Benedict saw her taking a few steps back and his eyes dimmed. "Am I a demon?" He asked.

"Ah?" Kimberly did not understand what he meant and looked up at him in confusion.

Benedict smiled bitterly and asked, "If I'm not a demon, why are you so afraid of me?"

Kimberly apologized,"... I'm sorry, Brother Yardley."

She was not afraid of him. She was just afraid that Maddox would cause her trouble when he saw them together. That man... Although he didn't like her, his possessiveness was really strong.

She was still the Second Young Madam of the Yardley family after all.

"It's okay, I don't blame you." Benedict smiled gently at her and said, "I'll help you out here. You can go upstairs first."

Hearing this, Kimberly's expression shifted slightly and said, "How can I let you do that? I can do it on my own. Brother Yardley, you can go and do your work."

She didn't have the chance to thank him for helping her in the canteen last time. And now here she was, hiding from him. She felt a little guilty, so she lowered her voice and thanked him, "By the way, Brother Yardley, thank you for what you did in the canteen last time."

"Don't worry about it. Maddox went to pick you up after that, right?" Speaking of this, Benedict smiled a little and said, "Maddox still cares about you a lot."

Suddenly, Kimberly noticed that Maddox was no longer in the meeting room.

Perhaps, he didn't want to see her now.

Kimberly's mood sank and she silently laughed at herself. She uttered, "Well, perhaps."

to clarify it, just in case he suddenly sent her more cakes one day or offered to take her for dessert or something. It would be a waste of his efforts. Benedict didn't expect her to be so sincere. At first, he was stunned, but after a while, he laughed and rubbed her head again, "Kimberly, I'm so glad."
