Was Benedict Yardley speaking for Maddox Yardley? No, why would he? Even though Maddox's attitude toward him was not terrible, but one would not say that he was polite to him. "After all, you didn't know Maddox before you got married. You'll need a lot more tto get along with each other." Benedict said. Kimberly Shell shook her head and clarified, "Benedict, I didn't cry because of him. You don't have to speak for him." Hearing what she said, Benedict was a little surprised and he smiled, "That's good. I thought both of you had a quarrel again." Kimberly did not answer. She just lowered her gaze and took small sips of the soup.

The way she lowered her head with her hair spreading out looked cute. Benedict raised his hand instinctively to pat on her head, but when he was about to touch her head, Benedict's hand paused in the air. He looked at Kimberly, and then at his palm. He then withdrew his hand after a moment.

At this time, Benedict's cell phone suddenly rang. He took out his mobile phone and said, "Take your time. I'll need to take this call." "Okay." Kimberly nodded. Kimberly felt much more comfortable after Benedict left the dining room.

Although Benedict was very gentle to her, Kimberly still felt awkward, since they were not familiar with each other.

She enjoyed the meal quietly after he went out.

After about a minute, Benedict returned and said, "Erica, there is something urgent that I need to attend to in the company. I have to go back first. After you finish eating, the servants will clean them up. I will send a driver to send you back to the Yardley family's hlater." Kimberly was startled when she heard that he had something urgent to attend to in the company. "Today... I haven't asked for leave from the company. I..." "Don't worry. You're not feeling well. Maddox won't be harsh on you. Have a rest." Benedict assured.

After Benedict left, Kimberly finally realized that something was wrong.

She was his sister-in-law and Maddox's wife. How could she stay at Benedict's home? If Maddox knew about this, he would definitely chastise her again.

Moreover, she had to prevent the outsiders from gossiping about Benedict.

Thinking of this, Kimberly quickly finished eating and then got up.

At the stime, the servant cin.

"Miss Shell, have you finished your meal?" the servant asked.

Kimberly's face turned slightly red. "Well, thank you for your hospitality, but I have something urgent to do today. I have to go back first." she said.

"Miss Shell, don't worry. The driver is coming to pick you up." the servant replied.

Kimberly was stunned for a moment and asked, "The driver?" "Yes, Young Master Benedict's driver. He will be sending Young Master Benedict to the company first, and then cback to pick you up." the servant answered.

Kimberly paused and said, "Hmm... No need. It's too troublesome. I can go back by myself. Where is the nearest bus stop?" The servant looked embarrassed and asked, "Miss Shell, don't you need a driver?" Kimberly shook her head. "No, it's convenient forto go back by bus. Please tellwhere the station is." Since Kimberly had insisted so, the servant had no choice but to send her to the bus station in person. "We're here, Miss Shell." "Thank you." Kimberly smiled at her.

The servant was astounded by her smile and shook her head. "You're very welcome, Miss Shell. It's the first tfor Young Master Benedict to bring a girl home. Miss Shell... you must seize the opportunity. I'll have to go now," she asserted.

Before Kimberly could react, the servant left. Kimberly stood still, trying to digest what the servant had said just now.

For a long time, she looked a little embarrassed.

This servant must have misunderstood the relationship between her and Benedict.

At the company.

No one had expected Maddox to hold an urgent meeting all of a sudden. Moreover, Maddox had publicly criticized Vice President Yardley during the meeting. The shareholders were all confused as they had no idea what had happened at all.

Benedict didn't understand why Maddox did that either. Maddox criticized him with an angry vicious expression that was as sharp as knives, as if Benedict had snatched his beloved treasure. Then, Benedict immediately thought of the woman who was eating in his private villa now. He smirked.

As soon as the meeting was over, Benedict approached him.

"Maddox, why are you so angry today?" Benedict asked.

Maddox sneered and said, "It's all because of you, Vice President Yardley. You didn't realize that there was such a big mistake in the contract." Maddox's every action would be substantiated with a reason. There was indeed a mistake in the contract. Maddox was not being unreasonable.

"That's my mistake. I'm sorry." said Benedict.

"However, it seems that you're angrier than usual today." Maddox's eyes were shooting daggers at Benedict. He said, "Brother, do you think that others do not have the right to be angry when you did something wrong?" "That's not true. I'm just guessing the reason you're so angry." Benedict smiled, and he took two steps forward. "I bumped into Erica when I was on my way to the hospital this morning." The veins on Maddox's forehead twitched.

Benedict dared to mention it in front of him. What was his motive? "Erica fainted, so I brought her back to my place," Benedict explained.

As soon as he finished his words, he could feel Maddox exuding a cold aura from his body. The air around them had chilled considerably and the situation was tense. Hence, Benedict paused for a moment, and excitement flashed across his eyes.

Sam Sorrento noticed that Maddox seemed to be at the verge of losing his temper. He hurried forward and said, "Vice President Yardley, you've gone too far. Why didn't you send the Second Young Madam to the hospital when she fainted? Why did you bring her to your place instead?" He spoke politely.

Benedict smiled and said, "She ran away from the hospital. So I suppose that there must be someone whom she doesn't want to see in the M hospital Onperhaps there is something in the hospital that she was trying to escape from. Or, maybe she just doesn't like the hospital. If I sent her back to the hospital, isn't that going to hurt her? Sam, you ought to think thoroughly before taking any actions." "Well, it seems like you have thought about it over and over again. But have you ever considered that she is my woman?" Maddox uttered.

"Maddox, are you saying that I'm supposed to ignore Erica even though she had already fainted?" Benedict asked.

"What are you talking about?" Sam growled as he was a little angry. "If you are sick, you must go to the hospital. Could you not go to the hospital just because you don't like it?" "What were you thinking, Vice President Yardley? You should have given the Young Master a phone call after finding out that the Second Young Madam was unconscious." Sam added.

"You guys seemed quite furious today. Maddox, I just thought that you your legs might be inconvenient, so I didn't call you. You wouldn't blme because of this, would you?" Benedict replied. Maddox sneered, "What do you think?" "I purposely cto the company to ask you to pick her up after work." Benedict replied.

"She can go wherever she likes. Is she worth bringing home?" Maddox asked.

Maddox's words were filled with derision.

Benedict frowned slightly. Why must his brother speak words that he did not mean?

"I didn't want you getting close to her because she is a materialistic woman. Moreover, r, she is the Sedond Young Madam, so I have to avoid the outsiders from gossiping about you and her. I'm going to pick her up, but I didn't say that I care about her." Maddox said. "Maddox?" Benedict uttered.

"Brother, if you like her, you could just tell the Old Master about it and take her home," Maddox added.

There was a moment of silence.

Kimberly had just arrived at the company and asked about their whereabouts. When she walked into the meeting room, she heard the last sentence that Maddox has uttered.

Standing at the door, she saw Maddox inside.

The expression on his face was cold and grim. Those words stabbed her chest mercilessly.
