Maddox was speechless.

He couldn't come to his senses for quite some time. Perhaps he didn't expect her to say in such a manner.

He curled his lips coldly and squeezed her chin with his hand, saying, "Do you know who you're talking to? How dare you?"

He was exceedingly strong that Kimberly's chin became red at once. She was in agony and wanted to escape his grasp.

Her efforts were in vain. She bit her lower lip, glaring at him with hatred. "Of course I know. So what? Am I wrong? Why can you stay out when I am not allowed to?"

Kimberly tried to push Maddox away with all her might, yet she was much weaker than him. Kimberly shoved him repeatedly but failed. She stopped at the end, panting terribly.

Her fair cheeks were flushing red at the moment as she had consumed all her strength. Due to rage, her clear eyes were particularly vivid, like the stars reflected on the lake, sparkling with radiance.

Maddox was initially angry, even so, he suddenly thought of something when she questioned him. He narrowed his eyes and approached her, speaking in a low voice.

"Are you... jealous?" Kimberly was stunned. Was she jealous?

"Hmm? Were you anxious because I didn't come home all night? I heard that you called Sam. Were you worried that something might have happened to me?" Kimberly remained silent while staring at him stubbornly. Maddox lifted her chin with his hand and bent down, and his cold thin lips were almost touching hers.

"Answer me."

His tone was overbearing.

Kimberly could feel his breath on her as his face was extremely close to hers. It was cold and chilly, like a quilt that had been left in the room for a long time during winter. Kimberly shrank and finally spoke, "You've exposed

me.

Maddox was dumbfounded by her words.

He thought that she would deny or refute it.

Conversely, he didn't expect... that she would actually admit it.

Kimberly smiled faintly at him and her pink lips were curled, "Just take it as me being jealous, so do you still want to continue staying out?"

Maddox narrowed his eyes and inched forward a little towards her. His nose and forehead were against hers, and his cold aura was all around her. Kimberly looked at his eyes and her heart immediately skipped a beat.

He truly... could make her fall for him. She was madly in love at the point that she couldn't control herself.

As she had just taken a shower, her body was pressed softly to his sturdy chest without reservation. Kimberly nervously licked her lips at such an intimate distance with him.

Such a gesture made Maddox's pupils contract, and he almost couldn't control himself at once.

"You did it on purpose, huh?" He queried. Before Kimberly could reply, he leaned down and pressed his lips on hers right away.

"Ah."

When her lips were locked on his, Kimberly couldn't resist moaning a little.

Such a subtle moan seemed to ignite the passion in Maddox. The fingers that had been holding her chin went behind her head as he pressed it with some force, and the kiss went deeper. Their lips and tongues met, and Kimberly felt like she was out of breath. In the beginning, she could still react a little at first, but her body eventually became soft as she laid herself gently in his arms.

Maddox did not let her go either. Instead, he caught her and kissed her for a long moment, then his kisses slowly went lower as his lips fell on her neck.

Kimberly was half conscious until she felt her nightdress being pulled up. She became conscious as she felt the cold air at once, and shoved Maddox away.

Maddox was already indulging himself, yet he was interrupted all of a sudden, frowning unhappily. "Are you digging your own grave?" He scolded her with his hoarse voice, clearly being sensual about it. Kimberly quickly tidied up her clothes and pushed him, "Stop it. Do you think that doing this would make me forget that you didn't return home all night?"

"What's wrong?" Maddox stared at her. "Just because I didn't come home, hence you stayed out to take revenge on me?"

"What if this is the case?" Kimberly bit her lower lip, and her red swollen lips that were just kissed looked really appealing. "If you are allowed to do that, then I can too."

"You!" Maddox let out a fit of temper, "Listen clearly. It doesn't mean that you can do it if I am allowed to do so. You are not allowed to hang out with any men other than me. Do you get it?" Kimberly did not answer but looked at him amusingly.

"What about you? If you don't forbid me to hang out with other men, will you hang out with other women then?"

When she raised that question, Kimberly felt her heart stop for a beat and thousands of different answers rushed in her mind at once.

Maddox's eyes had immediately darkened, and he shot her a puzzled look, asking, "Would you care if I hang out with other women or not?"

What?

Kimberly blurted out at once, "Of course I would!" After finishing her sentence, Kimberly realized what she had just admitted and her expression changed. Subsequently, she tried to jump off of him but he grabbed her wrist.

"It seems that you really do."

"I didn't mean that!" Kimberly explained in a hurry.

Maddox's lips curled up. "You can never really take back your words. On top of that, you have said it to my face, I will never allow a single chance for you to do so!"

Kimberly stared at him blankly for a moment. After a while, she questioned, "Well, if I don't take it back, what about you then? Will you stay out in future? Will you hang out with other women behind my back?" Maddox furrowed his brow and seemed unhappy with her questions.

"Can you do it?" Kimberly queried persistently.

Even at present, she still refused to believe that Maddox had anything to do with Sylvia, and she kept forcing herself to believe that it was all a coincidence!

Maddox pursed his thin lips lightly. He suddenly reached out and stroked her head. "Who said that I stayed out to hang out with other women? Did you see it with your own eyes?"

Kimberly answered, "No. But what is so extraordinarily important that you could not come back for two nights? Can you tell me?"

Maddox narrowed his eyes and glared at her wickedly.

"You'd better not meddle in my business." Upon hearing this, Kimberly couldn't restrain herself to let out a dry laugh.

"It seems that you solely want me to care about you, that's all."

She then let go of his hand and went away from his lap, standing a few metres away from him.

"If that's the case, what rights do you have to request anything from me?"
