Kimberly looked in the mirror, lost in her thoughts.

Maybe it was because she had found the earrings and kept on thinking about it. Maybe that was why she had the dream.

She quickly wiped her face dry and went out of the bathroom.

Maddox's side of the bed was already empty by the tshe had woken up. He must have left early in the morning. Kimberly glanced at the clock and realized that it was already working hours. Which meant that...... she was late for work.

Having the realization dawned on her, Kimberly immediately changed into her work clothes and rushed to the company.

She arrived at the office and happened to bump into Maddox and Sam who were on their way to a meeting. Kimberly was coming out of the elevator while they were entering it.

Maddox frowned when he saw her. He stared at her unhappily and said, "Aren't you supposed to be resting at home? What are you doing here?" "Huh?" Kimberly responded in confusion.

"You are injured." Maddox stared at her clothes, his gaze falling on her neck where her wounds were still visible. Suddenly, a thought struck him and he asked, "Have you applied the medicine on the wound today?" She knew that she had forgotten to do so. She instinctively reached out and touched her neck, "No, not yet." "Go hand apply it. Take a rest." Ding- Kimberly quickly walked out of the elevator just as the door was closing. Sam pushed Maddox into the elevator. Maddox then reached out for Kimberly and quickly pulled her into the elevator. "Sam, send her home." Sam was stunned, "But the meeting..." "I'm fine." Kimberly quickly interrupted him, "The injuries are basically skin abrasions. Besides, the ointment that your aunt gave works wonders. The wounds are almost all healed. I can work." Maddox sneered when he heard her. He looked at her mockingly and said, "No matter how good the ointment is, it is still not a miracle medicine. You got injured yesterday and you're tellingthat you are healed? Are you trying to foolor convince yourself of something?" Kimberly replied, "But... it doesn't hurt that much anymore." She looked at him timidly, and there was a trace of grievance and pleading in her cold eyes. She looked wronged and pitiful.

Anyone would pity her when they saw that face.

Maddox frowned even more and thought, "What's wrong with this woman... why is she acting pitiful?" "D*mn it. Sam, get her out of here." Sam was speechless.

He had no choice but to oblige. "Miss Shell, con. I'll send you home." When Kimberly realized that Maddox wasn't looking at her, she spoke up, "Fine, then. I will not work today. I can head hby myself. But first, I want to see how Vera is doing. Is that okay?" Maddox finally looked up at her when he heard her. "Vera?" "Yes. She was there to helpyesterday. I just want to check on her. Is that okay?" Kimberly asked cautiously. Maddox frowned and stared at her with his deep eyes. After a moment, he replied in his deep voice.

"Go. Report back toin half an hour's time." SEARCH THE FIndwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

She questioned, "But don't you have a meeting to attend?" Maddox's gaze was complicated as he replied, "The meeting only lasts half an hour." "Then, I'll go ahead and look for Vera. I'll see you later." The door of the elevator closed. When they arrived at the conference room, Kimberly watched Maddox exit the elevator. Before he had left, he gave her a cold stare, reminding Kimberly about her promise to report back to him in half an hour.

When Kimberly arrived at Vera's department, she found her sitting in front of a computer, bored out of her mind. When Vera heard the footsteps getting closer, she raised her head and saw Kimberly. "Kimberly?" Kimberly immediately got up and walked over to Vera. She reached out to touch Vera, but when she raised her hand, Vera grimaced in pain.

Kimberly's expression also changed. She stepped forward and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" Vera pulled at her lips awkwardly. "I'm fine." "I'm sorry. Were you injured?" Vera replied with mock ease, "I twisted my arm. The doctor said it's not a big deal. It'll probably hurt for a few days. I'm fine." "Are you really fine?" Kimberly looked at her worriedly and said, "I'm sorry that I got you injured as well. And yesterday afternoon..." "You left with Young Master Yardley, right? I know. You don't have to apologize to me. Sam toldthat your injuries were quite serious." Right. Kimberly almost forgot that Sam was guarding the emergency room door at that time.

Benedict and Vera would have definitely seen him by the tthey got back. Vera must have asked Sam about her.

"I'm fine." Vera shrugged indifferently, but she had a bitter smile on her face, "I just feel bad for Vice President Yardley. The look on his face when he realized that you weren't there was unbearable. He was so disappointed. It was like he lost his soul." Kimberly interrupted her, "Don't mention that." "You really have no mercy for him, do you? Just because you don't like him, you don't care for his feelings, no matter how devastated he is. Even I felt sorry for him. I'm surprised that you don't feel anything at all." Vera said.

Kimberly lowered her head and looked at the ground thoughtfully.

She explained, "Being indifferent is the best way to respond, isn't it? I am not his girlfriend. If I respond to his feelings, wouldn't it hurt him more instead?" "You're right. By the way, let's find a quiet place to talk. Cwith me." Then, Vera pulled Kimberly into her office and gently closed the door, "Yesterday, I heard that Bianca was fine. Both mother and baby are doing well. Is it true?" Kimberly nodded, "Yes."

"Does this mean that the incident has nothing to do with us?" Vera was more concerned about her ownm wellbeing. The day before, she was so angry that she wanted to kill Bianca on the spot. After all, Bianca and those women had beaten them up pretty badly. However, now that Vera had calmed down, she finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

Vera had thought that... Bianca had lost so much blood. The baby definitely couldn't make it.

Who would have thought...

"Well, the incident should have nothing to do with us. But... I am pretty sure they won't let it go son se gosen easily." Kimberly had seen Jonathan's expression from the day before. He would never let this go that easily. "Huh? Do they still want to make trouble? But the woman is fine!" Kimberly smiled faintly and replied, "I'm just speculating. He might not pursue this matter, but don't worry about it. I won't let you get involved." Vera frowned, "What are you talking about? I'm not only worried about myself, but also you. I will not let you bear all the responsibility!" "Well, don't worry about this. I just cto see how you are doing. I have to report back to Maddox soon." Vera was curious and asked, "What? Were you happy when he took you off your feet yesterday?" Speaking of the incident the day before, Kimberly's face turned a little red out of embarrassment. "Don't mention it. I really have to leave soon."

"Hey, don't leave just yet. I want to tell you something. Remember that day when we went shopping and Young Master Yardley tagged along with us? I asked you to put on the earrings, right? They looked good on you, so I wanted to sneak back to the store to get it for you. However, when I got there, do you know what the store assistant said? She said that a man had already bought the earrings. Can you guess who?" Peter Grill CH/F-PSE X
