Female Novel
Chapter 66
Sylvia Hanover stretched out her hand and was about to push the door open.
Kimberly Shell turned pale with fright. She quickly ran over and grabbed Sylvia.
Sylvia pouted her lips sadly and said, "Oh, come on, let me have a look."
Kimberly was unrelenting as she pulled her back. "Sylvia, don't cause trouble here. He might justlose his temper."
"Well, since you are in such a dilemma, then I'll just wait for him to get off work. By the way, doesYoung Master Yardley often lose his temper at you?"
Kimberly thought for a moment and said with her head slightly tilted, "He doesn't really throw a fit.It's just that I've been troubling him a lot since I came into the family. Besides, his legs are injured. Icould understand if his temper was bad."
"Really?" Sylvia thought for a moment and said, "In fact, I think he is kind enough to let you stay inthe Yardley family. This shows that he is not a bad person, and... I don't think he is incompetent.This Young Master Yardley... seems to be different from what others had said about him."
It was finally time to get off work. After Maddox Yardley left, Kimberly took Sylvia to his office.
"Just one look. You can't stay here for too long, and you can't touch his things. Otherwise, you willbe discovered."
Sylvia was quite well- behaved. After taking a few glances at the office, she left with Kimberly. Whenshe was in the midst of driving Kimberly home, she suddenly asked, "Kimberly, could I go over toyour place tonight?"
Hearing this, Kimberly's hands trembled. She looked at Sylvia with a strange expression. "Sylvia?"
Sylvia smiled uneasily and said, "I mean, could I go to your house for dinner? No one has come tosee you ever since you became a member of the Yardley family, right? I think I should go there andlet the Yardley family know that you have someone to back you up. In that case, they won't dare tobully you anymore."
Her words were reasonable and convincing. Kimberly didn't think too much. She just looked downand kept quiet.
Sylvia noticed that she did not speak and seemed to be unhappy. She was a little flustered and herhand, which was on the steering wheel, trembled a little. Then she said, "I won't go if it's notconvenient."
"It's not inconvenient. I'm just thinking... I've been married for so long yet no one has ever come tothe Yardley family to see me."
Sylvia's body shook lightly. She comforted her as she thought of Kimberly's parents. "I'm here,aren't I? Kimberly, you can treat me as your family."
Kimberly smiled and suddenly came over and hugged Sylvia's neck. "Sylvia, thank you."
In the end, Sylvia followed Kimberly back to the Yardley family's house. However, since she had nostatus in the Yardley family, Kimberly planned to ask the Old Master for his consent. On the waythere, they met Benedict Yardley.
After listening to her, Benedict explained softly, "Grandpa is still angry about what happened before,so I don't recommend that you go to him. Could you let me know the reason you were looking forhim?
Kimberly thought for a moment and told Benedict about inviting Sylvia in. After that, she lowered herhead and said timidly, "I don't know if it's possible... So I just want to ask for the Old Master's
consent."
"It doesn't matter. Kimberly, you are also a member of the Yardley Family. You can decide on yourown. If you want to bring your friends here, just bring them in." Benedict was still as modest andpolite as always. Kimberly almost doubted whether she had misunderstood him back then.
Kimberly did not realize that Benedict had changed the way he was addressing her, and she hadforgotten that she was supposed to be Erica Shell in this family.
"Thank you, Benedict. I'll invite my friend in then."
"Please," Benedict smiled. Suddenly, he reached out and gently stroked her hair. "I heard that youwere admitted to the hospital yesterday. Are you all right?"
The action of him stroking her head was too... affectionate. Kimberly subconsciously took a stepback and shook her head. "Thank you for your concern, Benedict. It's nothing serious. I'll be goingthen." "I'll go with you."
Benedict followed behind her to bring Sylvia in.
Sylvia's eyes lit up when she saw Benedict. When she was still wondering who the man was,Benedict had already offered his hand to her. "Hello, I am Kimberly's big brother, Benedict Yardley."
"Hello, I'm Sylvia Hanover." Sylvia was well-versed in social etiquette, hence she reacted quickly.She took the hand that Benedict had offered and shook it firmly.
"Welcome to our place."
"Thank you."
"Enjoy yourself. I have something else to attend to."
Kimberly took Sylvia upstairs. When they entered the elevator, Sylvia asked, "Is that Maddox's olderbrother? He is quite handsome and he seems to be a gentleman. He should be very kind to you,right?"
Listening to Sylvia's words, Kimberly thought for a moment and nodded. "Well, Maddox's big brotheris indeed a very nice person."
"Although he looks handsome, I think... Maddox looks more impressive! His deep eyes have amasculine temperament, tsk, tsk..."
Kimberly gave her a strange look. Sylvia coughed lightly and said, "I'm just praising your husband!"
When she walked to the door of her room, Kimberly suddenly felt awkward. She bit her lower lip andstood there. How could she forget that she was sharing a room with Maddox? If she brought Sylviain, would Maddox... agree to it? "What's wrong?"
"Assistant Shell, are you back?" While she was thinking, Sam pushed Maddox towards them. Whenshe saw Maddox, Kimberly's eyes changed and she subconsciously took a small step back.
Her subtle action was noticed by Maddox, and there was a slight sarcasm in his dark eyes.
Oh, this woman seemed to be really afraid of him. Naturally, a person's subconscious actions wouldreveal the truth.
"Yes, I'm back. Young Master Yardley... This is... my friend Sylvia Hanover." Kimberly thought for amoment and took a step forward. Then, she took the initiative to introduce Sylvia to Maddox.
As soon as she saw Maddox, Sylvia's beautiful eyes started beaming. Her eyes were fixed onMaddox's face and she couldn't move them away. Then she raised her lips and showed a big smileto Maddox as she greeted him.
"Young Master Yardley, I'm Sylvia Hanover. We've met in the hospital before." After saying that, shewinked at Maddox and her heart was beating wildly in her chest.
Maddox raised his eyes inadvertently and looked at her.
Sylvia immediately felt that her heart was caught!
That gaze! What a confident look! Such a man! He was really... charming!
Sylvia felt her heart beating quickly when she saw Maddox!
However, Maddox only glanced at her briefly and retracted his gaze. Then, his eyes fell on Kimberly,who was standing next to Sylvia.
Kimberly felt coldness on her spine under his cold gaze. She opened her pink lips slightly andexplained in a low voice, "If... it's going to bother you, then I'll take her outside."
"Welcome."
Maddox suddenly looked at Sylvia and said.
His voice was lukewarm, but it was enough to make Sylvia's heart beat wildly.
Sam Sorrento looked at the scene in front of him and felt that something was wrong.novelbin
