Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 125

"Do you not live a good life there?"

Erica's question echoed in her mind, and Kimberly didn't know what to say.

She couldn't say that her life was awful. Maddox treated her well sometimes. Although he looked evil on the surface, he was actually helping her.

But she couldn't say that her life was excellent either. She was broke, and she couldn't do many things.

"Kimberly?"

Kimberly came to her senses and answered with a smile, "Don't ask so much. Your friends are still waiting for you, aren't they? You can go first."

Erica blinked. "Well, then... I'll go to my friends first," Erica put the remaining 1,000 dollars into her wallet and said cautiously.

"Go ahead, I have to go back too," Kimberly said.

After that, the two of them separated. After Kimberly left, Erica took out a bank card from her wallet and turned to look at Kimberly's retreating back with a sneer.

"You're so stupid," Erica teased.

She put the bank card between her fingers and kissed it. She smiled and muttered,

"You're moved just by 2,000 dollars. You're really an idiot!" After that, Erica put away the bank card and then turned to leave.

Kimberly returned home with 1,000 dollars, but she was still worried. She was going to meet the president of an organization. 1,000 dollars wouldn't be enough to even get into the restaurant she had booked. How could she still have the money to treat him to dinner?

But the task that Maddox assigned to her...

Kimberly took off her shoes and laid on her quilt, feeling very depressed.

After thinking for a while, she resorted to texting Sylvia. But after she typed the text message, Kimberly stopped.

Sylvia was already very busy finding someone for her. If she borrowed money from her now... wouldn't it cause her more trouble?

Even if she was her best friend, she couldn't ask her for help again and again.

Thinking of this, Kimberly locked her phone screen and buried her face in her pillow.

"Have you failed to carry out the task?"

Suddenly, Kimberly heard a cold male voice behind her. Her body stiffened and she turned around abruptly.

Maddox appeared behind her. Kimberly's expression changed slightly and asked, "Why... Why do you always appear without making a sound?"

Maddox knocked on his wheelchair and asked back, "Without making a sound?" Kimberly didn't know what to say.

Indeed, his wheelchair made a lot of sounds when he moved. She was just too focused on her own issues. "What did you just ask me?" She then asked.

"What happened to the task I assigned to you?" Maddox asked again.

Kimberly was stunned. He was referring to the cooperation with the Hanover Corporation. She took a look at Maddox tentatively. Should she ask him for the money this time? And then deduct it from her salary?

"Urn... I want to borrow some money from you!" Kimberly suddenly said.

Maddox narrowed his eyes and raised his eyebrows, repeating, "Borrow money?"

He curled up his lips slowly, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

After hiding for so long, was she finally going to reveal her true colors?

"Yes." Kimberly nodded heavily. She hesitated when she spoke, probably out of embarrassment, "I contacted the Hanover Corporation's people. They said that they wanted a meeting with me at noon the day after tomorrow. I have to invite them to lunch, but I have no money left..."
