Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 108

Maddox's hand paused in the air. He frowned and stared at her.

"What's wrong with this woman?" He thought.

Kimberly remained silent. She got under the quilt quickly and covered the marks on her neck.

When Maddox saw her covering up the marks, he looked a little unhappy and his fingers stopped in mid-air.

"What are you doing?" Maddox questioned.

Kimberly hid under the quilt, exposing only her head. She looked at him with a pair of flustered eyes.

"Last, last night you..." She stammered and couldn't speak.

Maddox stared at her sharply and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Last night, was it you..." Kimberly wanted to bite her lower lip, but when she thought of his words earlier, she controlled herself.

"Was it me what?" Maddox asked impatiently. He knew that she had lost her mind during that time and might not even know who he was. That was why he had asked her who he was at the most crucial moment to confirm her consent. When she could call out his name even when she was unconscious, he had a very strange feeling in his heart.

Therefore, when she asked the question, he was not sure if she remembered what had happened last night.

Kimberly stared at him for a moment, asking, "When I asked you to leave, did you leave?"

She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Maddox's eyes remained sharp and he responded, "No."

"No?" Kimberly's gaze quivered. "You didn't leave? Then you..."

If he didn't leave, then... Kimberly paused for a while, and asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"

The blue veins on Maddox's forehead bulged and twitched. He narrowed his eyes and sized up the woman in front of him. Her eyes were filled with fear as if she was worried about him. She obviously didn't know what had happened last night. She was more concerned about him than about herself.

"Don't you know whether I am alright?" Maddox questioned in return.

"Urn..."

"What happened last night? Do you remember anything?" Maddox finally asked.

His question made Kimberly speechless. She lowered her eyes and seemed to be in deep thought. After a while, she said, "Last night... I only remember that you entered the room. But Chandler has told someone to lit the incense in the room. As long as you came in... you will... will..."

"I will what?" Maddox narrowed his eyes and stared at her. Kimberly was embarrassed, and her fair cheeks were tinted red.

"Say it," Maddox did not intend to let her go.

Kimberly avoided his gaze and whispered, "Don't you know about the incense? If you inhaled it, you will also feel uncomfortable, just like being drugged. But aren't you..." Weren't you impotent? Of course, Kimberly didn't say it out loud.

Instead, she said, "Chandler listened to the rumors and thought that you... Therefore, he wanted to exact revenge on you. Are you really... alright?"

"That Chandler..." Maddox thought for a long time before he realized what was going on.

He was so pissed that he gnashed his teeth. Last night, he tried so hard to save her, but she had forgotten all about it. Now, she thought he was impotent and worried that Chandler's incense would make him unable to vent his desire?

"Young Master Yardley?" Kimberly called him when she noticed his silence.

Maddox came to his senses and rolled the wheelchair closer to her, asking, "Are you worried about my health?"

Kimberly paused for a moment, then shook her head and replied, "I just feel that they used me to lure you there, so... there is a sense of guilt. Don't misunderstand me, Young Master Yardley."

Maddox chuckled and pulled her out of the quilt abruptly.
