"Do you like me?"
An indifferent voice sounded above her head.
Minerva suddenly raised her head and stared at Maddox with wide eyes.
After that, she shook her head subconsciously. "No."
"No?" Maddox laughed. He got up and squinted at her. "Do you think that I will believe it?"
She was probably worried that the incident the previous day would happen again. She took two steps back and hurriedly explained for herself, "It was because I saw that you kept drinking coffee and you weren't in good spirits. Thus, I decided to change the coffee to milk for you. I just felt that milk can help you with your sleep and it's good for your body. There's no other meaning to it."
Probably because Minerva was afraid that he wouldn't believe her, she added, "Of course, even if it's not you, as long as it's my boss, I would do the same thing!"
His eyes grew darker as he watched her being nervous and helpless.
Obviously, the woman in front of him was thinking about him. He wouldn't get it wrong, seeing the way she looked at him previously.
However, she was very smart. She did not admit that she was interested in him because she wanted to stay a little longer, right?
She wanted to stay, but she still dared to challenge his patience.
"Are you stupid, or are you a fool?"
He said all of a sudden.
"Huh?" Minerva was confused.
Maddox turned around and said in a cold tone, "Bring me coffee before I get mad. As for the milk... If you think it's nutritious."
He turned his eyes slightly, revealing the handsome side of his face. "I'll give it to you then."
Since he had said so, Minerva knew that he definitely wouldn't drink the milk. In fact, he didn't like to drink milk either. To him, milk was like poison because he didn't like the taste.
Now that she didn't have any kind of relationship with him, she really couldn't expect him to change liking coffee into milk with just a few words of hers.
However, she refused to give up. Compared to Maddox getting mad, she was more worried about his health.
She went forward and picked up the glass of milk. After thinking for a while, she couldn't help but ask, "Well... If you don't want to drink milk, do you want me to make you a cup of tea?"
He frowned.
"The tea is good. It's as refreshing as coffee and it's healthy. It's much better than coffee."
In fact, coffee was not a bad thing. It was just that he had drank too much coffee.
He finally looked at her with displeasure and the cold aura on his body became arrogant. "Do you want to be fired?"
Minerva didn't reply.
Well, she was frightened.
In the end, she took the glass of milk and left the office.
She was going to make a cup of coffee for Maddox in the pantry again.
As Linda knew what had happened, she was waiting at the entrance of the secretary's office for the results.
When she saw Minerva walking past the entrance of the secretary's office with the glass of milk in her hand, she came up to her with a smile. "Now you know that you're in the wrong? You've only been at work for two days, yet you want to change the boss' habits. You should give up on this idea in the future. I'd advise you to forget about Mr. Sebastian..."
Linda shook her head as she looked in the direction of Sebastian's office.
"He's not someone that an ordinary person can handle, and..."
If she didn't say it, Minerva wouldn't ask. However, when she said half of it and stopped, Minerva became curious. She looked at Linda doubtfully and asked, "And what?"
"And even if you really moved him one day, it won't last long."
Just now, he gave her that glass of milk.
She really drank it.
Humph, she was really an obedient woman.
Maddox got up subconsciously when he saw the milk stain. He reached out to wipe away the stain that was on the corner of her lips.
The feeling of the skin touching each other made them freeze at the same time. Minerva saw the white stain on his fingertips and finally understood what was going on. She quickly stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and widened her eyes in disbelief.
Sh*t, she was so angry that she gulped down the milk without thinking about anything else. She didn't expect... That she actually left a stain on the corner of her mouth.
Maddox stared at the white stain on the tip of his finger and suddenly realized what he had done. A sharp glint flashed through his dark eyes and he said coldly, "You may leave now."
Minerva stuttered, "I..." "Why are you still here?" He squinted his eyes and stared at her unhappily.
She didn't know what she was thinking. Her heart had skipped a beat. She hurriedly stumbled out of the office.
After she left, Maddox stared at his fingertips in a daze.
After a while, he took out his handkerchief and wiped off the stain on his fingertips. He wiped them over and over again.
Yes, that's it.
He should be like this. No matter who touched him, he should avoid it and eliminate those traces. He shouldn't behave like this...
He couldn't control himself. When he saw the stain on the corner of her mouth, he reached out to wipe it off for her.
This was not what he should do.
Maddox pursed his thin lips and threw the handkerchief, which was used to wipe his fingertips, into the bin beside him with a cold face.
After Minerva left, everything around him returned to normal.
