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.

When he thought that she might like him, the smile on Maddox's face grew even broader. There was a hint of joy sparkling in his dark eyes. Obviously, Maddox had not noticed it yet.

As he was questioning her, Kimberly lowered her head, and her eyes were filled with pain!

How could she be so foolish to ask Maddox a question like that? Was she an idiot? She must be insane to ask if he was jealous. She should know that it was impossible.

She did not know what had happened in the villa after she followed Maddox there. However, Kimberly had a hunch that he was looking for someone, a very important person. But all of these had nothing to do with her.

Thinking of this, Kimberly bit her lower lip and she raised her head in anger.

"I don't like you!" she yelled.

She uttered them word by word. Kimberly stared straight into Maddox's dark eyes and added, "You're right. I'm indeed damaged goods. I was abandoned by my ex-husband and now I'm even pregnant with a baby. I'm aware that no one will ever like me. But I have to tell you this, please stop overthinking! Do you think I'll fall in love with you because I'm married to you? You're bad-tempered, obnoxious and you have no respect for women. You despise others without any reason at all. You don't know what is respect at all. Why on earth do you think that I would have a crush on a person like you?" Kimberly almost shouted the last part of the sentence out!

Maddox's face was livid, but after being criticized by Kimberly, his expression became utterly gloomy. He pinched her chin with rage. He was using so much strength that it might even crush her bones. "Say it again?" Maddox threatened. Kimberly raised her chin, looking at him stubbornly and fearlessly.

"Sure. If you want to listen to it so badly, I don't even mind to repeat it ten times. I said that you have a bad temper and I will never fall in love with you, urn..." Kimberly retorted.

Before she could finish her words, Maddox kissed her violently. He bit her lips, and his hands rubbed her back. The touch of his rough palm made Kimberly tremble as if electricity was running through her body Kimberly felt like she was so weak and powerless as if she was a tiny boat that was floating on the deep ocean. She would lose her balance easily once the wave hit her.

Although the waves were dangerous, the boat had to rely on the waves to move forward.

Kimberly resisted at first, but she eventually gave up. However, just when she was about to close her eyes, Maddox suddenly covered her head with the suit jacket.

Before she found out what had happened, what came into her sight was pitch-black darkness. Then, she felt her head being pressed down. Maddox was pressing her against his chest.

At the same time, Maddox shouted angrily, "Get out!"

He shouted the word "out" loudly, and she could feel the vibration on Maddox's chest.

"I'm sorry!"

Kimberly's face paled when she heard someone apologizing from a distance away. She could hear that there were sounds of footsteps fading away.

Did she accidentally expose herself when she was indulging herself in the kiss?

Kimberly's face instantly turned pale, and her petite body was shivering in Maddox's arms.

Maddox felt it. He frowned and uncovered the suit, glancing at her little head lying on his chest.

After a while, he took out his mobile phone and called Sam Sorrento.

"Bring me a set of clothes." Maddox ordered.

Kimberly's cheeks turned rosy red. If he asked someone else to bring her clothes, then...

Although Kimberly was loathing Maddox now, she did not dare to move. After all, she was wearing only her underwear. If she got up, she would be naked.

Fifteen minutes later, Sam sent a set of clothes to the room.

"Leave them there and close the door," Maddox said.
