Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 121

Kimberly pushed Maddox away. His long figure lay down beside her, and he whispered, "Are you a dog? You like to bite me every time."

Kimberly realized that it was Maddox's voice.

At this moment, she was wide awake. When she realized what Maddox had done to her, her heart raced in her chest. She bit her lower lip lightly and asked,

"Why did you come here? Don't you have your own bed?" After saying that, Kimberly touched the cold floor and confirmed that she was still on the floor. She was even more surprised.

Maddox sneered and asked, "You took my quilt away. What should I use?"

Kimberly asked back,"... But you don't have to come here and sleep on the floor with me, do you?"

Maddox replied, "I will sleep wherever the quilt is."

Kimberly asked again, "Then, what were you doing just now?"

Even if he was here for the quilt, what was he doing earlier?

"Doing what husbands and wives do," Maddox answered simply.

Kimberly was speechless.

What husbands and wives do?

While she was thinking, Maddox's hands touched her waist and his tall body leaned over her. His warm breath lingered around her face.

Kimberly became nervous. She held his unruly hands and shouted, "What are you doing? Go back to your own bed!"

"Have you heard of a couple who sleep in separate beds?" Maddox ignored her words and easily broke free from her grip. He then lifted her clothes and reached his hand underneath them.

"... Weren't we fine on separate beds? Why do you suddenly want to change?"

As soon as Kimberly finished speaking, his hands stopped at her waist. She felt the atmosphere turn cold. "Change suddenly?" He echoed.

Kimberly nodded.

Maddox's voice became colder as he asked, "Does that mean you don't want to change?"

Kimberly didn't know how to answer him. She wanted to tell him something, but she couldn't say it out. She could only remain silent.

In the dark, she heard Maddox's heavy breathing. He sounded angry.

"So, you don't want to share a bed with me? Do you feel its bad to sleep with me?" Maddox questioned in a clipped tone.

Kimberly answered, "I didn't..."

"You're just a woman who got married again. What do you need to feel bad for?"

Before she could finish her words, Maddox criticized her again. Kimberly closed her eyes helplessly.

Well, he was far more irritable than she had expected.

Maddox withdrew his hand from her waist and didn't mess around with her anymore. Kimberly felt a little empty. She couldn't see his figure in the dark, so she could only turn over silently. She then wanted to take the quilt for herself wholly.

But when she knew that Maddox was sleeping with her, she only covered herself with a corner of the quilt and gave the rest to him.

However, she couldn't fall asleep.

The breathing behind her rose and fell, matching her every breath. It did not calm down for the entire night.

Although they were in the same bed, they had different dreams.

They stayed there until dawn. When Kimberly woke up and saw him lying beside her, she asked in a murmur, "Are you up? Do you want me to help you?"

Just then, she suddenly realized something.

How did Maddox come to her bed last night? He obviously couldn't walk. Did Sam help him after she fell asleep?

Nonetheless, Kimberly didn't have time to investigate it. She first had to figure out how to get Maddox into his wheelchair. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Hearing her voice, Maddox opened his eyes abruptly and stared sharply at her.

"No need," he answered. Kimberly asked, "...Then how do you plan on getting up?"

"None of your business," he replied.

Kimberly then said, "Okay, then I'll go wash up first."

After that, Kimberly ignored him. She got up and went straight to the bathroom.

Hearing her brush her teeth in the bathroom, Maddox sneered as he lay on the ground.

This woman really had no conscience!

When Kimberly finished getting ready, she came out and saw Maddox sitting up with his arms crossed. He looked at her coldly and ordered, "Come and help me."

After a pause, Kimberly walked towards him.

She pushed the wheelchair to Maddox and asked, "Shall I help you up?"

Then, she crouched down, put his hand on her shoulder, and helped him get on his feet.

Maddox did not refuse. He got up slowly. Out of nowhere, he blurted out a question, "Do you despise me?"

"Hmm?" Kimberly responded absentmindedly, she didn't register what he was talking about.

"Because I'm disabled?" He asked again.

Kimberly was stunned. It was not easy to help him up, and now that she was caught by surprise, her hands gave way. Then, they both fell back onto the quilt.

"Sorry..." Kimberly's face turned pale, and she quickly helped him up again. "Are you hurt?"

Maddox fixed his gaze on her coldly, saying, "Answer my question."

"Ah?" Kimberly came to her senses and recalled his question. He had asked her if she despised him for being disabled.

"Why would I feel that way?" Kimberly smiled awkwardly.

Maddox clasped her hand tightly. His tall body leaned forward slightly, and his breath engulfed her. "Because I'm a cripple who can't even stand up. Hence, you despise me and don't want to share a bed with me like a married couple."

Kimberly didn't know how to respond.

Her eyes were wide opened and she looked at Maddox at a loss.

What was wrong with him? Why was he behaving so strangely these few days?

He even asked her if she despised him.

In the state that she was in, she was in no position to despise others.

"No!" Kimberly shook her head in denied, "I won't despise you."

"Is that so?" Maddox stared at her curiously like he was suspecting her of lying. Kimberly took a deep breath and tossed her head back, "Don't be like this. I'll help you up first."

It took her a lot of effort to help Maddox into his wheelchair. She was exhausted. Her face turned pink and she was left panting. Kimberly straightened her back and finally looked straight at Maddox.

"Maddox," she called.

The man looked at her.

"Honestly, you don't need to look down upon yourself. Even if you are sitting in a wheelchair, so what? You are still you. No one can change who you are. You are unique, there's nobody else like you in the world. Do you understand?"

As she spoke, her eyes were clear and she looked at him sincerely.

She obviously had said these words with seriousness after giving them a lot of thought. It was devoid of flattery or malice.

Maddox pondered about it for a moment.

It was like seeing a warm sun in the depths of winter.

Maddox moved his thin lips slightly to say something, but she continued, "No matter what, there will always be someone who dislikes us. I think you are amazing, so... don't belittle yourself."
