Chapter 262


    Kimberly was in a deep slumber for the whole night. When she woke up, she realized that the sun


    was bright and the whole room was filled with natural light. She subconsciously looked for her


    phone but to no avail.


    She was dumbfounded as she looked around, only then did she realize that she was lying on


    Maddox''s bed.


    After being in a daze for a few seconds, Kimberly sat up. She clearly remembered that she was


    sleeping on her own bedst night. How did she appear on his bed when she woke up?


    Kimberly looked at her own bed on the ground and found that it was kept away again.


    "Ah, d*mn it!"


    That b*stard asked the servant to take her things away again.


    How many times did he want to y such tricks?


    Kimberly threw the quilt aside angrily and got out of bed. She spotted her mobile phone on the


    bedside table. As she checked on the time through her phone, she found out that it was almost


    noon.


    Unexpectedly, she slept till this hour. She could really sleep a lot nowadays.


    Kimberly tried to fully rouse herself, then went to wash up.


    Kimberly felt ufortable all over as she went to bed directly without taking a bath the night


    before. Therefore, she headed in for a bath.


    When Kimberly took off her clothes, she found that there was ointment on her clothes, which made


    her feel a little curious.


    She did not apply any ointment on her wounds the previous day. How could her clothes get stained


    with ointment?


    Kimberly held her clothes while being in a daze. She immediately remembered that in the middle of


    the night there was a pair of gentle hands touching her back.


    It was exactly the same feeling when he applied medicine for her before...


    The warmth of his fingers and the coldness of the ointment...


    However, Kimberly thought that she was dreamingst night, and she couldn''t wake up, thus she


    just ignored it.


    Presently she thought about it. Was it Maddox who woke up in the middle of the night to apply the


    ointment for her?


    Subsequently, Kimberly shook her head and murmured with a wry smile, "How could it be possible?


    He might even hate me, would he even apply medicine for me in the middle of the night?"


    "I''m just thinking too much."


    Kimberly threw the clothes on the rack next to her and went in to take a shower.


    When she came out of the bathroom, there was a maid knocking on the door. As soon as she


    opened, she was taken aback by the scene before her.


    The maids pushed a row of hanging clothes into the room, and they hung them one by one in the


    wardrobe.


    "What... are you all doing?"


    "Young Master Yardley asked us to put them in here. He said that they were all for you."


    After bringing in the clothes, a lot of jewelry was also sent in, followed by countless cosmetics


    products. Then two big wardrobes and a dressing table were brought in as well.


    The maid looked at her respectfully andmented, "Second Young Master said that you can tell


    him if you have any requests and he will satisfy you."


    The maid''s face was full of envy when she said that. Maddox was just too good to Kimberly.


    Kimberly didn''t know what to say.


    Maddox had been living alone back then, therefore the room was just simple. The room was


    suddenly packed with all her possessions.


    Nevertheless, as she was looking at these things before her, it didn''t warm her heart at all.


    Her heart sank to the bottom of her stomach. How could it be possible to warm her by doing all


    these?


    On the contrary, these materialistic things that hepensated felt more like a humiliation to her.


    Kimberly promptly raised her lips and scorned, "What does he mean? Does he think he can just buy


    me over with these? Tell him that even so, I won''t change my mind."


    "The maid was stupefied, staring at her in bewilderment.


    Kimberly threw her a nce and saw that the maid was full of puzzlement, obviously knowing


    nothing of it.


    "Miss Shell, what you said just now..."


    "I didn''t say anything just now. You''ve worked hard today. I don''tck anything here. You may


    leave."


    The maid gave a nod, saying, "Okay, I''ll make a move first. You can call me if you need anything."


    "Alright, thank you."


    After she left, Kimberly sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at the newly added clothes. The


    clothes were all dazzling and fancy.


    In spite of that, she was not interested in them at all.


    Perhaps, Maddox felt that women liked and would want such things. Hence, he thought he could


    use these to buy her over.


    Despite that, even if she was poor to the point that she could barely afford to eat, she wouldn''t want


    to be with a man who had been seeing multiple women.


    As Maddox was signing a contract, Sam came in to report that all the things had been delivered.


    Maddox paused for a moment and asked, "Do you really think she would like these things?"


    "Of course not just these." Sam sighed. "In order to win a woman''s heart, the act of sending these is


    very important, but the most important thing is you."


    Maddox frowned when he heard that. "Me?"


    Sam nodded, as if he was a counselor giving Maddox some advice. "If you want her to feel secure,


    tell her words that are more gentle and pleasant. Let her realize that you like her."


    "Wait." Maddox interrupted him with a frown and mocked. "Who told you that I like her?"


    Sam retorted, "Don''t you like her?"


    Maddox had no idea how to refute him at once.


    Sam queried, "Then why do you want to win her heart?"


    Maddox didn''t say a word, a frown wrinkling his forehead. He stared at Sam dangerously.


    "Well, I see. You don''t like her. You merely don''t want her to like someone else."


    As Maddox simply didn''t want to make a fool of himself, Sam could only y along if Maddox


    refused to.


    "Anyway, it should be fine if you did ording to what I said!"


    Maddox instantly thought of something. He stared at Sam for a while and questioned, "Do you have


    a girlfriend?"


    Sam had been single for many years. He blushed with embarrassment, answering, "No."


    "Never?"


    Sam nodded. "Yes. What does this have to do with Maddox gave a smirk. "You don''t even have a


    girlfriend. How dare you teach me how to pursue women?"


    "I don''t have a girlfriend, not because I couldn''t date any women, but because I don''t have time to


    date instead!" Sam gnashed his teeth and tried to speak for himself. He had been single for so


    many years as he was Maddox''s assistant. He would even have to get up in the middle of the night


    sometimes. As such, he had been serving Maddox for almost 24 hours a day!


    How could he date someone when he had devoted all his youth to his work?


    "Is that so?" Maddox nced at him with suspicion, feeling doubtful.


    Sam felt as if he was losing his dignity as a man. He yelled while clenching his teeth furiously,


    "Since you think my method is unreliable, find someone else then!"


    He turned around and left in a sh. Maddox did not request Sam to stay either. He was


    preupied in his thoughts.


    Gentle? To let her know that he liked her?


    How was this even considered as gentle?


    D*mn it!


    F*ck!

    Maddox cursed in a low voice and abruptly pushed all the things on his desk down irritably.
