Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 116

Kimberly lowered her eyes and did not notice the expression on Maddox's face. She only heard the criticism in his words.

He was probably blaming her.

After all, who would expect his assistant to fight with the staff and make a mess in the canteen?

Kimberly heard his wheelchair rolling towards her. Then, she saw a pair of slender legs in front of her. Before she could react, a pair of hands tightened around her waist and held her.

Her eyes widened.

Maddox had rolled his wheelchair in front of her and held her in his arms.

While Kimberly was still stunned, he pinched her chin. He lifted her head and forcibly made her look into his cold eyes.

"Do you know what I'm angry about?" He asked.

The cold masculine aura from his body surrounded her. Kimberly could not think straight and shook her head.

"I already know the whole story," Maddox said.

"What? You knew everything? Then why did you ask me..." Kimberly was shocked.

Maddox said, "I just wanted to know what you would say. Oh, and I didn't expect you to leave out all the important points. Have you not suffered enough? Don't you know how to shout when you feel pain?"

As soon as Maddox finished speaking, he flicked her forehead hard with his fingers.

Kimberly cried out in pain and reached out to cover her forehead.

"Turns out you can still feel pain," Maddox's voice was cold. He sneered.

Kimberly covered her forehead and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Don't fight with other people next time," Maddox said. His deep gaze fell on her face.

There were several scratches on her fair face. Maddox looked at them as if they had scratched his heart.

"Okay," Kimberly responded.

She didn't want to fight with others, but she really couldn't control herself at that time.

She heard a sigh. The hand on her chin moved to the back of her head, pressing her onto his chest. She leaned on his chest, not knowing what was going on.

Why did she have a feeling that... Maddox seemed to care about her?

Was she mistaken?

While she was thinking, his chest vibrated. Maddox opened his mouth and said, "I will..."

Knock knock—

At this time, someone knocked on the door of the office.

"Young Master Yardley, the doctor is here!"

Sam's voice came from outside the office.

Hearing this, Kimberly looked up at Maddox immediately. He stared at her with a complicated gaze, saying, "Get up and let the doctor check if you are injured."

After that, he held her up gently.

Kimberly followed his movements and stood up. "Come in," Maddox said.

Sam pushed the door open and invited the doctor in.

He had found a female doctor for her. Maddox then ushered the two of them to go straight to the lounge.

Kimberly followed the doctor into the lounge. The female doctor was near in her forties. She looked quite gentle. She also had a faint smile on her face. "Miss Shell, please take off your shirt. I'll take a look at your wound," she said.

Kimberly nodded obediently. Just as she was about to take off her shirt, she thought of something and paused again.

No way...

The marks left by Maddox were still on her body. If the doctor saw them, wouldn't that be... embarrassing?

Thinking of this, Kimberly stopped taking off her shirt. "Doctor, my body is fine. Please just help me check the wound on my face," she said. It was just a burn on her shoulder. She would go to the pharmacy to buy some ointments to apply when she got home after work.

Maddox looked at her face and said in a rare calm tone, "Thank you, Auntie."

Kimberly paused for a moment and thought, "She is Maddox's auntie?"

All of a sudden, Kimberly's face turned redder. If she was Maddox's auntie, wouldn't she have seen all the marks on her body and thought of her...

Thinking of this, Kimberly's ears and face became hot. "If you're really grateful, come visit me more often. Maddox, don't stay in the company all day long." The woman who took off the mask was Maddox's auntie, his mother's sister, Abigail Stark.

Abigail was about eight years younger than Maddox's mother. She was almost forty years old that year. However, she looked like she was only in her thirties.

Besides, her smile was so kind. She was very approachable.

Kimberly had this feeling since Abigail was treating her wound for her. She didn't expect that... she was Maddox's auntie.

Abigail looked back at Kimberly and cast her a meaningful gaze.

"I heard about what Maddox said about you. Although this is a family marriage, you guys are a real couple. Both of you must protect the child well," Abigail reminded her.

Hearing what she said, Kimberly moved her lips as if she wanted to explain something. But at this time, Maddox said, "Auntie, we know."

"You too. As a man, you should protect your woman. How could she be so seriously injured? Her back is badly burned. If you didn't bring her to me in time, she might have a scar. Do you know that?" Abigail asked in slight reprimand.

Maddox frowned slightly and said, "Auntie, it was an accident."

He didn't expect that Kimberly would fight with the other women in the company. It had never crossed his mind.

"So what? It's still your fault. You didn't stop it from happening," Abigail frowned.

Maddox said, "...It's my fault."

Abigail nodded with satisfaction and said, "You still have room for improvement. I have work to do, so I'll leave first."

After Abigail left, Kimberly looked at Maddox with a complicated expression.

She said, "You didn't tell your auntie that the child is..."
