Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 5

"I know."

"You will work as Maddox's assistant from tomorrow onwards."

Upon hearing this, Kimberly Shell looked at Old Master Yardley in shock. "But..."

"It's settled. You will go to work with Maddox from tomorrow onwards. You must never leave him alone,"

Old Master Yardley said without giving Kimberly any chance to say anything. Then, he waved his hand, signaling her to leave.

Although Kimberly was reluctant to do so, she didn't want to argue with the old master. She was afraid that he would find out the truth. Therefore, she decided to quit her current job and oblige the old master.

The next day, Old Master Yardley asked Maddox Yardley to take Kimberly to the company.

"You've always been reluctant to hire an assistant and I know what you're worried about. But Erica is your wife now and you should let her follow you and take care of you."

The way Old Master Yardley spoke to Maddox in the same way that he spoke to Kimberly and she thought that it was a little strange. What was going on? She thought they had a good relationship.

Kimberly felt someone staring at her while she was immersed in her thoughts. It was obvious who the person staring at her was.

Maddox stared at her and responded, "Okay."

Kimberly was a little surprised. She thought that he would reject the idea.

"Well, please leave now." Old Master Yardley's facial expression softened a little.

Maddox, on the other hand, had no facial expression at all. Sam Sorrento nodded at the old master and said, "Old Master Yardley, we'll leave for the company now."

"Please remember to take Erica with you," old master said.

Kimberly had no choice but to follow behind Maddox.

Maddox sneered when they arrived at the garden. "Wow, you wasted no time in building a good relationship with the old master. Are you trying to keep an eye on me?"

Kimberly stopped in her tracks and frowned.

"I don't understand what you're talking about," she said.

Maddox sneered. "Haha! You'd better not do that, otherwise..."

Maddox did not finish his sentence. However, Kimberly knew that he was threatening her.

Kimberly was consumed by anger. First, she had to quit her job. Then, she was required to follow behind him all the time.

They had agreed to stay away from each other. However, now they were forced to be together all the time. She didn't want this to happen at all.

They walked silently the whole way. Someone helped Maddox get into the car and Kimberly wanted to get in after him. However, Sam stopped her.

He said, "Miss Shell, this is Young Master Yardley's

car.

Kimberly was stunned. She asked, "What do you mean?"

Maddox looked at her and sneered. "You're not qualified to be my assistant."

Upon hearing this, Kimberly's facial expression changed. She asked, "Why did you agree to Grandpa then?"

Maddox ignored her and looked away. Kimberly reached out her hand to stop Sam from closing the car door, saying, "What should I do if you leave? Grandpa..."

Maddox narrowed his eyes and stared at Kimberly when she mentioned Old Master Yardley.

"Sam, please tell her the route so that she can walk," he said.

Kimberly was speechless. How could there be such an evil person?

Sam told her the route with no expression on his face. Then, he closed the car door.

Through the rearview mirror, Maddox looked at Kimberly who was standing at the main entrance. Then, he looked away. All of a sudden, he thought of something and he asked, "Is there any news on the woman I instructed you to find?"

Sam replied apologetically, "Young Master Yardley, there is no surveillance camera along that road. On top of that, it was raining heavily and no passersby could see clearly in the dark. Please give me some more time. I believe I can locate her."

Upon hearing this, Maddox frowned and said, "It has been a month. That woman should be pregnant by now if someone deliberately planned this."

Sam was shocked. It was a serious matter if the woman was really pregnant with Young Master Yardley's child. Thinking of this, Sam became serious.

He said, "I see. I'll assign people to gather information from the hospital."

Maddox narrowed his eyes.

He had never touched a woman before and the woman from the other night was his first.

Therefore, he had to find her!
