Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 612

Since a long time ago, Maddox and Benedict had completely fallen out with each other, and the days of them greeting each other no longer existed.

Sure enough, after Maddox said this, the expressions on everyone surrounding them quickly fell.

Was there a feud between them?

When Betty heard this, she instantly widened her eyes and exclaimed, "I didn't expect him to be so domineering. That's a good reply, but... Are they brothers?"

Suddenly, Betty gazed at Benedict with some curiosity. How would he respond after being humiliated in public?

Benedict finished paying the bill. He put away the card and walked forward. He did not show any negative emotions on his face. Instead, he remained gentle and peaceful.

He then returned calmly, "Are you still blaming me for that incident? I didn't mean for that to happen."

"Huh," Maddox sneered. He really didn't care about him at all. Seeing that Benedict's eyes were staring at his hand, which was holding Minerva, he gripped her hand even tighter. He even forced their fingers to become intertwined.

"You didn't mean for that to happen? Were you forced by someone else?"

Benedict looked at him. Their eyes met in the air and sparks flew. It was as if a war was about to break out.

Minerva knew that they didn't get along, but she didn't expect them to fall out with each other to this extent. Maddox's desire to urgently show his possessiveness in front of Benedict was strong. For example, he was holding her hand tighter than before.

Moreover, the moment that Benedict appeared, Minerva felt that something was different with Maddox.

He was... afraid.

However, she felt that she might've sensed it wrongly because she quickly lost that feeling from him. Furthermore, she felt that Maddox would never be fearful.

After all, how could the arrogant Maddox be afraid of seeing Benedict?

Even if Benedict registered a company on his own, it was impossible for his company to catch up with the Yardley Corporation.

So, where did this fear come from?

Unfortunately, before Benedict could speak, Maddox had already grabbed her hand and walked out. He walked in front, with Minerva behind him. She could see his back and how he was holding her with one hand and carrying the goods with the other hand. He really looked like her husband who had just finished shopping at the supermarket.

Unfortunately...

Minerva lowered her head and the light in her eyes dimmed a little.

Benedict looked at this scene and silently sealed away the coldness and sharpness in his eyes. Then, he took his things and walked out of the door.

Brock, who had witnessed all this, sighed and asked, "What is love? I feel bad for the elder brother. How could he still respond so nicely after being scolded in public?"

"Men are really naive. The elder brother's reply was actually very smart. Did you actually think that he was being good-tempered?"

"Huh?" Brock scratched his head and repeated, "Smart?"

"You're really simple minded. You just don't understand, do you? In front of his beloved woman, if he quarrels with his brother, wouldn't it look bad for him? Don't think that just because he looks gentle, he's nice. He's probably full of schemes."

"Full of schemes? How do you know that? Can you tell just by looking at him?"

"I definitely can't be sure, especially as this is the first time that we've met each other. It would be too much to say that he's scheming. That's why I only said it's possible. I didn't claim that it's confirmed!"

After that, Betty turned around and hit him on his head.

She looked at him in surprise. If she didn't get it wrong, Maddox was trying to carry her on his back, wasn't he?

However, they were already adults. Minerva felt that a piggyback ride was something that would only be done by young people.

And she...

"What are you dawdling about?" Maddox saw that she was in a daze as she just stood there. He then proceeded to pull her onto his back.

Before she could react, she could feel herself leaning against Maddox's back. He could only hold on to her butt with one hand because he was carrying the bag in the other. He warned her, "Hold on tightly to me if you don't want to fall."

Then, he stood up.

Everything happened quickly. Minerva wrapped her arms around his neck instinctively.

He could feel her skin against his. His lips curled up in satisfaction as he carried her on his back and walked forward.

They weren't that far away from home. Looking at how he was carrying her on his back and holding the bag with another hand, Minerva couldn't help but suggest, "Why don't I come down and walk on my own?"

"Huh." Maddox smirked. "Who was the one who said that she was tired just now?"

Minerva couldn't answer.

She lowered her head and looked at the blue veins on his neck. If she had known that this would have happened, she wouldn't have said anything.

After walking for a while, she still didn't hear him panting. However, Minerva was worried that he would be tired, so she tried to adjust her posture while being carried. She wanted to make things easier for him.

After twisting around for a while, Maddox's breathing became heavier. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Why are you moving around on my back?"
