Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 169

"Don't worry. Stay here and keep an eye on them, I'll go and talk to Sister Winna about this."

After saying that, Agnes walked out and left Lydia on her own. Lydia was very nervous and she subconsciously rubbed her fingers together.

In the interim, Lincoln was in his seat, smiling at Kimberly as she entered his office. He called out gently, "Miss Shell, here you are."

Kimberly frowned slightly at his tone and answered, "Lincoln, what can I do for you?"

Lincoln did not answer her but continued to gaze at her tenderly with a look which he thought was gentle. However, that look was terrifying to Kimberly. She felt extremely uncomfortable by his perverse stare. Her scalp tingled and she had goosebumps all over. She couldn't help but blurt out suddenly.

"Lincoln, I'll leave if you have nothing to say!"

Just as she turned to leave, Lincoln hurriedly got up and said, "Wait! I wanted to ask what you think of the breakfast I brought you. Do you like it?"

What the hell?

Kimberly thought for a moment and replied innocently, "Breakfast? What do you mean? I didn't see any breakfast. Please excuse me if there's nothing else. I have to get back to work."

Lincoln quickly came around his desk, rushed forward and slammed his hand on the door, blocking her way out.

Kimberly's face fell and she looked at him with a cold gaze.

But that gaze made her more attractive to Lincoln instead. He looked at her with a grin on his face and said, "Miss Shell, have you thought about the deal I mentioned to you a few days ago?"

This sentence made Kimberly want to laugh.

She sneered and asked in return, "Lincoln, why are you asking me this if you know my answer?"

Lincoln wasn't happy at her response. He questioned," What do you mean? You... do you not want to be with me?"

Kimberly frowned and took a few steps back, keeping some distance from him as she replied, "I thought I had made myself clear a few days ago."

Lincoln said unhappily, "Do you know what you are talking about? I've already explained it to you. Although you have been with the president before, he dumped you. Why don't you want to be with me? If you do, I can protect you if you continue working in this department!"

"I don't need anyone's protection, thank you." After saying this, Kimberly instantly tried to pull the door open.

Lincoln pressed the door shut and asked again, "Are you sure you don't want to give it a try? Why don't you take some time and think about it again?"

"Please get out of the way," Kimberly said in a clipped tone, her face sour. Lincoln was now very mortified upon being rejected unsparingly for so many times. He gnashed his teeth and hissed, "You'd better appreciate my offer!"

Kimberly scoffed in her heart, thinking that he was easily angered. She looked at him and uttered indifferently, "Get out of my way."

"Listen here. I can protect you, but I can also make you lose your job," threatened Lincoln.

"Really?" Kimberly smiled slightly and said, "Are you going to do it just like what happened on my first day here? Do you think you are smart enough to play tricks in front of the president? Let me give you some advice. It's not worth it to lose the position you worked so hard for, just because you want to play around with me."

"Hey!" Lincoln gaped in frustration as he did not expect her to be so harsh. He was mad and his expression was distorted, but Kimberly had already yanked the door open and left.

Lincoln couldn't help shouting behind her, "Who do you think you are? You are just a woman who has been abandoned by a disabled man. Who are you to reject me? Fine. Let's see how you'll suffer in my department! B*tch!"

Kimberly did not realize that her rejection could make Lincoln so angry, but she had already thought about the consequences. She was ready to bear with it.

She had been mentally prepared ever since the day Maddox had demoted her.

No matter what kind of hurdle came her way, she had to deal with it calmly. Kimberly went back to her seat and logged into her computer, continuing her work.

After that, she met up with Vera during lunchtime. Vera said excitedly, "Our company is about to celebrate its anniversary soon. There will be an anniversary event, and the Yardley family will also hold a grand banquet!"

Hearing this, Kimberly was curious about the banquet.
