Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 203

Kimberly's eyes were wide open for the entire night as she waited.

She was waiting for Maddox's return.

Soon, she was proved to have waited in vain. When the clock struck six in the morning, Maddox was still nowhere to be seen. For the whole time, she was lying motionless on the bed, remaining in her position.

After a while, Kimberly seemed to give up on waiting. She got up from the bed and walked to the wardrobe, retrieving a nightgown and then put it on. Then, she went back to her own bed to sleep.

She had made up her mind. As soon as her head hit the pillow, she fell asleep.

It didn't matter which woman he had gone looking for. It was none of her business anyway.

When the next morning arrived, Kimberly had only slept three hours and she woke up with a splitting headache. She got up and massaged her head before heading straight to the bathroom. After washing up, she went downstairs.

When she was having breakfast, Benedict noticed her pale face and was concerned, "Why do you look so tired? Did you not sleep well last night?"

Kimberly was surprised upon hearing Benedict's voice. She shook her head and replied, "I'm fine."

Old Master Yardley was not around, so Benedict and Kimberly could talk freely.

"I heard that Maddox was out for the whole night. Until now, he hasn't returned yet."

Kimberly was about to drink her milk, but her hands trembled when she heard Maddox's name. She almost spilled her milk onto herself. She put her glass down and picked up a piece of toast.

"I heard that he went looking for someone," Benedict spoke again.

Kimberly just bit into the toast. Benedict's sentence made her lose appetite. However, she kept chewing quietly and did not respond. Nonetheless, he continued talking.

"Do you know who he went looking for?"

Kimberly took a sip of the milk and shook her head, "I don't know. I'm full. I'll leave for work first."

After she finished speaking, she got up and went straight out. Her pace was very quick as if she was running away.

After walking for a while, Benedict caught up to her. "I'm going to the company too. Let me drive you there."

"There's no need," Kimberly refused without even turning around. She simply kept walking forward.

Suddenly, someone grabbed onto Kimberly's hand. She turned around in surprise and realized it was Benedict. He insisted, "Let me drive you to the company."

Kimberly frowned. She struggled and wanted him to let her go. However, Benedict tightened his grip and repeated, "Wait for me here. Don't leave, do you understand?"

Kimberly was hesitated, "Brother, I..."

"I'll get the car."

Before Kimberly could react, Benedict had already left to get the car. She wanted to leave right there and then, but his words echoed in her mind. So, she could only stay still and wait for him.

After a while, Benedict drove his car in front of her, motioning for her to get in.

Kimberly had no choice. She entered his car, and Benedict leaned over to fasten her seatbelt for her. Kimberly was taken aback and said hurriedly, "I can do it by myself."

"Let me do it for you." Benedict insisted as he leaned over. His cologne wafted into her nose, enveloping her. Fastening a seatbelt was an easy task. However, Benedict was deliberately taking his time helping her with it. Doing so, his cool breath fell on her face.

Kimberly felt a little uncomfortable and tried her best to shift away, her head leaning back to keep a distance between them.
