Since Kimberly had nothing to say, Maddox didn't ask further.
Maneuvering the wheelchair by himself, Maddox left the room, leaving Kimberly alone. Hadn't recovered from the shock, Kimberly let herself fell onto the bed and just lay there, eyes staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Although she had tried hard to comfort herself that these things had nothing to do with her, she couldn't help but feel sad.
As Kimberly closed her eyes, the images of the two of them being together filled her mind.
From that day on, again, Sylvia stopped contacting her. Kimberly did not want to take the initiative to contact her without thinking it through first. She carried on with her life as if nothing happened.
But that wasn't the case for Maddox. He became suspicious ever since Sylvia had brought up the matter in front of him. He asked Sam to look into the matter.
When Sam heard this news, he was a little surprised. "Young Master Yardley, do you think that Miss Hanover..."
"She must have something to do with this. We need to rely on her to find clues about the woman from that night. You know what I mean." Upon hearing that, Sam finally understood and nodded, "But she is the daughter of the Hanover family. I'm afraid..."
"Just do it. You can do it the hard way when you deem necessary."
"Got it. I'm on it."
When Sam was about to leave the room, Kimberly walked in with a cup of coffee for Maddox. Seeing her expressionless face, Sam suddenly thought of something, shook his head, and left with a sigh.
It had been long since the incident that rainy night, yet Sam still could not find the woman. He thought there would be no end to this matter, but now a clue had popped out of nowhere.
Young Master Yardley seemed to care so much about that woman. If they really managed to find her, what would happen to Kimberly?
All of a sudden, Sam felt sorry for her.
Kimberly placed the coffee on the table without a word and left the room.
Maddox glanced at her. Not a word from him either.
The canteen was rackety during lunchtime. Kimberly usually would not bother about those people, but when she entered the canteen this time, everyone's eyes fell on her. Some of them even gave a hint of disdain, which puzzled Kimberly.
She nudged Vera, who was right beside her. "Do you feel that everyone is staring at me oddly?"
Vera looked around and nodded, "I also felt that. They even seemed to disdain you. Did you do something wrong again?" Kimberly's eyes went a little blank. "What did I do?"
"Let's eat first. I'll help you ask around after lunch."
Vera led her to sit down in the corner. As they sat down, they overheard the conversation at the next table.
"I can't believe she shows up. How dare she still came here after doing such a disgraceful thing? Shame on her."
"Disgraceful?" Kimberly thought.
She frowned slightly.
"I don't think she cares at all. I heard she slept with Young Master Yardley and Vice President Yardley. Judging by the way they treat her, they must be pleased with her. She even managed to get a job here. But she wasn't content sleeping with two men from Yardley Corporation, she even seduced someone else's husband. Only an obscene person can do such a despicable thing."
