Chapter 814


    "Hello, Miss. A table for one?"


    Minerva stood in a daze in front of the restaurant for a long time. She looked indecisive as one foot


    of hers had entered the restaurant, while the other stayed outside. The waiter inside finally couldn''t


    help bute out and ask.


    Minerva raised her head and saw a very young man, Nelson standing in front of her. His clear eyes


    showed that he was from Hidalgo, but he spoke French to her.


    She nodded subconsciously. "Yes, one person please."


    Nelson''s face lit up. "Hey, are you from Hidalgo? I saw you standing here for a long time. Do you


    have any questions?"


    Minerva smiled and replied, "No, I don''t. I was on the phone just now."


    After that, she whispered to Geoffrey, "I have something else to do. I''ll be hanging up first."


    Then she hung up the phone immediately.


    "Minerva, don''t hang up. Let me talk to you for a while... Minerva?" When George was still shouting


    at the phone, he had already heard the busy tone.


    D*mn it. Why did he feel like he had done something bad again? When the Collins family was about


    to have dinner with the Dormer family, he immediately called Minerva to find out more. Who knew


    that Minerva did not answer his call and did not even reply to his Facebook messages.


    This didn''t seem to be her style. In the end, George had almost sted up her cell phone with his


    massive calls, but still she didn''t answer.


    Thus Geoffrey had panicked. He felt that Minerva must have known about this matter and was


    angry. Probably this was the reason she didn''t want to answer his calls.


    Therefore, when Minerva called him, he spoke in such an indiscernible way.


    "You are so stupid, Geoffrey."


    All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    He reached out and hit himself on the head without stopping. He was really stupid, he should have


    questioned her first. There remained a possibility that Minerva didn''t know about it.


    But what about now?


    Therefore, in the future, Minerva... would be his sister-inw?


    No way, he had to call Maddox and tell him about it. Otherwise, he would not be able to save


    everything.


    George quickly called Maddox. However, just like


    Minerva, he did not pick up the call at all.


    Geoffrey didn''t know where they had gone for dinner, and his phone couldn''t get through. He turned


    around in a hurry, grabbed his car key and ran out.


    After Minerva was weed in by Nelson, he got her a table by the window and handed her the


    menu.


    "It has been a long time since a Hidalgo citizenst patronized our restaurant. You are the first one I


    have met in the past half month. Since we arepatriots, today is my treat. Help yourself till you''re


    satisfied."


    Minerva took the menu a little absent-mindedly, but since the owner was so enthusiastic, she


    couldn''t bear to ignore him. She could only smile and say, "Thank you for your kind intentions. But


    we''re just strangers by chance, how could I possibly eat without paying?"


    "It doesn''t matter, it doesn''t matter. We''re fated to meet each other."


    "No, it''s fine, thank you."


    Minerva looked at the menu and ordered a few dishes. In fact, she liked the Hidalgo cuisine very


    much and was not picky about them.


    "That''s all? You''re too modest."


    She returned a smile and said, "I''ll pay the bill myself. Thank you."


    Nelson left with the menu.


    Minerva was sitting alone and got lost in her thoughts.


    Today, Maddox had gone to discuss the engagement with the Dormer family.


    "What has he been doing these days? Is it because he goes to my house every day, which has


    given me the wrong impression?"


    Or, the wrong impression was generated because of the kiss in the office.


    She felt that even though Maddox did not remember her, he still knew her subconsciously. That was


    why he acted that way.


    She even felt that she was very close to victory.


    But when she had heard the news today, she suddenly felt that she hadn''t taken a single step


    forward.


    Thinking of this, Minerva lowered her eyes and sat quietly in her seat.


    This restaurant was very efficient. It was probably because of the owner''s care forpatriots,


    Minerva''s orders were soon served.


    After serving the dishes for her, Nelson sat down opposite her and looked at her with his mobile


    phone. "Did youe abroad alone?"


    He stared intently into Minerva''s eyes. Her eyes were too beautiful... he seemed to have fallen in


    love with her at first sight.


    "No." Minerva shook her head. She picked up her cutlery and answered indifferently, "I came with


    my husband."


    In the next second, the smile on Nelson''s face froze, and was looking a little embarrassed.


    "Is there anything else?" Minerva looked up at him.


    Nelson coughed softly and shook his head. "It''s okay, take your time."


    Minerva continued to pick the food to eat. Before entering the restaurant, she was very hungry. But


    at that moment, the food didn''t taste good at all when entering her mouth.


    She forced herself to eat a little more and didn''t continue. Instead, she wiped the corner of her


    mouth with a tissue and got up to pay the bill.


    Nelson did note out again. She left the restaurant after paying the bill.


    At this moment, inside a luxurious hotel.


    "What a rare asion. Our families are able to sit and have a meal together." Jarold looked at Titan


    and Monica who were sitting across from him. He was a little surprised. "Oh right, why didn''t Zaydon


    come with you guys?"


    Titan stroked his beard and smiled. "He has things to do, that''s why I didn''t ask him toe with


    me."


    Monica looked at Maddox, who was sitting next to Jarold. Her eyes were filled with shyness as she


    lowered her head to look at the dress she was wearing.


    She had specially asked someone to buy her the dress, and it took a lot of effort to get the one and


    only dress.


    It was said that the design was designed by a woman. Although Monica had never seen the


    designer, her friends liked the designer''s design very much. It was just that her design was too


    difficult to get one''s hands on, and rumours had it that she''d not been designing any recently.


    Therefore, many of the previous dresses that had been taken photos of were not worn. They were


    taken back and ced on dummies.


    She had paid a lot of money to get this one.


    The makeup was also borately designed to match with the dress, hoping that she could leave a


    good impression on Maddox.


    She even thought that when their marriage was decided, she would also want to wear an


    engagement dress by this designer. Furthermore, she was willing to pay a lot of money for the


    designer to design her wedding dress.


    Without warning, she had thought too far away in the future. By the time Monica came back to her


    senses, her cheeks had already turned bright red.


    Both the elders were well aware of the purpose of their visit today, so after drinking three rounds,


    they began to discuss the engagement.


    The more Titan looked at the handsome Maddox, the more satisfied he became. He thought


    Maddox was indeed worthy of his granddaughter, who was the apple of his eye.


    He put down the small wine ss in his hand and raised his head to look at Jarold.


    "Jarold, do you still remember when we intentionally had our children marry each other? It''s a pity..."
