Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 301

Sam handed the box to Kimberly. Kimberly reached out her hand to take it. She found that there was a gown inside it after opening it.

"Put it on and accompany me to the banquet."

Kimberly was stunned. Then, she said, "But, I have something else to do. I promised to eat out with Vera."

Upon hearing that, Maddox frowned slightly. "You've spent a lot of time with her in these two days. Can't you accompany me to the banquet? You can postpone your date with her."

"But I have already promised her..." Kimberly said. However, it was mainly because she had something very important to do that night. Why would Maddox ask her to go to the banquet now? It would not be good for Kimberly to reject Maddox directly. Therefore, she said, "Why don't you go first? I'll go to the banquet after meeting with Vera."

"Is it that important?" Maddox, who had been silent, asked.

"What?" Kimberly asked in confusion.

"I'm asking, is Vera more important than me?" Maddox repeated.

Kimberly froze on the spot, staring blankly at Maddox. What kind of question was that? Kimberly felt a little guilty when she saw Maddox staring at herself. He seemed to be able to see through Kimberly.

Could it be that... he already knew something?

Thinking of that, Kimberly wanted to say something, but she couldn't spit her words out.

After a long time, she opened her mouth and said, "It's not like that. It's just that... I've already made an appointment with her."

"Can't you just keep me company for once?" Maddox frowned and said. His domineering tone made Kimberly uncomfortable.

Thinking of the person she was going to meet that night, she made up her mind and said, "No way, I can't go with you today. I will go to the banquet with you next time."

Upon hearing that, Maddox could not help but smile sarcastically, saying, "Next time, huh?"

He didn't say anything anymore. All of a sudden, after staring at Kimberly for a long time, he said, "Go ahead then."

Kimberly did not know what to say.

Was that all? Kimberly felt that Maddox had let her go too easily. Nevertheless, she realized that it was almost time for her to meet Vera when she looked at the time.

She wanted to find out the truth first and if there was still time left when she was done, she could go to the banquet to find Maddox.

"I'll go first then."

After saying that, Kimberly walked past Maddox. All of a sudden, Maddox grabbed her fair wrist and stopped her from moving forward.

"Is it a must for you to meet Vera?"

Kimberly lowered her head and looked at Maddox's hand on her wrist. Maddox's fingers were long and slender, and his joints were prominent. Feeling the warmth radiating from his hand, Kimberly nodded with difficulty and said, "Yes, I will stay there for a while... I will go and find you if it ends early."

Kimberly could feel that Maddox's grip got tighter as soon as she finished speaking, but he soon let go of her. Kimberly lowered her head because she wanted to look at Maddox's facial expression. However, Maddox turned the wheelchair and left quickly.

Seeing that Maddox left quickly, Kimberly was stunned. She looked at Sam, who was standing at the side, and asked.

"What's wrong with him?"

Sam was a little gloomy. He wanted to say something, but he shook his head in the end and said, "Nothing."

Kimberly asked, "Really?"

"Young Master Yardley hopes that you can attend the banquet with him tonight."

George was silent for a while; he was probably estimating the time. After a while, he said, "Yup, we're almost there. We will arrive in around 10 minutes."

Vera nodded her head and said after hearing what George said, "Okay, I'll wait for you for ten more minutes. I'll go in first. You can come in and find me later."

"Alright."

After hanging up the phone, Kimberly found that Sam hadn't replied to her text message yet. Perhaps he was busy?

Thinking of that, she put her phone away.

Kimberly saw Vera sitting in the corner as soon as she entered the restaurant. There were not many people in there at that hour. George followed behind Kimberly and walked in.

Thinking of what conversation she was going to have today, Kimberly stopped, looked at George and said, "George, you can go back first." "But aren't you going to rush over to the banquet later? I know the way. I can wait for you here."

"It's okay. There's plenty of time left. Don't worry."

"I'm afraid to keep you waiting for a long time. Also, it's getting late. I can grab a taxi to go there later."

George looked at the time and felt that what Kimberly had said was reasonable. Therefore, he nodded and left.

Kimberly went into the restaurant to find Vera after George had left.

Vera was probably bored as she kept looking at her mobile phone. She looked around when it was almost time and finally saw Kimberly coming in. Then, she got up and waved her arms, shouting, "Kimberly, I'm here!"

Kimberly walked over and then sat down opposite of Vera.

"Where is Benedict?"
