Kimberly did not doubt her. She nodded and said, "Okay, then you go to the bathroom first. I'll wait for you here."
Sylvia quickly waved her hand and said, "No, don't wait for me. Go ahead, I will be down in two minutes."
Kimberly paused and replied, "Alright, I'll wait for you downstairs then."
After that, she took her mobile phone and bag and made her way downstairs.
After she left, Sylvia finally let out a sigh of relief.
She was glad that Kimberly was so simple-minded and had let her go so easily.
With a bang, she closed the door.
After that, Sylvia reopened the cabinet and took out the suit that she had stuffed into earlier. She then cut off the two remaining buttons and hung the suit back into the cabinet.
She put the buttons into her bag with a smirk on her face.
Her plan was foolproof. Even if Kimberly came to look at the wardrobe, she wouldn't see the buttons and wouldn't feel suspicious.
However... Sylvia's face turned serious again.
Because Kimberly still had one of the buttons. Thinking of this, Sylvia realized she had made a mistake, she should not have returned it to her so quickly.
Besides getting the two buttons, she had to find a way to get the one Kimberly had.
When Kimberly reached downstairs, she noticed the lively scene at the dining table. Old Master Yardley and the two Yardley brothers were all there. When she walked over, Old Master Yardley and Benedict turned around and looked at her.
Old Master Yardley looked behind her and asked, "Wasn't Sylvia looking for you? Why didn't she come down with you?"
Kimberly stepped forward and explained, "She will come down soon."
"Okay," Old Master Yardley replied.
As soon as he finished his sentence, he heard footsteps coming from behind. Sylvia came over with a smile and said, "I'm sorry, Old Master. I came a little late. I accidentally sprained my ankle just now, so I was delayed."
After hearing what she said, Old Master Yardley glanced at Kimberly and seemed a little unhappy.
He said disapprovingly, "Kimberly, Sylvia sprained her ankle and you didn't even help her, why did you come down before her?"
"Uh, I..." Kimberly didn't know why Sylvia had changed her story. She was also stunned. Just then, Sylvia grabbed her arm and explained with a smile, "It's okay. I told Kimberly to come down before me."
"Alright, sit down and let's have breakfast. Sylvia, come sit there." Old Master Yardley pointed to the seat next to Benedict. Kimberly remembered that he wanted to matchmake the two and so, she didn't say anything.
Sylvia was stunned at first. Then, she agreed and sat beside Benedict with a smile.
Kimberly wanted to follow after Sylvia, but the Old Master stopped her and said, "You sit next to Maddox."
Kimberly said helplessly, "Okay."
She did not dare to disobey Old Master Yardley's order. She walked slowly towards Maddox and sat down beside him.
Maddox's aura was very cold. After sitting down next to him for a while, she could even feel a cold sensation on her neck and shivered.
Old Master Yardley liked Sylvia very much and he kept talking to her. Sylvia would also keep the conversation going. After some time, he suddenly became more direct and asked, "Sylvia, what do you think of Benedict?"
Hearing this, Sylvia was speechless.
Kimberly also didn't know what to say.
Did Old Master Yardley really want Benedict and Sylvia to be together?
If Kimberly stayed married and Sylvia agreed with it, it would be great if they were both married into the Yardley family. Then, they would be relatives. However, Kimberly's marriage with Maddox would end sooner or later. Considering the Yardley family's condition, it wasn't a good environment for Sylvia to marry into. Sylvia was embarrassed for a while and then said with a smile, "Brother Yardley is very outstanding and he is also very considerate. He is great."
After hearing this, Old Master Yardley was very satisfied. He tidied the beard on his chin and muttered, "Then, what do you think..."
"Grandpa."
Benedict, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly interrupted Old Master Yardley. He still looked gentle and he spoke appropriately, but there was no happiness in his eyes.
