Chapter 131


    "Ah! What are you doing?" Kimberly eximed and tried to turn her head to look at her back.


    "Don''t move." Maddox frowned and looked at the zipper in confusion. He didn''t understand how it


    broke. "Let me see what''s going on," he said.


    Kimberly was furious. How could she leave the restroomter if the zipper was broken?


    When she thought of how all her ns would be destroyed, she was outraged. Her heart felt as if it


    was being gripped tightly.


    "There''s no need to look at it. Maddox, you did it on purpose, didn''t you?" Kimberly questioned with


    a grime face.


    Maddox was still looking at it, but when he heard her words, his hands stilled. He lifted his eyelids


    slightly and stared at her with his dark eyes, asking, "Do you take me as that kind of person?"


    "What else?" Kimberly was so pissed that her eyes turned red as she spoke, "Do you know how


    much effort I''ve put in for today? This is the first time I have seriously discussed a business since I


    joined the Yardley Corporation. Can''t you take things more seriously? Why do you have toe out


    and make trouble, and even use me of seducing men? Anyway, in your eyes, I am just a whore


    who only thinks about seducing men, right?"


    As she spoke angrily, Maddox''s eyes gradually darkened with each word she uttered. Kimberly''s


    eyes were red and brimming with tears. When she straightened her back and was about to turn


    around, Maddox put a piece of suit jacket around her body. She stopped moving and turned her


    head, looking at him in surprise.


    "You can wear this for now," he exined.


    After giving her the suit jacket, there was only a white blouse left on Maddox''s body. There was a


    hint of arrogance in his eyes.


    He wanted her to wear his suit jacket?


    Although she didn''t want to, she was also very helpless. She couldn''t go out with her naked back


    now, could she?


    In the end, Kimberly could only give him a ferocious stare. Then, she pulled the jacket tighter


    around her body, opened the door and rushed out.


    It just so happened that the restaurant manager had called someone toe over. Just as he was


    about to open the door, it was opened from the inside. Then, a girl rushed out of the restroom, her


    eyes were red.


    "Huh? How did youe out from the inside? Wasn''t the lock broken..." However, he stopped


    speaking when he saw Maddox. The restaurant manager looked back at the fast-moving figure and


    then at Maddox, who was sitting in the wheelchair.


    He suddenly realized what was going on...


    Could it be that they were...


    Before the thought came to his mind, Maddox nced at him. The intense pressure rendered the


    restaurant manager speechless. When he fixed his gaze on Maddox, the manager''s face changed


    dramatically and thought, "Isn''t this President Yardley?"


    He didn''t expect him to be here...


    "President, President Yardley!" The restaurant manager eximed in a nervous stutter.


    Maddox pursed his lips coldly and asked in a light voice, "What did you see just now?"


    The restaurant manager answered hurriedly, "I didn''t see anything."


    "Ha." Maddox smiled with satisfaction, "Well done. I''ll give you a bonus at the end of this year."


    The restaurant manager smiled tteringly, "Thank you, President Yardley. I have to find someone


    to fix the door lock since it is broken. President Yardley, you can go ahead with your business first."


    Maddox nced at him, acknowledging that the man was quite smart. He then straightened his tie


    and then left in his wheelchair.


    After he left, the restaurant manager looked back at the two people following him and ordered,


    "Hurry up and fix the door lock."


    The two men rolled their eyes inwardly and thought, "This lock is still good, how can we fix it?


    Should we repair it with air?"

    When Kimberly reappeared at the table, she had a man''s jacket on her shoulders.


    Juliette looked at her strangely as she wondered, "Wasn''t she in the restroom? Why did she..." Quill


    was calmer than Juliette, he nced at the jacket and then looked away.


    Not long after Kimberly came in, Maddox returned as well. The suit jacket on his body had


    disappeared. Juliette blinked her eyes and a light bulb shed in her mind.


    Sam did not know how to respond to the situation.


    The atmosphere was so awkward.


    "Well..." Kimberly forced herself to calm down. She put the documents she had prepared on the


    table and said, "President Hanover, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule. It''s a great


    honor for ourpany to be able to have lunch with you. Please take a look at these documents


    first."


    Then, she put the documents on the table and pushed them towards him.


    Finally, it was time to get to the point. Juliette let out a sigh of relief and took the documents. She


    scanned through them and asked a few questions.


    Since Maddox had also joined them, almost all the wine and dishes were served. When the waiter


    poured the wine for them, Kimberly looked at the flowing liquid and felt very distressed.


    Each drop of wine was her money spent.


    Sigh.


    Quill noticed her painful expression and managed to guess what was going on. There was a slight


    glint of humor in his dark eyes.


    "President Hanover," Maddox called him with his icy tone, pulling him back to reality. Quill looked up


    at Maddox and their eyes met.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Pleasure to do business with you."


    Then, the two of them clinked their sses.


    At this time, someone pushed open the restaurant door anxiously. A pretty girl in a fashionable light


    pink suit ran in and began to look around. When she saw Kimberly and Quill sitting face to face, her


    face nched.


    She was about to run over towards them. However, Sylvia suddenly thought of something.


    "Won''t I look guilty if I ran over so suddenly? Quill is so witty. He might realize something if I''m not


    careful."


    Thinking of this, Sylvia did not dare to run up to them directly.


    She could only suppress the anxiety in her heart and walk towards them with a smile.


    "Quill, why didn''t you tell me you came back? Kimberly!" Sylvia said when she approached them.


    Her voice was full of expectation. Her cute expression was as though she was especially overjoyed


    to learn that Quill had returned to Hidalgo.


    "Sylvia?" Kimberly heard her voice and moved her lips, "You''re here?"


    Sylvia walked directly to Kimberly and stood in front of her. She coughed softly and said, "Hey,


    Secretary Sharpio is also here. Are you guys having a business talk?"


    Juliette nodded. Quill was still expressionless.


    "I''m sorry, Quill, I didn''t know you guys were having a business talk. I heard from the driver that you


    didn''t take his car after getting off the ne, so I came over. I didn''t expect..." She shed an


    apologetic smile.


    Quill finally looked up at her and said in a steady voice,


    "It''s okay. Sit down."


    "Thank you, Quill!" Sylvia quickly sat down next to Kimberly. She looked hopeful and happy on the


    surface, but in fact, her heart was pounding.


    After sitting down, she noticed that Maddox was also here. Her eyes lit up and she greeted him,


    "Ah, Young Master Yardley is here too. Hello."


    Maddox nodded in response.


    Originally, they were just here to discuss thepanies'' cooperation. Now, somehow there were


    two more people at the table.


    They were Maddox and Sylvia.


    All of a sudden, Kimberly was clueless as to how to continue with the negotiation. She truly didn''t


    know whether tough or cry at the current situation.
