When Kimberly heard something falling out of the jacket, she knew that it had belonged to Maddox. After taking it from Abigail's hand, she wanted to put the box back into the pocket.
Abigail couldn't help raise an eyebrow at such honest behavior. She asked with a smile, "Aren't you curious about what it is? Don't you want to open it and have a look?"
Kimberly paused when she heard Abigail's question and then looked up at her.
Open it and have a look?
Abigail continued, "The box is very small and exquisite. Even if it's his belonging, I think he bought it as a gift for someone. Maybe... he bought it for you. Why don't you open it and have a look?"
"That's... that's improper, right?" Kimberly awkwardly pulled at her lips. After all, Maddox didn't give her any permission to touch his things. But more importantly, he would never get her anything.
Maybe... he had bought it for someone else.
Abigail immediately reached out for the box, "If you don't want to, I'll open it. I'm very curious about what is inside."
Very quickly, Abigail had the box in her hands and was beginning to open it. Kimberly was too slow and couldn't stop her.
She opened the box and revealed a pair of earrings with pink diamonds. They were stunned by the shiny jewelry. Abigail exclaimed in surprise, "Sure enough, this is definitely for you."
Kimberly's breath caught in her throat as she stared at the pink diamond earrings. She thought that her eyes were deceiving her.
The pair of earrings...
This was the pair of earrings that Vera had chosen for her during their last shopping trip. At that time... she had tried them on, but they were just too expensive. Hence, Kimberly didn't buy them. Maddox had offered to buy them for her, but she had refused.
After that encounter, she had left immediately. She did not expect Maddox to actually buy them.
But when did he buy it? Why didn't he give it to her right after?
Kimberly thought of Maddox's deep, sharp eyes. He was a no- nonsense kind of man. Whenever he wasn't speaking, he would exude a dangerous aura and nobody would dare to approach him. When he spoke, he was very vicious. She couldn't imagine that he would actually buy the earrings and just leave them in his jacket.
"Judging by your look, there must be something wrong. What's wrong?" Abigail asked curiously when she saw Kimberly staring at the earrings in a daze.
Kimberly came to her senses when she heard Abigail's voice and shook her head, "It's nothing."
She looked away, but still had a strange feeling in her heart. Why did Maddox buy the earrings for her? He clearly.... had no feelings for her.
"You have very fair skin, and this pair of earrings suit you perfectly." Abigail placed the box in her hands and smiled slightly. "I have never seen Maddox buy anything for a girl before."
"Auntie, this might not be for me." Kimberly held it in her hands and felt the weight of the box. She hurriedly took the box and covered it carefully with her hands. Her actions were very gentle, she acted like the box was full of valuable treasures.
Abigail smiled quietly. She felt that she suddenly understood something. However, since Kimberly was shy, she wouldn't say it.
