After leaving Maddox's office, Kimberly Shell went back to her desk. After sitting down, she held the mouse in her hand, only to find that her fingers were shaking. She couldn't even hold the mouse firmly. What was wrong with her? Shouldn't she already be used to his harsh words? She clearly knew that he had a bad impression of her, but sometimes Kimberly just couldn't help thinking about it.

If he really hated her so much, why did he always help her?

She could remember every little detail of how he had helped her in the past.

But every time, they would both end up being upset, because Maddox Yardley would always use harsh words on her, like what he just did...

Kimberly lowered her head, and there was selfmockery in the bottom of her eyes.

She felt that she was pathetic. If he really wanted to help her, he would not say such hurtful words to her in front of so many people. He was right. It was his decision to not collaborate with Lovis Enterprises. He helped her in the boutique because he didn't want her to embarrass the Yardley family.

She was the one., who had been thinking too much.

Suddenly, Kimberly felt a little pain in her lower abdomen and her face turned pale. She sat up straight and reached out to gently rub her lower abdomen. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something. She... was a pregnant woman!

Since she did not have any morning sickness for the past few days, she had forgotten about the existence of this child. Otherwise... she would not have drunk last night.

She was really... too careless. Kimberly got up and went to the pantry to pour herself a cup of warm water to drink. Unfortunately, the pain did not ease. It did not hurt a lot, but the discomfort persisted. Kimberly sat down for a while. The pain did not worsen so she thought it should be fine.

However, she did not expect the pain to worsen in the afternoon. Just as Kimberly was still hesitating whether she should request for leave, Sam Sorrento suddenly came to find her.

"Assistant Shell, we need to have this document sent to the planning department. Please send it over."

"Okay, sure." Kimberly stretched out her hand and took it with difficulty.

Sam noticed Kimberly's pale face. She looked like she was unwell. He frowned slightly and said, "Assistant Shell, you don't look well. Are you sick?"

Kimberly shook her head and said, "I'm fine."
