For the first time.

It was the first time that Kimberly thanked him in such a gentle way. Maddox felt his heart warming up. It turned out that... falling in love with a person was such a feeling.

Maddox had never felt this kind of warmth in the past, yet presently... he felt hungry for more.

He had been in dark days for too long, and he was very resistant towards her because of her identity.

However, after being with her day by day, he didn't expect that he couldn't resist her at all. She seemed to have some kind of magic power that made him solely want to protect her. Maddox shut his eyes and placed his hand on her back, embracing her tightly.

At this moment, Kimberly knew that although they were not doing it, this was the first time that their hearts were so connected to each other.

After this day, even if she would be alone in the future, she would still always remember this moment.

Kimberly and Maddox finally opened up to one another. Although Maddox had not confessed about what had happened between him and Sylvia. Kimberly felt that... she should just trust him. Therefore, she didn't ask about Sylvia again and silently waited for his answer.

However... During this period of time, Maddox forbade her from running around. He told her to stay in the villa instead. There would be people taking care of her meals day and night. Maddox would go out to work every day and come back at night. Subsequently, they would have dinner together. Indeed, they were living a happy life.

The servants knew that there was a Young Madam in the villa, hence they became busy and thought of ways to win Kimberly's favor every day.

The villa was originally quiet, yet it became much more vibrant since then. Sam was also happy to see both of them getting along well. He felt how nice it would be if they could last longer.

In spite of that, Maddox did not allow Kimberly to be in contact with the outside world. All of the news that she knew about the world out there came from Maddox.

Nevertheless, on this day, Kimberly demanded for her phone.
