Kimberly nodded. "Is there any problem with that?"

Kimberly was staring at Maddox the whole time when she raised that question, trying to spot the changes in his expression.

It was the first time Maddox avoided her gaze. Instead, he looked elsewhere and uttered coldly, "No."

"Oh, I'm going to be on leave today then. I'll leave first."

Kimberly grabbed her handbag and walked out of the door.

"Stop right there," Maddox suddenly called out.

Kimberly was rooted to the spot. Maddox did not realize the sullen look on Kimberly's face from the back. Her expression changed substantially when she was facing him.

"Are you sure you're going out with her alone? Not anyone else?"

Upon hearing this, Kimberly turned around and smiled at him.

"Do you think that I'll go on a date with another man behind your back?"

Maddox frowned unhappily and glared at her with a solemn look.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in such things. Besides, if I was really going on dates with men, I wouldn't have flaunted myself that much in front of you."

Kimberly left the room immediately after finishing her words.

This feeling caught him off guard.
