Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Minerva had a long dream. In the dream, she felt as if she was in a sea of fire. The fire burned her skin and it hurt a lot, but no matter how hard she struggled, she could not break free. Her body even continued to sink as if it was going to be swallowed by the sea of fire.

Suddenly, a cloud of coldness washed through and it surrounded her in the sea of fire. In the end...

The sea of fire disappeared and then she fell into darkness again.

The aroma of food met her in her sleep. Her stomach grumbled and she felt a little hungry.

She slowly opened her eyes.

What Minerva saw was a familiar room. She looked around and confirmed that it was her room.

She closed her eyes again and took a deep breath shakily.

Her head felt heavy, as if someone had just knocked her hard. It was uncomfortable.

The aroma of food...

Wasn't Vera at work? She vaguely recalled that Vera knocked on her door when she woke up, then she told Vera to go to the company first before saying that she would rush to the company later.

What twas it then? Thinking of that, Minerva opened her eyes and sat up. She stretched out her hand to grab the phone on the bed. Probably due to her getting up too quickly, Minerva felt a wave of dizziness. Her vision darkened and her body fell backwards.

Her head hit the soft pillow and it took her stto regain her consciousness.

At the stime, a man's low voice sounded. There was a hint of worry in his voice, "Have you woken up?" That voice...

Sounded very familiar.

Minerva opened her eyes again, and sure enough, Maddox's handsface appeared in front of her.

How was it him? Minerva thought that she was still dreaming and tried to chase him away.

So it wasn't a dream? Seeing that Minerva didn't look well, he pursed his lips and reached out to help her up. Then, he placed a pillow behind her and said, "Are you a fool? How could you sit up in such a hurry?" Maddox was caring...

Minerva's pale lips moved. Just as she was about to say something, Maddox handed her a cup of water, "Drink swater." Minerva fell silent.

She received the cup.

Although he was very considerate, his tone was still as commanding as ever when he asked her to drink the water.

That man was born with the demeanor of a leader.

Minerva's mouth felt dry as well. She drank half the cup to moisten her throat and lips before handing the cup back.

Maddox retrieved the cup and put it aside. Then, he got up and went to the table next to her to get her a bowl of soup.

The dizziness subsided. Minerva picked up her phone and looked at it. It was still noon and it still wasn't tto leave work, so Vera shouldn't be back by then.

So where did the bowl of soup on the table cfrom? Did he cook it? Minerva looked at Maddox with confusion as he approached her with the bowl of soup. Then, he sat down in front of her, scooped up a spoonful of soup and blew on it. Minerva did not dare to eat it. She looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Maddox was very smart, so he quickly understood her thoughts. His thin lips curled slightly and he said, "I got the chef to send this soup over, so you don't have to worry that it might be poisoned." Minerva didn't speak.

"Here," he lifted the spoon of soup to her lips.

"Open your mouth and eat." Minerva replied, "I'm not a child!" "But you're sick." Maddox's gaze and actions were determined, as if he wouldn't budge even if Minerva said anything.

The first time; this was the first the personally fed her food.

Why did it feel so strange? Minerva couldn't get used to it no matter how she tried. She turned her head away, unwilling to take the soup.

A hint of annoyance flashed across Maddox's dark eyes when he saw how stubborn she was. He reached out to pinch her chin and forced her to turn around.

"Be obedient," Maddox said.

Minerva's chin hurt from the pinch. She struggled for a moment but was unable to escape, so she said angrily, "Let go of me. I don't need you to feed me." Maddox tightened his lips and his eyes were filled with coldness.

"Do you really have to argue with me? Do you not want to eat it because I'm the one feeding you?" Maddox asked coldly.

"No," Minerva shook her head, "I'm just not used to being fed. I'm not a child. I can eat on my own." However, Maddox felt that she was resisting him, because from the beginning till then, everything she did had a hint of resistance. It was the sat that moment, but she was also very fragile. "You're not used to it? Then get used to it from today onwards!" Maddox said.

"Maddox, are you okay? Why should I get used to it?" Minerva was a little angry, and her beautiful eyes were filled with anger.

Maddox laughed coldly and tightened his grip on her chin. The sound of his voice lowered.

"Do you think I'm sick? Who is the patient lying in bed right now? You're a fool who can't even take care of" Leven your own health. How dare you say that you're not a child? How can you take care of your son when you're like this?" When Minerva heard his words, the fury she once felt disappeared. Her facial expression changed drastically. She stared at Maddox in shock.

"How, how did you know that?" She asked.

How did he know that her child was a boy....

Minerva's face turned even paler when she thought of something. "You investigated me? Maddox, how dare you not keep your promise!" Maddox's eyes dimmed slightly when he heard that. He smiled triumphantly.

"In your heart, I'm always the person who doesn't keep his promise. Minerva, when can you start to trust me?" Maddox asked.

"What about you?" Minerva raised her voice. "You wantto trust you, but have you done anything to prove your innocence? Don't you know you've hurttremendously in the past? You promisedthat you wouldn't investigate me, but here you are doing the exact opposite. How dare you demand forto believe you!" She was very emotional and Maddox was also in a bad mood, so he retorted.

"I noticed a few pairs of shoes when I was changing my shoes, and they were all boy's shoes. Do you think I am a fool, or have you underestimated yourself?" Initially, Minerva was fuming with rage. However, when she heard Maddox say that he only found out that her child was a boy when he saw his shoes, her anger instantly diminished.

She froze and she stared at Maddox, who was looking at her with a hurt expression.

All of a sudden, the room fell silent and Minerva could only hear her own breathing. After a while, Maddox admitted defeat and lowered his eyes.

"Don't be angry. I've said before that I won't investigate you, so I won't ever do it again. Even if someone Broughtyour information, I won't look at it. So, can you eat now?" Maddox said. He really wanted to please her...

Minerva's eyes suddenly turned red. Then, she angrily pushed away Maddox's hand and knocked over the bowl of soup in his hand with great anger.

"Get out! Get out of here!" She shouted.
