Female Novel
Chapter 294
What happened just now was beyond everyone's expectation. Juliette helped Sylvia get back intobed after Kimberly had left. She could not help asking, "Why did you fight with her?"
Sylvia sobbed and turned her back to her, refusing to answer.
Juliette could tell that this was not a small dispute at all. Judging by how Kimberly had looked atSylvia before she left, the both of them seemed to be estranged from one another.
Juliette was hesitating about whether she should tell Quill about this.
After thinking for a while, Juliette said, "Miss Sylvia, please have a good rest. I'll go out and have alook."
Upon hearing this, Sylvia's heart skipped a beat. "No way!"
Juliette was a little confused. "Miss Sylvia?"
Sylvia sat up from the bed. She seemed to be not weak anymore. She gnashed her teeth and said,"You are not allowed to tell my brother what happened today."
Juliette raised her eyebrows and looked at Sylvia, who had a completely different temperamentnow, in disbelief.
Did Juliette see it wrongly? Sylvia, who was crying badly, suddenly became so overbearing in theblink of an eye. "Miss Sylvia, did I hear it wrong? Are you talking to me?"
"This is a grudge between me and Kimberly. Please don't tell my brother. I'm afraid that he will worryabout me."
"Really?" Juliette felt that something was wrong. Sylvia changed her attitude way too fast.
"Really. Please," Sylvia went forward to hold Juliette's arm and shook it as she said. Then, shelooked at Juliette innocently and continued, "I will handle it myself. Kimberly is in a bad mood today.I will beg her to make peace with me after I'm discharged from the hospital. Please don't tell mybrother, okay?"
Seeing Sylvia like this, Juliette felt that she might have misinterpreted the situation just now, buteven if she hadn't, was it possible that Sylvia was throwing a tantrum like a child? Nonetheless, shenodded. "Understood, Miss Sylvia. Please rest easy."
Upon hearing this, Sylvia smiled and said, "Thank you."
Kimberly got into the car and left the hospital. Her face was pale and her eyes were red from crying.Sarah was wiping her tears away with a tissue.
All of a sudden, Kimberly gestured to Sarah to stop. "Young Madam?"
Kimberly took the tissue paper from Sarah's hand and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyesgently. "I'm fine. Let's go back now. We don't have to come here anymore."
Judging from Kimberly's facial expression and tone, it was obvious that this was a serious disputeeven though no one knew what had happened. Perhaps their friendship was completely over.
Sarah was very curious. However, seeing Kimberly so gloomy, she couldn't ask any questions.
Kimberly did not shed tears anymore. She saw the hospital getting further away from her throughthe rearview mirror of the car.
From now onwards, she was no longer friends with Sylvia.
Sarah had thought that Kimberly would be gloomy for a long time, and it was possible that Maddoxwould have noticed it too. Unexpectedly, Kimberly calmed herself down not long after they reached
the Ocean Villa. Even when Sarah talked to her, she was calm and cool, as if nothing hadhappened at all.
Kimberly said she wanted to go out in the afternoon. Sarah and George wanted to follow her, butshe refused.
"Both of you don't have to follow me anymore. I just want to catch up with an old friend. I want to goalone."
Sarah and George were worried that something like what had just happened in the hospital mighthappen again. They looked at each other and said, "Young Madam, even if you don't want Georgefollowing you, at least let me follow you. I can follow you everywhere."
"It's really not necessary," Kimberly shook her head lightly and said. She continued, "Don't worry.I'm an adult, not a child. I'll be fine." "But..."
"By the way, Sarah, George, a lot of things have happened in the past two days. These... Pleasekeep all this a secret. I don't want Maddox to know yet."
Sarah bit her lower lip and said, "Young Madam, don't worry. I'll definitely keep the secret since Ihave promised you so. But, George and I are both worried about you... Is it okay for George to sendyou to wherever you want to go? He will come back after sending you there and ensuring thatyou're safe and sound."
Sarah was very worried about Kimberly and kept on trying to persuade Kimberly. Kimberlyunderstood Sarah's feelings and ended up agreeing with her in the end. George sent Kimberly toVera's residence and left after Vera came to pick Kimberly up.
"Why did you come here all of a sudden? Are you not used to living in the Ocean Villa?"
Vera was teasing Kimberly. However, Kimberly's face was gloomy. Vera noticed that something waswrong with Kimberly after talking to her for a long time. She asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Kimberly pursed her lips and looked at Vera blankly. "Can I stay here for a few days?"novelbin
"Are you kidding me? Did both of you quarrel again?" Vera said.
"I have something to tell you. I don't know... what I should do."
Vera realized that Kimberly was very upset, so she nodded. "Take the key and wait for me in thehouse. I'll go to the nearby supermarket to buy some food. It's getting late now. You can have dinnerhere." "Okay."
Kimberly took the key from her hand and looked at her gratefully, saying, "Thank you, Vera."
Although they hadn't known each other for a long time, Vera... really treated Kimberly well.
Kimberly thought that what Vera did was completely different from what Sylvia did when she thoughtabout it now.
Sylvia would try to get close to Maddox whenever he was there. However, Vera would not do so.She would stay a distance from them and always put in a good word for Maddox. She would alsonever force Kimberly to be together with Benedict.
Perhaps people were really different from each other.
"You don't have to thank me. You'd better take care of yourself. It will take me about an hour tofinish with the grocery shopping. Seeing you like this, I don't think you'll be able to follow me, so I'dbetter go by myself. Go back to the house and wait patiently."
Kimberly went upstairs alone with the key after Vera had left. She opened the door and went in.
Although Vera's apartment was not big, it was cozy.
Kimberly felt at home here.
She put down her bag and sat down on the sofa. Finally, she closed her eyes with relief.
She sat on the sofa and fell asleep. Vera realized that the house was quiet when she came back.As she walked into the house, she found Kimberly curled up on the sofa.
She walked into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
It was a while later that Kimberly woke up from hunger. In the afternoon, she hadn't eaten muchbecause she wasn't in a good mood, but she needed to consider the needs of the small life growinginside her, not just herself.
