Chapter 192
In the middle of the night, Abigail followed Sam along the corridor. She complained, "Why would you call me at this hour? Do you think that I'm always available for you?"
Sam explained himself with a bitter expression on his face, "Auntie Stark, I didn't mean to disturb you. It was Young Master Yardley's order, I had no choice."
Abigail glanced at him and asked, "What did he do this time?"
"Miss Shell was drugged, so..."
"Drugged?" Abigail's eyes widened as she asked, "What do you mean by drugged? Is it the type I'm thinking of?"
Sam nodded with a wry smile.
Abigail's eyes widened further and she exclaimed, "What's going on? Can't Maddox protect her well?"
Sam replied, "Auntie, save these for later. Come with me now. It's a matter of life-and-death."
"Pfft," Abigail laughed it off. "There's no need for me to help her. He can help her by himself, right?"
Sam stopped outside the hotel room and unlocked the door with the room key. Then, he opened the door and entered while announcing, "Young Master Yardley, she is here."
Then, the two of them were stunned at what they Kimberly was clinging onto Maddox with her arms and legs. She was wearing a white shirt and her hair was disheveled. Meanwhile, Maddox was sweating as he kept trying to push her away.
It didn't look like a particularly passionate scene. Instead, it was a funny mess.
When Maddox saw the both of them standing there, he inexplicably felt angry for no reason. "Care to help?"
Sam came to his senses and he hurried over to help Maddox.
Abigail couldn't hold in her laughter when she saw them.
"I might be your aunt, but I have never seen you in such a mess. Since when did you become so gentle? You are... different."
Abigail strode confidently towards Maddox as she spoke.
Sam went over to help pull Kimberly away from Maddox, but he didn't dare to touch her. He was afraid he would touch somewhere he wasn't supposed to. Although Sam was here to help him, he didn't know how.
He ushered, "Auntie Stark, what should we do? You are the doctor. Please do something."
Abigail folded her arms as she watched them quietly.
"Auntie," Maddox called out to her politely. He had no choice at the moment. Hearing this, Abigail's mouth was agape. The great Maddox had always hated addressing her politely. Now, he was begging for her help! All for this woman!
Why?
He was a man. If the girl was drugged, wouldn't he...
Abigail quickly took out the inhalation medications that she had brought along and put them on Kimberly's nose. At the same time, she tried to hold Kimberly down.
She was soft and gentle, yet she managed to hold Kimberly in place. Slowly, Kimberly calmed down, shutting her eyes and lost consciousness.
Her whole body relaxed and slumped onto the bed.
Maddox reached out and held her in his arms, the look in his eyes was complex.
"Is that all?" he asked.
Abigail sat down on the edge of the bed as she replied, "Of course, not. Let her lay properly on the bed. You can continue minding your own business and leave the rest to me."
Sam stepped forward hurriedly and helped Maddox into his wheelchair. After all, Maddox was half- naked and he looked terrible. Since Abigail was Maddox's aunt, he could leave Kimberly to her with a peace of mind.
After they had left, Abigail looked at Kimberly, who was in a deep sleep. She shook her head and sighed.
In the other room, curiosity got the better of Sam. As he helped Maddox into his clothes, he couldn't help asking, "Young Master Yardley, why didn't you... give her the... " He didn't dare to say the last word. He was concerned for his life.
As expected, Maddox glared at him before he could even finish speaking. If looks could kill...
"You talk too much," said Maddox.
Sam gulped. "No, I didn't mean to offend you. I was just asking. I don't know if Auntie Stark could..."
"Shut up." Maddox was getting impatient. His body was boiling, and blood was still pumping into his lower half. Although Kimberly was his wife, he had to control his actions. He had to take care of her.
The longer he thought about it, the angrier he got.
Suddenly, Maddox said coldly, "Get out."
Sam nodded obediently. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
After Sam went out of the room, Maddox lit a cigarette and pushed himself to the window. Looking at the twinkling city lights, he took a huge puff of his cigarette.
Amongst the mist, Maddox's features became dreamy, and the light in his eyes flickered.
After a moment, he heard someone knocking on the door.
"Young Master Yardley."
Maddox did not know how many cigarettes he had smoked. When he heard Sam's voice, he quickly extinguished the flame on his cigarette and pushed himself out of the room.
"Miss Shell is awake," Sam said. The look in Maddox's eyes cooled as he replied, "Okay."
When Maddox reached Kimberly's room, Abigail was talking to Kimberly, "Have a good rest tonight. You will be fine when you get up tomorrow."
When Kimberly had come back to her senses, she remembered what had happened earlier. She was still a little worried. "Will I really be fine?"
Abigail knew what she was worried about. She stroked Kimberly's eyebrows gently, just like a worried parent would.
"Silly girl, I am a doctor. Of course, I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, the child is fine."
Abigail finally mentioned Kimberly's child. When Kimberly knew that the child wasn't affected, she finally relaxed and said, "Thank you."
Abigail chuckled, "You are Maddox's wife and I am his aunt. Just call me Auntie."
Kimberly was stunned. If she called her that, wouldn't it mean that...
"Auntie."
As they were chatting, they suddenly heard Maddox's voice. Kimberly looked at the direction of the voice and saw Maddox coming towards them.
She was now more awake than before. When she saw Maddox, she suddenly remembered what she did. She blushed when she noticed the red marks she had left on Maddox's neck.
She was clinging onto Maddox and kissing him all over his body. She had even begged him to go all the way. As she thought about it, Kimberly felt like it would be better if she was still unconscious. Or she could pretend she wasn't aware of what had happened.
However, she couldn't hide her emotions. Her face flushed red as soon as Maddox entered the room. Everyone knew what she was thinking.
However, Maddox glanced at her emotionlessly.
Abigail chided, "Maddox, this is on you. You can argue that the last time was an accident, but what do you have to say now? Kimberly is your wife. Is this how you treat your wife? You..."
Maddox didn't say anything. He stood in place and let Abigail lecture him.
In the end, Kimberly couldn't listen on any longer. She whispered, "Um... Auntie..."
