*ck, why is that woman so lucky ?"


    As for the waiter whom Geoffrey called, he had already brought in dozens of bottles of wine.

    Although he didn''t know what had happened, he was very attentive since the bar was earning


    money, and he could get hismission.


    When the delivery was almost done, he ran up to Geoffrey.


    "Sir, the wine delivery is almost done. What do you think?"


    Geoffrey took out a bank card from his bag and handed it over. "Use the card, and then get some


    people to hold the guy over there. Make him drink all the wine," he ordered.


    The waiter took the bank card and froze, "What?"


    Geoffrey was a little impatient.


    "What are you talking about? Can''t you do it?" He growled impatiently.


    The waiter immediately answered, "No, I mean if we force him to drink all the wine, will there be an


    ident?"


    Well, if any ident happened, wouldn''t it be troublesome?


    Geoffrey thought for a moment and responded, "How about this... make him drink as long as he


    doesn''t die. Doesn''t he like to invite others to drink?"


    The foreigner, Uriah, looked at him, gnashing his teeth. "Geoffrey, you''re not going to f*cking help


    me?"


    Geoffrey took a step back. "What should I help you with? Didn''t I tell you in advance that she was


    Sebastian''s woman? Didn''t I tell you not to y with fire? You turned a deaf ear to me. You have


    offended Sebastian. If you don''t suffer today, you''ll be suffering in the future.


    When Uriah heard this, he turned mournful.


    That''s right...


    Sebastian was only making him drink that day. Even if he was forced to drink to urinary


    incontinence, it was still considered a small matter. However, if he did not suffer that day, then...


    ording to Sebastian''s personality, the fact that he hit him that day showed the weight of that


    woman in his heart. When he thought about what would happen in the future, he was extremely


    regretful about what he did...


    Minerva was carried out of the room.


    She leaned in Maddox''s warm embrace, smelling his scent. It was so familiar and it made her heart


    satisfied.


    Could this be considered a blessing in disguise?


    At first, she thought that she would not be able to


    see him.


    She didn''t expect that she could meet him and be carried by him.


    The hug after a month or so was like a lifetime ago.


    She closed her eyes and unconsciously tightened her grip and leaned against him. She was clingy


    to him.


    Maddox had also noticed it.


    This woman had been holding him since he picked her up. They were so close that they seemed


    like a couple. Inch by inch, she still kept leaning towards his body.


    He could see that her eyshes were still trembling when he lowered his head.


    However, he didn''t hate it at all...


    He, who was suffering from mysophobia, actually felt that this woman should stay in his arms


    obediently.


    This feeling of her curled up in his arms, small, well-behaved, and weak made his heart tremble.


    He did not know what happened to him, but his pace was getting faster.


    She was carried to the driver''s seat by him. When Maddox wanted to let go of her, she still clung to


    his neck


    Maddox was speechless.


    He tried to retreat.


    She would not let go, as if she had forgotten what day it was.


    He narrowed his eyes and grabbed her wrist with hisrge hands. "HI leave you here if you don''t let


    go now."


    She finally came back to her senses after the cold warning rang out overhead. She reluctantly


    withdrew her hand.


    He reminded her after getting into his seat.


    "Your seat belt."


    She was stunned for a moment and she quietly fastened her seatbelt.


    She looked down at her arm, her heartmenting.


    This road was too short, wasn''t it? It felt like they had just hugged for a while.


    If only she could hold him a little longer.


    When the car was on the road, the surrounding lights gradually disappeared. Instead, they were


    reced by the constantly retreating street view.


    Compared to the noise in the bar a moment ago, the car was extraordinarily quiet, and there were


    no strange smells.


    "Are you an idiot? "


    Maddox''s questioning rang in the car unexpectedly.


    She looked at him doubtfully, as if she didn''t understand what he meant.


    He sneered, "Was it Geoffrey who brought you here?"


    She nodded.


    "Why didn''t you refuse him? Why did you follow others so casually? Why won''t you think twice


    before going?"


    She was stunned by Maddox''s series of questions as she didn''t expect him to speak so harshly. For


    a moment, she felt a little ashamed and resentful. "I''m not following anyone blindly. It''s just that he


    said that you would be there. That''s why I..."


    Speaking of this, she suddenly stopped talking. She realized that she had exposed something.


    There was a red light just in time. Maddox stopped the car and looked at her.


    "You followed because you thought I''ll be there? And you''re telling me that you didn''t enter the


    company because of me?" He asked.


    She replied, "Who told you that I would go as soon as I heard you''ll be there? I''m just worried that


    you''ll have some order for me, and I''m going because of fear of dying."


    However, he did not move his gaze away from her after what she said. He looked at her straight in


    the eyes.


    His look was as straightforward as it could be, as if to say, "Okay, go ahead and lie. I''ll just listen


    quietly."


    She was annoyed. She bit her lower lip and tried to defend herself.


    "I''m telling the truth. After all, I worked overtime tonight. I thought there might still be work, so..."


    "Heh."


    His thin lips curled up and he snorted.


    "You''re a stubborn woman," hemented.


    This woman was not only strange, but she was also a double-dealer.


    The car quietened down. After a while, Maddox asked for her address. After Minerva told him it, the


    two of them fell into silence again.


    It was veryte. There were no cars on the road, so the car soon arrived at her house.


    The main door was dark, and there was no light.


    "Thank you for sending me back." She thanked him. She unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the


    car. She felt a little reluctant to leave and wanted to stay with him a little longer. However, his face


    was taut. It was obvious that he didn''t want to talk to her anymore.


    She had no choice but to say goodbye to him. She turned around and walked in the direction of the


    gate.


    After taking a few steps, she wanted to rush back and ask him why he hade to save her.


    Suddenly, a warm jacket covered her head.
