Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

"Since when do you have the right to negotiate with your superior?" Maddox asked impatiently.

Kimberly held her bag tighter and beca little annoyed. She retorted, "Even if I work overtime, I can't sort all this out in a short time. Can I take them back and sort them out at night?" She wanted to compromise.

"No," he said curtly.

Maddox did not give in at all.

Kimberly had no choice. She thought for a moment and decided to meet Sylvia the next day.

Thinking of this, she did not say anything more. Instead, she looked away from Maddox's stubborn eyes and walked towards her seat without saying a word.

Working overtwas not something difficult for her. Kimberly decided to do as he wished.

And so, Kimberly went back to work. On the other hand, Sam was already pushing Maddox away.

After he left, Kimberly took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Sylvia to tell her that she might not be able to leave. She then changed her appointment for another day. Two minutes after she sent the message, Sylvia quickly called her.

"What's going on? I thought you agreed to have dinner tonight? Why did you suddenly change the timing?" Sylvia sounded a little anxious and uneasy.

It took her a lot of effort to decide to tell Kimberly the answer. She was afraid she couldn't keep the secret any longer. She totally did not expect Kimberly to cancel the appointment last minute. Sylvia panicked in an instant.

She wondered if Kimberly had noticed something.

Kimberly looked at the pile of documents in front of her and felt a headache. She said, "I'm sorry, Sylvia. I didn't mean to bail on you. I have something to do today, so I can't make it for dinner tonight." Sylvia asked, "What about tomorrow?" "Tomorrow... I can only let you know tomorrow," replied Kimberly.

Sylvia frowned, "What on earth is going on? Why are you so busy?" Kimberly said helplessly, "I need to work overtime." The other side of the phone remained silent for a while, and then Sylvia said, "Are you alone?" Kimberly looked around and nodded, "Yes." Sylvia then said, "Letaccompany you and bring you dinner then. What do you want to eat?" Hearing this, Kimberly felt a sense of warmth in her heart. She said, "I am not picky, but it will be a waste of tfor you to chere to accompany me, isn't that so?" Sylvia brushed it off and said, "Hey, stop being so polite with me. Wait for me. I'll be there in an hour." After hanging up the phone, Kimberly looked at Sylvia's profile picture on her phone.

Her best friend, Sylvia.

She treated Kimberly so nicely. How could she be anything like what Vera had said? It was impossible. Sylvia would never betray her.

Kimberly put her mobile phone away and continued working.

She didn't know how long she had been working when the elevator door suddenly opened. Sylvia emerged from the corridor with two food boxes in her hands. She shouted, "These are so heavy. Kimberly, cand help me." Kimberly suddenly realized that it had been an hour since Sylvia's phone call.

She quickly got up to help Sylvia carry the food boxes.

Then, Sylvia followed her to the table. She saw the files piled up on Kimberly's desk and she didn't have anywhere to put the food down.

She could not help but say, "D*mn it, what's going on here? Why are there so many documents?" Kimberly's eyes darkened and she whispered, "It's okay. I'll tidy up so that we have space to eat. Giveten minutes." Sylvia watched as Kimberly cleaned up the mess. She glanced around the office and said unconsciously, "Is Young Master Yardley working overttoo?" "No." Kimberly shook her head and said, "I'm probably the only one working overtin the whole company." Sylvia widened her eyes and said, "How unfair? Are you the only one in the whole company who works overtime? Are they relying on you alone to support the company's business?" Kimberly replied, "It has nothing to do with this. I just didn't finish my work." "I don't think you can finish them even if you're given three days!" Sylvia complained angrily, "Your company is too cruel to you." Kimberly had packed up everything on her table. She pulled a chair for Sylvia and asked her to sit down. Then, she opened the food boxes.

Sylvia said, "You like vegetarian dishes from this restaurant, right? I purposely drove twenty minutes to buy them." Kimberly smiled, "Thank you, Sylvia." "Don't mention it. We're sisters," Sylvia said.

The two of them ate for a while. Then, Sylvia suddenly asked her, "You haven't toldwhy you are working overtalone. What's going on?" Kimberly had never hidden any secret from Sylvia. Search the (Find) website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

Hence, she told Sylvia everything.

After hearing what had happened, Sylvia's expression changed slightly.

She asked, "So, he assigned all these to you just because he was angry about the photos?" Kimberly smiled and said in a helpless tone, "Who knows? Maybe he doesn't likeafter all." Speaking of this, Kimberly suddenly sighed and said, "Sylvia, do you have any idea who would do this to me? Someone took those photos on purpose." Sylvia's face turned pale and her heart beat wildly. She hid the nervousness in her eyes, lowered her head and replied casually, "How would I know?" She was going to pick up a piece of meat, but probably because of her nervousness, her utensils fell to the ground.

Sylvia's face changed drastically upon this. Just as she was about to bend down to pick them up, she accidentally knocked her chair over.

Kimberly said with concern, "Sylvia, what's wrong with you? You're so panicky." When Sylvia lowered her head to pick up the utensils, she closed her eyes and tried to convince herself.

Don't panic!

"It's nothing..." Sylvia smiled awkwardly. She got up and wanted to continue eating, but Kimbedym frowned and removed the utensils from her hand. She said, "It's dirty. I'll wash it for you." After that, she left with the utensils. After she left, Sylvia covered her chest with her hands. Her face was pallid and twisted.

She didn't expect that she would lose her composure in front of Kimberly.

Kimberly left for a while. It was enough tfor Sylvia to adjust her state of mind.

Sylvia explained once Kimberly returned, "Kimberly, I didn't eat distance anything at noon today and I just drove for a for a long distance. My hands were a little shaky because I was too hungry. Thank you for your help." Kimberly was slightly stunned. After a moment, she felt touched and looked at her, saying, "Sylvia, you're so nice to me." Sylvia said, "Of course. You're my only good friend! I must treat you well."

After they sat down, Sylvia had no mood to continue eating. She asked her softly, "Kimberly, does this mean that the relationship between you and Young Master Yardley was disturbed by these photos? Is your relationship so poor? Or... is it because of the photos?" Kimberly looked at the food in front of her silently. In fact, she didn't know if there was a moment of peace in her relationship with Maddox previously. Ever since they had slept together, there definitely was a peaceful period.

However, that kind of peace was humiliating.

A man who hated her had changed his temperament after he had sex with her. That was not a good sign.

"I think so," Kimberly nodded after a pause.

Sylvia's eyes lit up when she heard that.

It seemed that it was a good idea to use the photos to alienate them after all.
