Chapter 966


    Upon hearing the word "cheat", the corners of Minerva''s mouth twitched. She then looked speechlessly at Vera.


    "Can you please tell me what kind of absurd thinking you have?"


    It was unbelievable that Vera actually thought that Maddox was cheating on her.


    Under Minerva''s contemptuous gaze, Vera covered her mouth with her hand. After a moment, sheughed awkwardly, "Well, you know, my brain circuits have always been a little strange. It''s all because I''m a little stupid..."


    "No matter how strange things may seem, you shouldn''t jump to conclusions like that," Minerva thought to herself.


    Vera realized that she had said something wrong. She made a gesture of zipping her mouth in front of Minerva, indicating that she would stop talking nonsense anymore.


    As for Minerva, she knew her friend too well. Aside from the fact that she felt that Vera''s thinking was a bit too far-fetched, she didn''t feel that it was inappropriate and she wasn''t angry at all.


    She calmly thought about this matter.


    Maddox definitely had something to hide from her. As for what it was, she did not know. However, it was definitely not a small matter for him to make up such an excuse.


    She was hesitant about whether she should pretend that she didn''t know, or should she confront him about it?


    What could have happened that made him not want to see her?


    Since she had not seen him, she had two guesses in her mind. One was good, the other was bad. However, she still felt that it would be the good one. After all, she did not wish for her man to do anything bad behind her back.


    If she had seen Maddox and saw his condition, she would definitely stop him.


    "Excuse me?"


    Someone was tugging at her sleeve. Minerva came back to her senses and saw that Vera was trying to say something to her, but nothing wasing out.


    "What''s wrong?"


    She asked, but Vera still didn''t say anything. She just pointed to her mouth.


    Minerva stared at her for a while. Suddenly, she remembered that prior to this, Vera made a gesture of zipping her mouth, and she didn''t dare to sprout nonsense again. At this moment, she had something new to say?


    "You mean... You want me to unlock it for you?" Minerva tilted her head and asked.


    Vera nodded hard.


    "Oh." She smiled faintly. "I''m not going to unlock your mouth. You should stay this way."


    An anxious expression suddenly appeared on Vera''s face, but Minerva calmly stood up. She stretched her body and said, "Hey, I''ve been sitting for a long time, and my legs are feeling a little ufortable. I''ll go out for a walk."


    When Vera heard that, she followed her out as she could not possibly let a pregnant woman go out alone.


    As they were walking, she kept indicating to Minerva to unlock her mouth, but Minerva kept looking elsewhere and pretended not to notice what she was trying to do.


    In the end, Vera couldn''t stand it anymore. She burst out and roared at Minerva, "I''ve had enough!"


    Minervaughed and said, "You can''t hold yourself back anymore?"


    Vera was furious. "I''m going to suffocate to death if I keep going on this way! Minerva, I can''t believe you can be so heartless! I''ve been trying to get your attention for so long, yet you''re still adamant on ignoring me. If I was to really die, you won''t have a sister-inw in the future."


    "It''s not that I''m heartless," Minerva replied. "After all, you were the one who zipped your own mouth. Besides, how are you so sure that you can be my sister-inw?"


    "Well, anyway, I''ll just do as I please! If ever the timees when I really be your sister-inw, let''s see whether you''ll still dare to treat me this way!"


    "Oh, you''re actually thinking of bullying me in the future? Do you think I should cut off all ties now to avoid any trouble in the future?"


    When Vera heard this, she immediately gave up and said, "I''m sorry. I didn''t mean that!"


    After walking for a while, Minerva felt a little tired and said, "Let''s go back."


    Maddox did note back on the first and second day.


    On the third day as well, he was still nowhere to be seen.


    On the fourth day, the person who went to report to Minerva was Sam.


    On the fifth day, she grew a little impatient. Vera began to bad-mouth Maddox into her ear again.


    On the sixth day, Minerva looked at Sam with a sullen face, and her eyes looked murderous.


    He felt a chill run down his neck. Just as he was about to speak, she opened her mouth first, "Is he still noting back today?"


    He was taken back and swallowed the words he wanted to say. He nodded his head with difficulty and then said, "Young Master Yardley..."


    Before he could finish his sentence, Minerva had already stood up. She said softly, "It''s already the sixth day. What is he doing? Can''t you let me know?"


    "Well, this... Actually, thepany is really busy these days!"


    "Sam, you liar!" Vera saw that Minerva was getting angry, so she also stood up. She directed her words to him and said, "Things have alreadye to this, and yet you''re still trying to lie? You had better tell us the truth."


    He remained silent.


    He did not expect to be scolded by Vera; he looked at her with pleading eyes.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    "It''s okay if you don''t want to tell us. I won''t force you."


    Minerva knew that Sam did not dare to say anything because of Maddox. She understood that he would be in trouble if he spilled the beans.


    She said, "I''ll send someone to look into it myself. If he''s not nning to let me know anything, you can go back and tell him, see to it that I never find out what he''s trying to hide."


    Sam kept silent again.


    He didn''t expect Young Madam to be so persistent. He couldn''t stand it. He wasn''t very good with words, so he could only nod and said, "I understand, Young Madam. I''ll definitely pass on these words to Young Master Yardley."


    "Yes, please do."


    Before Sam left, he couldn''t help but


    steal another look at Vera, and he


    saw that she was ring at him angrily. When she saw him looking back at her, she scolded, "What are you thinking? Can''t you just tell Minerva what''s going on? It''s only a matter of time when she will find


    out.


    You were able to deceive everyone for a few days. Now, she is suspicious and she will investigate things herself. Why are you still so stubborn? She is the wife of Young Master Yardley. Is there anything between the married couple that can''t be said? If you tell her the truth, we will not me you. As long as she doesn''t me you, Young Master Yardley wouldn''t do anything to you either."


    Whatever the case, Vera thought that women shouldn''t be offended.


    Moreover, Minerva was the woman of his boss.


    Minerva was not an unreasonable woman. However if she was, and if the truth came to light one day, even though Minerva and Maddox may be on good terms with each other, it would be easy for her to get rid of Sam with just a few words. Content

    She really didn''t know what he was thinking, and he didn''t even know how to be flexible!


    After Sam was scolded by Vera, he suddenly felt that she seemed to be right.


    He could barely put up with it for a


    few days, and that was because Young Madam didn''t try to probe into it. Now that she had decided to do some investigations, she was bound to find out sooner or would be better if he told her the truth now.

    As he thought about this, he gave Vera a look with gratitude in his eyes. Then he said, "Well, let me tell you everything."
