What could she say?
She had no choice. After all, the sound insulation was not very good. Even if she tried not to pay attention to it, the sounds would still flow through her ear drums.
But she couldn't possibly muffle her ears.
At first, she was a little annoyed. But then she thought, "Isn't this normal for an adult? Besides, it's not easy for a young couple to rent a place."
Thus she didn't report them to Belinda. Instead, she would go to bed early every night.
But now that Maddox had mentioned it and made fun of her, she felt so ashamed that she had to urge to dig a hole and bury herself.
Just when she was feeling helpless, Maddox bombarded her with another one shocking statement, saying lightly, "Who told you that I won't live here?"
Minerva's eyes widened in shock.
She was confused.
He raised his hand and pinched her chin, while his thumb moved to her lips. There was a touch of dissatisfaction in his dark eyes. "Did you touch up your lipstick again?"
Minerva nodded her head guiltily.
If she didn't retouch it up, the wound on her lips would be too obvious. That's why she had to do it.
He didn't say anything, yet his gaze continuously fell on her lips, patiently wiping away the lipstick on her lips bit by bit with his finger.
Soon, Minerva saw that his thumb had turned red.
Her lips moved. When she wanted to say something, he suddenly leaned over and kissed her, pressing her against the door while kissing her softly.
Minerva blinked her eyes nervously.
In fact, when he had started wiping her lips, she began to feel nervous, wondering if he would wipe away her lipstick to... and she had guessed it right!
After being kissed for a while, Minerva suddenly came back to her senses. She reached out her hand and pushed him away, gasping slightly and said, "The door, the door is not open yet."
Maddox closed the door indifferently, then continued by grabbing the back of her head as he pressed it against his forehead. "It's been a while and yet I still don't have my own pair of indoor slippers?"
Minerva blinked her eyes. Her long eyelashes fluttered like two mini fans. She said in a daze, "You, you didn't say you wanted it."
Maddox narrowed his eyes. "Disqualified."
"Huh?"
Before she could react, he pinned her to the wall and kissed her again.
Minerva only retained her senses when Maddox brought her out of the house and helped her fasten her seatbelt in the car.
Just now... what had happened?
Well, it seemed that they were talking about him not having indoor slippers. He kissed her for a long time, and then he put his arms around her neck and persuaded her to move as it was not only dark there, but safety was also a concern as well.
Maddox also couldn't endure the fact that the couple who lived next door would pose as a bad influence for Minerva.
Obviously, Minerva did not agree as moving again would be a hassle. Later on, without much awareness of it, they went out to the supermarket straight after the kissing episode.
After coming out of the supermarket, it was already dark. All the things were put in the trunk by Maddox, and she didn't carry any of the groceries.
Maddox was like a model boyfriend, doing anything to the best of his ability. He had even helped her with all the chores, and all she had to do was to hug him.
After finishing dinner in the evening, Minerva cleaned up the dishes. However, her mind was filled with thoughts.
She had known Maddox for some time. This time period was neither long nor short.
For him, who was wished by many to have his memory restored, this period of time was actually really tough. Except for their first intimacy, he didn't seem to have any other reaction aside from that time.
Thinking of this, Minerva had no mood to continue the washing. After drying her hands, she turned around and went out.
Minerva went speechless instantly.
Her brain was completely shut down. What did Maddox say to her just now? Asking her to go with him to see Jarold? Did she misheard him?
It seemed that their relationship had just been confirmed.
No, that's not right. There wasn't any close interaction between the two of them. How could he ask her to take her to see Jarold?
Minerva was also very touched although she was knocked out by this news.
Even though Maddox had said that he liked her before, his actions showed that he cared for her more than her expectations.
"Hmm?" Seeing that she was lost in thought, Maddox asked again.
Minerva hesitated, "I..."
She couldn't go to Jarold with him at this time. He didn't look like he was stimulated at all. It was too impulsive to go at this time.
Minerva bit her lower lip in a dilemma, her expression a mixture of distress.
Maddox looked at her for a while, and his eyes suddenly sank.
"Isn't it too fast?"
Now that their conversation had reached such a stage, Minerva took the opportunity to ask him a question.
She took the initiative to simply put her arms around his neck. "Are we in a relationship now? You want to take me to meet your grandfather so soon?"
Maddox looked at her and narrowed his eyes. "Are we not? When I was downstairs, Belinda..."
"Then I have something to ask you. Did you feel anything when you kissed me?"
