Maddox's sudden and harsh voice startled Kimberly Shell. She pinched the bath towel on her body and then walked slowly towards Maddox.
However, Kimberly stopped when they were still a distance away.
She bit her lower lip.
"What's the matter?"
"Help me get on the bed," Maddox Yardley said in a cold voice. There was no emotion in his face.
Kimberly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he just wanted her to help him to get on the bed. However, she was only wearing a bath towel, and it would fall if she was not careful. Kimberly asked pleadingly, "Could you give me a minute to change my clothes? I'll help you right after. I... forgot to bring my clothes in."
Maddox didn't say anything. He just stared at her.
Kimberly pinched a corner of the bath towel and bit her lower lip, "I'll be done in a moment."
He still remained silent. Kimberly knew that it would be impossible for her to help him while clad in a bath towel. Seeing that Maddox did not answer her, she tiptoed slowly to her clothes. When Maddox didn't move, she turned around and ran to the bedside to pick up the clothes she had prepared in advance and rushed into the bathroom.
She rushed out of the bathroom after a while. The nightdress was messily hung on her body and her fair shoulder was exposed. Kimberly pulled her sleeves and walked towards him. She had worn the nightdress properly when she stood before Maddox.
She took less than a minute to put on her clothes. Her speed was incredibly fast.
But her hair was in a mess.
Maddox narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the woman in front of him. She was barefooted and she was wearing light blue pyjamas. The quality was ordinary and it looked quite old. The cloth was a little torn and the colour had faded. It didn't match her fair and delicate skin at all.
He felt that the pyjamas made her look ugly.
Maddox frowned and stared at her unhappily.
Kimberly noticed his gaze and looked at the nightdress on her. She could guess what Maddox was looking at. She felt a little embarrassed and her face was flushed. She bit her lower lip for a long time before she finally said,
"I'm done. I'll help you get on the bed."
She stepped forward and pushed Maddox to the bedside.
After he got on the bed, his eyes fell on her body. His thin lips moved slightly and he said, "Open the drawer of the bedside table."
"Huh?" Kimberly couldn't react at first, but she quickly nodded after. She bent down and opened the drawer of the bedside table, asking, "What are you looking for, Young Master?" Because she was used to addressing Maddox as the Young Master at the company, she never changed the way she called him.
There were a few books, cards, and watches in the drawer.
"There is a card on page 205 in the second book. Take it out."
"Okay."
Kimberly did as he said without any question. She took out the second book and flipped it to page 205. She was surprised that he could remember it so clearly.
Perhaps Maddox had OCD.
"Found it." Kimberly saw the card and took it out and handed it to Maddox.
Maddox did not take it. Instead, he stared at her with his dark eyes.
"Young Master?"
"It's for you."
Hearing this, Kimberly was a little surprised and glanced at the card in her hand.
It was a bank card.
"It's for me?"
She thought that he was looking for a regular card, but she didn't expect it to be a bank card.
But why was he giving her a bank card?
