Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Minerva was just about to wrap the measuring tape around his waist. When she heard him, she paused for a moment.

She sneered inwardly and held the tape tightly.

Hate? What, did he think that she would hate him? Was it worth hating him? "Mr. Yardley, you must be kidding me. You're my client. How can I hate you?" Minerva pretended that she didn't understand his question and replied to him casually.

However, Maddox's frown deepened into a scowl.

"Is that so?" His voice was calm. "Can you be more gentle?" It was only then that Minerva noticed that she held the measuring tape around Maddox's waist overly tight and she had nearly made his waist out of shape.

"I'm so sorry!" She suddenly retracted her hand and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Minerva's eyelids drooped. She could not help biting her lower lip in annoyance. How could she be in such a mess? The air fell into an awkward silence. Minerva remembered his measurements, then put away the measuring tape and took a step back. She picked up the notebook and jotted down all of it. Maddox stood behind her and looked at her petite figure as she squatted down on the ground.

"If you don't hate me, why do you treatas a stranger?" As she wrote, her pen warped but she remained silent. After that, she put away the notebook and stood up, facing Maddox.

"I have completed my task. Mr. Yardley, thank you for your cooperation today. I have something to attend to, so I'll make a move first." After saying that, Minerva turned around and prepared to leave.

He had his grip tightened around Minerva's wrist out of the blue. She was rooted to the spot.

What was he planning to do? "Do you hateso much that you don't even want to stay withlonger?" His voice held a hint of sarcasm. Was she mistaken about it? "You must be joking. Today is the weekend. I really have something else to do." She struggled for a moment, trying to break free from him.

However, Maddox had tightened his grip on her wrist. It was so strong that Minerva frowned in pain and turned around.

"If it wasn't for the weekend and you have smatters to deal with, would you be willing to stay withfor a while?" Minerva was rendered speechless.

Maddox, what on earth was he trying to do? He said that he was married, but why did he look so sad now? Was he trying to deceive her? Did he want to get her and abandon her once again? Minerva looked indifferent at the thought of it. She tried to break free from him, but to not avail. She said helplessly, "Mr. Yardley, I really have smatters to deal with. Please letgo." "No." Maddox acted childishly for the first time. He gave her an injured look, asking, "Will you listen to my explanation?" What? Minerva was taken aback. Listen to his explanation? What did he have to explain? Was it the incident that happened five years ago? She went white. After a moment, Minerva smiled awkwardly, saying, "Mr. Yardley, I don't think... you have anything to explain to me." "Is that so?" Maddox sneered, "It looks like you don't want to listen to my explanation, but what if I don't want to let you go?" Minerva was at a loss for words.

She struggled and frowned as she shot Maddox a dirty look.

Maddox was gazing intensely at her, as if he would suck her soul in. She merely retreated with all her might, avoiding his gaze completely.

Maddox seemed to be mad at her. He pulled her over forcefully and pressed her against the soft couch behind him.

"Ah!" Minerva let out a cry as her body was pressed beneath his. Maddox slowly lowered his head towards her.

Slap! Minerva reached out and slapped him in the face without hesitation. Sear*ch the FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

She directly gave him a slap in the face.

When Minerva saw that his lips were about to touch hers, she immediately recalled that he was a married man and gave him a hard slap right away.

They fell silent for a brief moment. Maddox was utterly dumbfounded. He stared at Minerva with his pursed lips. Maybe he was angry and agitated, but his chest was constantly undulating.

"Maddox, I don't plan to bring this up. But do you still remember what you said yesterday? Now that you're treatingin such a manner. Don't tellthat you don't feel guilty at all. Do you think that you are right by doing so to her and me?" Maddox answered, "What?" What did he say the day before? Maddox stared at her with confusion.

Minerva laughed mockingly. "You toldthat you were married! Since you're married, please don't cross the line." Upon hearing her words, Maddox was stupefied.

After a while, he couldn't resist laughing scornfully.

"So that's what you're talking about. I can't do so because I'm married?" Minerva exclaimed, "You!" When did he becso shameless? Before she could speak, Maddox raised an eyebrow and teased her, "Or are you jealous?" Minerva replied, "Jealous? Mr. Yardley, don't you think too highly of yourself?"

She pushed him away strenuously and stood up before she patted her If collar. "I hope this is the last time. If you remain disrespectful in future, I would rather breach the contract than cooperate with you." Minerva grabbed her bag and left at once. As he looked at her back, Maddox was lost in thought.

He thought carefully about what she had just said not long ago and gradually cto his senses.

Oh, that foolish woman.

Did she think that he was married to another woman and responded in such a manner? As soon as he thought about it, he stretched out his hand and touched his face.

It was really painful.

She slapped him with all her might. But... she was angry with him.

Maddox assumed that Minerva was jealous and slapped him hard in the face.

All of a sudden, Maddox thought of something else and squinted his eyes.

"How cthat woman doesn't know that we haven't divorced yet? We are stilegally husband and wife."

Maddox had always thought that she knew about it from the moment they met. But without expectation... Idoking at how she behaved that day, she probably didn't know about it. Who was hiding it from her? Minerva cout from the villa after half an hour.

The people outside treated her politely.

"Miss Shelly, take care. Please cagain." "Be careful on your way back." While Minerva was walking in her high heels, she paused, feeling angry.
