Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 151

In the breakfast shop.

It seemed like Benedict often came here. As soon as they entered the shop, the boss herself went forward and greeted them warmly.

He said to her, "This breakfast shop is quite famous. They use a wide variety of fresh ingredients. This is the menu. What would you like to eat?"

Benedict then took her to the spot where he usually sat and handed her the menu.

Kimberly didn't have the mood to eat breakfast, so she just glanced at the menu and ordered a bowl of mushroom soup.

Benedict noticed that she wasn't herself, but he did not say anything. After he handed the menu back to the waiter, he ordered a couple more dishes for Kimberly and then looked at her.

He asked, "What's wrong? You look so pale, and you don't seem to have any appetite. Do you need me to bring you for a check-up at the hospital?"

Hearing this, she came to her senses, and she stared right at Benedict who was sitting opposite of her.

He was wearing a pristine white shirt that was nicely ironed, not a single wrinkle could be seen. He was obviously very particular about his image.

His facial features were also very beautiful. Compared to Maddox's stern eyes and sharp facial features, his were much more gentle and soft.

As the saying goes, manners maketh man.

Benedict projected this feeling towards Kimberly- he was a gentleman.

She wondered if he was truly the person from that night.

"No worries. I just didn't sleep well," Kimberly waved off his concern.

The worry in Benedict's eyes increased and he said, "Erica, do you hate me?"

Kimberly was momentarily stunned and she asked dumbly, "Sorry?"

"You are always distancing yourself from me." Benedict smiled and asked in a soft voice, "Why? Do I look scary?"

Kimberly explained embarrassingly, "There's no such thing. You're just overthinking."

He then said, "Then, don't distance yourself from me, okay?"

Kimberly didn't know what to say.

She lowered her eyes, but her heart was fluttering.

How should she get the answer she wanted from him?

After thinking for a long time, Kimberly raised her head again and asked softly, "Brother Yardley, are your suits... customized?"

Although the question was a little random and sudden, Kimberly still wanted to know the answer. Benedict clearly didn't understand why she asked this question, but he entertained her anyway. He nodded slowly and replied, "Sometimes, I customize them, but if I'm in a rush, I buy them directly. What's wrong?"

Hearing this, Kimberly's hands tightened a little under the table.

That meant that he did have customized suits.

Should she continue asking? If she asked another question, he might suspect something, provided that he was the man from that night!

Kimberly tried to phrase her next question properly to not cause suspicion.

She pondered for a long while before she spoke again.

"No, I was just curious. I find some of your suits quite charming. Brother Yardley, did you use to..."

Kimberly asked while looking up at him, and she met his charming eyes. She noticed that he was staring at her, his jade- like eyes scrutinizing her and a faint smile on his face, as if he was trying to read her mind.

Kimberly's breath suddenly hitched and she hesitated, the rest of her words stuck in her throat.

Benedict simply looked at her, his eyes deep and bottomless.

He then spoke, "You seem to have a lot of questions."

He looked enigmatic, and Kimberly didn't dare to ask any more questions. At this time, the waiter brought her mushroom soup over. Kimberly took this opportunity to avoid Benedict's penetrating gaze and got up to take the bowl from the waiter.

But because she was nervous, she accidentally knocked the bowl of hot soup over, burning herself and her skin instantly turned red.
