Hearing what he had just said, Kimberly Shell shot a glance at him in an instant, biting her lower lip while explaining, "I will wash it for you." "How are you going to wash it?" Maddox Yardley glimpsed at her mockingly, "Are you going to wash it with your hands?" Kimberly paused and blinked. "Of course not. I'll send the suit jacket to the dry cleaner." Although her family was not a rich family, she knew that the suit could not be washed, especially this kind of expensive suit jackets.
"Oh, you're not that ignorant after all." Maddox sneered. "But do you think I'll wear it after you clean it?" he asked.
Kimberly pursed her lips and said nothing.
Maddox continued to humiliate her, "I think it's disgusting since you've worn the suit jacket before, so I won't wear it even if you've clean it. I'll make an analogy to make it simple. It's just like a materialistic woman. No matter how innocent she pretends to be, she's still a sl*t. Do you understand?" Kimberly was unbothered at first, but after hearing his words, she could not stand it anymore. "Isn't it just a suit jacket? Did I ask you to put it on me? You put the suit jacket onvoluntarily. If you think it's dirty, why are you touchingunder my clothes in the conference room? Why don't you wash your hands then?" Maddox was rendered speechless.
Sam Sorrento thought to himself, "What the f*ck, that's too much information." Touching her under her clothes? Sam thought as he looked Kimberly up and down. He wanted to give her a thumb-up so bad.
Maddox didn't expect that she would disclose all these in front of Sam, so he was at a loss of words for a moment. His mind went blank, so he could only manage to reply, "How do you know that I didn't wash them? Kimberly echoed what he had said earlier, "It doesn't matter. Your hands will never be washed clean, so you'd better chop them off!" Maddox was at a loss for words.
Sam gasped, his heart filled with bewilderment. Assistant Shell... was too amazing! Kimberly was so pissed off. She took the suit jacket back for him out of kindness. She even offered to send the suit jacket for dry cleaning. He could just choose not to wear it, but he ridiculed her instead. Hence, Kimberly retaliated immediately.
The atmosphere in the lift was tense. Kimberly's fighting spirit had not wavered, and Maddox was still hostile. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Kimberly with a terrifying glance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSuch an intimidating gaze sent a shiver down Kimberly's spine, but she still stood straight and stared into Maddox's eyes, like a fighter who would never surrender.
After a while, Maddox sneered with anger, "You're really a shameless woman." "Ding," Kimberly glared at him and quickly walked out of the lift.
Sam realized that Kimberly looked quite frightening when she lost her temper. Then he glanced at Maddox. Despite his fluctuating mood, he was obviously stunned by Kimberly. All of a sudden, Sam felt good about it. Everyone knew that the Second Young Master of the Yardley family was temperamental and sharp-tongued despite being disabled. He was mean to both men or women. If any woman attempted to flirt with Maddox at the banquet, they would be either crying or running away after being humiliated by Maddox.
Kimberly usually looked soft and vulnerable. He thought that she would be easily bullied, so he did not expect that Kimberly's argument was right on the point when they were engaged in a quarrel. But there was a problem now.
Sam cup to Maddox coyly and asked, "Young Master, do you needto prepare a knife for you?" There was a moment of silence.
"Get out!" Maddox yelled and kicked him.
After Kimberly left the company, she went directly to the bus station. When she was waiting for the bus, a silver- grey Bentley stopped in front of her. The car window was rolled down. It was Benedict Yardley. "Erica," he greeted.
"Benedict?" Kimberly was surprised so she asked, "Why are you here?" "Are you heading home? Get in the car. I'll send you home." Benedict replied.
Taking Benedict's car to go back to the Yardley family residence? Maddox would definitely find out about this. When that happens, Maddox would say that she was sl*tty again. Therefore, Kimberly gently but persistently declined Benedict's offer, "It's okay, Benedict. I'm used to taking the bus." Benedict didn't give up and said with a smile, "The bus is crowded, so it's more convenient for you to take my car." Kimberly said, "It's really not necessary. Benedict, you can go back first." Benedict queried, "Erica, are you afraid that people would gossip about us if you take my car home?" Kimberly stuttered, "I'm sorry, Benedict, I..." "Or are you blamingfor disclosing what we did in the morning?" he rejoined. Speaking of this, Benedict's expression turned melancholic and the gentle smile on his face faded. "Just forget about it, in that case..." he said.
As they were in the bus station, so the people nearby heard the conversation between Kimberly and Benedict. They looked at Kimberly with suspense and curiosity, making her feel embarrassed. Besides, Benedict's response was making Kimberly helpless.
"Benedict." Kimberly uttered.
"Hurry up and get in the car." Benedict said.
Kimberly had no choice but to get in the car.
After getting into Benedict's car, Kimberly began to worry. This station was nearby the company. Even m though there were several different routes to go back to the Yardley family residence, she didn't know if Maddox would pass by and see them. However, she should not worried about this now. She should be concerned about what would happen when she reached home.
Thinking of this, Kimberly immediately said, "Benedict, could you dropoff at the intersection nearest to the house?" Upon hearing what she said, Benedict's hand on the wheel froze. After a while, he looked at her with a smile and asked, "Erica, are you that ashamed of me?" Kimberly's mouth twitched. It was not because she was ashamed of him. It was purely because of a certain horrible person.
Maddox lost his temper and tore her clothes when he saw her wearing the clothes that was prepared by Benedict's servants in the morning. Even though Maddox did find a set of new clothes for her to wear later on.
She was frightened by Maddox.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What if he tears my clothes off tonight..." Kimberly couldn't assure what Maddox would do to her. "Well, I don't want to put you in a difficult position. I will drop you at the intersection." Benedict said in a considerate way.
Only then did Kimberly feel a little relieved. "Thank you, Benedict." she said.
"By the way, were the both of you... always like this?" Benedict suddenly asked.
His question stunned Kimberly. She did not know how to answer.
By right, she and Maddox was supposed to have a transactional marriage. They would divorce half a swasa year later, but this was a secret F between both of them so there was no reason to tell Benedict. "Erica, don't misunderstand me. I mean...
did he always treat you that badly?" Benedict clarified.
Kimberly lowered her gaze and smiled, "It doesn't matter if he treatswell or not. He has always been bad-tempered, hasn't he? Are you askingto understand and forgive Q him? Yes, but I'm still a little worried about you." Benedict sighed and he said, "Perhaps Grandpa's decision was a mistake. I haven't told you yet.
In fact, Maddox and I are not biological brothers." Kimberly was startled for a moment. "You two aren't biological brothers?" she gasped. No wonder Maddox's attitude towards Benedict had always been so bad and that his interactions with the members of the Yardley family were awkward.
