Her words made Benedict's heart skip a beat.

"Do you regret it?"

Kimberly struggled and simply did not answer him. Benedict suddenly remarked, "I'll leave this place with you."

"Come again?"

"Together we'll leave North City and escape far far away."

Kimberly was lost for words. "Benedict, are you out of your mind? How can you say something like that? I am your brother's wife!"

"That's a fake. Why are you being pretentious towards me? Or do you think that this is an excuse to reject me?" Benedict grabbed her wrist intensely and shot her a deep stare.

"Do you think that I don't know anything about you and Maddox? He forced you to sign a contract and leave the Yardley Family in half a year, right?"

Kimberly's eyes widened in disbelief. This was originally a secret between her and Maddox. Nobody could possibly know it apart from Sam and Abigail, not forgetting Sylvia as well.

How did Benedict find out?

"Are you wondering how I know about this matter?" His eyes were gleaming with a hint of menace. He mentioned in a low voice, "You'll understand as soon as you think about it. Why would I know about your divorce? It's simply because Maddox doesn't like you and wants to divorce you as soon as possible."

"Stop it," Kimberly interrupted him. She met his gaze, biting her lip. "Brother, I have told you long ago that even if Maddox doesn't like me, I won't like you either. I will soon find a way to return the three hundred thousand dollars to you. Please don't mention to me these things in the future. I will treat it as nothing happened today. I'll make a move first."

Kimberly then turned away and left directly.

Perhaps Benedict was provoked by her words, or he got really anxious because of her. He instantly pulled her back, grabbed her head with his hand and he was about to kiss her.
