Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 532

In the quiet car, someone's breathing suddenly became rapid.

Maddox held her hand and gritted his teeth. "So what? As long as you're in the photo, you are my wife."

Minerva smiled and gently pulled her hand back.

"Then you are wrong. We are not husband and wife by law, let alone in the real world. What's more, you gave me a contract that year. Have you forgotten all that?"

Maddox's expression turned even uglier when the contract was brought up.

He was the one who issued the contract, but now Minerva used it as a reason to refuse him. Was she digging her own grave?

"Maddox Yardley, what right do you have to monopolize others? You force me to go through your way all the time; you're such an insistent person. Wasn't it bad enough that you hurt me five years ago? Do you think you can do it again after five years? Who gave you the confidence to... make you feel like I'll come back to you again? I only have one chance in life and I've already thought it through over these five years. I want to start all over again. I want to stay far away from you."

These heartless and determined words made Maddox's face turn from livid to pale.

"Kimberly..." He unconsciously called out her former name. "Let me explain what happened in the past..."

Minerva seemed to have been provoked and suddenly snapped, "Don't call me by that name. Kimberly Shell died five years ago! The person standing in front of you now is Minerva Hanover. I'm no longer a Shell. I'll treat that scene as a farce. Please... Don't forcefully interfere with my life in the future."

After saying that, Minerva wanted to push open the car door but found that it was still locked. She said angrily, "Unlock it."

He didn't move.

Minerva started unlocking it on her own, while Maddox seized her hand and said, "I apologize."

Minerva's movements paused. "I hurt you five years ago, but at that time..."

"Do you know?" Minerva suddenly raised her head. "I don't know why you did that to me back then. I didn't ask or investigate for all these years because I really didn't want to know. Because, all I know is that you did that kind of thing, so... I don't care what made you do it. Whether you were forced or you had difficulties, I won't forgive you."

She never thought that difficulties could make a person do something irrational.

Hence, in her principles, she only cared about the results and did not care about the process.

Maddox's eyes were filled with pain. This woman was even more stubborn and difficult to deal with than he had imagined, yet he liked her character. She was so stubborn that she could kill him. She was extremely strong.

She even insisted on it.

"What should I do?" Maddox laughed in a low voice and his laughter was full of selfmockery. "You don't want to forgive me, but I don't want to give up on you. Forever."

Without a doubt, these words reached the deepest part of Minerva's heart.

She bit her lower lip. "Then just stay away from me and observe me. Don't interfere with my life. And..."

She thought for a moment and added, "Don't you dare hurt my family!"

At first, Maddox thought that she was talking about Quill. However, on second thought, she might have mentioned him just now. Besides Quill, who else was she talking about?

Maddox suddenly thought of the little boy's voice that could be heard on the hospital's phone that day.

The child called her 'Mommy'. At that time, Minerva's eyes were filled with tenderness.

That child was the apple of her eye, wasn't he?

Maddox felt terrible when he thought of how she had married into the family with her ex-husband's child and then risked her life to protect him. But what could he do?

He loved her. Even if she had someone else's child, so what?

Thinking of this, Maddox said with difficulty, "I won't hurt your family, and that child..."

Minerva's expression changed when she heard him mention the child. "Did you investigate me?"

Maddox suddenly felt that something was wrong when she mentioned the child and the following sentence was suspicious.

Why did she have to insist that the child was hers?

Maddox's gradually became more suspicious. Perhaps, he should really send someone to investigate what was going on.

However, on second thought, he had just promised her not to investigate her.

"D*mn it, she's really limiting my thoughts and actions," Maddox cursed in his heart.

"You can be my customer, but we can't go back to the past. If today's incident happens again in the future, we will be meeting in court. Maddox, I hope you remember what you said and never investigate me."

After that, she reached out to open the door. This time, Maddox didn't stop her.

After Minerva unlocked the car, she opened the car door and left on her own.

Maddox was sitting in the car, still thinking about what Minerva had said just now.

After a long while, he frowned and took out his mobile phone to call Sam.

He would get curious if he didn't investigate her, but would he be breaking his agreement with her if he did so?

"Maddox, you've just promised her and you've forgotten about it in the blink of an eye?"

"Doing so would only make her hate you even more."

In the end, Maddox's hand fell down powerlessly.

It was the first time he felt this frustrated.
