Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 972

The moment Maddox saw her tears, he immediately knew that he had done something wrong.

He could only hold her in his arms and coax her over and over again, continuously apologizing.

There was no one else with them in the quiet place. The only sound that could be heard was his apology. It was exceptionally soft, as if he was afraid of scaring Minerva. Occasionally, the sound of sobbing could be heard as well.

He had coaxed her for a long while, but she didn't seem to be getting any better. He was getting anxious.

He said, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I'll listen to you next time, okay? You can do whatever you want to me, is that alright?"

In fact, she didn't want to cry, but she couldn't control her emotions at that moment. The more he said, the more distressed she felt.

She felt that she had been greatly wronged.

That was how people were. When no one loved and cared about them, they would only hide themselves away even if they got hurt.

However they would also be fragile and be easier to cry.

She belonged to the latter.

Before she had met him, she had remained calm and composed.

However, after seeing him, she became as fragile as glass.

Minerva took a deep breath. As she was about to stop crying, Maddox suddenly bent down to kiss her. She was shocked. However, it was too late for her to push him away.

He locked her lips, and the salty tears slid down her cheeks into her mouth.

The kiss started to change.

One second passed, two seconds passed...

She finally came to her senses. She stretched out her hand to push him away, but he grabbed her and pulled her back into his arms to deepen the kiss.

"Oh."

She didn't know when she stopped crying. Perhaps the tears stopped flowing by this sudden kiss, or perhaps it was because she had cried enough.

After what seemed like ages, he finally let go of her.

He put his forehead against hers. His eyes were deep, and his pale lips moved slightly and he whispered, "I'm sorry, I won't do this kind of thing again in the future. Will you forgive me?"

She was still flabbergasted from his kiss. When she heard what he said, she looked up at him and saw the dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he hadn't slept well recently.

There were also dense stubble on his chin, and his face looked very pale.

Even with one look it was obvious that he went through a very bad time.

Minerva bit her lower lip and said, "If you do such things again in the future, I will never forgive you anymore. Then, I will take Beanie and the child in my stomach and leave."

When Maddox heard this, he squinted his eyes. "No!"

She explained, "What I'm trying to say is if you do such a thing again in the future..."

"No." He interrupted her and said decisively, "Since you don't like it, I won't do it anymore."

He looked at her, who was right in front of him. He couldn't help but kiss her on the corner of her mouth. His gesture felt soft, tender and loving.

After he kissed her, he still felt a little dissatisfied. He held her face and covered his thin lips on her forehead, and said in a hoarse voice, "No matter what happens, I will listen to you in the future."

Truth to be told, it was a romantic thing when a man kissed a woman's forehead. In the past, Maddox seldom did this. She didn't expect that he would actually apologize and kiss her forehead that day.

Minerva's heart became soft. Her body was no longer as stiff as it used to be and she nestled in Maddox's embrace.

"Remember what you just said"

"Yes, I will."

She remained in his arms and closed her eyes, trying to relieve the pain of longing that she had because she had not seen him all week.

After a long time, she couldn't help but ask, "Do you really... really want to regain your memories?"

He thought to himself, of course. If he didn't want to regain his memories, he wouldn't have to suffer so much. However, he also knew that she didn't want him to go through all this suffering.

"Because I didn't expect that you would agree so soon. I thought... you wouldn't want to go back to Hidalgo with me."

He was silent. However, his eyebrows frowned together as he pursed his thin lips tightly.

It turned out that... she was actually afraid of him.

No, it should be because she didn't trust him enough, and she didn't think he would go back with her.

When Maddox was thinking about this, he grabbed her hand, and his eyes gradually became darker.

"Don't be suspicious, and don't worry. I'll listen to whatever you say. I didn't mean to hide it from you all these while. I was just afraid that you'd be worried about me. I didn't have any other intentions."

Minerva knew that he had done all these things behind her back because he did not want her to worry about him. She knew that he had decided to do everything on his own because she would have stopped him.

She frowned. "Your life was perfectly fine before this. Why do you suddenly want to regain your memories?"

Everything was done too rashly. She felt that something was not right.

"Did anyone tell you something?" She asked.

He thought of what Beanie had said, and his heart began to feel like it was being pierced by a doubleedged sword.

He couldn't tell this to Minerva. He had to think of something else.

"No, I just think that because I've lost part of my memory, it's unfair to you."

Upon hearing this, she could not help but look at him with a pained expression.

She said, "What's so unfair about that? I have never said anything. What are you fussing about?

Do you know what's the most important thing for me right now?"

"What?"

"It's you," she reached out her hand to grab his arm. After biting her lower lip for a while, she said slowly, "Ever since your incident, I've only been hoping that you remain safe. I used to hope that you'd regain your memories, but that was because you didn't like me. After that... When we got together, I realized that it didn't matter if you remembered everything or not. It wasn't important to me anymore."
