Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 81

In the hospital.

After examining Kimberly, the doctor turned to Maddox and said, "The patient must have been frightened."

Frightened? Maddox Yardley narrowed his eyes. She was in the room the whole time. How could she be frightened? Could it be...

Maddox remembered that the villa was dark when he arrived.

Was she afraid of the dark?

"The patient must have been tremendously shocked, which caused her to hallucinate. So..."

Sam Sorrento glanced at Kimberly who was lying on the bed with a strange look. He asked doubtfully, "It's normal for ordinary people to be afraid of the dark, but even if they have a phobia of the dark, they wouldn't have been so frightened like she was, right? Doctor, could she be injured?"

"I have already run the tests. There are no other abnormalities apart from her low blood pressure and weak body. However, isn't she pregnant? She must not be frightened like this in the future. I found that she had some symptoms of habitual abortion. If this kind of situation happens frequently in the future, it will lead to a miscarriage.

"But doctor, why did she become like this?"

Sam explained the situation at that time to the doctor in detail. The doctor thought about it for a moment and then said again, "The patient may have experienced trauma in a similar environment before. This may be the reason why the psychological damage was much more severe on her than on any ordinary people."

"Trauma?" Sam looked at Maddox subconsciously.

Maddox pursed his lips and his gaze fell on Kimberly. He remained silent.

"Doctor, when will she wake up?"

"We should let her rest for the time being. The patient must return to her normal state before she could wake up."

Sam was shocked. What if the patient couldn't return to her normal state? He almost blurted out this question but he immediately restrained himself.

After the doctor left, there were only three people left in the ward.

"Young Master, I don't think Assistant Shell.... is going to wake up tonight."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sam felt that the atmosphere in the ward had turned cold. He quickly took two steps backwards and said, "Ah, I'm going to check if Auntie Cherry is already here."

After saying that, Sam left the ward immediately. Finally, the ward was in complete silence. Maddox had been staring at Kimberly's pale face. His gaze never wavered.

What the h*ll was going on?

She was traumatized by the dark? Kimberly Shell had a long dream.

She became a little girl again and she was around four or five years old in the dream. She was locked in a small dark room. There was no light, water or food.

There was only one small bed, covered with a thin quilt.

She curled herself up in the corner. Once in a while, there would be some noise outside which would scare her. She was very sensitive and she would tremble every time she heard the noise.

She had been starving for three days. Her little body was so thin and skinny. Her eyes were sunken and lifeless. She didn't look like any child of her age. She did not look like a human being at all!

Creak—

The door was pushed open. A figure approached her and gave her a hard slap!

The little Kimberly couldn't stand the pain and screamed hopelessly.

"How dare you scream! You are not earning any money for the family! How dare you scream!"

"Ahhhh!".

"I'll make you suffer today. Such a disobedient child. I'll make you listen to me!"

"No... Please stop... It hurts... Don't hit me..."

Kimberly, who had been lying in the hospital bed, suddenly cried out, breaking the silence in the quiet ward. Maddox immediately turned his gaze to her. "Don't hit me, it hurts... Mom..."

Maddox rolled his wheelchair closer to her and bent over slightly. When he heard the words coming out of her mouth, he frowned slightly.

"Don't hit me?"

"It hurts?"

Maddox seemed to get a glimpse of some important clues from these two phrases. Meanwhile, Kimberly was still in a coma. She had blurted out those words unconsciously, and most of them

sounded incoherent.

Maddox frowned slightly and instinctively touched her forehead. His fingers slowly caressed the corner of her eyes and wiped her tears away.

Her refined facial features were twisted in agony.

This feeling... It must hurt, right?

"Wake up!" Maddox yelled as his tone became serious all of a sudden.

"It hurts... it hurts..." Kimberly uttered the phrase over and over again. Seeing her in agony, Maddox suddenly grasped her slender wrist with his big hand and said, "Wake up! Don't live in the dream!"

Perhaps he was using too much strength, Kimberly frowned even more. She continued crying out in pain, but her eyes were opened this time.

Without warning, her eyes met with Maddox's. Maddox instantaneously let go of his hand and there was a bruise on Kimberly's white wrist.

However, before Maddox could say anything to her, Kimberly closed her eyes and fainted once again. Maddox was rendered speechless.

But this time, Kimberly no longer cried out in pain. The expression on her face returned to normal.

What did she look like before this?

Although Maddox hadn't seen a dead person before, Kimberly looked as if she was already dead. She was laying there silently and motionlessly and her face was lifeless and pale.

She looked different now. She was still lying in bed with her eyes closed, but she looked lively.

Maddox heaved a sigh of relief and looked at her wrist. He reached out his hands again and gently rubbed on her bruise. His action was so gentle that he didn't even notice it himself.

About fifteen minutes later, Sam brought Auntie Cherry to the ward. When Auntie Cherry came in and saw that Kimberly was lying in the hospital bed again, her eyes were filled with pity.

"Why is the Second Young Madam so weak? What happened? She was just hospitalized not long ago and now she's here again."

"Please take good care of her," Maddox told Auntie Cherry. After that, he rolled his wheelchair and went outside. Sam quickly followed after him.

"Young Master?"

"Get me all the information you could find about Kimberly Shell, including all of the details of her past. Find out everything."

Sam froze. "Young Master? Why are you suddenly looking into Assistant Shell's information? Didn't she... " marry you on behalf of the other person? They would be getting a divorce in another six months. What was the purpose of looking for her information?

"I want it by tomorrow morning,"

Sam's expression immediately changed. "What? You want it by tomorrow morning, so I have to do it overnight..."

"Is there a problem?" Maddox asked.

Maddox's sharp glance was fixed onto Sam.

Sam straightened his back and said, "No problem. Absolutely no problem!"

"I'll send you the information by tomorrow morning!"

Although he had said so, it would be extremely tiring for him to search for all of the information in a matter of hours.

They had been quite busy through the night, and it was already past 10 o'clock. He was exhausted, and yet he still needed to search for Kimberly's information.

The next morning, after Maddox got up and washed himself, Sam sent him the information as he had requested.

"Young Master, I have found the information that you had asked for last night. I think there's a reason why Assistant Shell reacted like that. Please take a look at it."

After that, Sam handed over the documents to Maddox. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Maddox frowned, "Why?"
