Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Kimberly's eyes widened in fear. She looked at the ashtray being thrown towards her.

All of a sudden, someone rushed into the study room and pulled her away.

Bang! The ashtray hit the spot where she was standing just now. It shattered into several pieces.

Kimberly trembled at the loud piercing sound.

She looked at Old Master Yardley in disbelief.

Old Master Yardley had just said that Maddox Yardley had no sense of propriety in his actions. He also said that he was a ruthless person.

Kimberly felt that these were more accurate in describing Old Master Yardley.

"Grandpa, Erica is a straightforward person. She misunderstood your words." Kimberly realized that the person who had pulled her away was none other than Benedict Yardley.

"Erica, Grandpa and I are just worried about Maddox's health. After all, it's very hard for him to manage such a big company alone. Besides, you must have already known what kind of person he is after staying with him for a few days. He does not really know how to draw the line. Grandpa is not asking you to keep an eye on Maddox. We're just helping him since the company will belong to him in the future." Kimberly bit her lower lip and said nothing.

Old Master Yardley snorted and said angrily, "I thought that the daughter of the Shell family is a smart person. I didn't expect that she could say such thing. My reputation will be ruined if someone heard what she just said. Why do I have such a granddaughter-in-law?" "Grandpa, please don't be angry. I'll talk to her." Benedict pulled Kimberly out of the study room.

Kimberly was still frightened and had yet to cback to her senses. She just followed Benedict without saying anything.

They stopped walking when they arrived at a quiet place. Benedict turned around and looked at Kimberly gently. "Erica, you must be frightened. Are you injured?" Benedict stepped forward and wanted to touch her shoulder.

However, Kimberly took a step back immediately.

Benedict's hand was left hanging in the air awkwardly for a long time. Kimberly lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry..." Benedict smiled and pulled his hand back.

He said, "It's okay. Please don't worry about what happened today. Grandpa's words didn't mean anything else. Grandpa is estranged from Maddox. So, he can't ask him about a lot of things directly. He can only know more about him from you. Do you understand what I'm trying to say?" Kimberly nodded her head. "Perhaps you need stto digest all of these. I know your mind is in a mess now. You should head home. Once you've calmed down, you'll be able to understand that Grandpa is just looking out for Maddox." "Well, I'll leave first then." Kimberly said. Then, she turned around and left.

She could feel that Benedict's eyes were still watching her as she walked away.

The feeling disappeared when she turned into another corridor.

Kimberly stopped walking. Her eyes fell on the ground as she tried to gather her thoughts.

She didn't expect the situation in the Yardley family to be so complicated. She was not a stupid person. She understood clearly what Old Master Yardley was trying to say.

On the surface, he said that he was concerned about Maddox. But in actual fact, he wanted Kimberly to keep an eye on Maddox.

Benedict was no different. He looked like a gentleman with his gentle smile and well-mannered speech, but Kimberly realized that he was on the sside as Old Master Yardley. He even pretended to be a good person to persuade Kimberly just now.

The thought sent a shiver down Kimberly's spine.

"Can we really not judge a book by its cover?" She thought.

This applied to Jonathan Lowell as well.

He kept saying that he was not interested in sex and asked Kimberly for her forgiveness. In the end, he brought his mistress to their hand chased her out...

He had cheated on Kimberly for two years.

Humans were the scariest creatures in this world.

All of a sudden, Kimberly did not hate Maddox that much anymore.

He was in the ssituation as her. They were being ostracized by their own family.

Kimberly stopped when she turned into another corridor. She saw two people in front of her.

Sam was standing behind the wheelchair, whereas Maddox was sitting in his wheelchair, staring at her coldly.

If it were before, Kimberly would just turn around and leave. However, after knowing that he was shunned by his ΝΟ grandfather and brother, Kimberly couldn't help but feel pity towards Maddox. Unfortunately, she still couldn't forget the fact that Maddox had forced her to get an abortion. Therefore, she turned around and left.

"Stop!" Maddox shouted.

Kimberly stopped and turned back to look at him grumpily. She responded, "Yes?" "As my assistant, how could you be absent for two days for no reason? Do you not want your job anymore?"

Upon hearing this, Kimberly suddenly remembered what Old Master as not Yardley had just said. She was not there to be his assistant. Old Master Yardley just needed her to keep an eye on him. Thinking about this, Kimberly said, "You don't need an assistant, right? Well, I'm going to save you the trouble. I'm not going to be your assistant anymore." "Do you think you can cand leave the company as you please?" Kimberly frowned and asked, "What do you wantto do then?"

Sam said angrily, "You're really such an ungrateful woman. Young, my Young Master Yardley still cares about you. He even lets you keep the b*stard in your tummy. How could you be so..." "Shut up!" Maddox scolded him. Sam becsilent in a split second.

"What did you just say?" Kimberly looked at them in disbelief.
