Chapter 32
Maddox Yardley looked up and saw her exposed chest. His eyes were cold.
Was this woman doing this on purpose?
However, when he saw her innocently holding a perfume bottle before him, he realised that she didn't know what she was doing.
Unintentional?
He suddenly remembered that any woman who married into the Yardley family could not be that innocent. Maddox's eyes became colder. "Are you seducing me?"
Kimberly Shell looked up and did not understand why he said that.
"Huh?"
Maddox's gaze shifted and landed on her chest.
Kimberly followed his gaze and realized that her collar had opened when she leaned forward earlier. With her collar opened, her breasts were exposed.
She immediately covered her chest with her hand and leaned back. Her fair cheeks suddenly turned red and her lips trembled as she tried to explain. However, not a word came out when she opened her mouth.
Maddox's gaze embarrassed her even more.
When she realised that her movements had exposed her, Kimberly wanted to dig a hole and hide her face in it...
She really didn't do it on purpose!
She only wanted to show him that bottle of perfume. After all, he was the one who asked about it...
However, she didn't expect the collar of her dress to be so wide. She never thought that such a slight movement would result in such a situation.
This time, Maddox's impression of her must have worsened.
Her crimson cheeks returned from red to white. Kimberly looked out of the window and clenched the perfume in her hand.
She didn't do it on purpose! She didn't do it on purpose!!!
She wasn't trying to seduce him!
The atmosphere in the car became awkward. Through the rearview mirror, Maddox saw that the blush had subsided from her cheek. And her eyes looked aggrieved.
"Aggrieved?"
"What was there to be aggrieved about?"
"Did I wrongly accuse her?"
She took the initiative to expose her breasts to a man, so what else could she be doing if not seducing him?
Soon, the car arrived at the banquet. As soon as they got out of the car, Kimberly wanted to help him, but Maddox stopped her coldly. "I have something to do. You should go ahead and look for President Before leaving, Maddox looked deeply back at her and said, "Remember, don't bow or lower your head. Otherwise..."
Needless to say, the last sentence was a threat. After the previous incident, Kimberly certainly knew what he was referring to. She nodded shyly and said, "I know. Don't worry. I'm not as despicable as you think I am."
As soon as she finished speaking, the corner of his lips twitched slightly. There was a hint of mockery in his eyes. It was obvious that he did not believe in her.
Kimberly bit her lower lip and clenched her fist. She said angrily, "Rest assured."
Maddox remained indifferent. Sam Sorrento then pushed him away. Kimberly had no choice but to enter the banquet hall alone.
The people who came to the banquet were all prominent figures. She passed by several women and smelled the strong scent of perfume on their bodies. She saw the diamond necklace on their necks and the exclusive design dresses that they were wearing.
Dressed in a crowd like this, she was soon camouflaged in the sea of exquisite people.
Kimberly had never attended any banquet before, so she didn't know where to find President Lovis. She found a spot for herself, she sat down and took her mobile phone out to search for information about President Lovis.
Just because she couldn't find him now did not mean that she would never be able to find him. She should learn more about him so that she would have more topics of conversation with him later.
Kimberly sat there with her mobile phone and looked at the screen carefully. She didn't pay attention to her surroundings.
When the music started playing, Kimberly suddenly came to her senses. She glanced at the phone and realized that the banquet was already halfway through.
She picked up the cocktail in front of her and took a few sips. Then, she got up and searched for Maddox. After searching for a long time, she still did not see any sign of him.
Strange, where did he go? Why was he gone for so long?
As she was thinking, she suddenly saw a familiar figure. It was President Lovis of Lovis Enterprises. She had just read about him.
Chandler Lovis.
The man who started his empire from scratch.
He went from nothing to owning the Lovis Enterprises.
Although Lovis Enterprises was not as big as Yardley Corporation, it was still well-known in North City.
Chandler was a man in his early thirties. He was single, a little romantic, and a huge playboy. After he got what he wanted, he would lose interest. He liked to compete over wine, golf, and even chess. Most importantly, he liked listening to music. This was awkward.
Kimberly wanted to find some common ground, but she realised that they had nothing at all.
She didn't know if it would be appropriate to identify herself as President Yardley's assistant.
Thinking of this, she picked up the glass in front of her and decided to propose a toast to him first.
She slowly avoided the crowd and approached him, only to find that he was walking outside with a woman in a blue dress in his arms.
She had no choice but to catch up to them quickly.
She followed them out of the banquet hall. When they arrived in a small garden, Kimberly finally saw Chandler again.
Just as she was about to go up and talk to him, he suddenly held the woman in his arms and lowered his head to kiss her.
"Oh... President Lovis, you're so naughty..."
The woman spoke coquettishly in his arms. Chandler chuckled and stretched out his big hand to pull the zipper on her back. When his hands reached inside, the woman moaned even louder.
Kimberly didn't expect to see this. She sighed and conceded to the rumors. Then, she looked away with a red face.
She was afraid that somebody would see her, but it was not the right time to leave yet. Therefore, she could only hide behind a big tree and wait. Kimberly held the glass of wine and drank a few mouthfuls as she waited. Kimberly did not know how much time had passed, but when she finished the wine in her glass, they were still not finished yet.
Her face was calm, but the pink blush on her face showed the embarrassment in her heart. After waiting for a while, they came to an abrupt end.
"President Lovis, you'd got to come and see me tomorrow night, okay? See you~"
"Don't worry, baby. You're so charming. Of course, I'll go to you tomorrow night."
The woman pestered him for a little while more before leaving reluctantly.
After the woman left, the smile on his face disappeared. He lit up a cigarette and slowly tidied up his clothes.
After a while, he said in a low voice, "Come out."
Hearing this, Kimberly was shocked and she clenched the glass in her hand.
Had... Had she been exposed?
No! She was not eavesdropping. She came over and accidentally saw them, but now she had been exposed. Should she go out or not?
"Since nobody's here, there's no need to hide anymore. Or do you want me to pull you out in person?"
Chandler chuckled and then turned around.
Kimberly was terrified. She took a step back when she saw that he was coming towards her direction.
At this time, a cold voice came from another direction. "President Lovis, you are really good at it, even in such a public area."
Sam pushed Maddox out from the other side.
Kimberly's eyes instinctively widened.
Why was he here? Could it be that Maddox had witnessed everything too?
Thinking of this, Kimberly became even more embarrassed. She hoped that Maddox didn't know that she was here, otherwise...
