She was thinking too much after all.

Kimberly pursed her lips. "If that is all, I shall excuse myself."

Maddox didn't say a word. Kimberly stood there for a little while more before turning around to walk out of the office.

Only after she left the room did she realise how pathetic she was.

How could she be so stupid so as to think that Maddox was doing this because of her? She should have known that it was impossible. He hated her so much, so why would he jeopardize the earnings of his company just for her?

"Kimberly, oh Kimberly, you really thought too highly of yourself," she told herself.

When Kimberly returned to the Yardley family residence after work, a servant told her that the Old Master wanted to see her in the study room.

When she thought of what had happened the last time, Kimberly grasped the hem of her shirt.

Since she had no other choice, Kimberly could only nod in agreement. She dragged her reluctant footsteps to the study room.

Compared to the other time when she was called to the study room, Kimberly felt as if there were mountains on her shoulders this time.

"Old Master," Kimberly bit her lower lip and called Old Master Yardley sat in front of the desk, his misty eyes were filled with shock. Looking at Kimberly who was standing before him, he narrowed his eyes slightly. "I heard... that Maddox had cancelled the collaboration with Lovis Enterprises?"

Sure enough!

When the servant told her that the Old Master wanted to see her, Kimberly could vaguely guess what it was about.

She was right. Although the old man wasn't at the company, he was still aware of this incident. This was an indication that he had ears and eyes in the company.

Kimberly knew that it would do no good for her to be nervous, so she just nodded honestly.

"Yes, I have just heard about it too."

Hearing what she said, Old Master Yardley was so angry that he swept the books on the table to the ground. The loud noise frightened Kimberly as she stumbled backward.

"This b*stard is really reckless! How could he refuse to collaborate with a big shot like Lovis Entreprises?"
