"Don't push me away, please."
Kimberly closed her eyes and kept repeating these words in her mind.
She also hoped that Maddox could read her mind at this moment.
However, he could not...
Maddox suddenly grabbed her thin arms and tried to pull her away. Kimberly realized what he was going to do. She grabbed onto his neck in a panic, unwilling to let go.
Maddox was speechless and he frowned. When did this woman learn such a way to pester others? He had never seen her like this before, but now she...
Maddox hissed in a deep voice, "Let go of me!"
Kimberly bit her lower lip tightly and closed her eyes as if she was ready to throw caution to the wind, "I won't let go."
Maddox said again, "Aren't you going to let go?"
"I won't, even to death. Maddox, I will pester you till the end. We are already married. You can't do this to me," Kimberly cried.
Maddox suddenly laughed. His laughter was full of sarcasm as he said, "What a great actress. If I hadn't found out in advance, I'm afraid that I would have been deceived by you."
Kimberly was flustered, and her arms loosened its grip a little.
Maddox seized the opportunity to grab her hands and pushed her away.
Kimberly took two steps back before she steadied herself. She glanced at Maddox. Sure enough, he had pushed her away.
Did he really want to divorce her?
"It seems like you won't give up until you have known the truth. Come with me."
Maddox turned the wheelchair and exited the lounge. Kimberly stood rooted to the same spot for a long time before she slowly followed.
She followed Maddox to the office and saw Maddox pulling open the drawer in front of his desk. He took out a leather paper bag from the drawer and threw it on the desk.
"Have a look at it and get out once you are done."
He spoke in a cruel tone...
Kimberly suddenly became disheartened.
She stood where she was and stared at Maddox without moving.
Maddox looked at her and frowned in discomfort, "What's wrong?"
"Whatever's in there, it's the reason why you are getting rid of me anyway, isn't it?"
Maddox pursed his lips and did not say anything. He stared at her deeply.
"Thus..." Kimberly smiled and said, "I don't want to see it." "Anyway, there could be thousands of reasons for you to get rid of me. I've begged you so humbly, yet you still insist that I leave. Then... I can only do as you wish."
Kimberly didn't go forward to get the document. She didn't want to know what was in it.
She had done enough.
However, Maddox did not have the slightest intention of forgiving her.
None at all.
What was the use of her staying then?
Was she going to stay to make a fool of herself?
"It seems that my existence has been disturbing you during this period of time. I'll disappear from your sight soon and never appear again."
After that, Kimberly tried hard to force back the tears that were about to fall; she showed a bright smile to Maddox.
Her smile was tearful. Although the smile on her face was faint, her expression and her eyes showed despair.
Since it was her own decision, why did she show such a look to him?
Maddox's lips moved but he did not say a single word.
Kimberly slowly turned around and left the office.
