Chapter 260
Maddox gritted his teeth, glaring at the woman with bloodshot eyes in his arms. When she was saying those words, he thought that she was utterly sickening. On the other hand, he felt so much distress in his heart seeing her pitiful look.
Maddox was irritated and had no idea to deal with her.
Kimberly continued, "It's not the decision that I think for myself and act accordingly."
"Then don't mention divorce so casually."
Kimberly paused and looked at him. "Then give me an explanation. I want a clear, truthful explanation."
Somehow, Maddox had a feeling that she was questioning him because she was jealous. Despite that, if she didn't bring it up first, Maddox would continue hiding this matter from her. Hence, he didn't take the initiative to tell her.
"What explanation do you need?."
Kimberly curled her lips and looked at him with a bitter smile. "Are you still not going to spill the beans right now? Or is it because you enjoy having two women at the same time, and it makes you feel good about yourself, am I right?"
"What are you talking about?" Maddox gritted his teeth, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Do you know who I met today?"
Maddox frowned and stared at her, waiting for her Kimberly smiled bitterly, saying, "I didn't just see Vera. I met Sylvia in the morning too."
Maddox was expressionless at first, yet after pondering, he shot her a cold stare. "You met her today?"
"Yeah, don't you think it's a coincidence? I met her just now, and I saw a pair of pink earrings on her, which were the same ones I saw in the jewelry store. You gave me another pair just now. Although they looked similar, yet I still could differentiate between the two."
Kimberly made it extremely clear and Maddox's brows knitted.
He originally wanted to hide this matter from her before he got a clearer picture of it. Who knew that she would meet with Sylvia face-to-face?
Unexpectedly, Sylvia wore those earrings to meet her that day. What would she think if she saw it?
"You thought that I gave her those earrings?"
Was that the reason she reacted that much when she opened the box a while ago?
Kimberly retorted, "If it wasn't from you, then who else would it be?"
Kimberly kept staring at him, observing his every movement. However, Maddox had been very determined and remained resolute all the time.
Kimberly paused while listening to him.
"If I say that I didn't, would you believe me?"
Kimberly remained silent, refusing to believe him. If she did, she wouldn't have asked him. However, what was with his attitude?
"It's me who is asking you. Why are you questioning me? If you didn't give it to her, how could she possibly have it?" Kimberly questioned hysterically, realizing that she went overboard after that.
She sounded like a lunatic woman who doubted her husband's love for her.
Since when did she become like this?
Kimberly took a deep breath and suppressed her anger after giving some thought. She then turned away from him. "Forget it. I don't want to ask you these. You should just do whatever you want."
Kimberly then pushed him away and wanted to get up. However it was at this moment that Maddox pulled her back on to his lap again.
"I didn't give her those earrings, and things are not what you think. Now... would you believe me?"
He lifted her chin and gazed into her eyes. He explained callously again, "I never explain myself to anyone. You are the first woman who made me talk so much."
Kimberly was lost for words.
She looked at him and remarked, "So? Do you think that I should not only believe you, but also feel grateful to you for doing this to me?"
Maddox pressed his lips together. "Why do you have to be so harsh? Why are you making a fuss?"
"Making a fuss?" Kimberly laughed out loud and the color drained from her face. "If you think I'm making a fuss, then don't touch me, don't talk to me, and stop questioning me!" Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Maddox frowned and kept staring at her.
"You..."
"Let me go!" Kimberly roared and broke free from him. Then, she got up and stormed towards her room. "Since I married you, I have never had a day living in comfort. To stay in the Yardley family, I
agreed to all the conditions you said and signed the contract because you forced me to do so. Maddox, do you think that I actually want to live like this? I have had enough."
"You've had enough?" Maddox narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Do you know what you're talking about?"
"Of course." Kimberly raised her chin. "I mean it from the bottom of my heart. Let's just get a divorce."
"Come again?" Maddox felt that this woman was driving him nuts. She had repeated several times that she wanted to divorce him. He was mad at the thought of her breaking up with him.
Anger stirred within him.
Conversely, he had no idea how to deal with her.
Maddox suddenly let out a sneer, "You'd better give up. Since you've married me, you'll be my woman forever. Divorce? Don't even think about it. You are not allowed to go anywhere."
Kimberly was rooted to the ground when she heard his words. She turned around and looked at Maddox incredulously.
"Why? I'm just bringing forward the termination of the contract." "The contract?" Maddox shot an indifferent stare and slightly raised his voice, "I have the contract in my hand, and I am the initiator of the contract. I can terminate it whenever I want."
"You are going overboard!" Kimberly shouted.
Maddox raised his eyebrows, smiling mockingly. "From the moment you married into the Yardley family, you have been tied to me for the rest of your life. Don't ever think about running away."
"As for the contract." Maddox's eyes were locked on her face. "If you think you have the rights to terminate it, I can tell you that I can destroy it."
Kimberly commented, "What on earth do you want to do? Why do you have to tie me down if you don't like me? Can't we just get a divorce? You both love each other, and I will let you two be together, can't I even do that?"
Maddox's eyes darkened when he heard that.
"In my world, I'm the only one who has authority to make decisions."
"What's more, who said that I want to be with her?"
Maddox's voice sounded overly soft. Kimberly didn't manage to listen to the last sentence at all. Instead, she only heard the sentence before that. She was enraged that she just ignored him and went straight back to her bed.
In the end, she laid down on her bed without even changing her clothes. Kimberly furiously covered herself with the quilt and didn't want to bother Maddox anymore.
