Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

This was the first tMaddox stepped foot into a property that belonged to Minerva.

According to the results of Sam's investigation, this residence was owned under Minerva's nand it was her private property.

Maddox was impressed when he saw how capable she was when she worked in his company, thus, he speculated that not many would be on par with her if Minerva put effort into her work.

In the past, she lacked confidence, but now that she was confident, she was probably the one who would shine the most.

Therefore, Maddox was not the least bit surprised at her current achievements. It was as if all of this was within his expectations.

When he took off his shoes at the entryway, he noticed that Minerva had ignored him and went straight inside. His lips curled before he bent down to open the shoe rack and place his shoes inside. Maddox was flustered when he saw a row of children's shoes placed neatly on the top section of the rack.

These must belong to her child, right? This must be... the one who called her "Mommy" in a childish tone on the phone.

He did not know if it was a boy or a girl before, but now that he saw these shoes, Maddox was able to determine the child's gender.

It seemed to be a boy.

Maddox lowered his gaze. He did not expect that she would be so stupid to give birth to the child of that jerk.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a large pair of men slippers placed at the bottom of the shoe rack. Maddox's expression immediately darkened and his eyes turned icy cold instantly.

He went silent for a moment and then he closed the shoe rack as he walked inside barefooted.

At this moment, Vera cdown the stairs while drying her hair.

She took a bath when Minerva went out. At this time, she was wearing her cartoon pajamas and her hair was wet and messy. She called out, "Minerva, didn't you just cback? I heard someone coming. Why did you..." The rest of the conversation instantly cto a halt. Vera's eyes widened as she stared at the person behind Minerva.

The tall figure was imposingly strong and the coldness in his eyes enveloped the whole area in an instant. "Am... am I seeing things?" Vera stammered as she looked at the handsMaddox behind Minerva.

If she wasn't hallucinating, why on earth did Minerva bring a man back after going to the supermarket? Besides, this man was not just anyone. He was Maddox whom Minerva had always been avoiding like a plague. Minerva pressed her lips together and said in a low voice, "You are not hallucinating. Go dry your hair. Don't catch a cold." After being reminded, Vera realized that she was wearing her pajamas. She subconsciously bent down and said, "Then, I'll go upstairs first and give you two sspace!" After saying that, Vera turned around and hurried upstairs.

Looking at her back, Minerva slightly turned her head back and said, "What do you want to drink?" A cold reply cfrom behind.

"Anything." His tone was so icy that Minerva couldn't help but furrow her brows. What was going on with this guy? When she opened the door and let him in just now, his eyes still had that mischievous look. Yet, his facial expression immediately changed after entering.

Or had he returned to his normal self? Whatever, she wasn't going to give a d*mn about him. His icy expression was permanently plastered on his face anyway.

Thinking of this, Minerva simply stated, "Have a seat." Then, she turned around and went straight to the kitchen. She opened the kitchen refrigerator and looked at the food that had just been half filled. She recalled that he had arranged it properly for her in the dark before bringing it up for her. She could not help but sigh. However, when she thought of how he had frightened her by following her from behind, Minerva was so furious that she took out the iced water at the bottom of the refrigerator and then went out of the kitchen. Maddox was still standing there. He did not move and his feet were bare.

His feet were so big that he looked weird standing on the carpet in her home.

Minerva walked over and glanced at his feet. "Why aren't you wearing slippers?" Maddox's anger surged and his eyes were cold. He laughed and said, "Do you have slippers that I can wear?" Minerva was flustered when she heard this. She replied subconsciously, "Isn't there a pair that you can wear at the bottom of the shoe rack? I heard you open it just now. Didn't you see it?" How could she be so shameless by mentioning it? Maddox's aura grew colder and denser.

Minerva furrowed her beautiful brows. She was still not used to seeing him barefooted. If he did not reply, she would have thought that he really did not see them. After placing the iced water on the table, she walked to his side and said, "I'll help you get it." When she walked past Maddox, he grabbed her wrist.

"What are you doing?" Minerva looked up at him in confusion and instinctively wanted to push his hand away.

Maddox's lips were pursed into a straight line. His dark eyes were filled with viciousness. He looked at her sharply and parted his lips slightly moments later.

"There's no need." As if he was answering her thoughts, he sneered and said, "I don't wear shoes worn by others." Minerva was silent.

At first, Minerva thought that he was a germaphobe. However, while processing such thoughts, she felt that something was wrong. When she finally noticed the anger in Maddox's eyes, she eventually cback to her senses. She discovered that... He was actually jealous.

At first, he was fine when she let him in the house. However, his aura moment cooled down the moment he opened the shoe rack/ She was still wondering what was going on, thinking, "Why did this person's facial expression change so fast?" Who knew... He would actually feel jealous after seeing a pair of men's slippers.

Minerva was somewhat amused, but at the stime, she felt that Maddox was a little dumb.

Had he not always been very smart? He was so rational when dealing with those old foxes in the business world, but why did he behave like a very impulsive and inexperienced person when he was in front of her? Thinking of this, Minerva blurted out, "What do you mean by that? Quill uses that pair of slippers when he comes here." As soon as she spoke, both of them paused.

The reason why Minerva was flustered was because she did not expect to clarify this to him.

The reason why Maddox was in a daze was that he was enraged and forgot that she had an annoying elder brother.

She was right; this was her hafter all. Quill would definitely cover once in a while. It was normal for her to prepare a pair of men's slippers.

After thinking about this, Maddox's anger dissipated a lot. However, he still felt embarrassed, thus he spoke O coldly, "It won't do exen if they are your brother's. I have mysophobia. It's not like you don't know." Minerva looked at him with displeasure and sneered, "So, you are a neat freak. Since my hmust be covered in dust, do you wish to leave?" Maddox stared at her. "I only feel averse to other people, but not to you. You should know that." His gaze was glued to her lips. For sreason, Minerva thought of the kiss in the dark earlier.

She felt her face heating up for no reason.

That was right; he said he had mysophobia, but why didn't he feel disgusted when he kissed her? Furthermore, he had been kissing her passionately...
