Perfect Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 87

Was Benedict Yardley speaking for Maddox Yardley?

No, why would he? Even though Maddox's attitude toward him was not terrible, but one would not say that he was polite to him.

"After all, you didn't know Maddox before you got married. You'll need a lot more time to get along with each other." Benedict said.

Kimberly Shell shook her head and clarified, "Benedict, I didn't cry because of him. You don't have to speak for him."

Hearing what she said, Benedict was a little surprised and he smiled, "That's good. I thought both of you had a quarrel again."

Kimberly did not answer. She just lowered her gaze and took small sips of the soup.

The way she lowered her head with her hair spreading out looked cute. Benedict raised his hand instinctively to pat on her head, but when he was about to touch her head, Benedict's hand paused in the air.

He looked at Kimberly, and then at his palm. He then withdrew his hand after a moment.

At this time, Benedict's cell phone suddenly rang. He took out his mobile phone and said, "Take your time. I'll need to take this call."

"Okay." Kimberly nodded. Kimberly felt much more comfortable after Benedict left the dining room.

Although Benedict was very gentle to her, Kimberly still felt awkward, since they were not familiar with each other.

She enjoyed the meal quietly after he went out.

After about a minute, Benedict returned and said, "Erica, there is something urgent that I need to attend to in the company. I have to go back first. After you finish eating, the servants will clean them up. I will send a driver to send you back to the Yardley family's home later."

Kimberly was startled when she heard that he had something urgent to attend to in the company. "Today... I haven't asked for leave from the company. I..."

"Don't worry. You're not feeling well. Maddox won't be harsh on you. Have a rest." Benedict assured.

After Benedict left, Kimberly finally realized that something was wrong.

She was his sister-in-law and Maddox's wife. How could she stay at Benedict's home?

If Maddox knew about this, he would definitely chastise her again.

Moreover, she had to prevent the outsiders from gossiping about Benedict.

Thinking of this, Kimberly quickly finished eating and then got up.

At the same time, the servant came in.

"Miss Shell, have you finished your meal?" the servant asked.

Kimberly's face turned slightly red. "Well, thank you for your hospitality, but I have something urgent to do today. I have to go back first." she said.

"Miss Shell, don't worry. The driver is coming to pick you up." the servant replied.

Kimberly was stunned for a moment and asked, "The driver?"

"Yes, Young Master Benedict's driver. He will be sending Young Master Benedict to the company first, and then come back to pick you up." the servant answered.

Kimberly paused and said, "Hmm... No need. It's too troublesome. I can go back by myself. Where is the nearest bus stop?"

The servant looked embarrassed and asked, "Miss Shell, don't you need a driver?"

Kimberly shook her head. "No, it's convenient for me to go back by bus. Please tell me where the station is."

Since Kimberly had insisted so, the servant had no choice but to send her to the bus station in person. "We're here, Miss Shell."

"Thank you." Kimberly smiled at her.

The servant was astounded by her smile and shook her head. "You're very welcome, Miss Shell. It's the first time for Young Master Benedict to bring a girl home. Miss Shell... you must seize the opportunity. I'll have to go now," she asserted.

Before Kimberly could react, the servant left. Kimberly stood still, trying to digest what the servant had said just now.

For a long time, she looked a little embarrassed.

This servant must have misunderstood the relationship between her and Benedict.
