Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 783

After all, she and Maddox had almost got married. "Well, I promise I won't mention this incident to anyone else. Now that you have finally forgiven me, I have several things to tell you about Sebastian," Geoffrey replied.

"What is it?"

Minerva asked curiously.

After listening to Geoffrey, Minerva knew a lot about Sebastian, but... those were just small and insignificant matters. They weren't a big deal.

Minerva looked around and then lowered her head to look at the time. Linda would probably come to work in about fifteen minutes. She should have time to ask about what she wanted to know.

"Actually, there's something I want to know. Sebastian has he... always been living with the Collins family?"

This question was to test Geoffrey. After all, she knew the truth. If Geoffrey answered it honestly, this proved that he could be trusted in the future, but if he didn't...

As expected, after hearing this question, Geoffrey's expression became a bit subtle. He looked at Minerva and wanted to say something, but stopped on second thought.

Minerva asked him immediately, "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Geoffrey nodded and his expression seemed to be torn. Minerva was not in a hurry and waited for him patiently.

After a while, he finally looked as though he had everything figured out. He looked at Minerva and revealed, "There's actually no reason to hide the truth from you... But, your feelings for him are sincere, right?"

Minerva was speechless before finally sighing.

"If you think they are, then they are."

Geoffrey did not expect her to answer so casually. As a matter of fact, he was slightly dissatisfied with her reply. Yet, since Sebastian was falling for her, with a personality like Sebastian's, he probably wouldn't accept the fiancee that his family had chosen for him.

Hence, he felt that the situation in front of him was very likely to happen...

"Sebastian wasn't always at home. He's actually the grandson that Master Collins found," Geoffrey replied slowly.

Minerva's heart skipped a beat. Maddox was Jarold's grandson.

"Master Collins 'found' him?" Minerva blinked her eyes, pretending not to know anything as she asked, "Wasn't he living in the Collins family previously? Who would be willing to leave a family like the Collins family?"

"You're right. For a family like the Collins Corporation, normal people would be envious of their wealthy and luxurious lifestyle. However, their family is full of strange people. Not everything is as what it may seem, as what others would normally say."

"That's true," Minerva nodded. Then, she had an idea and asked, "Where did Master Collins find his grandson?"

Geoffrey blinked his eyes and gradually fell into Minerva's trap unknowingly. He started to explain.

"Once, he was on a boat..."

When he was about to tell Minerva the whole story, a cold voice was suddenly heard from the doorway.

"It seems you are really too idle. Do you need me to make another phone call?"

Both Minerva and Geoffrey were stunned. They turned their gazes toward the doorat the same time.

They had no idea when Maddox had been standing outside the secretary's office, but at that moment, he was staring at them coldly.

His sharp gaze was plastered murderously on Geoffrey, which made Geoffrey's scalp tingled instantly. He quickly whispered, "Minerva, I'll go first. I'll tell you later on."

He nodded heavily and replied seriously, "I can do anything as long as you ask me to!" "Come on. Don't be naughty anymore. Mommy will be back soon. Hopefully, we can reunite before soon, so stop being emotional, okay?" Minerva rejected him.

Beanie initially expected Minerva to be a little moved after what he said. However, he did not expect to be rejected by her again.

"Bad mommy, it's still a long time before we can meet. I want to see you now. I'm almost on my winter break. Can you please let me come over?"

"Mommy, pretty please? I promise I'll be a good boy."

Minerva had no choice but to change the subject and asked, "Where's your uncle? And Auntie Vera? How are they doing recently?"

Beanie could see that his mommy was trying to change the topic. He snorted and turned his head away to ignore her.

If it weren't for the complicated situation over here, Minerva really wanted to take Beanie with her.

But... she couldn't.

Considering the influence of the Collins family, it was impossible for them not to know Maddox's former identity. However, after knowing his identity, they insisted on giving him a new name. This meant that the Collins family knew about it all along.

The Collins family's influence was so great that before she could figure out the other party's motives, her only choice now was to approach Maddox with her current identity.

She had to let him restore his memories first.

This was to avoid... other problems arising when the time came. If Master Collins intervened in this matter, it would be challenging for her to bring Maddox away.

"Baby, it's not that I don't want to bring you with me. You've always been the most understanding person in the world. I hope you can understand me this time as well, okay?" Minerva tried to comfort him.
