“Since you said so, I’ll accept it so that you can go back and report to Mr. Palmer. However…”

Madison suddenly stopped spinning the pen. She looked up at Morris and smiled. “Since you’ve given me the shares, I hope Mr. Palmer won’t interfere.”

Morris nodded. “Of course.”

He handed the contract back to Madison.

She didn’t refuse anymore and quickly signed the paper.

Madison put away her pen and said politely, “Mr. Walton, you’ve worked hard, please stay for a meal.”

Morris quickly declined and put away the contract. He stood up and said, “No need, Miss Madison. Mr. Palmer has other things to do. I’m afraid I don’t have time to delay here. Besides, it’s not time to eat. It’s not good to stay any longer.”

The delicious food at Rose Garden was tempting, but Morris did not achieve his position in the Palmer Group through crooked tricks. Doing everything well was the most basic professional quality.

Madison stood up as well. She raised her hand and glanced at her watch, realizing that it was indeed not mealtime. It wouldn’t be appropriate to linger any longer.

Hence, she smiled and said, “Then I won’t keep you and make things difficult for you. Anyway, I made some small pastries in the Rose Garden’s kitchen during my free time. Take them with you and enjoy them as a token of appreciation for your efforts in making these trips.”

Morris repeatedly declined, but before he could say anything, Madison interrupted him.

“It’s already packed. If I don’t give it to you, I’ll give it to someone else. Moreover, I only made it for practice and haven’t officially introduced it as menu items. Take them with you and give me some feedback when you try them. Of course, I hope Mr. Walton won’t mind.”

At this point, Morris couldn’t refuse anymore.

He smiled in embarrassment. Thank you, Miss Madison.”

“You’re welcome.”

Chapter 127

Madison took out a lot of pastries and sent Morris to the door. She even interrupted. him before he could speak.

“I made a little too much. If you can’t finish it, you can share it with your colleagues and- friends. If you have any feedback, please send it to me via WhatsApp. Thank you.”

She put the pastries into the car and clasped her hands together to thank him.

She didn’t look like she wanted to give Morris snacks. Instead, she looked like she was asking for help.

In fact, Madison did mean it.

These past

few days, in order to study Benton’s taste preferences, Madison had been spending all her time in the kitchen. Feeling a bit tired, she took a brief break and decided to make some other delicacies for relaxation. These pastries were her pastime

creations.

If she cooked too much, no matter how delicious they were, the fellow chefs could not handle it, not to mention the food she cooked was even more delicious.

As a result, there were plenty of these pastries left.

Even if she gave a box to customers every day, it would still be challenging to manage. If she gave too much, it would lower the customer’s satisfaction in the future.

It just so happened that Morris was here today. It was just nice to let someone take them.

away.

Not wasting food and having someone be able to enjoy it was truly perfect.

However, it was obvious that Morris did not know this reason. He only thought that Madison was beautiful and kind. She worked at the Rose Garden and still remembered him as the messenger.

At the same time, he felt sorry for Leo. Miss Madison was so kind, but why did he have to marry that terrible-tempered Sally? Was it because she was a big star?

Morcover, Miss Madison was clearly prettier.

However, no matter how pitiful Morris was, he couldn’t change the fact that his boss had found a new partner.

While driving, Morris received another message from Sally.

The long voice message that flooded the screen made his head hurt even more. However, he could not reject it and could only open it silently.

Chapter 127

On Rose Garden’s side, after sending Morris away, Madison explained to his brothers. ab o Leo’s additional assets in the divorce settlement.

She was not idle either. She calculated these assets together.

Coupled with what was written in the divorce agreement, Leo could be said to be extremely generous. Although it was not as exaggerated as half of his assets, it was still not a small number.

He just didn’t know what the Hale family people would think if they knew about this.

However, this was not something Madison had to consider. Since they had already shed all pretense of cordiality, there was no need to continue pretending to be polite.

Comparatively, she was more troubled about how to manage these assets.

She hadn’t inherited the business skills from the Daves family, so she was too lazy to do it.

Joe brought up these matters during lunch at the Rose Garden. When he saw her pitifully asking him to help her manage her finances, he could not help but laugh.

“Did you accept all that junk Leo gave you?”

“What junk? A house in Green Water Bay alone is already very valuable. Unlike you, who can only rent me a house,” Madison snorted.

Joe raised his eyes and looked at her from the corner of his eyes. His expression was self-evident.

Madison immediately put on a fawning smile. “Okay, my brother, I was wrong. Please help me figure out how to handle these things. Just seeing all those complex financial terms gives me a headache.”

Joe snorted. “Now you know how to call me brother. Weren’t you quite stubborn just

now?”

Although he said that, he had already picked up the tablet to help Madison read the information.

After a moment, the man let out a low laugh. “He gave you quite a lot, but you still have. the face to take it?”

in

Madison’s eyes widened. “Why would I be embarrassed to take it? Claiming property a divorce is my legal right. I’m not some character from your company’s script, a pitiful or high-and-mighty female lead who must leave with nothing. Since he’s willing to give it to me, I’ll take it well. I’m not a fool.”

Chapter 127

Just as Morris had advised her, she had suffered a lot over the years.

Putting aside the past, even three years of marriage had been tough enough for her, to the point where she almost lost her life. Why should she be embarrassed to accept it?

Moreover, she didn’t force Leo to marry her; it was his own decision.

Joe replied perfunctorily, “My little princess is indeed smart.”

Madison’s hand trembled, and she almost splashed a glass of water on Joe’s face.

Fortunately. Joe was not always so indecent. After taking a few glances, he had a plan in mind.

However, he first respected Madison’s opinion and asked, “Madison, how do you want to deal with this?”

Madison frowned and thought for a moment. “I’ll just sell all the houses. Anyway, I won’t be staying in Sidovor City in the future anyway, and I have you over here. As for the 3% of GN’s shares, I don’t really want them. Why don’t we set up a charity fund to help Sidovor City find the lost children? What do you think, Joc?”

Dealing with these rigid assets was manageable for Madison, but what truly troubled her was managing the liquid assets.

She had never learned how to manage a company before, so she could only let Joe take a look.

Joe naturally had no objections to her words. “Alright, you can do whatever you want.”

He lowered his head and added.

“I’ve taken a look. The assets Leo gave you are quite complex. When everything is divided, we can ask our big brother’s company to help you settle it. My company mostly focuses on the entertainment industry. I’m afraid it’s not as professional as his. What do you think?”

“Sure, that would be great. Thanks, Joc!” Madison said, pleased to pass the responsibility.

Joe knew her temper and was too lazy to tease her.

He suddenly thought of something and looked up to ask, “By the way, are you going to sell the Creek Court and Green Water Bay houses?”
