Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 185

Ethan touched his head awkwardly and started explaining sincerely towards Kimberly.

He said, "My name is Ethan Arnold. I'm the only child of Arnold Corporation. I like playing basketball and car- racing. I just want to make friends with you."

Kimberly didn't know how to respond.

Vera was also speechless.

Sylvia pursed her lips and said sarcastically, "Arnold Corporation? Who do you think you are to befriend us? Do you think you deserve to be our friend?"

Hearing this, everyone's expression changed. Ethan's face turned pale and he looked at Sylvia silently.

Although Kimberly didn't want to care about the guy, Sylvia's words were a little too harsh for her taste. She stared at her in surprise. She couldn't believe that Sylvia could say something like that.

Ever since Sylvia had become the daughter of the Hanover family, many people would pamper her. She was arrogant and domineering and no one dared to do anything to her because of her status. She had pretended to be kind and humble in front of Kimberly, but now that she saw Ethan, her true colors were showing.

Thinking of this, Sylvia quickly changed her expression and flashed a friendly smile. "Kimberly, I didn't mean that... I just thought..." she whispered in Kimberly's ear upon seeing that Kimberly's expression had changed a little after hearing her words.

"You should leave now." Vera urged Ethan, "Whether you win or not, it has nothing to do with Kimberly. Don't blame us if you lose, we didn't promise you anything. We won't take the blame."

Ethan knew that he said something wrong. He looked embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that."

After that, he left.

The men's swimming competition began with the blow of a whistle. They were standing at the front, and Vera was very excited. She frantically took pictures of the contestants with her mobile phone. Later, she shouted, "Come on, Vice President Yardley! Come on, Vice President Yardley!"

Benedict's body figure was very good. Vera had even chased after him, screaming with her mobile phone in hand. She was wearing high heels and a long skirt, which made Kimberly's heart skip a beat for fear that she would trip and fall.

In the end, Benedict was the undisputed winner.

The place was filled with women's excited screams. Almost everyone saw Benedict's good figure when he emerged from the water. However... Kimberly noticed that Maddox was not far behind him.

He was in his wheelchair. Although he was expressionless and his eyes were cold, it seemed that he didn't care about any of this.

However, Kimberly felt bad for him. If... if he was not disabled, then he could have swum in the water like everyone else that night. But because of his legs, he could only sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. He couldn't do anything other people could do.

Her eyes were fixed on Maddox and he noticed it immediately. His sharp eyes looked straight into her soul. Kimberly was shocked and she quickly looked away.

The look in Maddox's eyes filled with sarcasm.

What was that look in her eyes? Pity?

Was she pitying him?

Not long after Kimberly looked away, Vera came back and pulled at her, saying, "What are you thinking about? You missed such a wonderful game. I took a lot of photos, all of them of Vice President Yardley, of course. I will send them to you when we get back."

"Send them to me?" asked Kimberly.

Vera nodded and replied matter-of-factly, "Yes, Vice President Yardley is courting you, right? Let me show you his body first, allow yourself to get familiarized."

When she mentioned his body, Kimberly thought back to the rainy night, when the man had pinned her down on the leather chair. His deep breath and his hot palms made her tremble.

Her face instantly turned pale and she chided, "Don't talk such nonsense!"

Kimberly then turned around and sat back down on her seat. She picked up the cup in her hand and took a sip absent- mindedly, not noticing that the cup in her hand had been swapped.

Not far away, when Agnes and Lydia saw this, their lips curled up proudly.

Lydia said, "Agnes, I told you. We'll definitely have the chance to defeat her."

Agnes smiled proudly and replied, "As long as she drinks that wine, later... she will feel hot and dizzy. Now, go and inform Lincoln and ask him to wait to pick her up."
