Malraux

Hello all, I need some help:
I have to use "Malraux" (great French writer) in the possessive case.
Sould it be
1. "Malraux' "
or
2. "Malraux's"
?
Clue: The final "x" is not pronounced in French

Thanks in advance!

Malraux's. If the x is not pronounced we must use "s". EX: Papadeaux's broiled redfish is among the most requested dishes.
