Kimberly let Maddox bury his face in her neck. She felt his chin on her shoulder. She initially thought that he was going to do something, but he remained still.

This made Kimberly feel a little strange. She could sense the sadness emanating from him as he remained in her arms.

Sadness?

For a moment, Kimberly thought that she was mistaken.

Was Maddox capable of having other emotions? Did he even get sad at all?

"What's wrong?" Kimberly asked, slightly concerned. Did she remind him of something?

However, Maddox did not respond or move. He remained silent in her arms. When Kimberly moved an inch, he grabbed her wrist and said hoarsely, "Don't move. Let me hold you for a while." His voice was low and hoarse, coming from a place of deep sadness.

Kimberly was stunned and felt her heart skip a beat. The tone of his voice... Was she right? Had she really felt sadness coming from him?

Kimberly didn't move anymore and let him lean against her. She even reluctantly raised her hands and placed them on his back.

When her hands landed on his back, she felt his body shake fiercely. It was only for a second, before he became still again.

The two of them sat together quietly. Maddox's head remained on her shoulders for the entire time. After a while, his breathing became still. Kimberly was dumbfounded.

Did he fall asleep? Kimberly discreetly looked down at him and saw the dark circles around his eyes. Turns out he had not been sleeping well recently.

Kimberly's heart softened as she looked at him and decided to let him stay in her arms a little longer. She did not dare to move a muscle.
