Female Novel
Chapter 99
Kimberly told Sylvia about her whereabouts, and then she went outside to wait.
After around twenty minutes, Sylvia showed up in a car. Once the car stopped, Kimberly quicklystepped forward and opened the door to get in the car.
"What's going on?" Sylvia asked.novelbin
"Let's go to the company first. I'm running late. I'll tell you about it on the way," Kimberly said.
Sylvia complied and swiftly made a U-turn.
"Why did Maddox want to confiscate your phone out of blue? Did you offend him? Or, did youaccidentally expose something?" Sylvia questioned.
Hearing this, Kimberly shook her head and replied, "No, I didn't expose anything. It's just that wehad a quarrel last night."
"A quarrel? Tell me what happened." Sylvia said.
Kimberly did not dare to describe the fight between her and Maddox in details. Hence, she justroughly told Sylvia the reason for the quarrel.
"Holy cr*p, it's obvious that he doesn't like you at all. How could he always say these words tohumiliate you? What a wicked tongue," Sylvia commented after listening to her.
Kimberly felt somehow at a loss when she heard her saying "he doesn't like you". She nodded withdisappointment and agreed, "Yes, he hates me." "Judging from the current situation, you didn'texpose yourself or say anything weird, so he probably didn't find out anything. After all... only thetwo of us knows about it, right?" Sylvia asked.
Kimberly nodded seriously, "I only told you."
"Fine. I guess he just wants to make fun of you by taking your mobile phone away. After all... hewants you to pay the price. He wants you to suffer from all kinds of torture as revenge," Sylviaanalyzed.
"Sylvia, it's not the time to analyze this. The mobile phone is with him, and the chat record betweenus will be discovered."
"D*mn it. Why didn't you delete the record for such an important matter?" Sylvia chided.
Kimberly also realized that it was her fault. She was not careful enough. "I did that for the previoushistory, but I did not delete the latest ones. I had no idea that he would confiscate my mobile phoneout of a sudden," she clarified.
"What should we do now? Your phone has been taken away and he doesn't want to give it back toyou. You can only pray that he doesn't look through your phone," Sylvia sighed hopelessly.
Kimberly had a headache and reached out her hand to pinch her glabella. Sylvia looked at her,feeling helpless and she scolded, "Girl, your stupidity is killing me. You should have deleted all ofthe chat records."
Kimberly went quiet.
"I'll send you to the company first. Don't mess up later, and do the right thing at the right time,"Sylvia advised. After that, Sylvia gave her a cell phone. "This is mine. You can use it for the timebeing," she said.
Kimberly nodded and asked, "Okay. Then, what about you?"
"Come on, this is my spare phone. I still have my main one with me," Sylvia said.
"Alright," Kimberly uttered.
"We're almost there. Call me if you need anything. Claim back your phone as soon as possible,"Sylvia reminded her.
After Kimberly got out of Sylvia's car, she looked back at Sylvia worriedly. Sylvia waved at her andsaid, "Just go in."
Only then did Kimberly walk inside the building.
She took a deep breath, telling herself to calm down and not to mess up.
After entering the company, Kimberly went upstairs to her desk. Seeing that it was quiet in theoffice, she got up and made a cup of coffee and sent it into Maddox's office.
When she pushed the door open and entered the room, Maddox was looking at the computerscreen. He tapped on the keyboard with his fingers, looking extremely focused.
Kimberly rolled her eyes and pursed her lips, placing the coffee on his table.
"Young Master Yardley, your coffee," she said.
Maddox did not answer her. Kimberly's lips moved as she wanted to ask when he would return hermobile phone to her. However, when she was about to blurt out her question, Kimberly suddenlyremembered that she had to calm down.
She could not mess things up.
Kimberly suppressed her thought to ask for her phone back. After putting down the coffee, sheturned around and left the office.
Maddox heard the sound of the door close again. She was surprisingly quiet when she came intohis office just now. He couldn't help looking up at the coffee cup.
She didn't ask him for her phone ?
Maddox narrowed his eyes and fished out Kimberly's mobile phone from his pocket.
The mobile phone was very old, and it looked like it had been used for years. Even if he threw itaway, she should not have to feel distressed. But last night, she appeared very flustered afterrealizing that she had lost it, which triggered his curiosity to find out what was hidden on her mobilephone.
Nonetheless, he had never unlocked it.
He, Maddox, was never interested in finding out other people's secrets.
If it were not for the phone call from her ex-husband, Maddox would not have confiscated herphone.
If the phone was given back to her, her ex-husband would call her again. At that time, she would getin touch with him...
Thinking of this, Maddox called Sam without hesitation. "Go and buy a SIM card and bring the SIMcard tray pin as well," he ordered.
Sam was not aware of the backstory but he still did as what Maddox had instructed him to.
Kimberly heaved a sigh of relief after returning to her seat.
The phone given by Sylvia earlier rang, and Kimberly took it out to look at the screen. It was a textmessage from Sylvia, asking her how she was doing.
Kimberly updated her about what had happened just now. After that, Sylvia gave her a thumbs-upemoticon. She asked Kimberly to keep it up and not to provoke Maddox for at least a day. Ofcourse, when there was a chance to take the phone back, she must seize the opportunity to do so.
Kimberly put the mobile phone away and spent the whole day listlessly.
She was too worried. She was afraid that Maddox would discover her secret. However, she tried herbest to remain as quiet as possible when she met Maddox, never mentioning her phone again.
Maddox also seemed to have forgotten about this matter.
When they were about to get off work, Maddox suddenly asked her to accompany him to a dinnerparty.
Kimberly raised her eyebrows slightly.
She said, "But, Young Master Yardley, the dinner party you're going to attend is a private one, isn'tit? It seems like it has nothing to do with me." Maddox raised his eyebrows and said, "Attend as myplus one. Then, I'll return the phone to you when we arrive home."
Hearing this, Kimberly couldn't help biting her lower lip.
"B*stard, how dare you threaten me again?" she thought.
She raised her head and stared straight into his eyes. "How do I know if you'll keep your promise?After all..." she said as she recalled that he had just lied to her last night.
He had asked her to kiss him so that he would give the phone back to her.
Even though she kissed him twice, he still did not give the phone back to her.
He was crossing the line!
"You don't want it back?" Maddox sneered. "I'll pass by the Plum Lake on the way to the dinnerparty. If you don't want it, I'll just throw it into the lake," he said nonchalantly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Maddox straight away rolled his wheelchair and left.
Kimberly's eyes widened. It took her exactly ten seconds to react. She quickly followed him andsaid, "I will go with you!"
Maddox could not help but smirk when he imagined how exasperated and helpless the womanbehind him looked.
Then, Sam handed Kimberly a box.
"Assistant Shell, this is the dress for you to wear when attending the dinner party."
Kimberly took it from him and went to the bathroom to change into it. After that, she unwillinglywalked to Maddox's front in the dress.
Excitement flashed across Maddox's eyes. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Kimberly, who wasstanding in front of him.
The corset of the dress accentuated her S-shaped figure, featuring her slender waist. Maddox knewthat Kimberly had a great curve, but it was normally hidden under her style of dressing.
After he had touched her and felt her figure under his fingertips... he realized that her figure was notas flat as how she usually appeared to be.
