Sylvia's voice was quite sharp, so when her voice erupted from the mobile phone, it sounded quite loud in the quiet room.

Perhaps because she was feeling guilty, Kimberly subconsciously covered the mobile phone with her hand as she looked in the direction of the bathroom. She didn't see him, but only the sound of running

water.

They wouldn't hear her talking here, right?

Thinking of this, Kimberly coughed softly and placed the phone beside her ear. Then she nodded and said, "Well, did you see the message I sent you just now?"

"Yes, you said you found a button. And it might belong to that man, right?"

"Well, have you found anything about it recently?"

"No, you didn't give me any related information. Even if I try to look for that man, it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Kimberly, since you have something related to him, you should take a picture of the button and send it to me." Sylvia added.

"Okay."

Sylvia sighed from the other side of the phone, "How have you been lately? Is Maddox still making things difficult for you?"

"No, we have already made an agreement. I will stay in the Yardley family for half a year, and I will leave after that."

"This man seems quite tricky. Your belly will show in half a year, but it's going to be winter by then. You are skinny, so you could cover it up by wearing loose clothes."

"Yeah."

"Alright, hurry and send the picture to me."

After hanging up the phone, Kimberly turned on the phone camera and put the golden button on her white palm. She then took a photo of it. As soon as she sent the photo to Sylvia, she heard a sound behind her.

Kimberly was shocked and she jumped. The button in her hand fell on the ground and then rolled underneath Maddox's bed.

Her eyes widened as she watched the button roll, but she did not dare to get up to get it.

She turned around and saw that Sam Sorrento was pushing Maddox Yardley out of the bathroom.
