Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 654

Hearing this, Vera's face immediately changed.

"Beanie, that isn't what we agreed on. You promised me and now you're going back on your word?"

"However... I can tell him that I want to eat lobster and ask him to take me there."

Hearing this, Vera's eyes lit up instantly. She held Beanie's shoulder tightly and was so moved that she almost burst into tears. "Beanie, you really are a darling. Ill cook whatever you want to eat from now on!"

He blinked his eyes and felt like he had just hit the jackpot.

By the time Minerva woke up, it was already noon. The blazing sun was high up in the sky. Even though the curtains were drawn, the room was still exceptionally bright.

She looked at the unfamiliar surroundings and remembered what Maddox said to her the night before.

After thinking for a while, she slowly got up.

This place didn't look like a hotel but more like a residence. It was unfamiliar. It couldn't be Ocean Villa as there was no sound of waves.

"Where am I then?"

Minerva lifted the blanket and got up. It was quiet. She saw her phone on the table.

She walked over and picked up her phone. She noticed a message from Maddox.

"After you see this, go freshen up. I've prepared all the toiletries for you. There are clothes in the closet. When I get back, we can have lunch together."

After a while, Minerva went into the bathroom and found that there were toiletries prepared. She put the phone aside, brushed her teeth and washed her face.

Then, she stared at the cup on the shelf blankly.

It was a set.

Moreover, there were three of them, two big ones and a little one.

It was as if it was specially prepared for her and Beanie, for a family of three to wash up.

Minerva did not know why, but when she saw this, her heart was fuzzy.

She turned on the camera and adjusted the focus and filter. She took a picture of the cups, looked at the photo and was smiling like a fool.

She spent about ten minutes in the bathroom. When she came out, she followed the instructions and went to the wardrobe. She opened it and the wardrobe was filled with all sorts of women's clothing; tops, trousers, dresses and skirts. It was an extensive selection.

All these clothes... When did he prepare them?

After taking a look at the clothes, Minerva finally chose a set of casual clothes for herself. She sat down and sent a message to Maddox.

"It's still pretty early. Why don't I head back first? I won't wait for you."

Yardley Corporation.

In the middle of a meeting, Maddox sat at the head of the table. A couple of seasoned shareholders were going arguing in front of him, but Maddox remained expressionless.

His phone vibrated in his pocket and his expression changed slightly before he took out his phone.

Although he was the one who banned phones during meetings, his phone vibration reminded him of Minerva, who was still asleep in his house.

Afraid that he would miss her message, he briefly took out his phone and saw a Facebook messenger notification. He smiled lightly and used his fingerprint to unlock his phone. However, what he saw was Minerva's message telling him she would not be waiting for him.

Maddox's cheeriness immediately fell. He couldn't care less if he was in the conference room; he immediately called Minerva.

Soon after she sent her message, she put her phone down. She thought that Maddox was at work, so he wouldn't reply so quickly.

However, his call came as the message just sent.

It was almost immediate...

Minerva answered the phone, "Hello?"

"What are you going to do if you don't wait for me?"

A deep male voice suddenly sounded. He lowered his voice so that the seasoned shareholders' argument would shroud it.

"Do you have a problem with that?"

His eyes were piercing. Everyone was flabbergasted when they saw his gaze, but after some consideration, they stepped forward again.

"It's not that I have any problems, but we're all in the middle of a discussion. We're not even halfway done. You can't just leave us."

"Oh," Maddox's face was cold. "Then, let's pause the meeting. You guys wait here. Well continue when I get back."

"Y-Young Master Yardley..."

"Mr. Yardley, time is money. You..."

However, before they could finish speaking, Maddox had opened the conference room door and disappeared.

Everyone looked at each other and after a while, one of them asked in a low voice.

"What should we do? Are we really going to wait here?"

"Huh, I think we'd better forget about it. He probably won't be back for a couple of hours. Didn't you see his tone and expression on the phone?"

"Huh? Was he on the phone with a woman?"

"It seems so. Everyone, let's go back to our stations. Let's postpone this meeting to tomorrow."

"If that's the case, then... Let's go. See you tomorrow."

They took their things and left the conference room.

As everyone left, all of them had the same thought. What happened was rather familiar... Where had they seen this before?

Minerva wanted to tell Maddox it wasn't necessary when she heard that he was picking her up. However, he knew she might refuse, so he hung up before she could answer.

She was speechless.

"Does he have to be so domineering?"
