"I see.1' Sylvia tilted her head slightly, her slender neck glimmered under the sunlight coming from the window. "Then... why don't you join us just this once? You can just have a cup of tea or eat something light."

For some reason, Kimberly glanced at Maddox subconsciously.

Maddox was expressionless. When he saw her looking at him, he raised his eyebrows. Kimberly pursed her lips together, feeling the anger surging within her.

"I'll pass. I'm already full. You two should go ahead," replied Kimberly.

"Oh..." Sylvia looked at her with slight disappointment and asked again, "Kimberly, are you sure you don't want to join us?"

"Yes. I still have work to do. See you later." After that, Kimberly lowered her head and continued her work, ignoring them entirely. Sylvia turned to Maddox awkwardly and said, "Young Master Yardley, Kimberly doesn't want to join..."

"Let her be. Let's go," Maddox uttered indifferently, his eyes darkened and his aura grew colder.

"Alright." Sylvia nodded and looked back at Kimberly, reminding, "Kimberly, wait for our return. I'll bring you some snacks."

After that, she walked behind Maddox and happily pushed his wheelchair away. Soon, the two of them disappeared from sight.

After they had left, Kimberly's pen fell from her grip and onto the table with a clang.

She bit her lower lip and started mumbling under her breath.

"Kimberly, don't think too much. Sylvia is not that kind of person. They are only heading out for lunch as friends. Besides, she even asked you to join. You were the one who rejected her!" Yes, she had rejected Sylvia's invitation.

But why didn't she agree to join them? Deep down, she was obviously affected by it. She had wanted to join them. Then, why did she refuse?
