Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

"He's not here yet. Sit down first. It's tfor dinner. Let's order sfood." Kimberly sat down and looked at the clock. It was half-past six right then. There was still one and a half hours to eight o'clock. Was there enough tfor her to rush to the banquet? Seeing Kimberly behaving in that way, Vera could not help but ask, "Are you in a hurry? Do you have any matters you need to attend to?" Kimberly told Vera what had happened just then.

"Why didn't you tell me? I would've let you go if I knew about this. It's okay forto be here alone." "There's no point talking about it anymore. I'm here now." "How could there be no point for us to discuss it? Why don't you change into the gown and go to the banquet now? It would be bad if this affects your relationship with him."

"It's okay. I've told him that I'll be there later. The banquet will start at eight o'clock. I'll have dinner here until seven o'clock. There's still enough tforto rush over." Hearing that, Vera was relieved. She said, "Alright, let's order first. Vice President Yardley said that he will arrive in ten minutes. He asked us to order whatever we want." "Okay," Kimberly nodded and ordered a few dishes. She was not in the mood at all. She was dwelling on her thoughts about Maddox right then and didn't care about anything else at the moment. She could not forget what Maddox had told her before she left.

Ten minutes later, Benedict came. He looked like he had dressed up for the occasion. He was wearing a white suit with a bow tie, and he attracted the attention of many women as soon as he entered the restaurant.

Kimberly and Vera heard the discussion of the women from the next table.

"Who is this man? He's so handsome." "Stop looking at him. There's no doubt that such a perfect man is already in a relationship. He will not be in a relationship with you no matter how long you stare at him." "Hey, which one of those two women is his girlfriend?" "It should be the one who looks younger. She looks a little younger and more beautiful." "Nonsense! It must be the one in the blue dress. Her temperament fits the man's temperament very well. They're a perfect match." Kimberly was speechless.

She disliked people gossiping and she really wanted to interrupt them to tell them that neither she nor Vera were Benedict's girlfriends.

Vera whispered, "Do those people have any decency? We can hear them talking." Benedict must have heard them as well since even Kimberly and Vera could hear them. Benedict was sitting opposite them. He glanced at Vera's face and then fixed his gaze on Kimberly's face, saying, "Sorry I'm late. There's a traffic jam along the way." "It's okay," Vera waved her hand quickly and said with a smile whereas Kimberly remained indifferent.

Those people at the neighboring table began to talk again.

"Look, that young woman is waving to him. I told you she is his girlfriend." "Are you an idiot? The man is obviously looking at the young woman in the blue dress. Also, there's no need for a couple to wave their hands to each other. It only matters that they are comfortable enough with each other." Kimberly could only pretend that she didn't hear it. She couldn't control what others wanted to say.

The three of them remained silent for a while. All of a sudden, Kimberly asked, "Benedict, how is it? Did you manage to get sinformation?" Benedict looked at Kimberly gently and said softly, "It's dinner tnow. Let's talk about this after dinner." "But..." Kimberly was a little anxious. Vera nudged her from under the table as soon as she was about to say something. She looked at Vera and realized that she was too anxious. Benedict was there to help her. He didn't owe her anything. Therefore, it'd be better for her to wait a little longer to ask about it. After all, Benedict rushed over in a traffic jam. He must not have eaten anything yet.

It was better to finish dinner with him first.

Kimberly did not say anything. She ate dinner with them quietly. Those people at the neighbouring table next to them would gossip about them occasionally.

All of a sudden, Benedict placed a piece of meat into Kimberly's bowl. Kimberly was stunned. An exclamation cfrom the neighboring table before she could react, "I told you that I didn't guess wrongly. Tha guy got sfood for the young woman in the blue dress. They're indeed a couple." The other person said discontentedly, "How does this prove that they're a couple? Perhaps this is just hospitality." "You're good at arguing!" Looking at the meat in front of her, Kimberly felt that Benedict seemed to have done this on purpose to let them know who his girlfriend was because he could hear the conversation at the neighboring table clearly as well.

Although Kimberly knew that she was going too far, she couldn't help but think that... Benedict did it on purpose to let others misunderstand the situation.

Kimberly did not eat the meat given by Benedict at all.

Benedict didn't feel embarrassed. He remained calm. Kimberly ignored what those people at the neighboring table were gossiping about.

Vera looked at the tand becanxious. She took the initiative to ask, "Vice President Yardley, how's it going with the matter that I asked you to investigate?" Benedict raised his hand to look at the time. Then, he looked at Kimberly. Kimberly seemed to be very anxious from the the cin until then.

He could roughly guess the reason.

Thinking of that, Benedict smiled and said softly, "Don't worry. I've gathered the information. I asked my secretary to organize it forbefore I came. So, you may have to wait for a while. What's up? Do you have anything else to do tonight?"

Hearing that, Vera's facial expression changed. She looked at Kimberly helplessly. She spoke before Kimberly could say anything e else? "Nothing. However, it's not early now.

We don't want to keep you so late.' "It's okay. I'm off work. I'm free tonight," Benedict said. Then, he suddenly thought of something and said, "I'll send you back later if it's too late." Vera said, "Kimberly's house is quite far away from here. Can you tell us first about the information?" "This is a very complicated matter. It's quite hard to verbalize it. Anyway... let's just wait until my secretary is here." "Why don't we let Kimberly leave first and I'll wait here for the secretary?" Benedict understood what was going on when he heard that. He looked at Kimberly and asked, "Do you have anything else to do tonight?"

Kimberly did not deny it anymore since Benedict had asked her directly. She nodded and said, "Yea, I dand have something to do at 8 o'clock... En I'm sorry." "Eight o'clock?" Benedict repeated her words. All of a sudden, he thought of something and asked, "Are you going to the banquet?" Kimberly was a little surprised. She asked, "Do you know about the banquet as well?" "It's such a coincidence, I am invited to that banquet too. I would have forgotten about it if you didn't tell me...

"Wow! Then both of you can go over together!" Vera said excitedly. She was not afraid of delaying Kimberly anymore because Benedict would need to go to the banquet as well.
