Benedict Yardley was stunned, but after a while, he smiled.

"Maddox, are you blaming me for proposing your marriage to Grandpa?"

What? Kimberly Shell was shocked. Was Maddox's marriage arranged by Benedict?

Maddox Yardley sneered, not answering him.

"You are not young anymore. Besides, your legs are injured, so you should find someone to take care of you. I knew the daughter of the Shell family. That was why I proposed the marriage to Grandpa. Maddox, you must understand my good intentions." Benedict added.

At first, Kimberly was just surprised that Benedict was the one who suggested Maddox's marriage. However, Kimberly's face suddenly changed and she subconsciously turned to look at Benedict. Did he already know about the daughters of the Shell family? Did that mean... he knew that she was not Erica Shell?

Kimberly suddenly recalled that Benedict had unintentionally called her name when they were talking.

At that time, Kimberly did not notice it, because she was used to being called Kimberly, so...

Kimberly was so shocked at this thought that she broke out in a cold sweat. She looked at the man sitting opposite her, ever with his gentle smile and gaze. He had known her identity for a long time, but he had never exposed her lies. He could even talk and laugh with her.

Such a man...

The more Kimberly thought about it, the colder her back felt. Cold sweat oozed from her forehead.

"Erica, what's wrong?" Benedict asked when he noticed that she was looking at him. He saw that her face was pale and there were beads of sweat on her forehead, so he frowned and asked with concern, "Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling sick?"

His eyes were gentle, and his voice was as soft as the wind.

But it was such a man....

Kimberly bit her lower lip. She shivered.

Maddox also noticed her reaction. He subconsciously frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you, Miss-Married-Twice?"

Kimberly's lips twitched and she answered in a trembling voice, "No, nothing."
