Chapter 44
My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise
Chapter 44
The clothes on her shoulder fell to the ground, and the two of them fell into a confrontation.
Madison really did not understand where his hostility toward Joe and the rest came from.
It was ridiculous to say that it was because he had misunderstood her relationship with Joc.
Putting aside the fact that she and Joe were family, even if they were really a couple as he had misunderstood, so what? They were going to get a divorce.
She would always meet new men in the future.
If it werenât Joe, someone else would be suitable for her. Could it be that she couldnât date and get married in the future?
Moreover, who she was with had nothing to do with Leo..
If it was not a misunderstanding, Madison would be even more confused.
Joeâs business was in Sidovor City, and it had no interaction with Leo at all. As for the Daves familyâs other businesses, although they were competing with the Palmer family, one was in Sidovor City and the other was in Rozalia. They had always minded their own business. Where did Leoâs hostility come from?
Other than saying that he was crazy, she couldnât think of any other explanation. The stalemate was broken by Madison.
She bent down and picked up Joeâs suit. Then she patted it and tidied it putting it on her arm.
up
before
âAlright, as you said, Iâve lost contact with the Daves family. You can finish the divorce procedures with me tomorrow morning.â
Leo pursed his thin l*ps and glanced at the suit on her arm.
He looked up again and his tone was cold.
âFinish the divorce procedures, and then what? Youâll play me like a fool again and continue to attend various events with the Daves family people, right?â
Madison smiled helplessly and tilted her head at him.
âThatâs right. You can already imagine that I will be friends with them again after we get
Chapter 44
a divorce. Why do you have to make such an unreasonable request?â
It would be ridiculous not to contact her family again.
Leo looked away and turned around, ready to leave. âThen thereâs nothing to talk about. Rest early.â
âLeo, are you planning to never divorce me?â
Madison called out to him. Her tone was calm as she looked at his back.
âI donât care. I donât mind not getting married for the rest of my life. But what about! you? You have someone you like, and the person you like is waiting for you. Why do you have to hold on to me? Youâre even holding yourself back.â
âYouâre the one who delayed me first.â Leo didnât even turn around.
âYes, I was indeed the one who delayed you first. I-apologize for making you and Sally miss each other for three years for no reason.â
Madison was helpless. She could only try her best to make things clear.
âBut since itâs a mistake, why donât you stop it now?
âI donât understand why youâre hostile to the Daves family. As I said, Joe and I are partners. I havenât done anything to let you down while we are still husband and wife. I wonât embarrass you.
âIf you think that I went back to this country with the intention of divorcing you and that my concealment makes you uncomfortable, Iâll apologize to you again. Iâm sorry.â She bowed to him for a long moment before straightening up her back..
When Leo turned around again, the first thing he saw was her bending down and straightening up.
Therefore, she would rather make so many concessions in order to get a divorce.
She was so unyielding at the venue and refused to even take a step back on the passenger seat issue, but now she was willing to bend down.
Why?
Naturally, it was because she did not love him anymore, so she was anxious to get out of this marriage.
She no longer loved him.
Chapter 44
Humphâ¦
When she loved him, she had to marry him. When she didnât love him, she wanted to turn around and leave. How could it be so easy?
âAre you in a hurry to get a divorce?â
When he spoke again, his tone was not as angry as before, but he no longer had the gentleness of making hot lemon water for her.
Madison frowned. She did not quite understand his question.
She shook her head. âI told you I wasnât in a hurry. If you insist on delaying it, youâre holding yourself back, not me.â
Leo sneered. âSince youâre not in a hurry, why are you rushing me?â
âButâ¦â
âItâs none of your business between me and Sally!â
Before Madison could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Leo. It was as if it was a sin for her to speak.
She was shocked by his sudden anger. She pursed her l*ps and looked at him silently.
In the past, no matter how angry he was, he had never been like this.
Leo did not realize how scary he looked at this moment.
He looked at Madison indifferently and said in a mocking tone.
âAnyway, three years have been delayed. It doesnât matter if it takes a while. On the other hand, Mrs. Palmer, you have been thinking of divorcing me since you returned to the country. How can I divorce you without even letting you experience being Mrs. Palmer?
âYouâre not in a hurry, and neither am I. Letâs just delay each other like this for now.â
At this point, Madison understood everything.
He was clearly doing it on purpose!
If she was unhappy, he would be happy. If she wanted a divorce, he would delay it. How was he hostile to the Daves family? He was hostile to her, which was why he was unhappy with everyone around her!
Madison gritted her teeth and glared at Leo fiercely.

âUp to you! Itâs fine if you donât want to get a divorce. Do you think you can scare me?â
She sat down on the sofa angrily, unwilling to give Leo a kind face.
âHowever, Leo, you have to keep an eye on your next wife. Donât let her find trouble with me because you donât want a divorce. I still want to live well!â
Leo was stunned for a second. He wanted to retort that Sally would not do such a thing, but he remembered what happened in the Hale family last time and changed his words.
âShe was in the wrong last time, but it was also because of her illness that she did some immoral things. Her condition has improved, and it wonât happen again.â
Madison sneered and did not respond.
The illness was really a great excuse!
Three years ago, it was because Sally was sick, and three years later, it was again. A me ntal illness was really a omnipotent reason. Sally had broken the law, but Leo said that she just did an immoral thing.
How ridiculous.
From the time Sally returned to the diagnosis of emotional disorder, she had heard countless similar words.
âYouâre the older sister. You have to give in to your younger sister and be more sensible.â
âYouâre just the Hale familyâs adopted daughter. Sally is the Hale familyâs real daughter. The Hale family providing you food and raising you is already a huge gift. What else do you want?â
âSally is sick. Canât you be more understanding? Must you be so unreasonable?â
In the past, people from the Hale family said that. Now, Leo said the same thing. It was not a big deal.
Besides, he didnât say it out loud in the past, but his actions revealed his thoughts long ago, didnât they?
What was there to argue for?,
Leo probably also felt that this sentence was too much. He looked at her shoulder and was silent for a while.
After a while, he explained, âIâm not trying to absolve Sally. Itâs indeed her fault for hiring the murderer. I apologize to you on her behalf. As long as I can satisfy you, you can ask for any compensation you want

It would have been better if he hadnât said it, but Madison felt even more ironic when he said it.
âYouâre so nice to Sally.â
She turned sideways on the sofa and smiled at Leo.
Leo frowned.
Just as he was about to explain, Madison spoke again, âCan I really mention anything?â
Leo pondered for a moment. âUnder the conditions that I can satisfy at the moment.â
In other words, she could not bring up the divorce now.
Madison did not plan to bring up divorce again. After mentioning it many times, even she felt annoyed.
Whether he agreed to divorce or not, she didnât care.
She stood up from the sofa with the suit. âThen send me away. I donât want to stay here.â
