My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise

The speed of the car suddenly increased, and Leo's voice seemed to be distorted by the noisy wind outside. "Why? Are you in a hurry?"

'What did he mean by saying I am in a hurry?' Madison thought. 'It's not like I am about to get into another relationship. I'm not the one who has someone waiting for me.'

She shook her head, looking serious. "It should be you who's in a hurry."

Leo's lips lifted slightly, and the car speed gradually stabilized. "I'm not in a hurry."

Madison went silent. She did not talk anymore.

In any case, she had already signed the divorce papers. Tonight, she would settle things with the Hale family. After that, she would have no more connections with these people.

Half an hour later, the car stopped outside the Hale family's villa.

In recent years, the Hale and Palmer families cooperated in business. The Hale family's status in high society gradually became more prominent. Many people fawned over and flattered them. By this moment, the luxury cars of the visiting guests had almost occupied all available parking spaces.

She got out of the car. A gust of night wind almost made her shiver. When she looked up, Leo, who was dressed in a suit, was already walking toward the lawn where the party was set up at the villa. Madison had no choice but to follow quickly, holding up the skirt of her dress.

All the guests present cast their eyes in their direction because of Leo.

Roses surrounded the beautiful woman playing the piano. Gifts piled up high next to the five-layer cake. Under the lights and everyone's gaze, Leo approached the woman who was playing the music.

It was like a scene from a romantic film that delighted people's hearts.

Approaching them now would seem very indiscreet. Thus, Madison, who was following Leo, slowed down her steps and attempted to blend into the crowd of onlookers.

But before she could disappear into the crowd, Leo suddenly stopped walking and turned to look at her.

It was as if the film had been put on pause at the most exciting part, and a commercial suddenly appeared.

However, Leo didn't think there was anything wrong. He looked at Madison, who was standing in front of the crowd. His eyebrows furrowed. "Come here."

"Who is she? She looks familiar, but I feel like I've never seen her."

"Now that you mention it, she's the one sent abroad by Mr. Palmer on the day of the wedding? How dare she show her face back here? If I were her, I would have jumped off a building already. I would have been too embarrassed to live. How unfortunate that we see her here!"

The voices were not loud, but Madison, who was close, heard them clear as crystal.

Sally, who was playing the piano, already stood up when Leo spoke. She walked gracefully toward Madison. "Madison, when did you return to the country? Why didn't you tell us?"

'Returning to the country without informing her adoptive parents. How impolite and uncultivated!' In everyone's minds, Madison's image went down another notch.

Madison smiled. "I returned last night and had a call with Ramona this morning. Maybe she was afraid you wouldn't be happy, so she didn't tell you."

After Sally came back, Madison changed her address to her adoptive parents. Instead of calling them Mom and Dad as she used to, she now referred to them by their names.

"Why would I be unhappy? With you back, I have a companion and won't get nagged by my mom every day," Sally said sweetly to her.

Her behavior made Madison feel disgusted. Restraining her expression, Madison took a small gift box from her handbag. "Happy birthday," she said.

"You even prepared a gift for me. Thank you, Madison!" Sally took it, joyfully hugging Madison.
