Chapter 97
This made Maddox extremely unhappy.
He wanted to punish Kimberly because he saw her with another man.
It annoyed him very much, so when he saw her, he would humiliate her intuitively.
However, she had become so obedient now. She was so docile that she looked like a lifeless puppet. Maddox's annoyance got even more intense.
What could he ask her to call him?
Maddox sneered, "Didn't you usually call my name directly? Why are you pretending to be obedient now?"
With her gaze down, Kimberly answered politely, "I will take note about it in the future."
"Come here!" Maddox yelled as she was driving him crazy.
Kimberly paused for a moment and finally took a step forward to walk towards him.
"My order for you is to push me back now," Maddox uttered.
"Okay," Kimberly nodded as she walked to his back, expressionless. Then, she pushed his wheelchair forward.
Obviously, Maddox's face clouded over. He felt upset as if someone owed him a tremendous amount of debt. While one of them was gloomy, the other was despondent. As they passed through the hall, their aura left everyone else stunned.
Upon seeing that the two of them were in a bad mood, the servants quickly stayed away from them.
Kimberly managed to push Maddox back to his room and said, "Here we are. I'll go clean myself up if there's nothing else."
After that, Kimberly went to her wardrobe to get her clothes. To her surprise, the clothes in the closet were all given by Maddox. As soon as she caught the sight of them, she had an urge to close the wardrobe, and she did.
But before she could close it, her hand was held by someone.
Kimberly turned around and found that it was Maddox.
He stopped her from closing the wardrobe and stared at her coldly.
"Are you so disgusted by the clothes I bought for you that you don't even want to wear them?" Maddox asked.
Kimberly took a step back and whispered, "Are you kidding me, Young Master Yardley? Our relationship is a deal. I can't accept these clothes."
After that, Kimberly turned to leave. When she passed by Maddox, he grabbed her arm.
"What if I insist you wear them?" Maddox uttered.
Kimberly frowned, glancing at his hand on her wrist.
After a while, she nodded and said, "Okay."
Maddox let go of her hand. Then, Kimberly went up to pick up a set of clothes randomly and then went into the bathroom.

D*mn it!
He wanted her to wear the clothes he bought, but even if she promised to wear them, he was not satisfied.
After Kimberly entered the bathroom, the sound of splashing water came from the bathroom. Soon, her cell phone on the bed started to ring. She could not hear the ringtone since she was still showering. At first, Maddox pretended that he did not hear it.
However, her phone rang again and again. Maddox sneered and pushed himself over to her phone in his wheelchair.
He picked up her mobile phone and took a look at the screen. When he saw that the caller ID was a strange number, he picked it up.
Before Maddox could speak, the man on the other end said eagerly, "Kimberly, you are finally willing to answer my call."
Kimberly? Maddox narrowed his eyes intimidatingly. The way he called her was so intimate!
However, the man on the other end was not aware that Maddox had answered the call, and he continued to say gently, "Kimberly, are you willing to forgive me? I didn't mean what I said in the hospital during the day. I was just bullshitting. Don't be angry with me, please."
"Kimberly, I miss you. I miss our past very much. Can you... give me another chance?" the man added.
"Kimberly? Why don't you say anything?" the man asked.
Maddox sneered. Well, it turned out that this was her ex-husband that embraced himself to come and catch up to her. Maddox moved the phone away to check the phone number on the screen.
Then, he put it to his ear again and said sarcastically, "Are you begging for a chance to die?"
The man paused for a moment and the phone call was ended after a while.
Obviously, that man was frightened so he hung up the phone at once. He wanted to reconcile with Kimberly, but he was too timid.
Oh boy, how did such a man have the charm to make that stupid woman fall in love with him? Maddox thought.
Was she brainless? She still wanted to raise his child after she had remarried another man?
Child...
Realizing that she was still pregnant with her ex-husband's child, Maddox's eyes glinted. The reason why she had been protecting the child must be that she still had feelings towards her ex- husband.
If her ex- husband came to ask for reconciliation, would she agree as well?
When he thought that she might reconcile with her d*mned ex-husband, Maddox felt that he was about to explode.
He took out his mobile phone and called Sam. "Tell me the address of this number. It was Kimberly Shell's ex- husband. Give me all his information," Maddox ordered.
Sam was a little surprised when he received a phone call from Maddox to check the information of Kimberly's ex-husband. "Young Master Yardley, what's the purpose of investigating the ex-husband of Assistant Shell? He doesn't matter to us, does he?" Sam asked.
"Just do as I say. What's the point of talking so much nonsense?" Maddox retorted.
Maddox hung up Sam's phone right after that. Even if Sam was doubtful at the moment, he could only hold the questions back.
Kimberly took a quick shower. By the time she came out, no one was talking in the room. However, Maddox was still beside her bed, so she walked over and took a look at him.
Maddox's gaze fell on her.
She was wearing a light pink silk dress, and her beautiful collar bone was exposed. After taking a shower, her skin appeared fair and tender. Maddox was stunned by just looking at her.
Finally, when he saw her wearing the clothes he bought, his feelings were indescribable.
"What are you doing here?" Kimberly asked as she walked over, realizing that the mobile phone on the bed was gone.
When she looked again, it turned out that Maddox was holding it.
"What do you want to do with my mobile phone? Give it back to me!" Kimberly was shocked and she took two steps forward to retrieve her phone. Her movements were hasty, implying that she was panicked.
Looking at Kimberly's nervous expression, Maddox narrowed his eyes intimidatingly. Then, he swiftly hid the phone in his shirt, out of her reach.
"Why are you so nervous? Is there anything I can't see on your phone?" Maddox asked.
Hearing this, Kimberly stopped and realized something. She bit her lower lip and said, "Young Master Yardley, you are not confiscating my mobile phone, are you?"
The phone contained a conversation history between her and Sylvia. If he saw their conversation, it would expose her child's secret. Thinking of this, Kimberly's face turned pale.
"So what if I am confiscating it?" 'Maddox said. "You are my woman, so your things also belong to me. What can you do if I confiscate your phone?" he added.
Kimberly said, "You can't do this. Give my mobile phone back to me."
"Give it back to you?" Maddox smirked. "Sure, but..." he said.
"What is your requisite?" Kimberly asked as she knew that there must be some terms and conditions by judging on his expression. "As long as you return my mobile phone, I'm willing to do anything," she said.
She could not let anyone else discover that she was having a baby with an unknown man. "Are you really willing to do anything? If that's the case, come here. Kiss me and I'll give the phone back to you," Maddox said.
