If a person was willing to show his most vulnerable side to you, it implied that he had placed enough trust in you.
Otherwise... he would never be able to act in such a manner.
Despite that, why did Maddox show her his weakest and most vulnerable side? Could it be...
Did he truly have feelings for her?
Nevertheless... if he had affection for her, why did he have to get involved with Sylvia? What actually happened between them?
The more Kimberly pondered, the more pain she felt in her head and she could only close her eyes.
After shutting her eyes, her mind was full of Sylvia's smiling face when she wore those pink earrings. She suddenly opened her eyes and sat up.
No, she couldn't let it go anymore. She had to question Maddox about it.
What on earth did he want to do?!
Thinking of this, Kimberly directly got up and opened the door, ready to look for Maddox.
Even so, Sarah acted swiftly. She brought several people over and pushed a large load of food in.
"Young Madam!" Seeing her in the distance, Sarah immediately stopped her. "I have brought them here to serve you lunch." Upon hearing this, Kimberly stopped and looked back.
How could she have the appetite to eat now? Kimberly whispered, "I don't have an appetite. Put it aside first. I will come back and eat in a while."
"Please don't do that. These dishes were specially prepared by them. You have to eat while it's hot, it won't taste good if it turns cold later. Everyone would have to prepare the food all over again."
Sarah accidentally spoke the truth. After that, she quickly covered her mouth and commented awkwardly, "I didn't say anything just now. You don't have to mind me. If you think it's not good, we can prepare the food again."
Kimberly was lost for words.
As she was looking at their eager faces, she thought that they would be disappointed if she didn't take a bite of the food.
Kimberly was soft-hearted and she could only turn back and follow them into the room. Indeed, this was her biggest weakness.
After hearing that she was the Young Madam, the servants were doing their best to please Kimberly. A huge variety of delicious dishes were placed on the table, and the room was full of the appealing aroma of food.
Kimberly's appetite wasn't that good. She was unable to indulge even looking at the table full of delicacies.
"Young Madam, this is a dessert I made, which is mixed with more than a dozen kinds of flower petals and mint. It tastes very good. You should try it at once."
One of them took out her self-made pastries and placed them in front of Kimberly in a flattering way. Kimberly smiled at her, then picked it up and took a small bite.
She didn't fancy pastries, but the sweetness of the pastry was just right. It tasted rich and melted right into her mouth with a hint of refreshing scent. To her, it tasted delicious.
"Madam, please have a taste of the chicken soup I made. I put a lot of tonics in it. It's best for women. You should drink more chicken soup since you are so skinny."
Another one served a bowl of chicken soup to Kimberly, and she took a sip.
The chicken soup was not greasy at all and the temperature was optimal.
Kimberly didn't have much appetite at first, yet the more she ate, the more her appetite improved gradually.
She couldn't resist glancing at them. "Your cooking skills are pretty good. Are you all the chefs here?"
"We're not really chefs. As Young Master Yardley only comes several times a year. Therefore, we usually have nothing else to do but to learn how to cook different dishes. When he comes, we would cook for him. If he is satisfied with our cooking, only then can we stay and continue to work here."
"Yes, our salary is quite high, and we have a lot of free time throughout the whole year, hence..."
Before the servant could finish her words, she was interrupted by Sarah with a frightened face.
