"Ah! What are you doing?" Kimberly exclaimed and tried to turn her head to look at her back.
"Don't move." Maddox frowned and looked at the zipper in confusion. He didn't understand how it broke. "Let me see what's going on," he said.
Kimberly was furious. How could she leave the restroom later if the zipper was broken?
When she thought of how all her plans would be destroyed, she was outraged. Her heart felt as if it was being gripped tightly.
"There's no need to look at it. Maddox, you did it on purpose, didn't you?" Kimberly questioned with a grime face.
Maddox was still looking at it, but when he heard her words, his hands stilled. He lifted his eyelids slightly and stared at her with his dark eyes, asking, "Do you take me as that kind of person?"
"What else?" Kimberly was so pissed that her eyes turned red as she spoke, "Do you know how much effort I've put in for today? This is the first time I have seriously discussed a business since I joined the Yardley Corporation. Can't you take things more seriously? Why do you have to come out and make trouble, and even accuse me of seducing men? Anyway, in your eyes, I am just a whore who only thinks about seducing men, right?"
As she spoke angrily, Maddox's eyes gradually darkened with each word she uttered. Kimberly's eyes were red and brimming with tears. When she straightened her back and was about to turn around, Maddox put a piece of suit jacket around her body. She stopped moving and turned her head, looking at him in surprise.
"You can wear this for now," he explained.
After giving her the suit jacket, there was only a white blouse left on Maddox's body. There was a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
He wanted her to wear his suit jacket?
Although she didn't want to, she was also very helpless. She couldn't go out with her naked back now, could she?
In the end, Kimberly could only give him a ferocious stare. Then, she pulled the jacket tighter around her body, opened the door and rushed out.
It just so happened that the restaurant manager had called someone to come over. Just as he was about to open the door, it was opened from the inside. Then, a girl rushed out of the restroom, her eyes were red.
"Huh? How did you come out from the inside? Wasn't the lock broken..." However, he stopped speaking when he saw Maddox. The restaurant manager looked back at the fast-moving figure and then at Maddox, who was sitting in the wheelchair.
He suddenly realized what was going on...
Could it be that they were...
Before the thought came to his mind, Maddox glanced at him. The intense pressure rendered the restaurant manager speechless. When he fixed his gaze on Maddox, the manager's face changed dramatically and thought, "Isn't this President Yardley?"
He didn't expect him to be here...
"President, President Yardley!" The restaurant manager exclaimed in a nervous stutter.
Maddox pursed his lips coldly and asked in a light voice, "What did you see just now?"
The restaurant manager answered hurriedly, "I didn't see anything."
"Ha." Maddox smiled with satisfaction, "Well done. I'll give you a bonus at the end of this year."
The restaurant manager smiled flatteringly, "Thank you, President Yardley. I have to find someone to fix the door lock since it is broken. President Yardley, you can go ahead with your business first."
Maddox glanced at him, acknowledging that the man was quite smart. He then straightened his tie and then left in his wheelchair.
After he left, the restaurant manager looked back at the two people following him and ordered, "Hurry up and fix the door lock."
The two men rolled their eyes inwardly and thought, "This lock is still good, how can we fix it? Should we repair it with air?"

When Kimberly reappeared at the table, she had a man's jacket on her shoulders.
Juliette looked at her strangely as she wondered, "Wasn't she in the restroom? Why did she..." Quill was calmer than Juliette, he glanced at the jacket and then looked away.
Not long after Kimberly came in, Maddox returned as well. The suit jacket on his body had disappeared. Juliette blinked her eyes and a light bulb flashed in her mind.
