Maddox Yardley was acting like a madman. He did not realize that something was wrong until he calmed down. The person in his arms was too quiet, which was much different from the way she had struggled to refuse him before.
Maddox lowered his head and looked at her coldly.
She was not as angry and annoyed as he had imagined she would be. On the contrary, she looked calm.
What happened?
He was so rude to her, but she had no reaction at all.
The next second, Kimberly Shell blinked and stared at him. She asked, "Maddox, are you jealous?"
Maddox was stunned.
Kimberly blinked, staring at his dark eyes, as if trying to search for some traces of emotions from his gaze.
"Am I right?" Kimberly couldn't help but ask again when she saw that he didn't answer.
Maddox was speechless. He was so angry that the veins on his forehead were bulging. This was the first time he was so irritated by a woman. However, even after what he had done to her, she had asked him calmly if he was jealous.
Seeing that he did not answer, Kimberly lowered her head and glanced at her torn blue suit and said in a soft voice, "If you weren't jealous, why did you tear them off?"
Now, all that was left on Kimberly was her underwear, and she was clinging onto Maddox.
Maddox had been staring at her for a long time. Then, he suddenly sneered and said, "Miss-Married-Twice, are you out of your mind? What made you think that I tore your suit off because I was jealous?"
Kimberly's eyes were clear, "If you weren't jealous, then why were you so angry?"
It was as if her gaze had seen through his heart. Her clear and beautiful eyes looked stunning and curious, with a hint of anticipation in it.
Anticipation?
This woman...
"What are you thinking about? Do you think I would like women like you?" Maddox asked.
Kimberly froze.
"You're damaged goods. You were abandoned by your ex-husband. And you even hooked up with men when you're pregnant. Why would I be interested in you?" Maddox mocked.
Kimberly's face turned pale. She bit her lips and defended herself, "I didn't hook up with anyone. It was a coincidence. I just happened to meet Benedict. At that time, I fainted, so..."
"So are you trying to explain to me how you had acted in front of my brother? Kimberly Shell, are you pretending to be pitiful with me? Your trick doesn't work on me." Maddox asserted. Maddox pinched her chin, a cruel smile crept across his face. "If you're willing to please me with your body, perhaps, I could consider whether I should believe what you just said or not," he uttered.
Kimberly did not mind whether Maddox was angry or not.
However, whenever Maddox spoke to her in such a malicious tone, Kimberly would think that he was deliberately humiliating her.
This kind of humiliation was exactly what Kimberly could not stand!
She bit her lower lip angrily and glared at him with hatred.
"Don't even think about it!" Kimberly growled.
He pinched her chin forcefully and grinned, "What's wrong? Didn't you look like you were looking forward to it just now? Miss-Married-Twice, you like me, don't you?"
What? Kimberly was flustered.
It was impossible! How could she fall in love with Maddox, who was evil and obnoxious? She must be out of her mind if she ever had a crush on him.
"You have a crush on me, but you're trying to push the responsibility onto me. Is that why you asked me if I liked you?" Maddox added.
