In the middle of the night, Kimberly felt an itch on her back, but it was somehow comfortable as if someone was rubbing her painful wound for her.

She was extremely sleepy to the point that she didn't open her eyes at all, moaning subconsciously.

Maddox paused for a while, helplessly glanced at Kimberly who was sleeping. He pursed his thin lips and thought to himself, "D*mn woman, what am I even doing?"

She had already said that she would divorce him and cease living together with him. Anger spread through him. However, he was still worried about her wounds and waited for her to sleep before coming over in the middle of the night. He took off her clothes and applied some ointment on her wounds.

Such matters...

How could he even do such a thing?!

Maddox clenched his fingers into a fist. Nonetheless, when he saw her sleeping, rage overtook his face.

He released his fist, and his gestures became exceedingly soft as he applied ointment to her wound bit by bit.

Kimberly had been sleeping soundly the whole time and had not woken up.

When Maddox was finally done, he stared at her for a long time while she was in a deep sleep. He couldn't resist complaining.

"What an ungrateful woman! Don't you know that those words could hurt me too?"

"You said that I have a sharp tongue? Were my words that cruel?"

Maddox began to doubt himself.

He asked Sam in the car on the way to work the next day.

"Do my words usually sound harsh?"

Sam was driving the car. When he heard Maddox's question, he suddenly paused and glanced at Maddox through the rearview mirror. He queried strangely, "Why did you ask this all of a sudden?" Sam's eyes made Maddox even more irritated. He pursed his lips, replying, "It's nothing." S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
