Chapter 232

Maddox asked.

Kimberly did not answer. She just shook her head while remaining buried in his arms.

Actually, before he had arrived, Kimberly had calmly thought about the incident. It was neither hernor Vera who had pushed Bianca. If someone wanted to confront her later on, Kimberly would notbe afraid. Worst came to worst, she would just take responsibility for everything.

But now that Maddox had rushed over to her side and was looking at her with deep concern, all thegrievances she had been holding back burst out.novelbin

She thought, "I can't be taking responsibility for all of this. I have to clear out this mess."

However... if Bianca's life was really in danger, then... They would definitely be at a certain degreeresponsible for it.

There were more people who were against her rather than on her side at the scene. They wouldprobably take this opportunity to frame her.

"Kimberly!"

Out of nowhere, Jonathan rushed over. He had immediately come over when he receivedKimberly's message saying that something had happened to Bianca. He did not expect to see hisex-wife in the arms of another man. This hurt his pride as a man. He said angrily, "You sent me amessage to come over here just so I could see this?"

Kimberly finally came back to her senses upon hearing Jonathan's accusation. She could sense thefamiliar scent of Maddox. She was in a trance just now because she was too afraid. Now... she hadto return to reality.

She slowly got up. Just as she was about to reply, she felt her head getting pressed down.

Maddox had pulled her back into his embrace and he said to Jonathan coldly, "Get out."

He exuded an imposing aura, and Jonathan was caught off guard. He looked at Maddox with fearand said in a trembling voice, "That woman... she sent me a message and lured me here."

Maddox smirked viciously, "Is that so?"

Kimberly struggled in his arms and said in a muffled voice, "I asked him to come."

Jonathan said complacently, "See? She admitted it!"

Maddox's eyes became even colder. Kimberly finally struggled out of his arms. She glanced atJonathan and said, "I texted you because Bianca was admitted into the emergency room. Have youforgotten what the message says?"

It was only then Jonathan recalled the message. Something about Bianca being in the emergencyroom.

Jonathan finally came to his senses when he saw Kimberly looking towards the emergency room,"Did you say Bianca is in the emergency room?"

Kimberly admitted tacitly. Jonathan immediately jumped and pointed at Kimberly in fury as hebellowed, "What's wrong with you? Bianca is going into labor soon. How can you be so wicked?How dare you do this to her! Kimberly, if anything happens to the child, I will not let you off thehook."

Kimberly bit her lower lip and retorted indifferently, "You don't even know what happened, why areyou accusing me of being wicked?"

"It's obvious, isn't it? You must have held a grudge against me after we divorced. You are jealousthat Bianca is pregnant because you and I didn't have any children, so you want to kill my only child.Kimberly, I didn't expect you to be such a filthy woman. Young Master Yardley... This woman ismerciless. You must not let her deceive you."

He then suddenly thought of something and added, "You can't keep such a wicked woman by yourside. Also, don't listen to all her lies. Otherwise... she will get you into some real trouble someday. Iam a living example!"

Kimberly swallowed her anger, bit her lower lip and cursed inwardly, "You b*stard!"

Jonathan had never done anything for their marriage ever since they had gotten married. He wasthe one who had cheated, and now he was shamelessly trying to defame her!

But what Kimberly concerned more about now was that, would Maddox buy into what he said?

Kimberly looked at Maddox nervously and said, "Don't believe him. It's... it's not like that at all."

Maddox raised his eyebrows and his thin lips curled up slowly. He said mockingly, "Kimberly, whatmade you marry a guy like him for two years? And you didn't even sense anything wrong in thosetwo years? Are you dumb or stupid?"

His words made Kimberly blushed. Maddox continued sarcastically before she could reply, "Youshould've fought back."

Kimberly was stunned. Even Jonathan was shocked.

Then, Maddox glanced at Jonathan and said with a sneer, "So, you're the useless piece of trash ex-husband who never helped out with the family expenses and cheated on Kimberly?"

Kimberly looked at Maddox in surprise.

She didn't expect him to speak up for her, and... he actually knew a lot.

Did he... ask someone to investigate Jonathan?

"W-What did you say? That's nonsense. Bianca is not a mistress!" Jonathan didn't expect Maddoxto defend Kimberly. His irritation flared and he refuted at once, "I dumped this woman only becauseshe is useless and vicious."

"On the day of your divorce, your affair was already a few months long. How dare you call Kimberlyuseless?" Sam knew all about it because Maddox had asked him to investigate Jonathan. Samcould not bear the sight of this shameless man accusing Kimberly any further, so he defended her."You are a sc*mbag. All those money that you earned in those two years, you spent them all onyour mistress. After winning five million dollars from the jackpot, you decided to dump Kimberly. Andyou still have the nerve to call yourself a man? You are a disgrace!"

Sam's words were savage. Jonathan's eyes turned red with anger. "You...!"

"Thank God you guys are divorced. Kimberly is living a much better life now that she has left yoursorry *ss," Sam added.

"Speaking of which." Maddox chuckled, with his thin lips curled into a beautiful arc. His fingers fellon Kimberly's neck, and he was still rubbing the bruise for her. His movements were gentle, andKimberly felt the pain in the bruise beginning to subside. "I would like to thank you. If it weren't foryou, I wouldn't be able to snag myself a good wife, no?"

He said in a serious tone, looking at Kimberly out of the corner of his eye.

At this moment, his eyes were as bright as the stars in the morning sea. For a moment, Kimberlyalmost thought he had really meant it, but... She quickly came to her senses that he was just puttingon an act.

As his wife, she could not embarrass him.

He had to defend his reputation.

With that thought in mind, Kimberly also showed a sweet smile, "Jonathan, I have to thank you fordivorcing me. Or else, I will probably still be suffering and deceived by you in ignorance."

She placed her arms around Maddox's neck and leaned against him, "I have to thank you for lettingme find such a good husband."

"You..." Jonathan didn't expect the couple to flaunt their love in front of him. He was so angry heclenched his fists and couldn't say a word.
