When they reached the car, Sylvia helped Maddox into the car with his wheelchair before she entered as well.

After that, both of them did not get out of the car again. Kimberly stood there angrily. Just then, another car cto a stop in front of her. After the window was rolled down, Kimberly saw Benedict in the driver seat.

"Are you going to the company? I can fetch you," he said. The coldness in Benedict's eyes from earlier had disappeared. He had turned back into the gentle and polite version of himself.

Kimberly looked towards Maddox's car subconsciously and saw Sylvia bending over to sort something out for him. Benedict followed her gaze, glancing over towards them and then looked away immediately like he didn't care at all.

Sylvia suddenly thought of something and turned her head towards Kimberly. She waved at her and called, "Kimberly, what are you waiting for? Chere." Kimberly replied with hesitation, "It's fine." For sreason, Kimberly refused her. Before Sylvia could react, she had opened Benedict's car door and sat into it.

She said to Benedict, "Thank you for fetching me. Let's go." Benedict glanced through the rearview mirror and nodded, "Okay." Their car drove away, but the car behind them didn't move.

Sam sat in the front seat and looked at Sylvia behind him. He asked, "Miss Hanover, why didn't you ask Miss Shell to get in the car too?" After hearing this, Sylvia replied innocently, "I called her, but... she didn't want to come." She then added pitifully, "Kimberly seems to have a good relationship with Brother Benedict. Otherwise, I would have gone and escorted her myself." Hearing this, Sam frowned and glanced at Sylvia again.

He wondered, "Isn't this woman supposed to be good friends with Kimberly? Why does it sound like she is trying to defKimberly?" Ever since Sylvia had appeared, Sam had a bad feeling about her. This feeling was even stronger at this moment.

"Miss Hanover, if you didn't get into Young Master Yardley's car, Miss Shell wouldn't have no space to sit. Am I right?" Sam chided her. Sylvia's face turned pale instantly.

She said, "If that is the case, it looks like it really is my fault. I didn't think it through... I'm sorry, I'll get out now!" After that, Sylvia turned around and wanted to get out of the car.

"There's no need." However, Maddox stopped her and said with an indifferent expression, "Drive." Sam tried to argue, "But..." Maddox snorted and said, "Since when did you get to decide?" Helpless, Sam could only oblige and replied, "Yes, Sir." He clenched his teeth and looked at Sylvia unwillingly.

This woman had bad intentions! And she was pretending to look pitiful! Sam thought that he must find an opportunity to alert Kimberly, that oblivious woman. If not, it was only a matter of tbefore her best friend stole her husband.

The car was moving slowly. Benedict turned on the music in the car and an ancient folk European song was playing. The female singer's voice was clear yet slow, and the pleasant music gave off an ancient folk vibe. "Are you feeling unhappy?" Benedict suddenly asked.

Kimberly responded in surprise, "What?" He said, "You felt jealous when you saw Maddox with another woman." This time, Benedict was more direct.

Kimberly's expression changed upon hearing that.

She said, "That's nonsense. Sylvia is not sother woman. She doesn't think about him that way!" After hearing this, Benedict couldn't help chuckling. His laughter was deep and sweet, and it paired well with the ancient folk song playing in the background. He said, "How do you know that she doesn't have those thoughts? What if she does?" "That is impossible!" Kimberly said firmly.

She was so firm and stubborn that she sounded like a child, serious and cute at the stime.

Benedict couldn't help but take a look at Kimberly a few more times. He then asked, "You really trust her, huh?" S~EaRch the Find Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

"Sylvia is my best friend," Kimberly replied solemnly.

Benedict took a look at her again and a faint smile spread on his face.

He asked, "Why do you trust her so much? Will you never doubt her no matter what happens?" Kimberly nodded without hesitation. She was very close to Sylvia and she appreciated everything that Sylvia had done for her. To her, Sylvia was a best friend who would do anything to help her.

She would never believe that Sylvia would do something bad to her.

She was just worried about Maddox...

When Kimberly was thinking about all of this, she didn't realize that Benedict had already been staring at her for a long time. He looked away only when the red light changed. He then lowered his voice a little as he spoke again.

"Have you prepared your dress for tonight's event?" Kimberly cback to her senses and she remembered the revealing red dress which Sylvia had bought for her the day before. She wanted to say something, but nothing cout of her mouth.

"What's wrong? Have you not prepared an outfit?" Benedict asked. He then suddenly reached out to the back seat and handed her an exquisitely-wrapped gift box.

Kimberly looked at the box but did not take it.

He explained, "I predicted that you might not have been prepared, so I picked one for you. I don't know if you will like it." Before she could answer, Benedict had already put the box in her arms and said, "Try it on later to see if it fits." Kimberly held the box with a confused look on her face.

What day was it? Why were so many people giving her dresses? The day before, Sylvia had bought her one. Later, Quill sent her a message, saying that Juliette would send another to her later on this day.

All of a sudden, Kimberly felt that she was the only one in the world who had more dresses than she needed.

Thinking of this, Kimberly quickly handed the box back and said, "It's okay... Sylvia has already prepared one for me." Hearing her words, Benedict was slightly startled. After a while, he suddenly smiled leisurely.

He said, "It doesn't matter. You should keep it and try on both dresses. You can decide what you want to wear later! Yalready gave you the gift, so you can't askto take it back now, can you?" Kimberly thought that he was right. If she insisted to give it back to him, she would appear impolite. Thus, she had no choice but to accept the gift.

"Thank you." Benedict replied, "You don't need to be so courteous. We're a family after all. Also, stop avoiding me. I didn't bear any other intention when I lent your mother the money. It was just that I felt distressed when I saw you standing in the street being beaten and scolded." "You don't expectto not do anything, right?"

Benedict seemed to make ssense with his words. Kimberly pursed her lips and nodded, replying, "Thank you for helping me. But... the 300,000 dollars was lent to me, I will slowly return it back to you." "Silly girl. I don't need that 300,000 dollars. Didn't I say that the money was just a meeting gift for when we first met?" said Benedict. "No!" Kimberly shook her head vigorously and refused, "I will definitely return the money to you. Please don't pressurizeanymore."

Benedict sighed and gave in, "Okay, fine. Since you insist, it will be rude forto reject. Well, you have to try your best to make smoney and payback as soon as possible. However... 300,000 dollars is not a small amount. You should take care of yourself in the process." "Thank you. I know." After arriving at the company, Kimberly got out of Benedict's car. At this hour, not many people were around the company. They were all making preparations for the banquet. And since it was still early, the company was fairly empty.
