Benedict looked at Kimberly proudly. His eyes smiled, emanating a proud warmth. In his heart, he couldn't help but praise her silently.

This girl was not as helpless as he had imagined.

Just then, Benedict interrupted at the right time and said, "Lincoln, I can't believe this. You accused her of not doing her job, but you didn't even allow her to explain herself. What if I were as rash as you and questioned your ability?"

Lincoln began to tremble in fear. He did not know how he should respond to that question of Vice President Yardley.

Lincoln shifted his gaze to Maddox.

However, Maddox was still staring at Kimberly. He watched her as she printed out the documents calmly, as though all of this wasn't affecting her at all.

Maddox then subconsciously glanced at Benedict. He saw him smiling at Kimberly, and a ball of fury was set ablaze in his heart. He sneered and said, "You are playing tricks on the first day of your demotion. Surely, there was an opportunity for you to explain yourself. However, you didn't and you are only trying to defend yourself now. Your printing has taken extra time out of our meeting. We have now lost 5 minutes because of your mistakes."

"Maddox, this is an unexpected situation. Let's..." Benedict tried to defend her, but before he could finish his sentence to say let the incident slide, Maddox interrupted him.

"I'll deduct your quarterly bonus," Maddox said.

Maddox's indifferent gaze fell on both Kimberly and Lincoln as he spoke.

He continued, "Yardley Corporation don't need people who like to play tricks. If this happens again, you'll be fired at once."

Lincoln was so intimidated by Maddox's fierce gaze that he couldn't even straighten his bowing posture. In addition to his warning, Lincoln broke out in a cold sweat.

As for Kimberly who had gotten used to Maddox's attitude after marrying him, when compared to Lincoln's pallid face, she was much calmer.

In the meantime, Kimberly finished printing the documents. She put them in folders and passed them out to everyone one by one.
