Chapter 74

Madison did not dodge and allow Cullen to come closer.

Cullen did not go overboard. He stopped at a safe distance and did not stick to Madison as some men and women around him did.

Cullen changed how he usually acted and got all serious. Now, he looked as tough as

Leo.

However, he controlled himself a bit before Madison.

Madison was not in a hurry to answer Cullen’s question. She picked a glass from the row of coc ktails before her. It smelled like fruit juice, so she took a small sip.

She murmured inside, ‘It’s sweet.

Then, she took a big gulp and smiled at Cullen.

“You can’t defeat me,” said Madison.

Cullen recalled that Madison threw him over her shoulder on the dance floor before people, feeling frustrated. He sensed the mood was ruined and sat up straight.

Cullen argued, “That’s because I gave in to you. Furthermore, that was a sneak attack. It doesn’t count.

Madison asked, “Well. If so, Cullen, how about another battle with me?”

Cullen took a step back, and in response, Madison advanced, leaving him bewildered.

Cullen thought, ‘Isn’t it a bit too fast? Although I am interested in Jessica, she hasn’t received her divorce certificate yet.

Madison smiled even more brightly when she saw Cullen’s reaction, saying, “Don’t worry. Cullen, I’m not interested in you for the time being.”

Next, she straightened up, grabbed a glass of pink coc ktail, and downed it in one gulp.

After that, she took an orange one. Probably because it didn’t taste good, she only took a sip and put it down.

Then, she went to get a new one.

As Cullen observed Madison consuming a significant amount of alcohol, a sense of concern washed over him. Thus, he said, “Enough drinking.”

Cullen thought, ‘How can Madison drink like that? It’s her first time drinking, and she is

so indulgent, drinking one glass after another. Those are coc ktails with many types of alcohol inside. She is trying to kill herself.

Madison was already slightly tipsy, murmuring, “Why did you stop me? It’s quite tasty.

It’s sweet…”

Cullen was faintly enraged and said, “Is it worth fuddling for Leo? For a man who is blind to see your virtues? Madison, think about it. I know you are sad, but you can’t keep doing this!”

Cullen cried inside, ‘I would rather see Madison throw me over her shoulder on the dance floor and embarrass Leo. I hate to see her become a heartbroken woman drowning her sorrows in alcohol!”

However, as soon as Cullen finished his words, Madison asked, “Who told you that I was sad?”

Her gaze turned icy. Were it not for her slurred speech, it would be challenging to discern that she was already inebriated.

Madison cried, “I’m happy! Can you see it?

“That blind man isn’t worth my tears. He’s just like you guys. He looks down on me because I’m an orphan. I shouldn’t have married him!

“I’m not from a decent family background. Leo treated me brutally and even hired some people overseas to kidnap me for the woman he liked. Those criminals almost. forced me to have S** with them and threatened me that they would throw me into the sea to feed the fish. Leo viewed me as his wife when we were young. Ironically, I was the only one who took it seriously. He even tried to kill me. So, why would I feel sad for him?

“But so what? I have a family, and my family is as wealthy as yours! Even if I don’t get married for the rest of my life, my brothers will still love me. I don’t lack love!”

As she spoke, she suddenly burst into tears. She cried and laughed.

However, Cullen heard shocking news from Madison’s words.

He cried inside, ‘Leo hired some criminals overseas to kill her?’

Seeing that Madison was crying and wanted to get more wine, Cullen did not have time for his questions. Instead, he quickly stopped Madison and said, “Jessica, you’ve had enough. You’re already drunk!”

“I’m not drunk.” Madison wiped her tears. Her trembling voice exposed her vulnerability. “I’m not drunk. I’m serious. I want to drink.”

“Jessica, you can’t drink anymore!” Cullen had a headache at the thought of sending a drunkard back later.

He asked the bartender for a glass of milk and secretly sighed inside, Joe’s previous approach was smart!’

Suddenly, Madison quieted down and sat before the bar counter. She no longer asked for drinks.

She looked at Cullen seriously and promised, “I won’t drink anymore. Cullen, don’t be angry.”

Cullen was stunned. Looking at Madison’s adorable appearance, Cullen suddenly wanted to record a video and send it to Leo.

He thought, “Leo has to see how dam n cute his little wife is.

However, when he thought about Leo, Cullen recalled what Madison had said when she was drunk. His gaze suddenly darkened.

Cullen talked to himself, ‘Kidnapping Jessica and threatening her? How could Leo do such a thing?

‘However, Madison said the truth out when the wine was in. She didn’t seem like she was lying.

“There must be some misunderstanding.

Cullen returned to his senses and wanted to ask Madison what had happened to her overseas. The moment he turned around, he saw a pretty face.

Madison widened her eyes and approached Cullen with a serious expression, murmuring, “Wait. Something’s wrong. Which brother of mine are you? I don’t remember having a brother who looks like y

you.

Cullen felt a pang of disappointment at Madison’s words, and his heartbeat gradually returned to its normal rhythm.

Madison kept mumbling, “But you call me Jessica. Only my family members call me Jessica. Why do you call me Jessica?”

Cullen made up an answer. “Because you were cute when you were a little kid!”

With the interruption, he had forgotten what he wanted to ask,

Madison snorted softly and said, “Well. Cute is for little girls. I’m stunning now!”

Cullen nodded perfunctorily and agreed, “Yeah. You’re stunning now!”

Madison held her chin with her hands and said, “Yeah. But Leo doesn’t like me

e even if I’m pretty. He hates me and wants me to disappear from this world. It doesn’t matter. Everything will end after the divorce. I won’t disturb him. When I leave Sidovor City, I’ll forget all of you. No one will hurt me anymore.”

She cupped her face and grinned. Not a trace of intoxication showed on her

countenance.

Cullen’s heart ski pped a beat when he saw that. He gulped and said, “Jessica, what happened when you’re overseas…”

“Shh.” Madison raised a finger to shush Cullen before he could finish his words.

Madison’s gaze suddenly turned cold, although her eyes were still red.

She whispered, “Someone’s watching us.”

When Cullen was about to complain that Madison had drunk too much, he caught a glimpse of a man, and his expression suddenly darkened.

Cullen commented inside, “That person hides himself in the crowd. I won’t discover him if I don’t have any counterreconnaissance skills.

‘People like us all received training since we were kids. Their goal was to prevent ourselves from being kidnapped.

‘I haven’t taken that matter to heart in the past two years.

Cullen was kidnapped when he was a child. Therefore, he was much sharper. With Madison’s reminder, Cullen discovered a man was watching them from the shadows.

To be more specific, the man was staring at Madison.

However, Madison seemed not to notice it. She patted Cullen’s shoulder and comforted him. “It’s fine, dude. I might not be able to defeat that guy, but I’m good at escaping after the training. We can escape!”

Madison was so confident that Cullen almost laughed out of anger.

Madison’s words convinced Cullen that Madison must have encountered something

overseas.

As Cullen pondered over it, his expression grew notably more solemn.

Cullen took out his phone and sent a message to Leo with a dark expression.

However, when Cullen saw the missed calls and messages, his eyes suddenly widened.

After a while, he cursed, “Dam n it! Leo is a sc um bag!”

Madison nodded and agreed, “Yeah. He is a scu mbag.”

Immediately after their conversation, a chilly sneer unexpectedly arose from behind

them. “If I’m a sc umbag, then what are you?”
