Tflew past so quickly. A week had passed since Kimberly slapped Maddox. Ever since Kimberly admitted that she liked Maddox to Sylvia, she wanted to cherish the tshe had with him. Her heart with mixed emotions gradually calmed down.
Perhaps, from the very beginning, Kimberly had thought too much and demanded too much. That was why many conflicts arose between them.
If she didn't mind anything else and looked at the positive side of things, maybe she and Maddox could be a couple for the rest of their lives.
Kimberly understood that it was better to get along with him rather than haggle over it.
She had cto terms with it, but Maddox was confused.
He was an arrogant person and had always not wanted to admit his true feelings for Kimberly. Or maybe he just didn't know how he felt about her. At first, it was just a fake marriage, a cover. But gradually... it seemed that things had changed.
But he didn't seem to have anything else to say.
He wanted to see her go crazy with jealousy, but after that day, she was as calm as ever. When she woke up, she would greet him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThen, she would go to wash up in the bathroom as if nothing had happened. She did not resist at the company anymore. She worked hard every day, had lunch and then promptly got off work.
After getting off work, she went to the shopping mall to observe the running of the place.
Maddox had witnessed all of this. His brown eyes grew darker and darker.
"Has she gone nuts?" Maddox asked himself.
Sam paused Maddox in his wheelchair from behind. He had no idea what Maddox was talking about. After a while, he slowly whispered, "Young Master Yardley, are you referring to the Miss Shell?" Maddox replied irritably, "Who else would I be talking about?" "Uh...." His sudden flash of irritation really scared Sam.
Sam recalled all the recent events and touched his head in puzzlement, "She looks fine to me. Isn't she always like this? She looks normal." Every day, she talked to Maddox calmly. Even if Maddox tried to frher, she did not get angry at him as she had used to. Whatever the case was, she was extremely calm and patient. Sam felt that it was a good thing.
If the two of them continued to be polite and develop mutual respect for one another, they would slowly develop feelings for each other.
Yes, it was normal.
Maddox's eyes beccolder. It was too normal. It was abnormally normal.
"Normal?" Maddox asked unhappily. Sam was stunned, "Is there something wrong with her?" "You idiot." The conversation was going nowhere. Maddox narrowed his eyes and didn't want to talk to Sam anymore.
Sam thought about it for a long tand voiced his opinion, "Are you angry because she doesn't bicker with you anymore?" Maddox was speechless.
Sam touched his chin and pretended to think. "After all, you guys often bicker a lot. Recently, she hasn't irritated you as often anymore. That's why you find it weird, right?" Maddox snapped, "You can shut up now." Search the (F)indwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Sam couldn't wrap his head around it. However, Maddox had asked him to shut up, and he duly obliged. He was just confused. He wondered if he should bring this up to Kimberly later.
So, when Kimberly went to the pantry to make scoffee, Sam sneaked over and asked her about it.
"Miss Shell, what... happened to you recently?" "What?" Kimberly was stirring the coffee with a faint expression on her face.
"You seem to have changed into another person." When Kimberly heard his words, she froze. Then she curled her lips and said, "Isn't it good? I think it's good to remain calm every day." At the very least, she would no longer have to be upset over things that had nothing to do with her. "Calm?" Sam looked at her. He thought he had seen a different kind of emotion in her cold eyes. For a moment, he didn't know whether he was mistaken. So he asked in a daze, "Then, are you really calm, or is it just an act?" Kimberly retorted, "Sam, what on earth do you want to say?" Sam quickly waved his hand and offered an explanation, "No, I just want to remind you that Young Master Yardley... Actually, he is very different from you. And I want you two to get along, so..." Before Sam could finish his words, Kimberly's eyes widened in surprise. She remembered that although Sam had been polite to her all this while, he did not like her. He had told her to not ask too many questions.
"I still have a lot of work to do, and I have to bring this coffee to Young Master Yardley. I'll excuse myself." Kimberly didn't want to talk to him anymore and excused herself.
After she had left, Sam grabbed his head with a somewhat upset expression on his face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDid he say something wrong? Sam did not like Kimberly before, but after getting to know her, he realized that he actually pitied her. Her ex- husband was a sc*mbag, but she had always put her child first and even decided to sign a contract with Young Master Yardley.
Besides, Sam knew how she had been looking at Young Master Yardley over the past few days.
Kimberly was definitely not the kind of woman they had thought she was. She wasn't greedy and vain. Everything that had happened to Kimberly wasn't her fault. She could only blfate, or perhaps her own blindness.
In the office.
Maddox sat in the wheelchair by the French window and looked at the scenery outside His dark· eyes seemed to be looking downwards, but at a closer look, he was actually daydreaming. Since Kimberly had becnormal, he found that he had becabnormal. Every day, he wanted to deliberately find fault with her, but her reaction made it totally useless.
Someone knocked.
The door was pushed open and Kimberly cin with a cup of coffee. She walked straight to the desk, placed the coffee on the table, and then calmly said, "I made coffee for you. If there's nothing else, I'll go out first." After that, Kimberly went straight out.
Maddox glanced at her and thought that she was being very professional.
"Stay right there." Kimberly stopped and turned around. "Is there anything I can help you with?" "Chere." Kimberly's eyelashes fluttered, but she remained still. After a long while, she asked again, "Is there anything I can do for you? You can just tell me." "I asked you to cover here. Did I ask you to talk nonsense?" Maddox's voice was cold. He narrowed his eyes and stared at her dangerously.
Kimberly looked up at him and saw his ferocious eyes. They were sharp like a predator had caught sight of its e prey. Redently... they had been living quite peacefully, so she didn't expect this... Was he going to lose his temper again? Kimberly had no choice. She slowly walked towards him, saying, "What can I do for you?"
