Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 264

Quill was a mysterious person. As such, ordinary people could not read his mind

Even Juliette, who had been following him for quite a long time still couldn’t seem to guess his thoughts, never mind Kimberly who had just met him.

Both of them had their own thoughts.

Kimberly didn’t have really complicated thoughts, and she just followed her heart. To her, Quill was indeed like an elder brother.

She felt peculiar about it. After all... there had never been a man who gave her this kind of feeling.

On the contrary, Quill was able to do so. Kimberly then persuaded herself, perhaps it was because he was Sylvia's big brother.

Thinking of this, Kimberly felt relieved, then answered Quill's question in a soft voice.

"I have my parents and a younger sister at home."

"You have a younger sister?" Quill pursed his lips. "So you've been living with them since you were a child?"

Kimberly was stunned when she heard that. She nodded. "Of course."

Quill was lost in his own thoughts; it was exactly the same as the information that Juliette got. She had lived with her parents since young, and even when she was kidnapped by the traffickers, they did not exchange her with another person either.

Nonetheless... What went wrong?

If she was really the daughter of the Shell family, how could Kimberly look so much like her when they were quiet?

Could it be said that there were two people in the world who were not related to each other but who looked and acted similarly?

Quill remained silent and his eyes narrowed. He was obviously thinking about something.

The car was quiet again, and Kimberly wore the suit jacket, remaining silent.

They passed by traffic lights and tall buildings along the way. By the time Kimberly came back to her senses, the car had stopped not far from the Yardley family home.

"Miss Shell, in order to prevent other people from gossiping, I can only drop you here," Juliette turned to her with a smile.

Kimberly glanced out of the window and she saw a familiar intersection. She looked at Juliette with great gratitude. Before she opened the door and got out of the car, she took off the blazer and returned it to Quill. "Mr. Hanover, thank you very much for today. I'll leave first. If there is a chance, I'll treat you for a meal next time."

He brightened when he heard that she was going to treat him to a meal. He nodded. "I'll be free in two days."

Kimberly paused for a moment, then gave a small smile. "Okay, I'll contact you then." After Kimberly left, Juliette couldn't resist asking, "Mr. Hanover, aren't you being too direct?"

Quill raised his eyebrows and glanced at Juliette. "How was that direct?"

Juliette tugged her lips awkwardly and shook her head. "It’s nothing. You have your own thoughts. However, there is one thing I don't understand."

After saying that, Juliette ordered the driver to turn around.

Quill's gaze was still fixed on the slender figure that was going far. "Do you have any questions about my attitude towards her?"

Juliette nodded.

"Yes, I've been with you for so many years. It's my first time seeing you... treat a woman like this... I'm just puzzled."

"You don't have to be confused about that." Quill stared at her indifferently. "This has nothing to do with you."

Upon listening to his words, Juliette felt that it was inappropriate for her to ask further. Thinking of this, Juliette smiled faintly and nodded, "Yes. If you say so, then it is as you say."

Quill lowered his dark eyes. He thought of something, ordering her, "Go and find out all the information on the Shell family and whatever that happened in the past."

Juliette was shocked when she heard that. "Should I find out everything about the Shell family?"

“You should investigate this matter first. Tell me if you find out anything. I do not want to miss each and every detail."

"Yes, I will do so!" Although Juliette was shocked, she did not argue with Quill's order. It was impossible for her to question his decisions, thus she could only nod her head in agreement.

While the driver made a U-turn, Juliette looked up at the slender figure walking alone in the distance outside. Kimberly's long hair swayed in the cool breeze, and her thin body was swaying as if she was going to get blown away by the wind.

Kimberly was on the way back to the Yardley family house alone.

As all the areas nearby belonged to the Yardley family, there was no sign of other residents along the road. The area was transformed into lush greenery. There were street lights along the way, and the warm lights shone on Kimberly, as she walked slowly step by step.

It was a long journey. Kimberly suddenly paused as she looked at the front and her vision seemed to get blurry.

Was this the way home?

She didn't even know for herself which was the way home.

All of a sudden, the sound of a vehicle behind broke the silence but Kimberly did not look back. Finally, the car stopped beside her and a familiar voice spoke, "What are you doing here?"

Kimberly's shoulders shrank when she heard that voice, then she walked forward without looking That was certainly Maddox's voice.

Why was he here?

"Stop right there!" Maddox scolded, yet Kimberly refused to listen and continued her journey.

"Do you want me to get out of the car and walk with you?" Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

It was only then that Kimberly stopped there, and she turned to Maddox.

He was staring at her coldly.

"Get in the car."

Kimberly remained motionless for a moment and hesitated to get in the car.

He glared at her intensely.

The two of them experienced a feeling of awkwardness for a while, then Maddox instructed unexpectedly, "Open the door."

Sam, who was in front, followed his orders and opened the door for him as he queried, "Young Master Yardley, do you want to get out of the car? Even so..."

"It's not far away from here. You can go back first."

Maddox pushed the wheelchair out of the car alone and then ordered in a cold voice.

Sam nodded his head obediently.

After the car drove away, there was another person under the lonely streetlights.

Maddox sat in his wheelchair beside her. "If you want to walk, I can accompany you," he mentioned indifferently in a strange tone. Maddox wanted to force her to get into the car at first, then he thought of what Sam had said to him in the afternoon.

Perhaps, this was an opportunity for him to transform into a gentleman.

He was willing to make an exception again and again for her.

Kimberly looked at Maddox who was sitting in the wheelchair. She was taken aback, replying, "When did I say that I wanted a company? I can walk on my own."

After that, Kimberly turned around and left.

Maddox commented callously, "Come and push my wheelchair."

"Why do I have to?"

Maddox sneered and exclaimed, "I got out of the car because of you! You stupid woman!"

Stupid woman?

She felt a sudden flush of anger. This was the first time that he had scolded her in such a manner. He was always scolding her with harsh words. Wasn't he going overboard? Why did he have to call her stupid?

Kimberly gritted her teeth in rage, "Do it yourself!"
