Chapter 58


    "I could write up a contract if you don''t believe me. When I leave your ce, I will slowly return the


    money to you!" Kimberly Shell said when she saw him looking at her in distrust. She stepped


    forward anxiously.


    "Stop right there."


    Kimberly stopped in her track and looked at him at a loss.


    "Step back."


    Kimberly didn''t know why but since it was Maddox''s orders, she could only turn around.


    And then?


    "Get out."


    What the hell? Wasn''t the matter not solved yet? But in thepany, he was her boss. Kimberly


    could only listen to him and leave the office.


    Back at her own desk, Kimberly suddenly remembered Chandler Lovis, who was beaten up at the


    cafe that day. Maddox Yardley had said that he wanted to break his legs, but she didn''t know...


    whether it was true or not.


    "I hope that it''s not true."


    After turning on herptop, Kimberly was ready to work. However, in less than two minutes, she


    was so sleepy that she started to doze off.


    "No!" Kimberly held her head up. She was an assistant, and she had to work hard. She tried hard to


    keep herself awake. Kimberly held the documents for a long time, and finally banged her head on


    the hard table.


    Boom!


    Kimberly suddenly woke up after hitting her own forehead on the table.


    It was so painful...


    She couldn''t continue reading the document anymore, so Kimberly put it down and got up to make


    herself a cup of coffee.


    When she came back after brewing herself some coffee, she saw a familiar figureing out of the


    elevator.


    "Sister Kimberly."


    It was Maddox''s brother, Benedict Yardley.


    "Hello, Vice President Yardley." Kimberly quickly greeted him. She knew her own ce, so she


    called him Vice President Yardley whenever they were in thepany.


    Benedict walked towards her. He was wearing a white shirt, and he looked like a charming


    gentleman.


    "You don''t have to be so polite. We are family. Is Maddox here?"


    Kimberly nodded. "He is in his office."


    "Mmm." Before Benedict left, he nced at Kimberly and smiled in a low voice. "Sister Kimberly,


    don''t drink so much next time, okay? It''s not good for your health." Hearing this, Kimberly was a little


    surprised. "Vice President Yardley?"


    How did he know that she drank? Could it be that she still reeked of alcohol?


    "Last night, when you and Maddox came back, I happened to meet you both." Benedict put his


    hand on her head and gently stroked her head. "Really, don''t drink too much. It''s not good for your


    stomach and skin."


    Benedict said and went to the office to look for Maddox. Kimberly was stunned, and she reached


    out to touch her hair after a long time...


    Did...Benedict just stroked her hair?"


    Benedict was really a very gentle and kind man. His gentleness could be seen in his eyes and soft


    voice. Furthermore he was a really handsome man...


    Kimberly suddenly reached out and patted her own head!


    What was she thinking about?


    "How could I think about these things?" Kimberly came to her senses and sat down.


    Benedict entered the office and didn''te out for a long time. She didn''t know why Benedict was


    looking for Maddox. Kimberly faintly had an ominous premonition and felt that something was going


    to happen.


    Ten minutester, the elevator doors opened again. This time, several people came out of the


    elevator. Kimberly looked at them and understood where her unknown premonition came from.


    It was not someone else who hade, but Old Master Yardley himself. He was the one who had


    ordered her to look for Chandler Lovis.


    He was followed by another old man who was around his age. It seemed that he was trying to stop


    the angry Old Master.


    Seeing this, Kimberly thought of something and suddenly turned towards the office. This time, she


    didn''t knock on the door but directly pushed the door of the office open. Her rude actions caught the


    attention of the two men in the office.


    For a moment, both of them looked at her.


    "Kimberly? What is it..."


    All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    "Old... Old Master Yardley is here!" Kimberly looked at Maddox and bit her lower lip.


    Maddox''s expression did not change. He remained calm as usual. However, Benedict frowned


    slightly and sighed helplessly. "Why did Grandpae so suddenly? Maddox, I''m not trying to


    lecture you but, if you have gone with me to see Grandpa, he wouldn''t have to..."


    Boom!


    Before he could finish his words, the door of the office was pushed open. Old Master Yardley came


    in with two old men beside him.


    "How arrogant are you! Why do you have to let me, an old man,e to you in person? Maddox


    Yardley, do you have the consciousness of being a child?!" His hoarse voice was full of anger.


    Kimberly''s face changed, and she quickly stepped aside.


    Maddox''s eyes were cold and empty, and his voice was emotionless.


    "Grandpa, we are two generations apart, I''m not your child." After he said that, his lips curled, and a


    wicked grin appeared on his face.


    It was obvious that he was deliberately taunting the Old Master.


    "You!" Old Master Yardley was so angry that his eyes widened. "You brat, do you even acknowledge


    me as your grandfather?"


    "What''s the matter?" Maddox smiled again. "If there''s nothing else, I won''t see you off."


    "Maddox, you should respect your elders. You''re being too disrespectful."


    "Uncle Mason? You''d rathere to my office to teach me how to treat the elders instead of


    working at your station?"


    "You!"


    "Maddox Yardley, we are still all your elders. We won''t care if you don''t respect us. But aren''t you


    too rude to the Old Master?"


    "Respect?" Maddox sneered and said, "No one has taught me what respect is since I was a child."


    Old Master Yardley paused and said angrily, "Are you still ming me for it?"


    Maddox didn''t say anything. Kimberly looked at them, as if she had caught some important


    information from Maddox''s words.


    He said that no one had taught him what respect was since he was a child. What could that mean?


    Could it be...? While Kimberly was cracking her head, Old Master Yardley suddenly snorted and


    walked to the sofa to sit down. "You don''t have anyone to teach you so you are impolite and ill-


    mannered, this I will not me you. But you shouldn''t be messing around. What''s going on with you


    and Lovis Enterprises?"


    Maddox didn''t say anything.


    Kimberly quietly nced at Maddox and found that his eyes were drooping. His eyes were dark and


    as deep as the sea, as if there were some emotions surging in it.


    "I had already agreed to coborate with Lovis Enterprises. Why did it suddenly change? And even


    if you had changed your decision, why did you hit their people? Do you know how much trouble it


    would bring to Yardley Corporation?"


    "Grandpa." Maddox suddenly called him seriously.


    Old Master Yardley stopped and stared at him, as if he was waiting for his exnation.


    Maddox raised his eyes slightly and said with an evil look, "If I remember correctly, I''m the President


    of Yardley Corporation. Isn''t it up to me to decide about the coboration?"


    "Even if it''s your decision, you still ought to at least give a reason, don''t you? If you couldn''t exin,


    then I have the right to suspend your position!"


    "Ha." Maddox sneered and said, "Then you''d better give it a try."


    "You!" Old Master Yardley stood up in anger and pointed at Maddox with his trembling fingers. "Is


    this your attitude toward your elders?!" Kimberly was shocked when she heard this. It was partly her


    fault, but why didn''t Maddox... say anything about it?
