Chapter 15

"Miss Shell, according to the results of the examination, your uterus wall is very thin. Therefore, youwill suffer massive blood loss from the abortion and it could be life-threatening if the condition isserious. It will also be impossible for you to get pregnant for the rest of your life after the abortion.So, we don't recommend that you get an abortion at all," the doctor said.

Upon hearing this, Kimberly Shell frowned. Sylvia Hanover, who was standing beside her, wasshocked as well. She said, "She can't get an abortion?"

The doctor sighed softly and said, "Yes, I won't recommend it. Please think about it properly."

After leaving the hospital, Sylvia frowned and said, "What should you do if you can't get anabortion? Oh my God! This is so annoying!"

Kimberly said, "I've no idea."

"Let me send you back first," Sylvia said.

Kimberly nodded her head. Right after that, she shook her head and said, "Please send me to thecompany."

When they arrived at Yardley Corporation, Sylvia said, "You go ahead. I'll try to get a second opinionfrom other doctors."novelbin

"Thank you, Sylvia. I'll make a move first," Kimberly said. The receptionists remembered Kimberlybecause she was there before. So, she had no trouble going straight to the president's office on thetop floor.

The door of the office was left open. When she was about to knock the door, Kimberly heardsomeone talking inside.

"The last time I asked you to find that woman, you brought her to me instead. And now, how dareyou bring me a woman who has already given birth? Sam, am I not strict enough? Or are you notpaying attention to your work?"

Maddox Yardley, who was sitting in front of his desk, scolded. He tapped the desk with his slenderfingers and had a domineering demeanour.

Sam Sorrento was standing in front of the desk with his head bowed as he got scolded.

Kimberly hid behind the door when she saw this.

"Young Master Yardley, I really didn't mean to get it wrong. You gave me too little information. So, Ididn't want to let any possible woman slip away." Sam felt that he had been wronged. He had beenworking with Maddox for a long time and had always been very efficient at his job.

However, Sam's task now was to find a woman. Since they had no information about this woman,finding her was no easy task.

"Did you just say that I didn't give you enough information? Well, don't you know how to gatherinformation?" Maddox sneered. He stopped tapping the desk with his fingers and continued, "Areyou blaming me?"

Maddox's words sent a shiver down Sam's spine. He straightened his body and shook his head.

"It's impossible! Young Master Yardley, I'll ask more people to look out for that woman. Then, I'llinterrogate her in person before bringing her to you."

"Interrogate?" Maddox repeated what Sam said.

"Please don't worry. I'll not hurt her," Sam said.

"Well, get out now," Maddox said after he was satisfied with the answer. Then, he yanked on his tieimpatiently.

Sam wanted to leave the office as soon as possible. He couldn't stand to stay in that officeanymore. So, he responded, "Yes!"

After coming out, Sam closed the door and saw Kimberly standing against the wall.

Sam pulled her to a corner immediately. He said, "How dare you eavesdrop on my conversationwith Young Master Yardley?"

Kimberly shook her head and said, "I just happened to hear you talking. By the way, who is helooking for?"

Upon hearing this, Sam narrowed his eyes and said, "Miss Shell, I think it's better for you to mindyour own business. You're here as a substitution for Young Master Yardley's wife. You're not his realwife. I'm afraid that you can no longer be a young madam if you continue to poke your nose intoother people's business."

Sam said it in a direct way. As a result, Kimberly was so embarrassed that she lowered her headand said, "I know..."

Seeing that her mood had suddenly taken a turn for the worse, Sam realised that he had gone toofar. So, he said, "I know what I said might sound harsh to you, but it is reasonable, right? Anyway,please don't mention it anymore. Otherwise, I can't save you from the ensuing trouble.1' Aftersaying that, Sam turned around and left quickly.

Kimberly stood in the corner for about five minutes. Then, she went and knocked on the door.

"Come in," Maddox said coldly.

Kimberly hesitated for a moment. Then, she pushed the door open and went in.

Maddox was not sitting in front of the desk. Instead, he was sitting in front of the French windowswith his back to her. He was looking out of the window.

Maddox realized that the person who had just entered his office remained silent. He frowned andspun his wheelchair around.

Unexpectedly, he saw Kimberly there. Her face was pale.

Maddox frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Kimberly looked up and said, "I'm your assistant."

Maddox sneered. He felt annoyed and he glanced at her flat lower abdomen.

He yanked on the tie against his chest and asked coldly, "What are you going to do with the baby?"

Upon hearing this, Kimberly's face turned pale. She clenched into fists.

"Why are you so quiet? Are you going to keep the baby?" Maddox asked.

Thinking of what the doctor said, Kimberly mustered the courage to look at him. She said, "Can youplease give me a few more days..."

"No way!" Maddox rejected her without hesitation. He stared at Kimberly coldly and said, "I'll forceyou to get an abortion if you still have the baby in two days time."

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

Kimberly did not go to the hospital to get an abortion. This was because Sylvia told her that shewould help Kimberly ask around for a safer way to abort.

However, after two days, they still had not figured out a safe way to get an abortion.

Kimberly, who was in the bedroom, was feeling anxious that night. She hoped Maddox would notcome back. However, how could that be possible?

The door creaked open.

Maddox rolled his wheelchair into the room. When he saw Kimberly standing there in a daze, hesaid, "Time's up."

He spoke calmly in a serious tone.

Kimberly was not good at lying. Therefore, she didn't dare to look into her eyes when she saidsoftly, "I know. I've already gotten an abortion."

"Oh, really?" Maddox sneered and raised his voice slightly.

Kimberly was so nervous that her body trembled slightly. She said in a low voice, "I really got anabortion..."

After saying that, Kimberly took a paper out of her pocket with trembling hands. Then, she handed itto Maddox and said, "This is proof of the abortion. Please look at it."

Maddox did not take it.

The atmosphere in the room was tense.
