Chapter 69
"You're finally feeling afraid?" Seeing the fear in her eyes, Maddox Yardley chuckled. "You don't even have that tiny bit of courage, how did you even dare to marry me on behalf of your sister?"
His smile was evil. He had a cold look in his eyes, and it almost looked inhumane.
Kimberly Shell swallowed her saliva and felt that she could still taste him on her lips. She slowly straightened her back and fixed her eyes on him. "I'm not afraid."
Maddox narrowed his eyes. "You're not afraid?"
"I'm not!" Kimberly said firmly. "Sylvia would never plot against you. I brought her here just as a guest. I will not allow you to think about her otherwise."
The last sentence seemed to touch his heart. His pupils dilated. "You won't allow it?"
"That's right! I won't allow her to do that!"
"Woman, are you jealous?" Maddox chuckled. Kimberly felt that his laugh was like music to his ears. This person in front of her was not only good-looking, but also good at kissing, and his voice was also so good...
Wait, what was she thinking about???"
"I'm not jealous! I just won't give you a chance to hurt Sylvia!"
Hearing her words, Maddox's eyes became colder. Suddenly, he pushed her away. She had not expected him to do that so she stumbled and almost fell to the ground. She looked up and glared at Maddox angrily.
"Do you trust your friend that much? I really don't know if I should feel sad for your stupidity."
Kimberly frowned and wanted to argue with him, but he just turned around and left.
Kimberly was angry, but she couldn't say anything else as he had already left. But she certainly chose to believe Sylvia Hanover. They had both known each other for such a long time, and their relationship was very good.
Besides, how could Sylvia fall in love with Maddox? He said these words just to provoke her!
Kimberly went to look for some clothes to change into. When she was done washing up, she felt a little sleepy, so she lay down on the bed and was ready to sleep.
She didn't know when she fell asleep, but Kimberly seemed to hear someone walking around in the room. She felt that it was a little noisy. Who was it walking around in the middle of the night?
Kimberly quietly opened her eyes and saw a slim figure standing there. It looked a little familiar... However, she could only see the back of that figure.
Her eyelids soon got heavy again. Kimberly subconsciously reached out and covered her ears. Then she closed her eyes and soon fell asleep again.
The next day, when Kimberly was still sleeping, the maid knocked on the door and told her that Miss Hanover had arrived.
Kimberly got out of the quilt. Her mind was still unclear so she couldn't respond immediately. "Who's Miss Hanover?"
The maid blinked her eyes and explained softly, "Second Young Madam, she is the friend whom you brought yesterday. We heard that her last name is Hanover."
Hearing this, Kimberly finally came to her senses. It turned out that Sylvia was here.
I see.
As soon as she finished speaking, Kimberly turned around and walked back into the room. After taking two steps, she felt that something was wrong.
Why did Sylvia come so early in the morning?
However, she still reacted quickly. She turned around and said, "Tell her to wait for me for a while. I'll be down in a minute."
"Okay, Second Young Madam."
After the maid left, Kimberly quickly opened the closet in front of her bed and took out the clothes that she had bought. When she was ready to go into the bathroom to change, she found that Maddox was inside.
Kimberly was a little embarrassed. She couldn't just call him to come out, but she was too embarrassed to change her clothes in the room. In the end, she could only stand there and wait.
Maddox glanced at her and continued to do what he was doing. Kimberly took a deep breath and waited patiently.
She took a glance at the clock.
After a while, Kimberly looked at the time again, and then at Maddox. He hadn't finished washing up yet. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Sometime later, Kimberly raised her head and checked the time yet again. Finally, she couldn't help asking, "Are... are you going to be done soon? Could you... be a little faster?"
Sylvia was waiting for her downstairs.
Maddox acted as if he had not heard her. He continued to wash up slowly as if there was no one else around.
Kimberly bit her lower lip. "Maddox..."
"Don't you know that I'm disabled? How fast do you want me to be?" Maddox suddenly replied.
Kimberly had nothing to say. She surely couldn't criticize him. Did he really need to wash and brush for more than ten minutes? But when her eyes fell on his legs, Kimberly could just swallow back her words.
Forget it. She couldn't argue with a disabled person now, could she?
He had already suffered from mental trauma due to his disability. As his wife, if she attacked his sore spot again, it would be really unreasonable of her.
Thinking of this, Kimberly suppressed her anger and asked in a low voice, "How much more time do you need?"
Maddox sneered and said, "Are you urging me?" Kimberly said, "No, I am just asking!" Maddox looked back at her coldly. "Don't forget your place."
Kimberly was furious. It seemed that she had no chance to use the bathroom. After glaring at him bitterly, Kimberly took the clothes and went back to her bed to sit down.
He usually wouldn't use the bathroom for such a long time, but why did he have to use it for so long today? She just felt that he did it on purpose.
Thinking of this, Kimberly suddenly remembered what Maddox had said to her last night. Her face changed slightly and she didn't have time to think about it. She changed clothes directly at the
bedside. Anyway, no one would come in if the door was shut. If Maddox wanted to use the bathroom for a long time, he could stay however long he wanted.
Kimberly changed her clothes quickly. When she turned around, she saw Maddox sitting in the wheelchair, staring at her. She didn't know when he had come out of the bathroom.
Her eyes unconsciously widened. "When did you come out?"
Maddox's eyes were slightly cold. "Wasn't it you who urged me?"
"..." Kimberly was speechless. When she urged him, he didn't come out. But when she stopped urging him, he came out immediately.
So fast?
"You've seen everything?" After thinking for a while, Kimberly asked. Although her back was facing him, but... she was still buck naked. She didn't know... whether he had seen everything.
As she thought about it, she blushed.
Maddox smiled and stared at her mockingly. "So what if I've seen it?"
Hearing this, Kimberly's eyes widened and she subconsciously twisted her hands together.
So what if he had seen it...
How could he talk like that?
"Maddox, you're so shameless!"
"Shameless?" Maddox turned the wheelchair and came towards her. He raised his eyebrows slightly and grabbed her wrist, trying to pull her over but she resisted. In the end, her hands landed
on his thighs as her body leaned forward towards him.
He pinched her waist with his hand. "Do you want to know what 'shameless' is?"
Kimberly's face changed slightly. She tried to push him away, but she forgot that her hands were on his thighs. She struggled and raised one hand but her other hand slipped...between his legs..
