NovelEnglishAs soon as Kimberly said that, the smile on Vera's lips froze. She looked at Kimberly awkwardly and said, "So.... you didn't cto make amends with me? Then, my gift..." "I don't know. If I didn't chere, maybe... I would never find out that you prepareda gift. I'm sorry..." Vera stood still, her eyes turning red. She wiped her eyes hard and then laughed at herself, "How silly am I? To you, I'm just someone who likes to talk bad about other people, right? In the beginning, I treated you badly, and I was arrogant. But I realized that I had misjudged you. So, I wanted you to be my friend. But now... it looks like I am forcing you, right?" "No." Kimberly shook her head in denial. "You're very kind to me. Our fight... I was too petty. Let's forget about it." Vera looked at her with grievance and did not speak. Kimberly held back her tears and asked, "Are you willing to make amends?" Vera did not speak for a long time. Kimberly lowered her eyes and muttered, "Well, if you don't want to, I..." "Kimberly, where is your sincerity? I've always been wronged because of our fight. You said you wanted to make peace with me, yet you didn't even try to coax me? You don't even want to wait for my answer. Are you sure you want to make amends?" Kimberly stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at her. Vera pouted, her eyes already bright red. "You have to treatto lunch." Kimberly nodded, "Fine, I can do that." "Also, you have to go shopping withafter work to make up for the past few days." "Deal." After Kimberly agreed to her request, Vera finally broke into laughter. Kimberly was also helpless. Vera was simple-minded. She was just like a kid making her parents promise them certain childish things. Kimberly thought to herself, "Anyway, she is just a child. She means well. Whatever she says in the future, I'll just take it lightly." After the two of them had reconciled, they headed towards the canteen for lunch. Vera was back to her usual self. Within a few hours of making peace with Kimberly, she had already started gossiping. She began to ask Kimberly about her and Maddox. "How is it going with you and Young Master Yardley? That woman did not have any impact on your relationship, did it?" Kimberly was enjoying her soup. After thinking for a while, she suddenly raised her head and asked her, "Are you really interested in what happened between us?" Vera nodded vigorously, "Of course! I'm your friend. It's my job to ask you about your life." "Well then, if I tell you that I and Young Master Yardley have no feelings for each other, will you believe it?" Vera stared blankly at her for a long time, her eyes wide open. "Then why did you marry him? He is disabled. I thought you liked him very much, that was why... you decided to marry him." Kimberly frowned when she heard the word 'disabled' and corrected her, "Don't just throw that word 'disabled' around." At first, Vera was stunned, but then she curled her lips. "I thought you had no feelings for him? Why are you defending him?" Speaking of this, Vera glanced at her and continued, "Is it because you like him, but he does not like you?" Kimberly had no choice but to remain silent. Vera had guessed correctly. She did not defend herself, nor did she say anything else. She just looked at her calmly. Vera instantly understood, but at the stime, she was in a bad mood, "No way! Is it true? You like him but he does not have any feelings for you?" "Keep your voice down," Kimberly reminded her. Only then did Vera realize what was going on. She nodded and lowered her voice. "Then... if he doesn't like you, what are you doing to do? If he doesn't like you, it will be more dangerous. Oh my God, then Sylvia..." Kimberly cut her off, "Don't worry about it. Nobody can fully control their emotions. Besides, our relationship is also very complicated. You don't have to worry about these things in the future." Vera curled her lips and said, "Okay. I'll just listen to you." When it was tto leave work, Kimberly wanted to quickly pack her things up and immediately look for Vera. She had promised to go shopping with her. However, she had totally forgotten that she had promised to go hwith Maddox. While on the way to the bus station with Vera, a familiar car stopped in front of them. The window of the car wound down slowly, revealing Maddox's handsbut emotionless face. Vera widened her eyes in shock when she saw Maddox in front of them. Since she had becKimberly's friend, many weird things had happened around her. The last tshe met Vice President Yardley in the mall, he had personally sent her home. Then, the last tshe took part in the anniversary banquet, she saw Maddox take Kimberly away. This time, Maddox had appeared in front of her again. "Didn't I tell you to wait forafter work?" Maddox's voice was s heading to?" asked Sam. Vera told him their destination. Kimberly listened to their conversation from the back seat. She looked at Maddox awkwardly. She asked hesitantly, "Are... you coming with us?" X
