Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 46

"I had something to do." Kimberly Shell told herself that she could not disclose it no matter what! It was Old Master Yardley's order. If she exposed it, it would be equivalent to betraying the Old Master, which would make the relationship between the Old Master and the Second Young Master worse.

Thinking of this, Kimberly pursed her lips and denied.

"Ha." Maddox Yardley narrowed his eyes intimidatingly and stared at her. "I'll give you one last chance. Tell me the truth!"

His voice was cold and ruthless. Greatly shocked, Kimberly bit her lower lip and said, "I just went out to buy something. Besides, my one month's salary has been deducted, and I did not reject it. Is there any need for the Young Master to know what I was doing?"

Maddox paused and glared at her with his long and narrow eyes. "Say that again."

Kimberly grabbed her mobile phone and retreated outside. As she stepped backward, she said, "I don't want to!"

Maddox frowned, "Where are you going to?"

"Staying further away from you!"

After that, Kimberly turned around and ran out.

She quickly ran out of the room and prepared to go look for the maid. She looked back as she walked. When she saw that Maddox did not catch up with her, Kimberly breathed a sigh of relief. Then she took out her mobile phone and looked at the screen. Sylvia had sent her a text.

Sylvia: "I'm heading over now. Wait for my good news."

It seemed that Sylvia was going to get the button back. Kimberly felt that she didn't have to worry about it so much.

She stayed outside for a long time, waiting for Sylvia's call.

After waiting for a long time, Sylvia finally called her, "It's done. You can rest assured now."

Kimberly was a little excited and asked in a low voice, "Did you get it?"

"Yes, I've got it. Should I take a photo of it for you?"

"No, as long as you've got the button. But... how did you do it? Wouldn't you be discovered?"

"Don't worry. How could you doubt my abilities? Kimberly, you should rest. By the way, you should know what to do if people start questioning you, right? Anyway, I have other things to attend to, so I'll hang up now!"

After that, Sylvia hung up the phone. Kimberly stood still, a little confused. Sylvia had always been reliable, so this matter should have come to an end, right?

While she was thinking, the maid who had cleaned up the room ran over, panting.

"Second Young Madam." Kimberly put away her phone and composed herself.

"What's wrong?"

The maid was in a panic. She bit her lower lip and said, "Second Young Madam, I... I'm sorry! Rainie just told me that she accidentally lost your button."

Upon hearing what she said, Kimberly frowned, and asked "What do you mean? She lost the button?"

"On the way back from the store, she accidentally got into a car crash. Everything was scattered all over the ground. She got back all her stuff, except for the button..."

A car crash...

Kimberly's eyelids twitched, and she took a step forward. "A car accident? Was she injured?"

The maid was startled and she stammered, "No, no, she's alright. But everything fell to the ground."

Listening to her words, Kimberly heaved a sigh of relief.

Sylvia really scared Kimberly to death. She must be crazy to have carried out such a plan!

"Second Young Madam, Rainie is not injured, but she lost your button. What should we do..." The maid did not forget about the maid who was fired. It was said that she was fired because she spilled the milk on the Second Young Madam. When she left, she said a lot of bad stuff about Kimberly.

Therefore, to the maids, the Second Young Madam was a really scary person, and they didn't want to make her angry. "Forget it." Kimberly frowned and thought for a long time before she relaxed again. "It's just a button. Since we can't find it anymore, then I'll just pretend that I'd lost it."

"But... isn't that button very important to you?"

"It is very important, but your safety is also very important. I can't hold you responsible just for a button, can I? It's okay if you can't find it, but don't mention this button again in the future, otherwise... I may think of it again."

The maid nodded immediately, "Don't worry, I won't mention it again. I'll tell Rainie too. Thank you for your understanding, Second Young Madam!"

"I'll be going then."

The next day.

Early in the morning, Kimberly was asked to go to the study room of Old Master Yardley.

"Any updates on the matter that I'd asked you to do yesterday?"

Kimberly answered nervously, "The other party refused to see me when they heard that I'm from the Yardley family."

Hearing what she said, Old Master Yardley frowned and said, "What the hell? Don't they want to collaborate with Yardley Family anymore?"

Kimberly did not answer. Old Master Yardley thought for a moment and said, "They must be angry with us because we were the ones who broke the collaboration with them. Erica, send a gift to that kid from the Lovis Family for me and tell him that Maddox is not yet taking over the Yardley Corporation."

Hearing this, Kimberly bit her lower lip and did not speak.

"Do you hear me?"

Old Master Yardley's voice suddenly became serious, startling her. She nodded quickly.

"Understood, Old Master."

This time, Kimberly did not dare to go out without permission, for fear that her salary would be deducted again. If that happened, she would really become penniless.

Therefore, Kimberly went to the office to get Maddox's approval.

Unexpectedly, Maddox refused her coldly without even looking at her.

"No way."

Kimberly was a little puzzled. "No? Why?"

Maddox ignored her and his eyes fell on the document before him. He did not intend to answer her.

Kimberly bit her lower lip and took two steps forward. "Young Master Yardley, I really have something very important to do, so I need to go out for a while."

"And I said no."

"Why?"

"Get out!"

"Maddox Yardley!"

Boom! Maddox was enraged. He put down the document in his hand and hit the table with his palm. There was a loud sound.

The sound was abrupt in the quiet office.

Kimberly compromised in the end and left the office.

She was extremely furious when she came out of the office. The man and his grandfather were really infuriating her! It was really difficult for her to be in between them.

What should she do now? Kimberly was distressed. Should she listen to the Old Master and bring along a gift? But she did not have much savings, and Chandler Lovis was the President of Lovis Enterprises. She might not be able to afford to buy a suitable gift for him.

However, if she did not give him a gift, she would not be able to explain it to the Old Master when she goes home at night.

At the thought of this, Kimberly was going crazy.

After thinking for a while, she got up again and went to the office.

This time, as soon as she knocked on the door, Maddox's angry roar came from inside.

"Get the hell out of here!"

Once again, she ended up with failure!

Forget it, there was no other way. Kimberly had to wait until she got off work to go to Lovis Enterprises. After making up her mind, Kimberly did not disturb Maddox anymore.

When she finally got off work, Kimberly swiftly packed up her things and went out of the office. She took a bus to Lovis Enterprises as fast as possible.

"Young Master Yardley, Assistant Shell left as soon as she got off work."
