Kimberly Shell thought her ears were deceiving her. That cold Maddox Yardley, how could he be welcoming them in?

But he really did say it, and he said it to Sylvia Hanover. For a moment, Kimberly felt a little uncomfortable, but she was still happy that Sylvia was welcomed.

"Sam, we'll go to the study."

Sam Sorrento came to his senses and said, "Ladies, please enjoy yourselves. Young Master Yardley and I still have some work to do."

"Mmm." Sylvia smiled sweetly and waved to Maddox and Sam. After they left, Sylvia looked at Maddox's back and said, "In fact, I think Maddox is not as terrible and cold as I had imagined him to be. What do you think?"

Kimberly also stared at the tall figure in a daze. "It seems so."

"Kimberly, you're so lucky!"

"Lucky?"

"Yes, you should just forget that jerk Jonathan Lowell. You had the chance to marry a decent man like Maddox. Do you dare to say that you are not lucky?"

"Am I lucky?" the corner of her lips twitched, and her smile was a little bitter.

She didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse to get to marry Maddox.

"But you'll get divorced sooner or later. No matter how good he is, it's no use. Alas."

When it was finally time for dinner, everyone sat down at the same table. Old Master Yardley's face looked horrible. But when he heard that there was a guest, his face eased a little.

"Hello, Old Master Yardley. I'm Sylvia Hanover from Hanover Corporation."

"Hanover Corporation?" Old Master Yardley narrowed his eyes slightly. "Is your brother Quill Hanover?"

Sylvia was a little surprised. "Does Old Master Yardley know my brother?"

There was a hint of praise in Old Master Yardley's eyes. "Yes. I've seen him before. He's a very promising young man."
