Chapter 253


    "Kimberly!" Sylvia turned pale at once.


    Kimberly was particrly calm inparison to her.


    "Whatever you can''t say, I have already said it for you."


    Sylvia''s face turned extremely pale like a ghost as she was staring at Kimberly.


    Kimberly chuckled and pinched Sylvia''s cold cheek. "Why do you look so surprised?"


    "You, stop talking nonsense." Sylvia pulled her hand down and shook her head rapidly. "I have


    nothing to do with Maddox and I don''t like him either! You and I are not love rivals, we are best


    friends."


    "Best friends..." Kimberly murmured the words and lowered her head, her voice getting softer. "We


    are indeed good friends, but I didn''t expect that we would fall in love with the same person, and that


    you would even lie to me."


    "I didn''t lie to you!" Sylvia seemed really anxious. She then went over to her and held her hand as


    she exined, "Where did you get that from? Was it Vera? Did she use me again? You have to


    believe me, I really won''t be together with Maddox..."


    When she looked up, Kimberly saw that Sylvia''s pink earrings were dazzling with radiance due to


    the refraction of sunlight, as if they were mocking her words. "Sylvia, do you know?" Kimberly held


    her hand again and looked at her calmly. "I have seen those earrings before."


    Her words made Sylvia pausepletely.


    Sylvia opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something to Kimberly, but she was lost for words.


    Kimberly smiled leisurely andmented in a calm manner, "Feelings cannot be controlled. I won''t


    me you for that, though I still won''t forgive you either."


    Kimberly got up without looking at Sylvia anymore, and she looked towards the door in a distance.


    "We can no longer be best friends."


    Kimberly eventually left and Sylvia froze to the spot, then only did she realize that she was


    supposed to go after Kimberly and exin herself. Nevertheless, Kimberly was long gone by the


    time she ran towards the door.


    At this moment, Sylvia felt extremely nervous as she was clueless about what to do next. She didn''t


    expect Kimberly to find out about this matter so soon and confront her. She thought that she could


    still keep it a secret for some time.


    However, she didn''t expect Kimberly to be that straightforward that day.


    Sylvia took out her phone to give Kimberly a call, but her mobile phone was turned off. Sylvia


    started to be anxious as she couldn’t seem to find another way. All she could do was to look


    around for Kimberly.


    Sylvia searched for Kimberly for a long time, but she couldn’t find her. She could only make a move


    first and went back helplessly. Unexpectedly, she received a phone call from Sam, saying that


    Maddox wanted to see her.


    She was still feeling annoyed. Even so, after hearing that Maddox wanted to see her, she


    immediately put the negative thoughts away and hurried to the location with excitement.


    When she arrived at the destination, she found that Maddox was looking at her with his cold eyes.


    Conversely, Sylvia still wore a gentle smile and walked over, "Maddox, you want to meet me?"


    When Sam saw Sylvia, he took two steps back and tried to stay away from her as far as possible.


    Although he knew the whole story, he disliked this woman. It was annoying to even just look at her.


    How could such a woman betray her best friend so easily like that? The way she looked at Maddox


    was like she wanted to stick her eyeballs onto him.


    Maddox did not answer her. He shot a nce at her and saw the pink earrings on her ears. His


    eyes were as sharp as an eagle''s as he suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her to his side.


    "Who asked you to wear those earrings?"


    His voice was as cold as ice like a knife.


    "Ah, it hurts!" A red bruise appeared on Sylvia''s wrist, and it hurt so much that her face turned pale.


    Maddox was still not letting go of her, and he looked at her angrily, "Who allowed you to mess with


    my things? Tell me!"


    Sylvia was in so much pain that her tears were dropping. "It fell out of your suit pocket that night. I


    saw it and I liked it very much, so..."


    “You stole it if you took it without my permission! Does the Young Miss of the Hanover Familyck


    such a thing?"


    Seeing those earrings on her ears, Maddox didn''t know why he felt like the earrings were


    contaminated.


    When Kimberly was putting it on, he felt that it was lovely, but he didn''t expect that she would


    actually turn away without buying it. Thus, he went back to buy it after that, and was ready to find a


    chance to give it to her.

    Nheless, who would have thought that Sylvia would actually take it away?


    "I''m sorry!" Sylvia felt that her hand was about to be snapped off. She was in so much agony, tears


    streamed down her cheeks. She kept on apologizing to Maddox. "I''m really sorry. I like this pair of


    earrings a lot, that was why I took it. If you''re angry, I''ll give them back to you."


    She reached out her other hand to undo the earrings.


    She didn’t expect that Maddox would suddenly push her hand away, he replied coldly, “Never mind,


    those earrings are worthless now."


    Upon hearing his words, Sylvia stopped as she looked at Maddox in surprise, "What do you mean?"


    Sam couldn''t resist exining, "It means that you have contaminated the earrings. Oh, Miss


    Hanover, don''t you have any manners? Do you take others'' things without asking? You are not Miss


    Hanover, are you? Are you pretending to be her?" He was merelyining, but his words


    pricked right into Sylvia''s heart, and she suddenly became furious. She red at Sam, "What the


    hell are you talking about?"


    Sam was frightened by the viciousness in her eyes. "What is that look?"


    Maddox’ s gaze swept over her and Sylvia''s expression changed. She looked pitiful at the present


    moment. "Maddox, I''m really sorry... I didn''t mean to wear them. I just woke up at that time and saw


    them, and thought that they were very beautiful. I thought you were giving them to me, hence I...


    wore them. I really didn''t mean any harm. Trust me, I won''t touch your stuff again."


    After that, Sylvia quickly took off the earrings and put them back on Maddox''s palm.


    "There you go. I promise you that as long as you won''t let me touch something, I will never touch it


    again."


    The earrings were returned to Maddox''s hands. He looked at them and felt annoyed, mocking,


    “You''ve already worn them. Do you think I''ll still want them?"


    Sylvia''s face turned pale, and even the color on her lips was gone. She bit her lower lip and said in


    a trembling voice, "I know. You bought the earrings for Kimberly, didn''t you? I''m really sorry. If I


    knew that, I wouldn''t have touched the earrings no matter what!"


    Sylvia next raised her hand and pped herself in the face. "It''s my fault. I shouldn''t have appeared


    in front of you. I''ll go to Kimberly and admit my mistake!"
