"Brother..."
Kimberly was so baffled that she couldn't help taking a couple more steps backwards, avoiding Benedict's touch, "What... what are you talking about?"
Benedict looked straight into her eyes. He stared at her unwaveringly and forced a bitter smile, "You are a smart girl. I'm sure you know what I mean." Kimberly was frightened and her face blanched at once.
She was Maddox's wife. How could Benedict do this to his own brother? At this moment, Kimberly's mind was in a mess. She shook her head while taking a few steps back again, but Benedict went up to her and grabbed her shoulder. He continued, "You saw his reaction last night. He didn't care about you at all, Kimberly. My heart ached for you. I don't want you to suffer anymore."
"Let me go!" Kimberly's lips trembled as she struggled away from him, "Even if Maddox doesn't care about me, why would you? You are his brother!"
"That's exactly why! I've been holding back all this time because I'm his brother!" Benedict blurted and his tone was harsh. Suddenly, the atmosphere went freezing as he spoke again, "If he wasn't my brother, would have harmed him for hurting you."
Kimberly's lips were stiffened into a straight line and she stayed silent. Staring at him incredulously, she couldn't believe what was happening.
How could this happen? Did Benedict have feelings for her? Or... was he just sick of watching her living such a miserable life and pitied her?
"I don't want to see you getting hurt again, do you understand?"
"No!" Kimberly thought of something important and abruptly pushed Benedict away, "You can't do this. You're Maddox's brother, and so you're my brother. We can't be together. I only came to tell you that I'm satisfied with the department I'm working in now. I won't accept the promotion!"
After she was done speaking, Kimberly straightaway dashed out of the office.
Valeria was waiting for her by the door. When Kimberly rushed out suddenly, Valeria was almost knocked down in the process. After giving a quick apology, Kimberly turned around and left in a hurry. Confused, Valeria watched her run away and turned to look at Benedict in the office.
"Vice President Yardley, what... What happened to her?"
Benedict looked on as Kimberly's figure disappeared out of sight. He lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly.
