Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 320

Valeria was stunned, then she moved aside to move out of Benedict's sight. She explained softly, "Miss Shell woke up this morning. She has had some soup and her condition is stable now."

Kimberly was still a little pale, but he could see that she was in a much better state of mind compared to the previous night when she had a high fever.

Benedict's pale thin lips curved upwards but his lips looked dry, "I'm glad to hear that."

"Please have some water," Valeria said.

He did not move, but just stared at Kimberly.

Kimberly was also looking at him. She just wanted to see if he was fine, but his burning gaze made her feel very embarrassed. At this moment, Valeria held a glass of water in front of him but he didn't take it. Instead, he just kept staring at Kimberly.

Feeling awkward, Kimberly coughed and then got out of bed.

She walked to Valeria who handed the glass to her with a smile. Kimberly looked at her and happened to meet Valeria's gaze. Valeria gave her a friendly gaze and said, "I'm going out to buy something. I'll be right back."

After saying that, she left in her high heels, walking in long strides.

A hint of a smile flashed in Benedict's eyes. Valeria did know what he wanted. "Have some water," Kimberly handed the glass to him.

Benedict said nothing, nor did he take the cup. He just quietly gazed at her.

"Emn, aren't you thirsty?" Kimberly paused and felt a little overwhelmed.

"I don't have the energy," Benedict replied in a flat voice.

After listening to his words, Kimberly didn't understand what he meant at first, but then she realized Benedict was asking her to feed him.

Kimberly blushed. Under Benedict's gaze, she was so embarrassed that she nervously put the cup on the table.

Noticing her action, Benedict's eyes turned dim. After a while, his thin lips moved, but he couldn't say a word.

The atmosphere in the ward was extremely awkward. With their relationship, it was simply impossible for Kimberly to feed him water. She could only bring him the glass and let him drink it.

"How about... I go call for the nurse," Kimberly said

Speaking of this, Kimberly seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw. She suddenly turned around and wanted to go out to call the nurse. Benedict looked at her back with a weird expression on his face. In order to avoid feeding him water herself, she actually tried to look for a nurse for help.

"Come back," Benedict called out in a weak voice.

She came to a stop and turned back to look at him. She bit her lips gently. She looked so pathetic as if Benedict had made a particularly difficult request. However, he also knew that he was indeed making things difficult for her.

Thinking of this, Benedict smiled slightly and chuckled, "I was just joking with you, and you want to find a nurse?"

"I..." Kimberly stammered.

"Just now I was in the mood for a joke, so I said that. I didn't really mean it... I'm sorry," he added.

Hearing this, Kimberly looked up at him. After seeing the apologetic gaze in his eyes, she was embarrassed and lowered her eyes. "The person who should say sorry is me. You saved me and did so much for me, yet I..."

She wasn't even willing to feed him water.

But... she really couldn't do it!

Benedict didn't want to make things difficult for her anymore. He got up and reached for the glass on the table. Seeing this, Kimberly quickly walked over, picked up the cup and handed it to him.

Benedict accidentally touched Kimberly's hand when he took the glass. Kimberly was startled and quickly pulled her hand back. Fortunately, Benedict had already grabbed hold of the glass of water. When he noticed Kimberly's reaction, his eyes darkened.

He brought the glass of water to his lips and took a few sips and moistened his throat before saying, "I won't do anything outrageous. You don't have to be so afraid of me."

Kimberly didn't say anything. She just stood there in embarrassment and shifted her gaze to the side

After Benedict finished drinking the water, she reached out to take it. Benedict said, "Go back and have a rest."

"I'm sorry..." After a long while, she apologized to Benedict, then turned around and was about to go back to her bed.

Benedict looked at her back and suddenly called out, "Kimberly."

Upon hearing that, Kimberly halted but did not look back.

"Are you going back to him?" He asked.

Kimberly was silent for a moment, then turned back and answered, "Have I ever left him? I still have a lot to talk to him about. I have to ask him what is going

on.

"After that? I saw the divorce contract," Benedict said.

Kimberly clenched her hands

subconsciously and she gritted her teeth.

"He already wants to divorce you. If you go find him again, aren't you going to let him step on your dignity?" He added.

"He won't do this for no reason. I believe there must be a reason behind this. Benedict, you've saved me. I won't run away anymore. I'll only go look for him after I'm discharged from the hospital," Kimberly replied.

After saying that, Kimberly went back to her bed and did not talk with Benedict anymore.

Benedict looked at her. He couldn't figure out what he was feeling, but he felt bitterness in his mind.

He did not know how long this feeling would last.

His beloved woman was right in front of him but he had to give her up to another man. Furthermore, that man didn't even cherish her.

This made Benedict very angry. If he could, he really wanted to take Kimberly away by force. He wanted to bring her somewhere far away so that she would not see Maddox again.

However, he couldn't help but consider her feelings.

If she cried to him and showed him a pained expression, he would feel... like he had done something sinful.

"I guess I'll have to help her out then," he said to himself.

If he could help her get everything she wanted and watch her live happily, he would probably be... satisfied with that.

Thinking of this, Benedict made up his mind.

After staying in the hospital for two whole days, Benedict said he wanted to be discharged from the hospital. Kimberly and Valeria were surprised when they heard the news because he was still seriously injured. The doctor said that he would have to stay in the hospital for at least five days. However, now, he wanted to be discharged in two days' time.

"Why do you want to leave the hospital so soon? I've already settled everything in the company. You may take a few more days off," Valeria said in a hurry. Kimberly stood next to him and looked at him guiltily. She asked, "You don't think you're confining me by being hospitalized, so you want to be discharged early, don't you?"

Benedict said with a faint smile, "Hey, why will you think that? I am a man. These are just some external wounds. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to stay hospitalized for too long."
