Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 210

Sam widened his eyes, "Go back? Are we not going in?"

"No."

Kimberly lowered her eyelids and stared at her toes, muttering, "Let's go."

"But..."

Before Sam could persuade her, Kimberly stood up and walked in the opposite direction. Sam froze for a few seconds before turning around to catch up to her.

He asked, "What's the matter? I thought we agreed to have lunch together."

No matter how Sam tried to talk to her, Kimberly kept ignoring him. After walking behind her for what seemed like ages, Sam rushed forward and blocked her path. "We've come all this way. If we leave right away..."

"Didn't you see that?" Kimberly raised her head and looked at him coldly.

Her indifferent gaze stunned Sam. He asked blankly, "See what?"

There was a hint of bitterness in Kimberly's eyes. She lowered her eyes and continued, "They deserve to have their lunch in peace. Why should we disturb them? Let's mind our own business."

Sam did not expect to hear that from Kimberly. He frowned slightly and said, "You can't say that. Why do they deserve their alone time? You have seen it with your own eyes. Sylvia bears bad intentions. How could you just leave..."

Kimberly cut him off, "You've been talking bad about Sylvia. Even if it is true that Sylvia is planning to seduce Maddox, what about him? Why didn't he refuse her advances? Why is he spending time with her? Who am I to make a decision for him?"

Sam was dumbstruck, "This..."

"Maddox is an adult, and he has his own opinions. I can't control him. If he really likes Sylvia and wants to be with her, he has the freedom to do so. Sam, you won't understand this because you have never been in love. If he really wants her, no one can stop him. And if we go in..." Kimberly lowered her eyes and chuckled in self- mockery, "We would just humiliate ourselves."

Kimberly took pride in her dignity. Dignity was the most important thing to her.

For a moment, Sam did not know what to say. After all, there was some sense to Kimberly's rant.

In fact, Sylvia could try to seduce Maddox all she wanted. If he rejected her, she couldn't do anything about it. He had promised to have lunch with Sylvia after all. She didn't force him.

"I'll go back to work. If you have work to do, you can go." After that, Kimberly kept her eyes lowered to the ground and left. No one saw the tears in her eyes.

She raised her head when she was sure that Sam wasn't following her. She walked confidently back to the company, wiping away the tears from her eyes. This was nothing to her. If this was Maddox's choice, there was nothing she could do about it.

After returning to the company, Kimberly happened to bump into Vera, who was about to leave the company. When Vera saw Kimberly's swollen eyes, she wanted to say something to Kimberly, but something struck her mind as she walked closer to Kimberly. Then, Vera pouted and walked away angrily.

"Vera..." Kimberly called out to Vera, but then she decided against it and swallowed her words back.

In the end, she could only look on as Vera walked away from her.

After standing still for a while, Kimberly took the elevator back to her office.
