Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 137

The atmosphere in the elevator was very awkward.

Sam was the most uncomfortable. He had to endure the different emotions of the two other people in the elevator, especially the strong energy coming from Maddox.

Fortunately, they reached their floor quickly. Before Sam could react, Maddox had already rolled his wheelchair out by himself.

Without looking back.

Kimberly, who was standing in the corner, raised her head and looked at Maddox's leaving back, feeling very uneasy.

She then walked out slowly. Sam took two steps back and asked her in a whisper, "What's the matter? You guys were still fine yesterday, what happened today?"

Kimberly didn't want to answer his question, so she kept silent.

Sam noticed her silence and gave up. He left her to follow after Maddox.

Kimberly returned to her seat and stared at the jumble of words on the documents on her table. However, Maddox's callous eyes kept appearing in her mind. The disgust and coldness in them were so obvious.

He must have hated her even more now, right?

So weird. She had told him about it. What was there to be annoyed about now? She scolded herself inwardly, "Focus on work!"

Kimberly pulled herself together and focused on her work.

When she was having lunch at noon, Sylvia sent her a text message asking if she was free now. She had something important to tell Kimberly.

Kimberly saw the text and thought of what had happened at lunch with Quill the day before.

Quill was back now, and that meant that the truth had been discovered.

But now... she felt that it wasn't as important anymore. She didn't need to know who the man was.

Thinking of this, Kimberly bit her lower lip and typed a message to reply Sylvia.

"I have to work, I might not have time."

Sylvia replied quickly, "Then I'll ask you out again in two days."

Sylvia wasn't eager to go out either. She didn't know how to tell her thoughts to Kimberly. It would be good if she could hold it off for the time being.

Kimberly replied with a smiley-face emoji.

Then, the two of them did not mention this matter again.

Sylvia held her phone and breathed a sigh of relief. Although she did not tell Kimberly the result, she still had to pretend to ask Quill later.

At this thought, Sylvia changed her clothes and went out.

As soon as Kimberly put down her mobile phone and had a bite of her food, someone sat down in front of her.

"So, you're here. You were easy to find."

Kimberly looked up. It was Vera.

"How did you..." Kimberly was surprised to see her.

"Why? There are no more empty seats in the canteen. Can't I sit here? Look at you. No one dares to sit with you since you bullied those girls in the canteen last time, am I right?"

Vera said arrogantly.

Listening to her, Kimberly couldn't help curling up her lips and asked, "Yes, everyone is afraid of me. Then, why are you sitting in front of me?"

Vera snorted in response, "That's because I'm different and righteous. I'm not afraid of you."

Kimberly was speechless.

Vera glanced around and leaned over suddenly, "Did you start the fight last time?"

Kimberly was stunned for a while and then shook her head.

"No," Kimberly answered.

"Really?" Vera asked again.

"Why would I lie to you?" Kimberly retorted.

The phrase 'mistress' made Kimberly's face turn pale. Seeing this, Vera explained immediately, "I wasn't the one who said it! I heard it from some other people."

Kimberly replied to her question, "No."

She didn't want to be his mistress. Even if she had to leave half a year later, she was still technically his wife.

Even if she left in the future, she would still be his ex-wife.

Thinking of this, Kimberly felt much more comfortable.

"Aren't you the mistress? Then... are you his girlfriend?" Vera asked again.

Kimberly's expression changed, "No, please stop guessing."

Vera shrugged, "Alright."

After the two of them parted ways, Kimberly returned to the Yardley family. When she walked into the house, she happened to meet Benedict. After the two of them greeted each other, Kimberly went upstairs.

When she entered the room, she found that the quilt on her bed was gone.

She glanced around and noticed the quilt had returned to Maddox's bed.

Thus, Kimberly went straight to the quilt, wanting to take it back.

"Put it down."

Maddox came out of the bathroom in his wheelchair and scolded her once he saw what she was doing.

Kimberly stopped and turned her head to glance at Maddox.

"Don't touch my quilt," Maddox warned. "How is this your quilt? You threw my quilt away. Why can't I have this one?" Kimberly retorted.

Hearing this, Maddox sneered, "Is there anything in this house that belongs to you? Don't you know what position you are in?"

Kimberly didn't know what to say.

"Do you have to do this?" Kimberly took a deep breath and asked, staring at him unwaveringly.
