Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

"No, I can't. I promised Kimberly that I wouldn't tell anyone!"

Sylvia tried to pull her hand away from him. Her eyes were filled with tears.

"You promised Kimberly?" Maddox narrowed his eyes dangerously and asked menacingly, "What did you guys discuss behind my back?"

Sylvia suddenly realized that she had spilled the beans. She widened her eyes and said, "No, I didn't say anything. Kimberly should be coming up soon. You should let go of me. You just pretend that nothing happened today."

"Nothing happened?" Maddox's thin lips curved into a bloodthirsty smile, and he increased the force in his hand. "Do you think I am a fool? Do you think that I will fall for your lousy acting?"

Sylvia looked at Maddox in surprise, "Lousy acting skills?"

Maddox sneered and warned, "You better tell me the truth. You only have one chance."

Sylvia knew that she couldn't continue pretending. She slowly lowered her eyes and looked at the ground for a while, trying to calm herself down. Then she said slowly, "I didn't want to tell you because I am in a difficult position. Kimberly and I are good friends, and she is your wife. I have known this for a long time, but I chose not to say anything because I don't want to hurt her. Young Master Yardley, Kimberly is suffering. I don't want her to get hurt again. Can you please just pretend that nothing happened?"

"Tell me, who was that woman that night?" Maddox wanted to know badly who the woman was.

He had asked Sam to help him investigate the woman's identity. The news he had received was all fake, but now Sylvia had suddenly revealed that she knew about the matter. It was all too coincidental. Sylvia bit her lower lip tightly and stayed silent.

"Tell me!"

Sylvia was shocked. Tears started falling from the corners of her eyes. She couldn't help crying out, "I'm sorry. I can't say it. I can't let Kimberly down. Can you please forget about it?" While they were talking, they heard footsteps coming from outside of the room. Suddenly, from a distance, Kimberly called out, "Sylvia, are you still here?"

Sylvia's face changed dramatically when she heard Kimberly. She reached out to push Maddox away, but he had already let her go. He slowly moved his wheelchair away from her. It was obvious that his actions were subconscious. Sylvia wanted to pretend, but she didn't expect Maddox to act faster than her. It shocked her, and her face immediately went pale. The only reason Maddox did it was because he cared about Kimberly!
