Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) -
Chapter 118
Kimberly was lost in thought.
She hadn't considered this problem since she married Maddox. It was not that she didn't want to think about it, but she had never thought that she could leave him. They had an agreement. She would leave half a year later.
"Kimberly?"
Sylvia called her back to reality.
Kimberly smiled awkwardly and asked, "What did you say?"
Sylvia's gaze shifted a little. "Don't tell me you.... are reluctant to leave him?" She asked tentatively.
Hearing this, Kimberly's face changed dramatically and replied, "No!"
How could she not want to leave Maddox? Although... he did do a lot of things that moved her, he still hated women like her. It would be shameful for him for being seen with her.
That was why he didn't want others to know her identity. He only addressed her as his assistant.
"Even if I can't replace that man, I'll leave on the day that we've agreed to divorce on," Kimberly murmured.
Hearing this, Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. I thought you liked him."
"Alright, let's get back to the point. Now, we have contacted that man's designer. My brother is on his way to look for him. When he replaces the designer, he will ask him who he gave the suit to," Sylvia said again. Hearing this, Kimberly smiled and said, "Sylvia, thank you for your hard work, and your brother... he has also helped me a lot. I'll treat him to dinner when we all have free time."
Although they had known each other for such a long time, Kimberly had never seen her brother.
Sylvia met her family later in life. In these short years, she seemed to lead a good life with her family.
Hearing this, Sylvia's expression immediately changed and her gaze fluttered a little. "Din, dinner? Forget about it. My brother is... very busy!" She stammered.
"That's alright. I'll treat your brother to dinner when he is free," Kimberly replied.
Sylvia nodded and responded, "O... okay."
Sylvia quickly changed the topic, "I should know who that person is in a few days. Kimberly, I will inform you as soon as I do."
"Okay," Kimberly replied.
Sylvia returned home after sending Kimberly back to the Yardley family. When Sylvia entered her house, the servant greeted her, "Welcome back, Miss." "Hm." Sylvia replied weakly.
"Miss, this is the beauty juice we specially made for you." The servant served a glass of juice to her. Sylvia stopped and looked at the glass of juice for a long time. She suddenly sneered and knocked the juice over, shouting, "A beauty juice? It's just a fake product to please me. How dare you deceive me with something like this?"
The servant was frightened and knelt down with a pale face.
"I'm sorry, Miss, but that's really our specially made beauty juice," the servant quickly apologized and explained.
"Humph!" Sylvia kicked the glass fragments away and asked, "Why don't you hurry up and clean up the mess? Do you want to make my feet hurt?"
The servant was terrified and cleaned up immediately. Because she moved too fast, she accidentally cut her hands on the glass shards, causing her to bleed.
Sylvia looked away in disgust, cursing, "What the h*ll? How dare you pollute my eyes with that disgusting blood? Take your hand away quickly!"
Then, she rushed upstairs furiously, her high heels clicking loudly on the steps.
After she left, several servants whispered to each other.
"Miss's character is really much worse than the previous Madam."
"That's right, the previous Madam would not be so brutal."
"Sigh, don't say that. Miss was abandoned when she was a child. I heard that her father was addicted to gambling. He almost sold her off for money. This kind of uneducated person has just entered the Hanover family, she needs time to adapt. After all, she is the Miss of the Hanover family. We'd better endure it."
"But I always feel that... she is not classy or posh. She doesn't act like a member of the Hanover family at all. She is more like a female hooligan."
"How dare you say that? Don't let her overhear you. Otherwise, you will be dismissed."
The person was so scared and shut up immediately. The few of them cleaned the floor up rapidly and left.
After Sylvia returned to her room, she called her eldest brother, Quill.
Not long after the phone rang, the person on the other end answered.
"Quill!" Sylvia's voice became soft and adorable. It was completely different from how she treated her servants.
"What's the matter?" Quill's voice was cold and serious, enough to make people scared.
Sylvia felt her scalp tingle when she heard his voice. She asked in a timid voice, "Urn... Quill, have you gone abroad? Have you found the person?"
"Not yet," Quill replied.
"Oh, then Quill..." Sylvia said.
"I still have something important to do," Quill reminded her indifferently.
Sylvia said in a hurry, "Oh, then you go and settle your stuff first." Before she could react, Quill had hung up the phone.
Sylvia listened to the tone coming from the phone and tightened her fingers slowly.
Although Quill would give her whatever she wanted after she entered the Hanover family, he never got close to her, nor would he talk much to her. When she wanted to get close to him, he always distanced himself.
He was the one who dealt with all the affairs of the Hanover family. Sylvia wanted to get his favor. However, Quill was well-known for his aloofness. He treated his family the same way as well. She shouldn't have cared about it, but she had a small secret in her heart, so she had to worry. Even if the Hanover family found her years later, Sylvia was not their real biological daughter.
Yes, she had known Kimberly for so many years. She even knew some things that Kimberly didn't know. The Hanover family was actually looking for Kimberly, the rightful daughter. However, Sylvia hated her father so much. She wanted to get rid of her gambler father, thus she used Kimberly's identity.
After using Kimberly's identity, Sylvia became the Miss of the Hanover family.
Now, she owed the most to Kimberly, so she swore to treat Kimberly particularly well.
But what Kimberly said at the dessert shop that day had scared her.
If Quill and Kimberly met, would... would he recognize Kimberly? Could Sylvia still remain in the Hanover family by then? If Quill knew that she was not the Hanover family's biological daughter, how would he treat her? Thinking of this, Sylvia felt a chill run down her spine like she had been thrown into an icy lake. Her limbs were frozen still.
No, she couldn't just sit idle and wait for her fall. She had to think of some way...
She had to replace a way to convince Quill to trust her.
But what could she do? Even though he would do whatever she requested, he had never been close to her. He agreed to help her even though she just casually mentioned it. However, Sylvia felt more and more uneasy.
It was best to keep Quill and Kimberly apart forever.
But... how could she keep them from meeting? What if... they met one day?
"No, no... I can't let them meet. Quill is so vigilant. He must suspect something. If Kimberly met him, he will definitely recognize her. But... But what should I do?" She thought. How about... getting rid of Kimberly?
No, no way! When she was at her lowest, Kimberly had helped her up so many times. After she used Kimberly's identity, she swore to treat her well. She couldn't... be so inhumane.
But what else should she do?
