Kimberly bit her lower lip and retracted her hands.

"What makes you think I have time for that?" she asked.

"You don't?" Maddox's eyes were fixed on her, and his tone was a little aggressive.

Kimberly pursed her lips and stared straight into Maddox's eyes.

She said, "Why are you bringing up all the stuff I did when I was drugged? I couldn't think straight. That's why I did all that."

"Oh?" Maddox's thin lips curled into a smirk. Suddenly, he reached out and pulled Kimberly into his arms, his other hand pressing on the back of her head. They were so close that they could feel each other's heartbeats.

He said, "You couldn't think straight? Tell me, why did you reject Benedict? Just say that you like me."

At that moment, Kimberly froze like she was struck by lightning. She glanced at Maddox's thick brows, her gaze going over his alluring eyes, his sharp nose, and landed on his thin lips. Her heart was racing. The two of them were so close. Kimberly could see the emotions lurking in the depths of his pupils.

Kimberly looked at him blankly. She felt her soul being sucked into Maddox's deep eyes. "What about you?" she suddenly asked.

Maddox was stunned.

Kimberly looked at him and repeated, "Do you like me?"

Maddox's brows twitched as he narrowed his eyes.

Kimberly took a deep breath and gazed at him calmly, adding, "I won't fall for someone who doesn't love me. If you don't have feelings for me, why should I have feelings for you?"
