Kimberly blinked her eyes, and her long eyelashes flickered. She thought for a long time.

"You clearly knew that I was going to meet Benedict that day. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I wasn't trying to hide it from you!"

She bit her lips and her heart was full of remorse.

She had always wondered why he was so angry, and why he looked so strange when he asked her that question. That thought kept bothering her. That was why she wanted to rush to the party that night. However, unexpectedly... many things happened which hindered her.

"Are you sure you didn't want to hide it from me?" Maddox looked at her mockingly, "What a liar. Do you remember what you said to me before you went out that day? You said that you had an appointment with Vera, didn't you? You said you didn't want to break your promise. You even told Sam that you would arrive at the party on time, but you didn't appear for the whole night!"

"I did appear that night!" Kimberly hurriedly defended herself, "I really went to the party that night. It's just that I arrived there late due to an accident. Moreover, I indeed went to meet Vera that night. Although I did meet Benedict, Vera was there too! I didn't lie to you!"

"Then, why didn't you just tell me?" Kimberly explained in a loud voice, but Maddox's voice was louder.

Kimberly was startled by his fierce voice. After staring at him for a while, she lowered her eyes weakly and replied, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have kept it from you... but... I was afraid that you'd misunderstand me if I told you the truth."

The relationship between Maddox and Benedict was very complicated and sensitive. Therefore, she didn't dare to mention it in front of Maddox.

"What a perfectly- thought of excuse," Maddox sneered and rebuked her.

Kimberly looked up at him and acknowledged, "It's my fault for not handling this situation well. I apologize to you. I..."

However, she could not finish her sentence no matter how hard she tried.

Kimberly felt very wronged and troubled. She took a deep breath and looked at him quietly.

His eyes were still cold and there was no trace of warmth in them. It was as if it was as cold as her heart.
