Maddox frowned as he stared at her unhappily. "Say that again?"

Kimberly smiled bitterly, stating, "What if I say it again? Would it change your mind? Since you don't care about me at all, you don't have to worry about my business then!"

"Don't worry about your business?" Maddox sneered, and his eyes were glistening with a trace of menace. "If that's the case, do you want to be with Benedict for real? Am I getting in between the both of you?" "Yes!" A sudden courage overwhelmed Kimberly as she blurted out loudly. She insisted on arguing with him till the end, "So what?"

At that moment, Maddox's pupils dilated vigorously, and then began to constrict again. He experienced heart palpitations, as if something was grasping on his neck tightly and it made him lose his breath. This d*mn woman!

How could she admit that she wanted to be with Benedict right in front of him?

Before he was able to cool down, Kimberly turned away from him.

"I like Benedict. He is considerate, modest and polite. He is so much better than someone like you who is arrogant and controlling. Maddox, you always thought that I like you. In fact, you are wrong. I don't like you at all. Even if all men ceased to exist anymore, I still won't fall for you either."

After finishing her sentence, Kimberly paid no attention to him and walked away.

Maddox sat on the wheelchair and his heart suddenly ached for some inexplicable reason as if it had been pricked by a needle. He reached out and pressed his chest, frowning with discomfort. Was... his heart aching?

Just because of that woman? How ridiculous!

Maddox looked at her back as she left. After a while, his thin lips curled into a cold and mocking smile.

She was just a woman, and there's nothing worth caring about for him. Maddox didn't need a woman in his life.

After Kimberly blurted out these words, she still couldn't stop herself from weeping when she laid down on bed.
