Kimberly lowered her eyes and did not notice the expression on Maddox's face. She only heard the criticism in his words.

He was probably blaming her.

After all, who would expect his assistant to fight with the staff and make a mess in the canteen?

Kimberly heard his wheelchair rolling towards her. Then, she saw a pair of slender legs in front of her. Before she could react, a pair of hands tightened around her waist and held her. Her eyes widened.

Maddox had rolled his wheelchair in front of her and held her in his arms.

While Kimberly was still stunned, he pinched her chin. He lifted her head and forcibly made her look into his cold eyes.

"Do you know what I'm angry about?" He asked.

The cold masculine aura from his body surrounded her. Kimberly could not think straight and shook her head.

"I already know the whole story," Maddox said.

"What? You knew everything? Then why did you ask me..." Kimberly was shocked.

Maddox said, "I just wanted to know what you would say. Oh, and I didn't expect you to leave out all the important points. Have you not suffered enough? Don't you know how to shout when you feel pain?" As soon as Maddox finished speaking, he flicked her forehead hard with his fingers.

Kimberly cried out in pain and reached out to cover her forehead.

"Turns out you can still feel pain," Maddox's voice was cold. He sneered.

Kimberly covered her forehead and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Don't fight with other people next time," Maddox said. His deep gaze fell on her face.

There were several scratches on her fair face. Maddox looked at them as if they had scratched his heart.

"Okay," Kimberly responded.

She didn't want to fight with others, but she really couldn't control herself at that time.

She heard a sigh. The hand on her chin moved to the back of her head, pressing her onto his chest. She leaned on his chest, not knowing what was going on. Why did she have a feeling that... Maddox seemed to care about her?

Was she mistaken?
