Chapter 61
Seeing Kimberly's pale cheeks were about to hit the front seat, Sam Sorrento wanted to get up, but someone else was faster than him.
Maddox Yardley reached out his arm, held her thin shoulders tightly and pulled her over to himself.
The petite figure fell into his arms. When Sam saw this, he naturally kept his mouth shut.
"Drive to the hospital."
The man in the back seat ordered in a cold voice. "Sure."
Kimberly Shell didn't faint, but after enduring the pain for a long time, she almost lost her consciousness. She thought that she would hit the front seat but she didn't expect Maddox to hold her and wrap her in his embrace.
Kimberly looked up and saw Maddox's chin and his sexy throat. Although his breath was cold, for some reason, it calmed her down.
Again...
If he helped her again this time, was he going to say something hurtful to her again after that?
Thinking of this, Kimberly reached out and pushed Maddox away. "It's none of your business!"
She was weak since she was unwell, so she didn't have the strength to push Maddox away.
"What are you doing?" Even though he did not take her words seriously, her actions and words still made him unhappy.
"It's none of your business!" She had been in a lot of pain earlier, therefore she was still in a daze when she was carried into the car. But now that she was in Maddox's arms, the cold aura on his
body had cleared her mind.
Her phone rang again. Kimberly thought that Sylvia Hanover might have arrived, so she said, "I want to get off the car!"
Hearing what she said, Maddox's brows furrowed and his cold eyes stared at her.
"What did you say?"
He gave her a sharp gaze and it was like a knife cutting across her face. Kimberly was stunned for a while, but she still bit her lower lip stubbornly. "Young Master Yardley, aren't I an outsider? Since I am just an outsider, please let me get off the car. Whether am I sick or not, it has nothing to do with you."
Sam and the driver, who were sitting in front of them, were speechless.
Was it really okay for the Second Young Madam to act like this? How dare she say such words to Young Master Yardley. She was really... too brave.
As expected, they could immediately feel the atmosphere grow tense.
"Say that again?"
Kimberly suddenly felt pressured. She had nowhere to escape.
Say that again? Kimberly raised her eyes and noticed the anger in Maddox's eyes. It seemed that if she said one more word, he would reach out and grab her neck without hesitation, letting her cry for life.
After thinking for a while, Kimberly didn't say it again. She just replied, "It's still going to be the same no matter how many times I say it. I'm not a reading machine! Anyway, I just want to get off the
^ ^ m
car.
Maddox did not move.
"I want to get off the car!" Kimberly firmly emphasized again.
Maddox was already grabbing her chin at the next second. He had grabbed it so hard that she felt her jaws were going to break apart.
"Believe it or not, I'll throw you out of the car. At that time, you and the child won't be able to live."
Kimberly's face turned even paler when she heard his words. Her lips trembled. "Maddox, you devil!"
Maddox sneered. "Devil? I'm regretting my decision of allowing you to keep that illegitimate child! Such a useless man, and what the f*ck were you thinking when you decided to keep his baby?"
Kimberly bit her lip. The child was not Jonathan Lowell's!
However, she didn't know how to explain to Maddox why she was unsure of the identity of the child's father. She was so angry and said to Maddox, "You don't know anything at all!"
Maddox sneered and ignored her.
Kimberly finally kept quiet. Then her phone rang again. Maddox was dumbfounded. Who was this person who cared so much about her?
Kimberly bent down to pick up her phone as Maddox let go of his grip on her.
"Hello?"
"Kimberly? I'm at the entrance to your company. Where are you? How are you now? I'm sorry, I was stuck in traffic when I was on my way here!"
In the quiet car, the woman's voice was clear.
When Maddox heard that it was a woman's voice, he didn't bother about it anymore.
"I'm fine. I'm already on my way to the hospital." After saying that, Kimberly wiped off the cold sweat on her forehead.
Maddox snorted coldly. How could she say that she was fine when she was suffering so much?
"Really? You took a taxi?"
"I'll explain to you later, sorry for making you drive over for nothing."
"It's fine, we're friends after all. There's nothing to be sorry about. Give me a call later."
"Sure."
The person on the other end finally hung up the phone after making sure she was fine.
After Kimberly put her mobile phone away, her breath became unstable and she fell back to the seat. Her hand subconsciously touched her lower abdomen.
It was still painful... Would the child be fine?
About fifteen minutes later, the car stopped in front of a hospital.
"Young Master Yardley, Assistant Shell, we've reached the hospital."
The woman sitting on the seat did not move.
Maddox frowned and said, "Get down quickly."
Kimberly did not respond. Sam turned his head around to have a look and said carefully, "Young Master Yardley, she seems to have... passed out."
"What?" Maddox's brows twitched. Wasn't this d*mned woman quite capable earlier? How could she pass out now?"
A few minutes later, Kimberly was put on a stretcher and carried into the hospital. Then she was sent to the emergency room.
Sam pushed Maddox, who was sitting in the wheelchair, to the emergency room and waited. He said, "Will Assistant Shell be fine?"
No one responded to him, and Sam did not feel awkward either. He continued to say, "I suddenly remember seeing her touching her stomach just now. Could it be that something is wrong with the baby? By the way, hasn't Assistant Shell been drinking last night? I thought that pregnant women aren't supposed to drink."
Maddox frowned when he heard that.
Pregnant women must not drink!
"But last night, Assistant Shell drank a lot..." Speaking of this, Sam subconsciously swallowed his saliva and looked at Maddox.
Maddox raised his eyebrows, and Sam could feel the coldness from him again...
"You're quite the chatterbox, aren't you?"
Hearing this, Sam subconsciously covered his mouth and shook his head hard.
Maddox closed his eyes. "Call me when it's done."
"Young Master Yardley, are we going to wait here? Aren't we going back?"
The blue veins on Maddox's forehead twitched. "Do you want the doctor to find no one out here when he comes out?"
After thinking for a while, Sam nodded and said, "You're right. Let's wait here."
The door of the emergency room finally opened after a long while. The doctor came out and took off his mask. "Who is the family member of Kimberly Shell?"
Sam immediately raised his hand and pointed at Maddox.
The doctor looked at Maddox with displeasure. "You're her husband, aren't you? What are you doing as her husband? The foetus is unstable and the alcohol level in her body is so high! Did you guys intend to kill the foetus?"
Maddox frowned. What did that have to do with him?
"And her stomach has been hurting for quite some time, why was she only sent to the hospital now?"
