Female Novel
Chapter 117
Before Kimberly could finish speaking, Maddox glanced at her coldly, "What nonsense are youtalking about? Do you think that I will tell my auntie about this?"
Hearing this, Kimberly lowered her eyes slowly.
Yes, she was not pregnant with Maddox's child. This kind of thing could make him ashamed. Howcould he speak of it?
Kimberly felt her heart sink little by little.
"Since I'm fine now, I'll go out first," she whispered.
Maddox had no reason to ask her to stay. He nodded and responded, "Okay."
Kimberly returned to her work. Her eyes looked dull.
What was she thinking about?
Kimberly calmed her mind and concentrated on her work. Soon, it was time to get off work.
As soon as the time was up, her phone rang. Sylvia was texting her.
"Kimberly, I parked my car in front of a supermarket not far from your company. You can come overlater."
"Okay."
Kimberly replied to her text and began to pack up, then she went downstairs with her bag.
When she passed by Maddox and Sam who were coming out of the office, she paused and went upto Maddox to inform him, "Urn... I won't go home with you tonight."
Maddox raised his eyebrows.
Kimberly explained quickly, "I have to find Sylvia."
"She's looking for that woman again?" Maddox thought and frowned slightly. "Is she your friend?"He asked.
Kimberly nodded quickly and answered, "Yes, we've known each other for a long time. I'm reallylooking for her, not someone else."
She was worried that Maddox would think that she was going to find another man, so she explainedherself in advance.
Maddox stared at her. For some reason, her last sentence sounded very "melodious". She wasafraid that he would misunderstand her. This meant that she still cared about his opinion.
"Okay." Maddox pursed his lips and said, "Sam will follow you."
Kimberly's expression changed slightly. "No, Sam has to send you home. It's not convenient for youto move around by yourself," she said.
Maddox raised his lips and looked at her with his sharp eyes, "Are you so worried about me?"
Kimberly's face blushed slightly. She ignored his question and muttered, "That's it, I'll go first."
Then, she ran off.
When she went downstairs, the crowd stepped back when they saw her. They thought she was ahorrible person, probably because of what had happened at noon.
Kimberly quickened her pace and walked towards the supermarket. As expected, she saw Sylvia'scar immediately. She walked over rapidly and knocked on the car window, but Sylvia was in a daze.
She ignored her like she was thinking of something important.
Kimberly felt strange. She knocked on the window again and shouted,
"Sylvia?"
Sylvia still ignored her. Kimberly wondered what she was thinking about.
Kimberly had to pat harder on the window and call her name even louder for Sylvia to be broughtback to reality and notice that Kimberly was there. She lowered the window down quickly.
"Kimberly, you're here," Sylvia said.
"What's wrong with you? What are you thinking about? I've been here for a long while," Kimberlysmiled sweetly at her and went to the other side of the car.
Sylvia suddenly said, "Don't get in the car. Let's go to the third floor of the supermarket. There's adessert shop there."
Dessert shop...
Kimberly's face changed slightly as soon as she heard the phrase 'dessert'.
"Don't worry. It doesn't just sell desserts. They have other things," Sylvia said. Then, she pulledKimberly into the shopping mall.
Kimberly followed her to the dessert shop on the third floor. Sylvia ordered a lot of delicious foodwhile Kimberly ordered a glass of fresh juice.
After that, they sat down together.
"I'm sorry. I wanted to visit you in the hospital that day, but you were still asleep, so I didn't disturbyou," Sylvia apologized.
Kimberly was stunned. She only saw Maddox when she woke up. She did not know that Sylvia hadalso been there. She was a little surprised.
"Were you there that day?" Kimberly asked.
"That's right." Sylvia nodded, "My best friend was admitted to the hospital. Of course I had to go andvisit."
Kimberly smiled and replied, "I know. You treat me the best."
Sylvia said, "In fact, I have a very important thing to tell you. That's why I asked you out today."
After that, Sylvia glanced around and whispered, "We have contacted the designer."
The waitress happened to bring the glass of juice over to their table at that moment. Kimberly wasshocked when she heard this. She stood up abruptly and happened to bump into the waitress.novelbin
Bang!
"Ah, I'm sorry!"
The glass fell to the ground and broke into pieces. The watermelon juice spilled all over Kimberly'sbody. The waitress thought it was her fault and kept apologizing, "Sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it."
Sylvia's expression changed. She stood up and accused, "What's wrong with you? Look at whatyou've done."
Kimberly grabbed Sylvia and said to the waitress in a low voice, "It doesn't matter. It's not your fault,I stood up too quickly. But can you give me some paper towels?"
The waitress stood in a daze for a long time before she nodded. She turned around and went tograb some paper towels. When she came back, the manager followed her and kept apologizing toKimberly.
"Miss, I'm really sorry. This waitress is new to here and not very sensible yet. She has ruined yourdress. How about this? As an apology, all the food that you guys ordered will be free of charge."
Maddox had bought Kimberly's dress. The manager had sharp eyes and could tell instantly that thedress was very valuable.
Moreover, Sylvia was wearing a lot of luxurious brands. The manager did not dare to offend themand had to come over to apologize.
Sylvia blinked and asked incredulously, "You want to get rid of us with just a little food? My friend'sdress is ruined!"
The manager's face changed slightly and asked, "Then, Miss, what do you think we should do?"
"I'm sorry!" The waitress stood up quickly and apologized to Kimberly again. "I didn't do it onpurpose. Please forgive me this time." Kimberly was wiping the watermelon stains on her dress witha paper towel. When she heard this, she raised her head and said, "I've said that It was my fault.Sylvia, don't make things difficult for them."
Sylvia snorted, "I was venting the anger for you. The waitress can't even hold the tray well. Theythink they can settle it by just apologizing and giving us free desserts. How much does their dessertworth? Humph."
"I'm really sorry," the waitress apologized again.
"It's alright. You can go and do your work first," Kimberly said to them.
"Thank you very much." The waitress took a deep look at Kimberly, her eyes were full of gratitude.
After they left, Sylvia couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you? Your dress is ruined. Are yougoing to let it go just like that?"
"It was my fault." Kimberly explained softly, "I was a little excited just now and bumped into her. Ieven broke their glass."
Sylvia snorted and ignored her.
But Sylvia thought of something and asked with a smile, "Why are you so excited all of a sudden? Isit because you're close to finding that man?"
Kimberly responded,"... Don't talk nonsense."
Sylvia narrowed her eyes and asked, "In fact, you can't stand Maddox and want to leave him assoon as possible, right?"
She couldn't stand Maddox and wanted to leave him?
