Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 41

Sylvia's voice was quite sharp, so when her voice erupted from the mobile phone, it sounded quite loud in the quiet room.

Perhaps because she was feeling guilty, Kimberly subconsciously covered the mobile phone with her hand as she looked in the direction of the bathroom. She didn't see him, but only the sound of running water.

They wouldn't hear her talking here, right?

Thinking of this, Kimberly coughed softly and placed the phone beside her ear. Then she nodded and said, "Well, did you see the message I sent you just now?"

"Yes, you said you found a button. And it might belong to that man, right?"

"Well, have you found anything about it recently?"

"No, you didn't give me any related information. Even if I try to look for that man, it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Kimberly, since you have something related to him, you should take a picture of the button and send it to me." Sylvia added.

"Okay."

Sylvia sighed from the other side of the phone, "How have you been lately? Is Maddox still making things difficult for you?"

"No, we have already made an agreement. I will stay in the Yardley family for half a year, and I will leave after that."

"This man seems quite tricky. Your belly will show in half a year, but it's going to be winter by then. You are skinny, so you could cover it up by wearing loose clothes."

"Yeah."

"Alright, hurry and send the picture to me."

After hanging up the phone, Kimberly turned on the phone camera and put the golden button on her white palm. She then took a photo of it. As soon as she sent the photo to Sylvia, she heard a sound behind her.

Kimberly was shocked and she jumped. The button in her hand fell on the ground and then rolled underneath Maddox's bed.

Her eyes widened as she watched the button roll, but she did not dare to get up to get it.

She turned around and saw that Sam Sorrento was pushing Maddox Yardley out of the bathroom.

Kimberly bit her lower lip and her face turned pale.

Maddox glanced at her inadvertently when he came out. His eyes narrowed when he saw her sitting on the bed with a guilty look on her face. She had turned pale and she was holding her phone tightly. He fixed his eyes at her.

Under his watchful gaze, Kimberly was so nervous that beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

She couldn't hide her thoughts, and they were shown all over her face. Maddox's eyes and mind were so sharp that he could see through her. However, he couldn't be bothered about it.

"Young Master, I shall excuse myself now."

"Sure."

After Sam left, Maddox rolled his wheelchair to the window and took a business magazine in his hand.

Kimberly looked at him absent-mindedly.

After taking a shower, Maddox wore a navy blue casual suit. The dark color suit made him look calm, yet colder and unapproachable. His jawlines were perfect when he lowered his head. Coupled with his tightly-pursed thin lips and his black and deep eyes, he just seemed like a character perfectly outlined by a great painter.

"Am I that good looking?"

As she was staring at him, she heard a cold voice ask.

Kimberly came back to her senses and realized that Maddox had raised his head. His dark eyes just happened to meet her gaze. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

She was caught staring at him. It was incredibly awkward.

Kimberly coughed and moved her eyes away, and her face was blushing.

After a while, she came to her senses again. No, it was not the time to think about these things. What she should think about was the button. It rolled under Maddox's bed. How was she going to get it back?

Kimberly didn't dare to take a shower, for fear that Maddox would discover the button. However, she shouldn't be afraid of him even if he found out.

But Kimberly just felt inexplicably guilty!

As long as Maddox was still awake, Kimberly would just sit there next to him. She subconsciously started staring at him again.

After a while, Maddox started getting impatient under her stare. With a snap, he closed the magazine in his hand, startling Kimberly.

She quickly looked away.

Maddox wheeled himself towards her.

When Kimberly heard the sound, she stood up suddenly.

"I, I, I'm going to take a shower."

Kimberly rushed into the bathroom before he could approach her.

At this time, she couldn't care about the button anymore. She only knew that Maddox's gaze was too scary, so she could only hide in the bathroom.

Feeling frustrated, she turned on the shower. Kimberly took out her mobile phone and stared at the screen. Sylvia had sent her an OK emoji, which meant that she should wait patiently for the next update. She put the mobile phone aside and began to shower.

Kimberly thought, "I should bathe slowly. When I'm done with my bath, Maddox should already be asleep. Then I could get the button under his bed without him finding out about it."

After having a rough plan in her mind, Kimberly continued showering.

However, after she finished washing, Kimberly realized that she was in a predicament far worse than having the button roll under Maddox's bed.

She had forgotten to bring her clothes in!

She ran too fast just now, so she didn't even take her clothes in with her. Her previous clothes were all wet and couldn't be worn at all. Kimberly stood there and looked at them for a long time. Then

she found that there was a bath towel.

She had no choice but to take the bath towel and wrap it around her. However, she still afraid to go out.

Maddox already had a bad impression of her.

If she stepped out of the bathroom clad in a bath towel, he would definitely think that she was seducing him again.

So Kimberly waited in the bathroom for nearly half an hour. Just as she was almost falling asleep in there, she thought that Maddox was probably asleep by now, hence she sneaked out of the bathroom.

It was quiet outside, and there was no one.

Maddox was probably already asleep, right?

Kimberly tiptoed forward.

"Miss-Married-Twice."

A cold voice came from the side. Kimberly suddenly stopped, and her eyes widened incredulously.

Maddox Yardley... "Weren't... weren't you asleep?"

"Ha." Maddox's thin lips curled into a mocking smile, and said, "Did you lose your memory? If you don't help me, how could I sleep?"

Kimberly didn't know what to say.

After looking at him awkwardly for a long time, Kimberly pointed to herself and said, "Help you? Get on the bed?"

"What do you think?" Maddox raised his eyebrows and examined her with an evil look.

The water droplets on her fair skin post- shower made her look even more breathtaking. Her cheeks were flushed, probably because she had been steaming in the bathroom for a long time. Even her beautiful eyes were glistening.

The bath towel covered the essential parts of her body, but she looked even more attractive like that.

Her long and slender legs were at his eye level, as she stood there awkwardly. She either didn't expect that she would bump into him, or she might have planned it on purpose.

"Come here," Maddox said.

Kimberly instinctively swallowed her saliva.

She was not wearing any clothes. Did he just ask her to go over?

"Give me a moment!" Kimberly stepped forward and wanted to change her clothes, but she didn't expect that Maddox was persistent.

"I said come here. Are you deaf?"
