Chapter 813


    It was very quiet in the exquisite private room, as if there was only the breathing sound of two


    people.


    Minerva looked at Zaydon who was sitting opposite her. Under the light, his almond eyes seemed to


    be a bit coquettish. Moreover, what he had just said...


    She smiled faintly. "And?"


    "Oh?" Zaydon raised his eyebrows. "You know what happened?"


    Minerva pursed her lips and did not speak. She looked very calm on the outside, but her lips


    gradually turned pale.


    "Alright, why don''t you say something that you don''t know?" Zaydon smiled faintly, as if he was


    provoking her on purpose. "Do you know about the engagement between the Collins family and the


    Dormer Family?"


    Zaydon saw that there was another emotion shing through her beautiful eyes, and his smiling lips


    became more smug. "It seems that I have finally said something that you don''t know. Looks like my


    effort today hasn''t been in vain."


    What he didn''t know was that Minerva''s hand was already clenched into a fist under the table. She


    really didn''t understand what Zaydon meant.


    "Thest time we met, you asked me why I didn''t invite you to my wedding, right?"


    "That''s right."


    "You didn''t know anything at that time, did you?"


    Zaydon shrugged. "I really don''t know. I''d been on a long trip, so I naturally wouldn''t care about


    things happening here. Besides, I''m not that interested in these things, and I don''t watch the news


    every day."


    Minerva looked at him and unclenched her fist. An icy smile appeared on her slightly pale lips.


    "How would I know if what you said is true or not? After all, you guys are family. Who knows if you


    are of the same mind?"


    After saying that, Minerva got up. "Well, let''s call it a day. It''s gettingte and I should go back."


    She then headed outside, and Zaydon''s voice rang out behind her.


    "Of course I''m of one mind with my sister, but it doesn''t mean I will agree with her decision. Maddox


    is an excellent man, but he doesn''t love Monica, so I can''t let her marry him."


    Minerva stopped but did not look back.

    She thought for a while.


    "So what does this have to do with me if you don''t want her to marry him?"


    Minerva interrupted him and turned to look at him. "Don''t tell me you want me to help you?


    Unfortunately, I can''t, and I don''t have this obligation."


    Everything was in the clear now that Minerva had said so. Looking at the woman who spoke


    decisively in front of him, Zaydon finally couldn''t help but frown.


    "Do you want them to get engaged? Maddox is..."


    "Mr. Dormer." Minerva cut him and didn''t let him continue. She continued quietly, "Although I almost


    got married to Maddox, in the end, nothing happened, and he''s single. Now that he has lost his


    memory, what I want to do is to have him remember me, not force him to ept me. If he really


    wants to get engaged to someone else, then I don''t have any opinions."


    At least to her, she valued rtionships.


    She even firmly believed that love could ovee all obstacles, as long as she was confident


    enough. Otherwise Maddox would not get close to her during this period of time.


    Because in his subconscious mind, he still remembered her.


    But if he still got engaged to someone else in this


    condition...


    Then, she really had nothing to say.


    She might love him, but as long as they were not bonded in marriage, he was free.


    What more, she was not the kind of person who liked topete with others. In fact, she hated it


    very much. Two womenpeting with each other for a man looked unbing.


    Minerva looked at Zaydon and nodded. Then, she turned around and left the room.


    Zaydon looked at the spot where she left in a daze. Initially, he had thought that she would


    cooperate together with him immediately. He for Monica''s, and she for Maddox, cooperating


    together.


    But he didn''t expect that she would turn him down and state something like that.


    She looked like she didn''t give a d*mn, how could she have done it so carefree and easily?


    Suddenly, Zaydon''s opinion of Minerva changed.


    People really couldn''t bepared. Compared to Minerva''s generous personality, Monica was


    really childish.


    Aftering out, Minerva looked at the bustling street in front of her. Night gradually fell and the


    street lights along the street had brightened, elongating her shadow.


    She was not familiar with this ce. It seemed that she could only take a taxi.


    Just as Minerva took out her phone and was about to call for a taxi, she found a lot of messages on


    her Facebook Messenger. She tapped on them and saw that all of them were sent to her by


    Geoffrey. He asked her where she had gone, and why she wasn''t answer his calls.


    She realised that he had actually called her several times, but her phone was on silent mode at


    work, and she forgot to turn it off when she got off work.


    Minerva returned her phone settings to standard mode and then called Geoffrey.


    "Owl!!"


    Just as the phone got through, George cried out in anguish, which startled Minerva. She pinched


    the space between her eyebrows and walked along the street.


    She saw a restaurant serving Hidalgo cuisine in front of her, and suddenly felt a little hungry. She


    wanted to have a meal before going back.


    "Minerva, you finally showed up. I thought you had lost your temper and went missing!"


    Minerva went speechless.


    Geoffrey kept howling on the other end. "You can''t do this. You must keep in touch with me. I


    promise I''ll update you with news once I get hold of them."


    Minerva replied, "Why would you think that I''ve gone missing because I lost my temper?" She felt


    feeble, yet her footsteps were very fast, and she was getting closer to the restaurant.


    "Don''t you know, Minerva?"


    "What?" Minerva had already gotten a whiff of the food, and couldn''t help smiling.


    "Today, Master Collins invited Titan Dormer and his granddaughter, Monica, to discuss the


    engagement."


    Minerva was about to enter the restaurant but suddenly stopped in her tracks, and did not take


    another step forward.


    Did she hear it wrongly?


    They''re going to discuss the engagement between Maddox and Monica today?


    Hearing no sound from her side, Geoffrey was a little scared. "Minerva, you... you know about this,


    don''t you? I, I thought you knew it, so you lost your temper and refused to pick up my call."


    "Minerva? Holy cr*p! Answer me quickly. I feel like


    I''ve done something offensive..."


    George''s chattering came from the other end of the phone, and Minerva came back to her senses.


    After a long silence, her beautiful eyes cooled down. "Now I know."


    It turned out that the reason why he didn''t go to her home for dinner that day was to discuss the


    engagement?


    Minerva felt as if a big P?ece of her heart had been ripped away.
