Chapter 53
The man's hand was shaken off. When he was about to put it on her waist again, someone grabbed his collar and dragged him backward.
What happened? Before he could even ask, the man felt that the temperature around him began to drop. A sharp gaze fell on him as if they were knives cutting through him. It came from the man who was sitting in a wheelchair.
The bar was dark and it was noisy everywhere. Everyone was drowning themselves in the bar's atmosphere, yet he was totally different.
Just by sitting there, one could feel his arrogance merely by looking at his eyes. His dark eyes and powerful aura separated him from the outside world.
"What are you trying to do to her?" Sam Sorrento grabbed the man's collar and asked.
"I'm sorry!" The man apologized immediately. Although the man was sitting in a wheelchair, his temperament showed that he was not an ordinary person. Moreover, when the man behind him grabbed him, he didn't even have the strength to fight back. What else could this mean?
He had been in the society for a long time. He knew exactly what was happening.
"I didn't know that she had a companion. Sorry, please let me go." Maddox didn't say anything. His thin lips were tightly pursed and his sharp gaze fell on the man's hand.
"Which hand did you use to touch her with?"
The man stood still, cold sweats were beading on his forehead. Maddox's piercing gaze was pressuring him. He couldn't help but tremble as he slowly raised his right hand.
"Cut it off."
To the man, these calmly uttered words were like a bomb falling and exploding to the ground.
The man was frightened, and his teeth were chattering. "I, I really didn't mean to touch her. I didn't know... Gentlemen, please show me mercy!"
Before he could finish his words, several men in suits and sunglasses immediately came forward and grabbed him.
The man had never seen such a scene before. He was so scared that he almost collapsed to the ground.
However, at this time, things started to change.
Kimberly Shell, who had been lying still on the bar counter, suddenly stood up and staggered toward Maddox.
"You!" Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
She walked to Maddox and pointed at him with her index finger.
Maddox's expression did not change. He looked at her calmly.
Her cheeks were red, and her eyes were slightly tender and charming. Her red lips were glossy from the alcohol, and her hair was drooping on her shoulders, almost covering most of her face. All these made her look like she had makeup on, yet she looked even prettier and more natural than having makeup on her face.
Maddox seemed to be in a daze as if he was attracted by her charming appearance.
"Why do you... care about me?" Kimberly pointed at Maddox and said angrily.
But after all the alcohol, her body was a little weak, and she spoke breathlessly. This somehow made her look coquettish.
The subordinates on the side were so shocked that they almost dropped their jaws.
This woman dared to question Maddox for meddling in her affairs?
"Speak up! I'm asking you!" Kimberly saw that he had been sitting still. She took another step forward and staggered toward Maddox.
"Young Master!" Sam's eyes widened as he called out nervously.
Maddox looked at the woman who was stumbling towards him. As long as he moved, he could avoid her easily.
But she would then fall to the cold and hard ground. If he didn't move, she would throw herself into his arms, in front of so many of his subordinates...
Boom!
The subordinates widened their eyes and looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief. Were their eyes deceiving them? Did the Young Master actually...
Maddox moved, but he moved to help her up. Kimberly had stumbled into the wrong direction and her head almost hit the armrest of his wheelchair.
Just as she was about to hit her head, Maddox grabbed her by the other arm and pulled her into his embrace accurately.
Sam let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately she didn't hit her head...
Seeing the stunned look of those subordinates, Sam secretly grinned. He even heard Young Master Yardley flirting with her before, so this... was not enough to make him surprised.
Kimberly's soft cheek hit on Maddox's hard chest. After falling into Maddox's arms, she did not move. After a long time, she finally uttered a muffled groan, "It hurts..."
Maddox's brows twitched when he heard that.
This d*mn woman, she had just crashed onto him like that. She would have ruined her face if he hadn't helped her. It was okay if she didn't feel grateful for him, but how could she still cry out in pain?
"How could you... be so hard?" Kimberly complained angrily again. Her little hands were clenched into fists as she punched hard onto his chest. "B*stard, it hurts so much!"
Maddox:"..."
The subordinates were all speechless.
Sam couldn't help but feel a slight ache on his temples. Was she completely drunk? Otherwise, she wouldn't even have the guts to treat Maddox this way.
But he had never expected that drunk Kimberly would be such a different person.
Sam felt that drunk Kimberly was... kind of adorable?
"You didn't answer my question!" Kimberly was still beating his chest as she asked. Even though her strength wasn't at all great to hurt Maddox, yet it was still a very embarrassing scene.
Maddox held her wrist and scolded coldly, "Woman, you'd better behave yourself!"
"Why do you care about my business?" Kimberly suddenly raised her head and asked loudly, as if she didn't understand what he said. For a moment, she looked up at him and her face was very close to his.
Their breaths were enveloping them both.
Her sweet fragrance had a little smell of alcohol, yet she didn't smell bad at all. On the contrary, it excited him even more.
Maddox held his breath, examining the face that was right in front of his.
She did not have the habit of putting makeup, and her skin was always in a good state. Her skin was fair and glowing, and it looked exceptionally tender. Her red and attractive lips especially, they... seemed to be tempting him to do something...
Maddox's eyes became darker. He lowered his voice and put his hand on Kimberly's waist. He said in a low voice, "Come nearer if you dare."
Maddox thought that his threat would work on her, but he didn't know what a drunkard was like.
Alcohol gave people courage. The more he provoked her, the more excited she became.
Kimberly, after hearing Maddox's words, became even more excited. So she moved closer again, and there was almost no gap between the two of them.
"I'm getting nearer."
Kimberly said in an adorable way as she approached him again.
Her voice was soft, like marshmallows. Its sweetness was intoxicating Maddox's heart.
Maddox's breathing became heavier. He gritted his teeth and glared at her.
"You're playing with fire!"
This d*mned woman, he didn't expect that she would be so charming when she was drunk. She almost drove him crazy!
"Fire? Where?" Kimberly laughed and suddenly reached out to pinch Maddox's chin. She laughed out in a low voice and said, "You haven't answered my question yet. Maddox, don't you hate me? Why... do you care about me over and over again?"
