After a long silence, Maddox let go of her with an indifferent smile.
He said, "Well, if this is what you want, then I will fulfill your wish."
As soon as Maddox finished speaking, he pushed her away. Kimberly staggered backwards and looked at him in shock.
"I, Maddox Yardley, doesn't bother to have a woman who has second thoughts," he said sarcastically. He curled his lips up into a mocking smile, and his eyes were full of contempt. He added, "It's just that you taste good. Since you are so reluctant, you should stay away from me in the future."
Kimberly responded, "...I know."
She pulled up her dress silently. Before going out, she glanced at the coat on the ground, asking, "Can you lend me the coat to wear again? I will return it to you when we return home at night."
"Lend you?" Maddox twitched his lips, "I might think about it if you beg me."
Forget it.
Kimberly turned around and strode out of the office. When she returned to her seat and sat down, her chest was still undulating. She was still breathing heavily.
She kept thinking about what Maddox said. She.... tasted good? As expected, he only loved her body.
And to think that previously, she had thought that he actually liked her.
Now that she thought about it, how could she be so stupid? How could she have such a thought?
It was so ridiculous. The sun would rise from the west before that ever happened.
The zipper behind her skirt was broken and she couldn't pull it up. Therefore, she couldn't get out. Maddox also didn't want to lend her the coat, so she could only sit in her seat and stare blankly into space.
After a while, the elevator door opened suddenly.
A delicate figure sneaked out of it and looked around.
When Kimberly heard the noise, she looked over and saw Vera from the Finance Department.
What was she doing here?
While she was pondering on that question, Vera noticed her and hurried over.
"Is she looking for me?" Kimberly thought to herself.
"Hey!" Vera hurried towards her. She looked around to make sure they were alone, and then she asked bluntly, "Did you use the money already?"
The money? Recalling what had happened that afternoon, Kimberly shook her head and replied, "Not yet."
"Why? Didn't you need it for some business deal? Why didn't you use it? Are you lying?" Vera asked doubtfully.
Since she had approved to provide Kimberly tens of thousands of dollars, she had been anxious the entire night. She was constantly afraid that she and her father would suffer the consequences if Kimberly could not pay back the money.
the Yardley Corporation was not like any other small companies. In a place like the Yardley Corporation, you were fired the moment you made a mistake.
By then, which company would dare to hire them again?
Therefore, Vera hurriedly asked Kimberly if she had used the money. She needed the receipt.
"I'm not lying. It's just that something special happened at noon, but..." Kimberly thought for a moment. There was no use for her to keep the money now. Moreover, Vera was obviously very anxious. Kimberly decided to return the money to Vera, to make her feel at ease.
She opened her bag and took out a card.
"Here you go."
Vera reached out quickly and took it. She glanced at it and confirmed with her again, "Have you really not used it?"
Kimberly nodded and said, "Yes, you can register it when you go back."
