Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 163

Mrs. Shell stared at Kimberly dazedly for a long time.

Then, she gasped exasperatedly, "You... Are you trying to anger me to death?"

Kimberly simply stood still and stared at her.

"You're asking for 100,000 dollars. Isn't that the same as asking for my life?" Kimberly asked.

Mrs. Shell was speechless for a moment before she tried to bargain, "Fine! How about 50,000 dollars? Even 30,000 dollars is fine!"

Kimberly scoffed, "Mother, you think too highly of

me.

Mrs. Shell refuted, "Kimberly, I raised you! Is this how you repay your mother? I'm asking for only a few thousand dollars, can't you give me that? You're so unfilial!"

Kimberly didn't say anything, but she unconsciously clenched her fists tightly. She bit her lip and ignored everyone on the street who was giving her strange and judgemental looks.

She didn't care about what other people thought of her anymore.

She really didn't have the money to give Mrs. Shell.

"Say something!" Mrs. Shell stepped forward and tugged at her clothes, saying, "Look at what you own now! Because of me, you get to enjoy all these nice things! You are such an ungrateful person. How can you ignore your parents when you are living a good life now?"

Mrs. Shell scolded her loudly. Kimberly closed her eyes and tried to ignore her mother, simply letting her tug at her clothes.

All of a sudden, a pair of big hands pulled her away from Mrs. Shell.

"Auntie, please stop." Kimberly heard a warm voice coming from above her. She opened her eyes and looked up blankly at that person.

It was Benedict.

Kimberly wondered why he was here.

"Who are you?" Mrs. Shell asked as she looked at the man who had appeared out of nowhere, shielding Kimberly behind him. He exuded a sense of nobleness, and his attire added to his extraordinary look.

Mrs. Shell squinted her eyes and asked again, "Are you Kimberly's husband?"

Kimberly was stunned and she hurriedly explained, "Mom, he is not..."

Benedict was slightly stunned when he realized that Mrs. Shell was Kimberly's mother. He smiled and said, "You are Kimberly's mother?"

Kimberly looked at Benedict in surprise. What did he mean? Why didn't he deny it?

"Yes, I am Kimberly's mother. You are her husband, aren't you?" Mrs. Shell flashed a flattering smile and said without waiting for a reply, "The thing is, my family is facing some difficulties, so I wanted to borrow some money from Kimberly. But this girl is so stubborn. She told me she doesn't have any money... How is that possible? She is married into the Yardley family. I'm sure she must receive a good amount of pocket money. Besides, she also has a job..."

However, before Mrs. Shell could finish speaking, Benedict interrupted her with a faint smile, "Excuse me, how much do you need?"

Mrs. Shell quickly blurted out an amount.

"Not much, just two hundred thousand dollars!"

"Mom! You said..." Kimberly couldn't help shouting to interrupt her.

Mrs. Shell immediately glared fiercely at Kimberly.

Benedict remained smiling and kept Kimberly behind him, preventing her from speaking. Then, he took out his wallet and handed a card to Mrs. Shell.

He said, "Auntie, this bank card contains 300,000 dollars. You can use it if it's urgent. The password is six 7s."

When she heard the amount, Kimberly hurriedly came forward and reached for the card. However, Mrs. Shell was faster. She grabbed the card from Benedict and held in her hand, looking extremely happy.

Mrs. Shell said, "Look at how sensible your husband is! I should thank you. Kimberly, you have married to a good man!"

Mrs. Shell was afraid that Kimberly would try to snatch the card away, so she quickly stepped back while saying, "I need to attend something urgent. Please excuse me. I'll visit you next time." However, when Mrs. Shell passed through the street and turned its corner, a realization abruptly dawned on her.
