Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

"So what?" Maddox's eyes were as dark as ink. His eyes exuded a thick and cold sensation. The menacing sensation only increased exponentially as he spoke to her. Kimberly stood there, holding the quilt in one hand and staring at him.

Her seemingly calm eyes froze gradually like a lake in the winter. After a while, Kimberly released her hand and put the quilt back. She whispered, "Nothing, as long as you are happy." After that, she turned around and walked to the make-shift bed she had made on the floor.

After thinking for a while, she got up and walked out again.

Maddox was so pissed at her indifference that the veins on his forehead throbbed.

When Kimberly went to the maid to ask for a quilt, the maid gave her a look of dilemma. "I'm sorry, Second Young Madam, it's not that we don't want to provide a quilt for you. It's just that we've washed all the quilts today, and they're all wet now. We can't give one to you yet," the maid explained.

Hearing this, Kimberly frowned slightly and asked, "Not even one?" The maid shook her head, her face pale.

"Really?" Kimberly did not believe it and raised her eyebrows suspiciously. The maid was so frightened that she bent down and bowed her head, saying, "I'm sorry, Second Young Madam. This is an order from the Second Young Master. Please don't make things difficult for us." Kimberly had expected this. She shrugged and said, "Well, in that case, I won't force you." After that, she turned around and left. Several of the other maids whispered to each other.

"What happened to the Second Young Madam and the Second Young Master? Weren't they so close to each other just a few days ago? Why are they sleeping in separate beds again today?" An older maid said, "They're a newlywed couple. It's better to make a scene, they'll bond better." "Really? I think it's a big deal. If the Second Young Master doesn't give Second Young Madam the quilt, isn't she going to freeze to death at night?" "Silly girl, you are too young to understand anything. The Second Young Master is forcing her to sleep with him. He has a quilt, right?" "Wow, I see... the Second Young Master... How cunning!" However, Kimberly did not hear a single word of the maids' gossips. When she returned to the room, she saw Maddox looking at her with an icy gaze. She was frustrated.

"Did you know that I would return empty-handed?" Kimberly asked.

Maddox pursed his lips silently.

"Maddox, it's fine. You can take the quilt. But why did you involve the maids? Why did you tell them not to givea quilt?" She asked again.

He glanced at her coldly, snorted and averted his eyes away from her.

Kimberly was furious, but she couldn't do anything about it.

All the members of the Yardley family listened to his orders and would not listen to her. She wouldn't be able to resist it even if he had wanted her to die.

She snapped, "Well, if you don't want to give it to me, then don't." It wasn't the end of the world. She rolled up the covers she made on the floor. She could sleep out in the cold for one night. The next morning, she would go and buy a new quilt after work. A new quilt wouldn't cost much, she could still afford it. She didn't need to beg for anyone's help.

Later that night, it was as cool as freezing water.

As the days passed, autumn had arrived.

Kimberly slept on the quilt on the floor. Half of the quilt was folded over her, covering her body. She was wearing thick pajamas, so there wasn't much difference. She didn't feel particularly cold. It was just that she couldn't stretch her body.

At first, Kimberly didn't feel comfortable, but she soon got used to it. She closed her eyes and fell asleep shortly after.

Kimberly didn't know that after she had fallen asleep, a tall figure cto her. When he noticed that she was really asleep, he snorted softly. "You're such a stupid woman. Would you rather curl up to sleep than submit to me?" He thought.

Although Kimberly had a good dream, her waist and back were sore when she woke up the next morning. All the bones in her body were stiff, and she could hardly stretch out her limbs. She could only stand up and stretch her body after curling up for the entire night.

When Kimberly saw the pair of dark eyes, she withdrew her stretched arms instantly and went to the bathroom to wash up.

When she cback, Maddox was no longer in the room.

Kimberly took out a small calendar book from her bag and looked at it. She realized that she had been in the Yardley family's house for nearly a month.

As twent by, the baby in her belly was two months old. Seven months to go before her due date. "Just get through it," Kimberly said in her heart.

As soon as Kimberly started her work, she received an official contract deal with the Hanover Corporation. The other party would cto the company in person.

As one of the people in charge of this project, Kimberly had done a lot of preparation. She would use all her research later, just in case.

Suddenly, she received news that the other party was downstairs. Just as she was getting up from her desk with documents in hand, Maddox and Sam also walked out of the office. Since they had to work together anyway, she just waited for him.

Unexpectedly, the two of them stopped in front of her, and then Sam walked up to Kimberly.

"Assistant Shell, give it to me," Sam said.

Kimberly was stunned. "What?" Sam said awkwardly, "Have you prepared all the materials for this project?" Kimberly nodded as she replied, "Yes, I have. These..." She handed him the materials with a smile. "I'll explain it to President Hanover later. There should be no problem with this cooperation."

"No need." Sam coughed softly and lowered his voice, "You don't have to attend this meeting."

Kimberly was a little startled. She m froze on the spot. The content is on novelenglish.net! "I don't have to attend?" Kimberly echoed.

Why? She had been preparing all these for a long time. Didn't Maddox give her the project? Why did he take it back now? Sam pursed his lips and did not explain anything to Kimberly. He just gestured towards Maddox.

Kimberly knew that Maddox had given the order. She stepped forward and asked, "Why? Why can't I go to the meeting room?" Maddox lifted his eyelids lazily. His dark eyes were filled with disdain. He asked lightly, "Who do you think you are to enter the meeting room? What's wrong? Do you miss the days when you served tea?" Wher he was talking about serving tea, Kimberly's face turned pale.

When she first arrived at the Yardley family, she was forced to be Maddox's assistant. Then, he had humiliated her by asking her to serve him tea in the meeting room.

He wanted her to wimp out when faced with difficulty.

"I don't mind giving you another chance if you miss it so much," Maddox added.

Kimberly clenched her fists.

If she had any dignity, she shouldn't go.

However, she had sorted all the materials by herself. Why should she stay outside? It was better to go there and serve tea. This way, she could at least hear what they were talking about. Maybe she could explain sstuff too.

Thinking of this, Kimberly looked up at Maddox stubbornly.

"Okay, Young Master Yardley, please giveanother chance to serve tea," Kimberly uttered.

Maddox sneered, "Remember, you're a mute in the meeting room. You don't have the right to speak."
