"Aren't we getting a divorce?" Kimberly took a deep breath and concluded, "Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and get the paperwork done." Kimberly could not care less about Maddox's reaction. She was relieved after speaking her mind.
Perhaps, she longed for a divorce too.
Even if they stuck together, they would never trust each other. They would never be happy by spending the rest of their lives together.
Divorce would be the best choice.
Kimberly raised her head and bit her lower lip. "Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau, Maddox. After settling all the procedures, I won't bother you again." As soon as she raised her head, Kimberly was shocked to find that Maddox was in front of her. Immediately, he reached out his hand to pinch her chin.
"Get a divorce?" Maddox narrowed his eyes dangerously and stared at her closely. He could feel a layer of powder when he pinched her chin.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe texture of the powder made Maddox frown. Back then, he could feel her soft skin whenever he touched her face. Her skin was smooth and flawless but... All he could feel was powder. He was very unhappy. Why did she beclike that? "Yeah." The warmth from his fingers surprised Kimberly. Yet, she cback to her senses and grabbed the cuff of his sleeve. She yanked his hand away and continued flatly, "Sorry to disappoint you but I don' think you can attend a meeting today. Let's go and get done with it." "You're so eager to get rid of us? You're trying to elope with your lover?" Maddox's lips curled mockingly. His eyes were cold.
She did not reply and he continued to stare at her.
A moment later, someone knocked on the door. Sam reminded, "The meeting is about to start." Maddox cto his senses and sneered, "Sure, let's get it done with but I don't have tnow. Wait in the lounge." Maddox maneuvered his wheelchair to the door.
Kimberly caught up with him and asked, "How long will it take? There should be a set time, right?" "Oh, it's only been a few days but you forgot how long meetings would take in Yardley Corporation? Or will you recall it after experiencing it again?" Kimberly was rooted to the spot.
Meetings would take at least two hours. She pondered for a moment and asked, "Are we going to settle the divorce right after the meeting?" He did not answer as he headed for the door.
"Okay, I'll wait for two hours in the lounge." Kimberly turned her heels and went to the lounge without waiting for Maddox to reply. She took a long stride and disappeared from view. Maddox frowned.
That woman... It had only been a few days but she acted like a different person.
"It's tfor the meeting," Sam reminded again.
"I know," Maddox answered impatiently and gave him a cold look.
In the lounge.
Kimberly waited on her own. S~EaRch the (Find)website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Maddox did not have a secretary and Sam followed him into the meeting room. Therefore, she stayed in the lounge and no one entertained her. Fortunately, Kimberly was very familiar with the place. The meeting would last over two hours, hence she decided to make herself comfortable. She got up to make stea in the pantry and read the magazine.
If one were to wait, one hour would be very difficult, let alone two hours.
As twent by, Kimberly felt that it was almost two hours. However, when she checked the ton the mobile phone, she realized that it was just half an hour. Another ninety minutes to go...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKimberly rubbed her eyes and stared at the sofa. Would it be better to take a nap? She got up early, thus she was a little sleepy.
After making up her mind, Kimberly sat on the sofa. She hugged her handbag and closed her eyes. Shortly after, she fell asleep. Tflashed by as she napped. When she opened her eyes again, two hours had passed. Kimberly got up happily. She did not expect herself to wake up on time. She went to find Maddox immediately. As soon as she stepped out of the lounge, she bumped into Sam. Kimberly greeted him swiftly.
"Sam, where is Maddox? Is he done with the meeting?" Sam was looking for her but it felt awkward when he found her. He scratched his head and nodded. "It's over but..." "Then I'll go to him." "Young Madam, please wait." Sam grabbed the corner of her shirt and dragged her back.
Kimberly turned over her shoulder to stare at him in confusion.
"What's wrong?" "The meeting is over, but he just went out." "He went out? What do you mean?" Sam hesitated and replied, "After the meeting, he received a phone call. An emergency cup, so..." "So he just left me?" Everything felt ridiculous to Kimberly. Even in the current situation, he never cared about her and he did not even respect her. "Young Master Yardley didn't mean to leave you. It's an emergency and he had no choice." "Emergency?" Kimberly suddenly asked.
Sam averted his gaze. "Well..."
"It's so important that he even gave up the opportunity to get rid of me?" Kimberly chuckled mockingly and added, "Givethe address. I'll find him on my own. I really want to know when he's going to settle the divorce with me." Sam's face immediately changed. He stopped her and advised, "Young Madam, why don't you wait here for a while? Or I could send you back. After a few days..."
"No need for that. You heard it, Sam. Maddox and I are going through a divorce, so I'll no longer be a part of the Yardley family. Stop callingE that. If anyone overheard you, they'll make fun of me." "Young Madam... You have yet to divorce him, and it's hard to say if you two will..."
"You don't have to make any excuses for him. Even if he refused to div divorce, I'll carry on with it. Sam, so... Pust callKimberly. If you don't feel like it, you can callwhatever you like...
Just stop calling'Young Madam'." "Young Madam..." "Didn't you hear me?" "Okay, I'll drop it." "Givethe address. I'll find him myself." "He did have an emergency, so why don't you go hfor now?" X
