Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 129

Kimberly looked like a newly-trained chef presenting her dishes to a guest. When she saw her guest eating happily, she flashed a meaningful smile.

Juliette felt that the situation was a bit weird no matter how she looked at it.

"What the h*ll is going on?" She thought.

"Sorry, I'm late." Suddenly, a male voice rang unexpectedly.

Juliette and Kimberly paused and looked in the direction of the voice.

Maddox rolled in on his wheelchair, dressed in an ink- black business suit and shrouded in an imposing yet attractive aura. Sam was behind him, pushing his wheelchair tho the front of the crowd.

Seeing Maddox, Kimberly widened her eyes in surprise. Why was he here?

"Isn't he supposed to be in the company now? Besides, he has handed over this task to me," she pondered.

Then, a thought flashed across her mind, "Did I make a mistake?"

Kimberly thought about the incident that had happened twice before, and then she walked to him, her entire body trembling. Kimberly looked like a timid mouse, and her behavior attracted Quill's attention. The man who was tranquil earlier couldn't help but lifted his deep gaze and looked over at Kimberly.

Following her figure, his gaze fell upon Maddox's dark eyes.

Maddox Yardley...

Thinking of the results of his investigation, Quill's deep eyes flashed with a thoughtful look.

Not knowing what he was thinking, a hint of suspicion appeared in Quill's eyes.

Juliette suddenly stood up and said, "President Yardley, if I had known that you would come, I would have..."

Maddox interrupted her with an indifferent look, "You don't have to be so polite. I only came to see how my assistant is handling her task."

His voice was devoid of emotion, and there was no telling of what the man was thinking about.

Juliette looked at Kimberly awkwardly. Kimberly then walked up to Maddox and whispered, "Why are you here?"

The surprised expression on her face was like that of a child. Maddox squinted his long and narrow eyes. Why didn't he know that this woman had such an adorable side?

At this moment, every expression on her face, including her small movements, made Maddox feel very pleased.

And it was getting more and more pleasing to the eye.

F*ck!

Was he feeling like this because they had slept together once? It shouldn't be!

Thinking of this, Maddox was annoyed. He replied in a soft voice that only Kimberly could hear, "I'm here to see if you have hooked up with other men behind my back."

Kimberly was speechless upon hearing this.

For a moment, her face became stiff.

On the other hand, there was a faint smile on Maddox's handsome face. He rolled the wheelchair directly to the table and asked, "Do you mind having an extra person?"

Quill put down the cutlery in his hands with a solemn expression.

"President Yardley, nice to meet you," Quill greeted.

Maddox curled his lips and returned the greeting, "It's rare to meet you."

Kimberly was still standing rooted aside. When she heard their conversation, she came to her senses and turned to look at them.

She went back to her chair and sat down. Everyone sat around awkwardly. A long while later, she realized that only Quill had food on his plate. She had totally forgotten about herself and Juliette.

"I'm sorry. I'll order more dishes!" Kimberly quickly apologized.

They had known each other for so many years. Ever since Sylvia came to the Hanover family, she had been thinking of all kinds of ways to compensate Kimberly. She had always told Kimberly that she could ask for her help if she encountered any problem. However, Kimberly had never asked for money from her, let alone ask for help.

Even the idea of looking for the man was Sylvia's idea.

Therefore, Sylvia was very happy when Kimberly came to her for help this time. Finally, she had asked for something. This was an opportunity for Sylvia to make things up to Kimberly. Now, Sylvia felt much better as the burden in her heart has lessened.

She quickly transferred the money to Kimberly. When Kimberly received the notification of the transfer, she replied gratefully, "Thank you so much."

Sylvia then asked casually, "You haven't told me what you want the money for. Even if it's a long story, I still want to hear it."

Speaking of this, Kimberly smiled and replied, "It truly is a long story. Didn't I say that I would treat your brother to dinner?"

Sylvia's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. She nodded and asked, "Yes, yes. What's wrong?"

"The Yardley Corporation is going to cooperate with the Hanover Corporation, therefore, I invited Quill to lunch today," Kimberly explained.

"What, what did you say?" Sylvia stammered.

As soon as Kimberly finished her words, Sylvia was shocked. Then, Kimberly heard something being knocked over on the other end of the phone. She asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"You and Quill... met?" Sylvia sounded very flustered. Kimberly was puzzled and frowned slightly.

Thinking of something, Kimberly explained quickly, "Don't worry, I didn't disturb Quill's work. We have the chance to meet only because we have to discuss business."

"Where are you now?" Sylvia asked abruptly.

"What?" Kimberly was confused at the sudden question.

"Tell me, where are you? You guys are having a meal, right? Which restaurant is it?" Sylvia didn't even notice the tremble in her own voice as she spoke. Kimberly answered hesitantly,"... We're at the most famous restaurant in North City..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Sylvia hung up the phone after telling her, "Wait for me. I'll be right there!"
