Chapter 296

However, it seemed that Vera didn't find her annoying at all.

"Do you not... find me annoying?" In the end, Kimberly couldn't help but take the initiative to ask.

Vera looked at Kimberly strangely and asked, "Why would I dislike and avoid you?"

All of a sudden, she realized what was going on. "Gosh, do you think I hate you after seeing Ihaven't come out of the room for a long time? Is that why you wanted to leave silently?"

Kimberly didn't answer. This was exactly what she thought.

Vera said angrily, "You really... How could you think this way before I said anything? Is this how youthink about Maddox too?"

Vera reached out her hand to grab Kimberly's arm as she spoke and pulled her back to the livingroom.

"I went back to the room to clear my mind because I had never encountered such a situation before.So, I didn't know how to comfort you at that moment. I've thought about it now and was about to talkto you. But, you... you really thought about me like that! It's too heart-wrenching!"

"I'm sorry... I didn't mean it."

"Forget it. I'm mature enough to forgive you."

Vera said and pulled Kimberly to sit down on the sofa. "I've figured it out. If I'm not mistaken,Maddox knows about it, am I right?"

Kimberly nodded.

"That's easy. He still loves you despite knowing this. He even let you keep the child. This meansthat he is fine with this."

Vera held her chin and thought for a moment. Then, she said, "As for what you said just now, Ibelieve you're just thinking too much. It's similar to how you assumed I hated you just now.Kimberly, I told you before that you should give Maddox a chance to explain. He really does havefeelings for you."

"What if he doesn't only love me?"

"Are you talking about Sylvia?"

"There's one more piece of news I haven't told you."

Hearing this, Vera took a few steps back and covered her chest with her hands. "You have so muchnews! I feel that I won't be able to take it anymore if it is shocking news!"

"Sylvia said that she is pregnant."

"Is it Maddox's child?" Vera asked naturally.

Kimberly was a little surprised. She asked, "How do you know?"

Vera sneered and said, "You don't actually believe it, do you?

Kimberly was silent.

"I think you're too overwhelmed now. That's why you believed what she said. Sylvia is a wretchindeed! How dare she try to win over your husband's heart! She even told you that she's pregnant.And you, why are you so stupid as to believe her?" Kimberly couldn't say anything for a moment.She had indeed believed Sylvia.

"I didn't think she'd joke about this kind of thing."

"Didn't think? Do you know her that well? Did she seem like the kind of woman who would pull thiskind of thing in the past? Everything she did is beyond your imagination. How could you be sure thatyou know her well enough? Does she have a medical certificate from the hospital to prove thatshe's pregnant?"

Kimberly could finally see through a lot of things after hearing what Vera said. Had she beencheated by Sylvia?

However... Maddox said that he would give her a satisfactory answer and she hadn't gotten it yet.

Why couldn't he give her an answer yet? What was the relationship between him and Sylvia?

"This is very complicated. However, I'm sure Sylvia is lying. I can investigate this with you if youdon't believe me."

"Investigate? How are we going to investigate this?"novelbin

"It's very simple. Didn't she say that she is pregnant? Well, let's ask her to prove it then. How couldwe believe in what she said? Kimberly, she has made up her mind to be together with yourhusband. So, she must have planned all this. Don't be deceived by such a person. Otherwise, yourrelationship with Maddox will be affected."

Kimberly couldn't say anything for a moment. She felt that she was really useless. She should haveseen through all this clearly. However, she was too overwhelmed at that moment. She just blindlybelieved what Sylvia said.

"Did you tell Maddox that you're here? Give him a call or send him a text message now, saying thatyou missed me so you came over to spend time with me. Then, you should ask him to pick you upnow."

Vera took Kimberly's bag and took out her mobile phone while Kimberly was still hesitating. All of asudden, the mobile phone rang when she was about to make a phone call to Maddox.

Both of them were stunned. Then, they looked at each other.

Vera, who had always been calm and mature, smiled and said flatteringly, "Good evening, YoungMaster Yardley. Are you looking for Kimberly? She's here."

She behaved in a completely different way now.

Vera was not stupid. Maddox was her boss. She would flatter her boss if she wanted to talk aboutincrements or bonuses. However, she would simply talk about anything she liked when her bosswas not around.

Kimberly gripped her fingers tightly. There was something wrong with her when she came out duringthe day. She didn't know if Sarah had managed to keep the secret for her.

"Why? We are close friends, so she paid me a visit because she missed me. Young Master Yardley,are you coming to pick her up now?"

"What?" Vera exclaimed. Her facial expression changed dramatically. "Okay, I got it."

Then, she quickly hung up the phone.

Seeing Vera's reaction, Kimberly was shocked. She asked nervously, "What's wrong?"

Vera gave Kimberly back her phone and said, "He is downstairs!"

Hearing this, Kimberly was shocked. She thought, "Does this mean that he was here before hemade the phone call? Did George tell him that I'm here? Did George tell him everything thathappened today?"

"Let's go, Kimberly. I'll take you downstairs now."

Kimberly bit her lips nervously and got up. She said, "Really?"

"Why are you hesitating? You've already told me everything. You just have to pretend that nothinghappened when you go back later. As for Sylvia's pregnancy, I'll take a day off and investigate it withyou tomorrow. Just leave it to me."

Although Vera was young, she was very strong. She grabbed Kimberly's hand and pulled her out ofthe house. Then, she locked the door and took her to the elevator.

"Remember to cover your trails. You should be more confident. Maddox really likes you, so don'toverthink things."

Kimberly was touched by Vera's words. Vera really was very kind to her.

Kimberly didn't know why she was so lucky to be able to meet someone who was good to her.'Ding!'

The elevator door opened, revealing Maddox in it.
