Kimberly's eyes widened in fear. She looked at the ashtray being thrown towards her.

All of a sudden, someone rushed into the study room and pulled her away.

Bang!

The ashtray hit the spot where she was standing just now. It shattered into several pieces.

Kimberly trembled at the loud piercing sound.

She looked at Old Master Yardley in disbelief.

Old Master Yardley had just said that Maddox Yardley had no sense of propriety in his actions. He also said that he was a ruthless person.

Kimberly felt that these were more accurate in describing Old Master Yardley.

"Grandpa, Erica is a straightforward person. She misunderstood your words."

Kimberly realized that the person who had pulled her away was none other than Benedict Yardley.

"Erica, Grandpa and I are just worried about Maddox's health. After all, it's very hard for him to manage such a big company alone. Besides, you must have already known what kind of person he is after staying with him for a few days. He does not really know how to draw the line. Grandpa is not asking you to keep an eye on Maddox. We're just helping him since the company will belong to him in the future." Kimberly bit her lower lip and said nothing.

Old Master Yardley snorted and said angrily, "I thought that the daughter of the Shell family is a smart person. I didn't expect that she could say such thing. My reputation will be ruined if someone heard what she just said. Why do I have such a granddaughter-in-law?"

"Grandpa, please don't be angry. I'll talk to her."

Benedict pulled Kimberly out of the study room.
