Chapter 1529


    To put his life at stake?


    Yeah, why didn''t he think about it before?


    If he was almost dying, Ollie wouldn''t possibly leave him, right?


    However...


    He sent another text message to Maddox.


    "Isn''t this too despicable?"


    "Despicable? Between husband and wife, this is a delight."


    Minerva walked out just as Maddox finished typing the sentence. He quickly put away his cell phone.


    Minerva caught sight of his action and narrowed her eyes. She asked, "Why are you being sneaky?"


    There was no way Maddox would show her the text messages he had sent Sam. He spread out his palm in front of her and said, "Nothing. Are you hungry? Do you want them to prepare lunch?"


    Looking at his action and expression, he was definitely hiding something. Moreover, he tried to change the subject.


    Minerva looked closely at him and said while squinting her eyes, "I''m not hungry. Take out your phone and show me." "Ahem..."


    "Give it to me," Minerva extended her hand towards him.


    "I really didn''t do anything. It''s just a phone. What''s there to look at?"


    "Maddox, you''re keeping secrets from me, aren''t you? Is there something in your phone that I can''t see? Let me ask you in another way, do you have someone else besides me?"


    Maddox frowned when he heard herst question. He could not bear to be used of such a wrongdoing, so he shook his head and denied it immediately.


    "How is that possible? I will never look at another woman other than you, let alone be interested in them."


    With that, he handed the phone over to Minerva obediently.C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    "I was texting Sam. I was giving him some suggestions."


    Facing Minerva''s questioning, Maddox became like a clueless little boy while he exined, as if he was afraid that the love of his life would be angry at him.


    "Sam?" Minerva asked as she keyed in her birth date into the passcode column on Maddox''s phone, "What suggestions can you give him? Didn''t he apply for leave recently? I heard that his wife just gave birth to a child. I haven''t visited the child yet. If I have time..."


    Minerva suddenly paused because she had read the conversation between Maddox and Sam.


    Maddox wasn''t sure how Minerva would react to the text messages he sent and if she would put the me on him, and he started to feel a little guilty. Momentster, Minerva looked up at him.


    "This is such ame idea! What do you mean by being at the verge of death? Is this what a normal person should do?"


    "Ahem, I was just saying that casually. Sam would never do such a thing, right?"


    Minerva asked again, "Didn''t his wife just gave birth? Why did they quarrel? No, you proposed the idea to him. What if he didn''t think properly and actually went with it? I have to give him a call."


    Minerva hurriedly called Sam.


    Sam didn''t receive Maddox''s previous text message. He figured that Young Master Yardley wasn''t interested in helping him anymore and had called him directly. Hence, he answered the call


    immediately.


    "Young Master Yardley, so how should I put myself on the verge of dying? Should I pretend to be in a car ident, or..."


    "Sam!"


    Minerva interrupted him sternly before he could finish speaking.


    Hearing that it was not the voice of Young Master Yardley but a familiar female voice, Sam was stunned for a moment, and only reacted a while after. "Young Madam?"


    "Don''t listen to hisme idea. You can''t risk your life. Also, don''t pretend to be in a car ident. Don''t take your life as a joke. These things could get serious."


    Faced with Minerva''s harsh scolding, Sam tried to exin hurriedly.


    "Young Madam, it''s not what you think. I''m just pretending. I''m not taking my life as a joke."


    He had just be a father and had the responsibility of protecting his family. How would it be possible for him to joke with his life?


    "So what if you''re just pretending? What if something happened to you during the process?"


    "There will be no ident."


    "If you are able to control the oue of the event, then it would not be called an ident! In short, you are not allowed to do this kind of thing. You quarrelled with Ollie, right? There are many ways to solve the problem. Don''t fool around with your life."


    After saying that, Minerva red at Maddox and reached out to pinch his arm. "It''s all your fault for giving him stupid ideas like these."


    Maddox felt the pain but was helpless. He could only withstand it and apologized.


    "Why don''t you tell me what had happened between you and Ollie? I''ll see if I could think of a solution."


    Did it mean that Young Madam would help him?


    After all, women should understand women better, right?


    However, the matter had something to do with Vera. Would it really be okay for Sam to just say it? He was starting to feel contemted.


    Sensing his hesitation, Minerva said,


    "Are you really going to listen to your


    Young Master Yardley and fool around with your life like this? I know you''re trying to win her over using the self-inflicted injury trick, but there are many other ways to solve a problem. There''s no need for this."


    It seemed that Sam finally came to his senses after Minerva lectured him. He finally told Minerva the whole story.


    Minerva ignored Maddox as she began to pay attention to help Sam out. She paced towards the window and listened carefully to what Sam had to say.


    After Sam had finished telling Minerva the matter, she frowned hard. Momentster, she said solemnly to Sam, "Indeed, you are quite in the wrong here for not handling the matter properly."


    Hearing Minerva''s words, Sam felt his heart sank all the more.


    "I knew I didn''t do it right, but it was urgent at that time, and I..."


    What could he say? He had made such a terrible decision in the nick of time and there was no excuse for it. Minerva also understood very well how Olivia felt when she was abandoned, especially when her husband had done so for the sake of the woman he had feelings for previously.


    When it happened, no matter if the man still liked the woman then was no longer important.


    That was because everything would be reced by the subjective consciousness.


    That was, between Ollie and Vera, he had chosen Vera. That could be a fatal blow for his rtionship with Ollie.


    Also, it wasn''t the matter of being petty or not, but most people would feel that way. It was just like a scar. It was impossible to ignore its existencepletely.


    Unless one was to y dumb, but how long would one be able to do so? Should they do it for the rest of their lives?


    "Sam, this is not a light matter


    anymore now. To me, if Maddox had


    done this to me, I don''t think I''ll


    forgive him no matter what he does Also, as you haven''t hurt her enough, you wanted to use your so called self-inflicted injury tricks on her Well, even if it seeded and if she was forced to stay, the matter would still not be resolved. There will always be a gap in your rtionship."


    "Young Madam, what do you mean?"


    "Actually, the best solution at the


    moment will be to give each other some time and space to calm down. I understand that the situation urgent at that time, but truth is indeed you abandoned Ollie and sent Vera to the hospital. Therefore, you should give her some time to be apart from you, and calm down."
