Chapter 49

Maddox's smile was terrifying.

"It is just as I said."

Sam's expression was a little strange, and he asked, "Young Master, are you really going to dealwith him from the source?"

"Do you think I'm joking?" Maddox Yardley glanced at him coldly. A chill immediately ran down SamSorrento's spine. "Understood."

Then, he dragged Chandler Lovis out.

"Maddox Yardley! You are just a disabled man sitting in a wheelchair. If you dare to touch mygenitals, Old Master Yardley will kill you!"

Sam listened solely to Maddox's orders. He was not worried that Chandler would use the OldMaster Yardley as his shield. He ignored Chandler's threats and dragged him out.

Kimberly Shell, who was watching from aside, was so frightened that she couldn't help but take twosteps closer to Maddox. "That..."

"Don't you dare plead for him!"

Kimberly swallowed all the words that were already at her lips.

Maddox's body seemed to be radiating thick smoke, making him look fierce and unapproachable.But if she didn't plead for him, Chandler might really get... Thinking of this, Kimberly steppedforward to push his wheelchair and whispered, "He had already learned his lesson. Let him go."

Maddox did not speak. The anger in his eyes grew like thunder.

"If his... really gets cut off, it would be hard to explain to the Old Master..."

"Stupid woman, didn't I tell you not to plead for him?" Maddox held her fair wrist and looked at hercoldly.

Kimberly paused. After a while, she moved her lips and said, "I, I'm not pleading for him... I'm justafraid that your relationship with the Old Master will take a turn for the worse because of this..."

Hearing what she said, Maddox paused and narrowed his eyes.

"Are you worried about me?"

Kimberly nodded blankly.

Her eyes were cold without any emotions in them, and she didn't look like she was begging formercy for Chandler.

After a short pause, Maddox withdrew his hand and said, "Push me home."

"But over at Sam's side..."

"That's none of your business."

Kimberly wanted to say something else, but Maddox had wheeled himself towards the exit. It wasobvious that he would leave her behind if she didn't catch up with him. There was no other way. Nomatter how anxious Kimberly was, she couldn't let Maddox leave alone. After all, he was outside. Itwould be inconvenient for him to leave alone since Sam was not by his side.

Thinking of this, Kimberly quickly followed his footsteps.

She pushed his wheelchair and was about to leave when the waiter came up with a trembling voice."Sir, please wait a minute."

Kimberly had to stop. "What's wrong?"

"You... have damaged the property in the store, so you... have to compensate for them." The waitersaw how they fought just now, and he was understandably terrified at this moment.

Maddox's expression did not change. He said coldly, "Remember the name of the store. I will havenew sets sent here tomorrow."

Kimberly nodded and quickly wrote down the name of the store.

The waiter noticed Maddox's strong aura and did not dare to say anything else. He could only watchthem leave.novelbin

Kimberly pushed Maddox out of the cafe and they walked on the stone pavement. She said, "YoungMaster, you acted too rashly. The Old Master..."

"Why do you keep mentioning the Old Master. Why? Did he give you that many benefits that youkeep thinking about him?"

Kimberly stopped and bit her lower lip. She said angrily, "Don't look down on me! I am really worriedthat the relationship between you two will take a turn for the worse." "Why are you meddling in this?Don't forget, this is the family business of the Yardley Family. It's none of your business as anoutsider."

Kimberly's face changed a little, and the blood on her lips slowly faded away.

Yes, how could she forget? This was the family matters of the Yardley Family. Even if they reallyturned against each other, it had nothing to do with her.

The woman that Maddox wanted to marry was Erica Shell, not her.

To the Yardley family, she was just an outsider and would be leaving in half a year.

She really didn't know her place. Why was she worried about them?

Thinking of this, Kimberly did not speak again.

For a moment, the two of them were silent.

When they passed by the people on the street, they would give way to them politely. Kimberlypushed Maddox and their journey back was smooth.

When they passed by a service shop, Maddox suddenly said, "Stop."

Kimberly stopped, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Maddox tilted his head and looked inside. "I need to buy some clothes."

Flearing this, Kimberly couldn't help but frown. "Why are you buying clothes at this hour?" shequeried.

"Push me in." Kimberly gritted her teeth angrily and pushed Maddox into the boutique.

She glanced around and found that it was a female clothing store. Maddox was a man. What did hecome here for? To buy clothes for his secret lover?

Kimberly suddenly remembered that she had heard that he was looking for someone. Relying onher sixth sense, that person should be... a woman.

Did he find that woman already? Was he buying clothes for her?

"Hello, welcome."

The waiter quickly came forward to greet him.

Maddox pursed his thin lips and said coldly, "I'll take all the clothes that suit her."

Kimberly, who was in low spirits, suddenly raised her head and looked at Maddox in astonishment.

"It's for me?"

It turned out that he was buying clothes for her. She thought...

Maddox didn't even look up. His cold and powerful aura made people retreat a few feet away fromhim.

The staff gazed at Kimberly hesitantly after looking at her clothes. But after looking at Maddox'sclothes, she decided to obey this man's order. She quickly turned around and pack all the suitableclothes for Kimberly.

When Kimberly saw that the staff was starting to pack the clothes up, she panicked. "Wait a minute,don't..." When she wanted to stop the staff from doing so, Maddox grabbed her by the wrist andpulled her back.

"What are you doing?"

"I don't need so many clothes..."

"It's not your money anyway."

"I don't want you to spend your money on me!" Kimberly said seriously, biting her lower lip andstaring at Maddox stubbornly.

He was already looking down on her. If she accepted the clothes he bought for her, wouldn't sheappear even more pathetic in front of him? Thinking of this, Kimberly firmly said, "Although I am

poor, I don't need others to spend their money on me. I can buy clothes myself, and I don't needyou to pity me!"

"Really?" Maddox sneered, and his gaze fell on her fair face. "You lost a month's salary in a matterof a few days after you started working. Where will you get the money to buy these things?"

Kimberly thought for a long time and was rendered speechless. She could only turn her headaround as she clenched her fists. "Anyway, I will figure it out myself, I don't need your help!"

"You don't need my help, huh? Oh, then why did you react so violently when Chandler said that Iwas disabled and incompetent? You went to apologize to him, didn't you?"

Kimberly straightened her back instantly.

Yes, she had gone over to apologize to Chandler Lovis, but the situation changed abruptly afterthat. She did not expect Chandler to say those demeaning words, so she attacked him in a momentof anger.

"I didn't think so much at that time. What do those two have to do with each other?"
