Chapter 5


    "I know."


    "You will work as Maddox''s assistant from tomorrow onwards."


    Upon hearing this, Kimberly Shell looked at Old Master Yardley in shock. "But..."


    "It''s settled. You will go to work with Maddox from tomorrow onwards. You must never leave him


    alone,"


    Old Master Yardley said without giving Kimberly any chance to say anything. Then, he waved his


    hand, signaling her to leave.


    Although Kimberly was reluctant to do so, she didn''t want to argue with the old master. She was


    afraid that he would find out the truth. Therefore, she decided to quit her current job and oblige the


    old master.


    The next day, Old Master Yardley asked Maddox Yardley to take Kimberly to thepany.


    "You''ve always been reluctant to hire an assistant and I know what you''re worried about. But Erica


    is your wife now and you should let her follow you and take care of you."


    The way Old Master Yardley spoke to Maddox in the same way that he spoke to Kimberly and she


    thought that it was a little strange. What was going on? She thought they had a good rtionship.


    Kimberly felt someone staring at her while she was immersed in her thoughts. It was obvious who


    the person staring at her was.


    Maddox stared at her and responded, "Okay."


    Kimberly was a little surprised. She thought that he would reject the idea.


    "Well, please leave now." Old Master Yardley''s facial expression softened a little.


    Maddox, on the other hand, had no facial expression at all. Sam Sorrento nodded at the old master


    and said, "Old Master Yardley, we''ll leave for thepany now."


    "Please remember to take Erica with you," old master said.


    Kimberly had no choice but to follow behind Maddox.


    Maddox sneered when they arrived at the garden. "Wow, you wasted no time in building a good


    rtionship with the old master. Are you trying to keep an eye on me?"

    Kimberly stopped in her tracks and frowned.


    "I don''t understand what you''re talking about," she said.


    Maddox sneered. "Haha! You''d better not do that, otherwise..."


    Maddox did not finish his sentence. However, Kimberly knew that he was threatening her.


    Kimberly was consumed by anger. First, she had to quit her job. Then, she was required to follow


    behind him all the time.


    They had agreed to stay away from each other. However, now they were forced to be together all


    the time. She didn''t want this to happen at all.


    They walked silently the whole way. Someone helped Maddox get into the car and Kimberly wanted


    to get in after him. However, Sam stopped her.


    He said, "Miss Shell, this is Young Master Yardley''s

    car.


    Kimberly was stunned. She asked, "What do you mean?"


    Maddox looked at her and sneered. "You''re not qualified to be my assistant."


    Upon hearing this, Kimberly''s facial expression changed. She asked, "Why did you agree to


    Grandpa then?"


    Maddox ignored her and looked away. Kimberly reached out her hand to stop Sam from closing the


    car door, saying, "What should I do if you leave? Grandpa..."


    Maddox narrowed his eyes and stared at Kimberly when she mentioned Old Master Yardley.


    "Sam, please tell her the route so that she can walk," he said.


    Kimberly was speechless. How could there be such an evil person?


    Sam told her the route with no expression on his face. Then, he closed the car door.


    Through the rearview mirror, Maddox looked at Kimberly who was standing at the main entrance.


    Then, he looked away. All of a sudden, he thought of something and he asked, "Is there any news


    on the woman I instructed you to find?"


    Sam replied apologetically, "Young Master Yardley, there is no surveince camera along that road.


    On top of that, it was raining heavily and no passersby could see clearly in the dark. Please give me


    some more time. I believe I can locate her."


    Upon hearing this, Maddox frowned and said, "It has been a month. That woman should be


    pregnant by now if someone deliberately nned this."


    Sam was shocked. It was a serious matter if the woman was really pregnant with Young Master


    Yardley''s child. Thinking of this, Sam became serious.


    He said, "I see. I''ll assign people to gather information from the hospital."


    Maddox narrowed his eyes.


    He had never touched a woman before and the woman from the other night was his first.


    Therefore, he had to find her!
