Did Benedict know that she was pregnant?

Would he suspect that this child was his? Or would this remind him about that rainy night?

Seeing that her face turned pale in an instant, Benedict frowned faintly and queried in a low-pitched voice, "Didn't you know anything about this?" Kimberly shook her head and shrank back.

Benedict's hand paused in mid-air, he pursed his lips and questioned, "Is it Maddox's?"

Before she could answer, Benedict continued, "No, Maddox is disabled, he probably couldn't do that. Then..." His sharp gaze fell on her countenance.

"Shut up!" Kimberly exclaimed loudly before he could speak again.

Benedict was dumbfounded for a while. "Kimberly?"

Kimberly shrank herself to the corner as she hugged her knees and looked at Benedict vigilantly, "This has nothing to do with you!"

Her gaze looked as if she was guarding herself against a thief, which made Benedict's heart go cold. He stared at her, a frown wrinkling his forehead, "Do you hate me that much?"

Kimberly's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. Before she could react, Benedict stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. "Why? What have I done to deserve this? Do you hate me that much? I have been treating you well since you entered the Yardley Family, and I even..."

Kimberly wanted to break free of his grasp, yet it was tight, unlike his usual gentle self. He held her wrist tightly and she could not get rid of it. No matter how hard she struggled, and she was mad at once, "Even what? Benedict, let go of me."

"I even gave you my heart." Benedict stared deeply into her eyes with agony. "However, you are extremely wary of me and you hate me. Kimberly, what have I done wrong?"

Kimberly met his painful gaze with a little guilt. He had been the one coming to her rescue on her rainy days. In fact, he had been helping her ever since she joined the family, not forgetting the last time when she was humiliated by her own mother in public, and even with Jonathan.
