Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 23

"Change your clothes,"

Maddox frowned and said.

Kimberly lowered her head and looked at the clothes she was wearing. These were her old clothes, and they did not worth much.

However, she felt comfortable wearing them. Also, Maddox did not comment on her fashion ever since they met, which was why she continued to wear them.

She bit her lower lip and said, "I know. I'll go to a nearby shopping mall to buy a new set of clothes after work."

"Sam!" Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Sam Sorrento, who was eavesdropping on the conversation, was shocked.

"What the hell? Did I get caught again?" He thought.

He had been caught eavesdropping twice, and he had sworn that he would never eavesdrop on Maddox's conversation again.

Sam dared not dawdle. He walked into the office immediately.

"Young Master Yardley."

Maddox looked at him coldly. Sam understood what he was going to say. Therefore, he asked tentatively, "Young Master Yardley, shall I take Miss Shell to buy a dress for tonight's banquet?" Sam was right! He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll prepare for it then."

Half an hour later.

The three of them went to the shopping mall.

Kimberly followed Maddox into a high-end clothing store. The decorations were luxurious, with soft music playing in the store.

Although Maddox was sitting in a wheelchair, it was obvious that his clothes were expensive. Also, he had a domineering demeanor. The shop assistant noticed his presence and approached him immediately.

"Hello, sir. Welcome to our store."

Maddox did not look at the shop assistant at all. Sam, who was standing behind him, said, "Please choose a dress for her. She's going to attend a banquet."

Kimberly was hiding behind Sam. She was a little scared.

It had been a long time since she visited this type of store. The luxurious interior of the store as well as its sparkling lights intimidated her. She used to come to this type of store with her good friends. However, she stopped coming after marrying Jonathan Lowell.

The shop assistant stopped smiling when she saw what Kimberly was wearing.

"Is it for this lady?"

"Yes!" Sam nodded his head. Then, he said seriously, "Make sure you pick a good one for her. There is no room for mistakes."

"Sure. Miss, please come with me."

The shop assistant took Kimberly inside.

After a while, Kimberly changed into a black and white dress. The shop assistant ushered Kimberly to show her dress to Maddox.

Maddox said coldly, "Next!"

Kimberly was slightly unhappy. She turned around and changed into another dress.

Kimberly was wearing a pure black dress now. However, Maddox was still frowning.

Kimberly clenched into fists and turned around.

Maddox was still not satisfied after Kimberly had tried on a few dresses. The cold aura that he was exuding seemed to make the atmosphere even tenser.

When Kimberly stood before him once again, Maddox slammed the magazine on the table.

Kimberly was shocked. She bit her lower lips and said,

"Why don't we... stop trying? I..."

She was embarrassed at Maddox's condescending gaze. She knew she could not carry these dresses well.

She was not made for these expensive dresses. She looked like a joke in them.

Unexpectedly, Maddox said, "Please don't let her try on these old-fashioned dresses. She is 30 years old, not 50 years old."

Maddox looked at the shop assistant coldly.

The shop assistant instantly felt the immense pressure on her. Her face turned pale. She nodded her head and said, "Got it."

She knew that Maddox was warning her. She knew she would be fired if she failed to choose the most suitable dress for Kimberly. His capability to do just that was well attested by his unfathomable gaze and his domineering demeanor.

The shop assistant immediately gathered the best dresses that were available in the shop and brought them to the fitting room with Kimberly.

"This dress is very expensive. Let me help you to change into this dress."

"You don't have to do that. I can do it myself."

She was not used to someone watching her take off her clothes.

Upon hearing this, the shop assistant complained, "What's wrong with you? It's an expensive dress. Why don't you let me help you? Can you afford it if you accidentally tear the dress?"

"Look at what you've been wearing before this. Your clothes are from the market. How dare you come here to try on our clothes? Are you showing off just because someone is here to support you?" After letting Kimberly try on the dresses for a few times, the shop assistant knew that Kimberly was a pushover. She did not dare to offend Maddox. Therefore, she bullied Kimberly. Kimberly did not say anything. She was a little embarrassed because what the shop assistant said was true.

"Alright, suit yourself. You can try it on yourself. Otherwise, I'll be in trouble if you make a complaint about me." The shop assistant threw the dress to her. Then, she slammed the door and left.

Kimberly took the dress and stood there in a daze. She put it on after a while.

The dress was indeed very expensive. It was different from the old-fashioned dresses which she had tried on earlier.

After changing into the dress, Kimberly lifted the hem of the dress and walked out. However, Maddox was nowhere to be seen.

Her heart skipped a beat. Where did he go?

She was looking around for Maddox. All of a sudden, she heard a familiar voice.

"Honey, how about this dress?"

"There's no need to ask. Baby, you look beautiful no matter what you wear."

Kimberly stopped in her path. Before she could even react, her body instinctively moved the side where a huge clothes rack was blocking her body. From her angle, she could see clearly who the people were.

They were Jonathan Lowell and his pregnant mistress.
