Chapter 304

Perhaps Vera did it out of concern for Kimberly's feelings because of what had happened withSylvia.

Kimberly pursed her lips and didn't say anything anymore.

She forgot to look at the documents as well.

Benedict looked at Kimberly through the rearview mirror. He asked while driving the car, "You havea good relationship with Vera, don't you?"

Upon hearing that, Kimberly came back to her senses and nodded, "Of course."

"It's no wonder that she's willing to do so much for you. She is indeed a person worthy of being aclose friend."

Kimberly couldn't help but smile and said, "Yeah, Vera is more loyal than I thought. I didn't expecther to be so good to me."

"You have prepared the gown, haven't you?"

"Yup."

"I haven't gotten myself a suit yet. You can put on makeup when I get myself a suit later. I'veestimated the time. You don't have to worry that you will be late."

Kimberly could only agree with that since Benedict had arranged everything properly.

She was holding the box, and a stack of thick documents, which were about Sylvia's investigation.

She wanted to look at the documents as soon as she got into the car initially, but unexpectedly, shedid not have the mood to look at the documents right then.

After remaining quiet for a long time, Benedict seemed to have noticed something. He asked,"Aren't you going to look at the documents?"

Upon hearing that, Kimberly was stunned. She smiled faintly and said, "I'm not in a hurry."

Benedict was slightly surprised. He asked, "I felt that you were in quite a hurry when I saw youearlier. It turns out that... you don't care about this."novelbin

How could she not care?

Kimberly held the documents in her hands tightly. She cared about the documents a lot. However,she cared more about how Maddox looked at her when she left the villa earlier.

She had to choose between having faith in her husband or finding out the truth. She could tell whichone was more important.

Therefore, she wanted to believe that Sylvia was not pregnant.

Vera had always nagged that Kimberly was not courageous enough as she had been hurt beforeand was traumatized. She was afraid of being betrayed again. Such a thing would never happen ifshe was willing to believe in Maddox wholeheartedly.

Was it too late for her to believe Maddox right then? Thinking of that, Kimberly took out her mobilephone and texted Vera quickly.

It seemed that Vera was in the car right then as she replied to Kimberly's text message in an instant.

Kimberly almost cried when she read the text message.

She covered her mouth with her hand immediately. Tears of joy welled up within her eyes.

"Just follow your feelings. If you're willing to choose to believe in him, it means that you're braveenough to face your relationship. I'm very happy for you. I'm always on your side no matter whatchoice you make. So, cheer up!"

Right, Kimberly had to face her relationship bravely.

There were only two outcomes to that decision. The worst of it would only put her back in the samespot. There was nothing she couldn't afford to lose.

Kimberly smiled and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. Then, she put the thick documentsinto her bag. She would destroy the documents when she got back.

Benedict noticed her actions. He felt a little disappointed at that moment. He gave a wry smile andsaid after a moment, "It seems that you really love him."

Kimberly heard that as soon as she put the documents in her bag. She paused for a moment. Then,she nodded and said, "Yes."

It wasn't that hard to admit it.

Benedict didn't say anything. The car fell into a dead silence. Benedict took Kimberly to the makeupartist when they arrived at the destination. Then, he went to choose a suit for himself.

Kimberly told the makeup artist to finish the makeup quicker because she was in a hurry. Themakeup artist reassured Kimberly that that was no problem for her at all. Then, she asked Kimberlyto change into the gown.

Kimberly could feel that the makeup artist was skillful and fast in doing makeup. However, she stillfelt that it took a long time for the makeup artist to finish up.

Benedict's voice sounded and the makeup artist stopped putting the makeup on Kimberly's face.

"I'm done. Miss, you look so attractive."

Kimberly came back to her senses and looked at herself in the mirror. It turned out that her makeuphad been completed.

However, she was not in the mood to look at her makeup. She thanked the makeup artist andwalked out immediately.

Benedict was waiting outside. His breath was taken away by Kimberly when he saw her coming out.

The dress Maddox had prepared for Kimberly was light silver in color. It was completely differentfrom her usual style. The dress complemented her fair skin. She looked like a princess with themakeup.

Benedict was stunned when the light fell on Kimberly.

Kimberly was like a princess. She should have been born and raised in a noble family, receiving thelove and admiration of everyone around her.

However, she was born into a poor family instead. It was so rare for a person coming from such afamily to have such a temperament.

After taking two steps, Kimberly suddenly stumbled and almost fell down.

Benedict quickly stepped forward to hold her. He asked, "Are you okay?"

Kimberly was still in shock. She shook her head and replied, "I'm fine."

The people on the side were so scared that their faces turned pale. They also breathed a sigh ofrelief when they saw Benedict holding her.

"It's good that you're alright," Benedict said. Then, he let go of her hand and let her regain herbalance. Then, he said, "Well, let's go now."

"Okay."

Kimberly followed Benedict out and got into the car.

Benedict suddenly thought of something when he walked to the side of the car. He unbuttoned hisblazer and took it off. He said, "Put it on. It's windy tonight. Your dress is so thin."

Kimberly looked at the blazer and rejected, "It's okay. I won't be cold after getting into the car."

After saying that, she opened the car door and got into the car.

Benedict's hand, which was holding the blazer, was left hanging in the air. After a while, he put hisblazer back on speechlessly.

He thought, "Benedict, she likes Maddox so much. Stop fantasizing." The time passed by and thebanquet was about to begin.

The atmosphere in the banquet hall was extremely lively. The staff was making preparations for thebanquet to begin. There was a wheelchair on the second floor. Maddox was sitting on it with noexpression on his face. He was staring at the entrance downstairs coldly.

Kimberly... was not there yet. She also didn't give him a call at all.

How cruel-hearted she was!

Sam, who was standing beside Maddox, seemed to notice what Maddox was thinking. He could nothelp but say, "Young Master Yardley, are you waiting for Young Madam? She will definitely come. Ihave already sent her the address."

Hearing that, Maddox came back to his senses. He curled up his lips slightly and said with a sneer,"What does it have to do with me whether she comes or not?"

Sam said, "Aren't you waiting for her to come?"
