Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) -
Chapter 385
Janice's breathing suddenly became rapid. She was so nervous that she could only put her hands under the table as she watched them approach her. Samantha couldn't help but smile when she saw Janice's expression.
"Appearance is not the most important thing. His personality also matters, do you understand?"
Upon hearing that, Janice's face turned a little red. She whispered, "Mom, Auntie Abigail is not that kind of person. If he is not reliable, she will not introduce him."
"That's true."
Soon, Abigail arrived at their table with Maddox.
Abigail and Samantha hadn't seen each other in a long time. They missed each other, so they chatted for a while and sat down.
"Let me make the introductions. This is my nephew, Maddox Yardley. Maddox, this is the daughter of my colleague. Her name is Janice Lowell. Say hello to her quickly."
Maddox did not come on his own accord. When he sat down, the atmosphere around him was so cold that it almost froze the surrounding area.
After Abigail asked him to say hello, he sat still there.
However, Janice directly reached out her hand to Maddox and said, "Hello, my name is Janice Lowell. You can call me Janice."
After saying that, Janice smiled, revealing a row of clean and white teeth.
Maddox looked up lazily and his cold eyes fell on Janice's face. After a while, he said, "Hello, Miss Lowell."
However, he didn't reach out his hand, and his voice was as cold as ice.
Everyone's face was stiff.
Janice was also stunned. She told him to address her as Janice, but he still addressed her as Miss Lowell.
Wasn't that awkward?
"Maddox!" Abigail glared at Maddox unhappily.
Maddox's expression was calm, and he did not react much.
However, Janice took back her hand and said with a chuckle. "I'm sorry, Auntie Abigail. Don't blame him. I was a little too friendly. Mr. Yardley, you are very good. After all, we just met today, so we need to be more polite."
Abigail had long known that Janice was a very polite and good child but she didn't expect Janice to be so understanding. Her words touched her heart.

Hence, Abigail looked at Janice in a different light and apologized, "Janice, I am really sorry. There is nothing wrong with my nephew. The only thing is that it's hard for him to get along with other people. He has always been cold. You see, he does not even give face to his aunt. So ... don't mind him. But he is the kind of person who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. After getting to know him better ... Maddox could not help but frown when he heard that.
Cold on the outside but warm on the inside?
Why didn't he know that himself?
Huh.
The more Janice looked at Maddox, the more satisfied she became.
She didn't think that Maddox didn't respect her. On the contrary, she had a better impression of this kind of cold man who would never simply flirt with other women.
Because she was excellent, she did not lack pursuers at all. People around her were all trying to please her. Everyone was smiling cheekily at her. However, she had seen those boys sending the same presents to other girls even as they fawned over her.
She was disappointed for a long time, so she lost interest in those kinds of especially enthusiastic men.
However, a handsome man like Maddox who was as cold as an iceberg suited her taste.
As long as she tried hard, she believed that the iceberg would melt one day.
Then he would belong to her.
Thinking of this, Janice was also very moved in her heart.
The little girl would not hide herself. The satisfaction in her eyes and the shyness on her face were all shown clearly. Abigail and Samantha were experienced people, so they naturally understood the situation. They stood up together with a smile and said that they would go for a walk nearby, offering Maddox and Janice some privacy.
They left the coffee shop together.
"It's really shameful. My daughter ... To be honest, this is the first time I've seen her fond of a guy."
Samantha said in embarrassment.
Abigail said with a smile, "It doesn't matter. It shows that there's hope."
"But..." Samantha was a little worried, but she didn't say it out loud.
"I know what you're worried about. That's the character of my nephew. However, I think Janice is very smart. Let's see what their fates are like. If they're really fated to be together, Janice should be very good at judging my nephew's character."
"Hey, your nephew looks like he's perfect in all aspects. I hope they really can be a couple."
After the elders left, the two of them fell into silence.
Janice did not speak. Maddox kept silent as well.
While feeling embarrassed, Janice secretly glanced at Maddox, only to replace out that he was sitting there with no expression on his face. It seemed like he didn't feel embarrassed by the scene in front of him. "No, I'll die of embarrassment if I go on like this." So Janice smiled gently and looked at Maddox, saying, "Mr. Yardley, would you like some drinks?"
Upon finishing her words, without waiting for him to speak, Janice stood up and called the waiter over.
"Miss, what can I do for you?"
Janice looked at Maddox opposite her and asked, "Mr. Yardley?"
Maddox finally lifted his eyes and parted his thin lips.
"America no."
He really was a man of few words.
As Janice thought about it, she said to the waiter, "Give me a cup of Cappuccino then, thank you."
"Okay, please wait a moment."
After the waiter left, Janice looked at Maddox who was opposite her. She lowered her eyes and asked softly, "Mr. Yardley, what hobbies do you have?" Maddox looked coldly at the girl in front of him.
It was obvious that she was a young woman who had just graduated. He had no interest in this kind of girl at all.
"I don't have any."
Janice was stunned and then said, "Mr. Yardley, do you usually only work? Don't you have any other entertainment?" "Miss Lowell."
Maddox suddenly called her. Janice looked up and looked into his deep eyes.
"Let's call it a day for this blind date." Janice was stunned and asked, "What?"
Seeing Maddox stand up, Janice's face changed. She quickly got up and said, "Mr. Yardley, do you have a girlfriend?"
Maddox stood still and did not answer.
"I believe Auntie Abigail won't lie to me either. If you have a girlfriend, she won't introduce you to me. Since you don't have a girlfriend, why don't you go on a date with me?" Janice said quickly, as if she was afraid that Maddox would disappear in front of her if she spoke too slowly.
Maddox didn't say anything. Janice looked at his back, took a deep breath, and then went in front of Maddox.
"Are you trying to say that you're here only for your aunt, or else you wouldn't have come at all?"
Maddox frowned when he heard that.
"Since you know the truth, then don't block my way."
"But... Auntie Abigail and my mother just left. If you also leave now, it'll be very embarrassing for me."
"Can you just take it as doing me a favor? Just hang on until the end of this blind date?"
