Chapter 20


    Chapter 20


    The project in Yrare had been under Neville’s management for nearly half a year. With construction


    about tomence, the fund of 600 million dors for the project vanished.


    Although the Preston family was rich enough to handle this, this amount of money wasn’t negligible.


    Neville had to trace the whereabouts of the missing funds.


    That evening. Neville instructed Bernard to pack his baggage for an immediate departure.


    Bernard asked, “Mr. Preston, should we still keep an eye on Miss Guzman!”


    Neville’s handsome face turned icy. “If she wants to act recklessly, let her be.”


    During this period, she repeatedly challenged his boundaries, making him lose patience.


    “Perhaps Miss Guzman is just testing how important she is to you,” Bernard said.


    Neville sneered. “She miscalcted. I would never care about her.”


    When they had entered into their marriage, he had been explicit about his expectations. He made it


    clear that she was to y the role of Mrs. Preston and not to entertain any illusions beyond that.


    However, despite his warnings, she couldn’t help but fall for him.


    Neville and Bernard boarded a ne back to Norton.


    When Madison woke up, Jeremy was no longer by her side, leaving only a note, which read, “Mommy,


    I’ve left with Ariel. Remember to have breakfast.”


    She turned her head and saw two sandwiches on the table, with a handsome self–portrait drawn in


    ketchup. Clearly, it was made by Jeremy


    Although only five years old, Jeremy could take care of himself quite well.


    Madison suddenly realized that he had quietly grown up into a young adult, mature and considerate


    From now on, she wouldn’t miss any moment of his growth.


    After breakfast, Madison informed Ross to go to the airport.


    Ross had partied at the barst night. He smelled of smoke and alcohol, with lipstick marks on his


    cor, looking like a carefree yboy.


    Madison scornfully said, “After getting off the ne, find a hotel to freshen up before meeting Hazel”


    Ross, indifferent, replied, “My dear Hazel doesn’t care about such things. No matter how I look, she


    likes me.”


    Madison sternly said, “Ross, Hazel is a good woman. Don’t let her down.”


    “Rest assured, even if I mistreat Hazel a hundred times, she still treats me well. That’s my charm, Ross


    said.


    “When some people give up, they won’te back. If she is disappointed, you might lose her,”


    Madison said.


    Rosszily nced at her and said, “Madison, I’m not as heartless as Neville, and Hazel isn’t as foolish


    as you

    Madison smiled. She was indeed naive. Knowing Neville didn’t love her, she still chose to love him


    unconditionally, turning these three years into a joke.


    Seeing her like this, Ross regretted poking at her pain. He patted her shoulder to console her. “It’s


    okay, Madison. After you leave Neville, I will take you to have fun. I promise you’ll enjoy every night.”


    Chapter 20


    Madison rolled her eyes at him


    After arriving at the airport, Madison felt as if someone was watching her from behind. When she


    turned around, she didn’t find anyone suspicious


    Watching Madison and Ross leave, Jeremy finally walked out of the cafe with Ariel.


    Ariel couldn’t help but ask, “Jeremy, if you’re so reluctant to leave Mommy, why not say goodbye in


    person?”


    Jeremy sniffled and said, Tm afraid Mommy will cry.


    Every separation from Madison was painful for him, but Jeremy didn’t want Madison to be sad, so he


    would just see her off silently.


    Ariel ruffled Jeremy’s little head and said, “You’re so considerate.”


    Jeremy looked at the departing ne and silently vowed that he would stay with Ariel on Warcana


    Ind as he promised and waited for Madison to visit him.


    Even if she was busy, he could actively find her.


    No one was allowed to separate him from Madison from now on.


    “Ariel, let’s go.”


    When Madison’s nended, she sent a message to Neville. [Meet you at the city hall in half an


    hour.)


    At this moment, Neville was in a meeting at thepany. Last night, he had traced the hacker who


    stole the 600 million dors to Croginia


    600 million dors was a significant amount, and the police promptly filed a case, coordinating with the


    police in Croginia for the arrest operation


    The project in Yrare couldn’t afford any dys. Neville initiated thepany’s emergency funds to


    ensure the project’s smooth progress.


    When he saw the message, coldness covered his handsome face.


    For a moment, he couldn’t figure out Madison’s intentions. Was she joking with him, or was it about


    Ross? he wondered.


    “Bernard, prepare the car,” Neville ordered.


    Regardless, he had to go to the city hall to see what tricks she was ying


    When Madison stepped off the ne, she headed straight to the city hall. Seeing newlyweds, she felt a


    bit lost.


    She had once envisioned a love story with Neville, even though she knew he had someone else in his


    heart. She held onto a glimmer of hope, thinking that if she loved him wholeheartedly, he would


    eventually love her back.


    Even if he deceived her, she would be happy, but Neville never cared about Madison from beginning to


    end.


    Ross said she was burying her head in her own fantasies, unaware that she couldn’t change Neville’s


    mind.


    She couldn’t warm Neville’s heart, and she couldn’t save herself.


    But now, she had woken up from her dream and decided to start a new life.


    When Neville arrived at the city hall, it was already eleven o’clock. He immediately spotted the woman


    in a light green dress standing under the shade, looking charming and gentle.


    She walked over when she saw him and said, “I thought you would change your mind.”


    Chapter 20


    Neville looked down at her and said. “Madison, you think highly of yourself. I’ve always kept my word.


    Make sure you’ve thought it through.”


    Madison smiled. “I n to turn over a new leaf. I don’t want to stick to a man like you”


    Neville squinted. He found that Madison had changed a lot and became articte and sharp.


    They went into the hall silently.


    Things went smoothly during the paperwork, and within half an hour, both of them had divorce papers


    in hand.


    As they left the hall, Madison, still unwilling, mocked, “Congrattions, Mr. Preston, on bing single


    again. You can marry Miss Conner.”


    Neville coldly scoffed. “Madison, don’te begging me.”


    Madison said. “Rest assured, even if I starve on the streets, I won’te begging to you. But based on


    our three years of marriage, I’ll give you some advice.”


    “Oh


    “Don’t miss my kindness and thoughtfulness, and don’t beg me toe back to you, Madison said.


    Neville looked at her with a half–smile. “I won’t, never.”


    Madison showed a relieved expression. “Then I can rest easy


    She walked a few steps and suddenly turned back, saying. The past three years are like a joke to me.”


    Neville sat in the car with a gloomy face, and his aura was cold and strong.


    Bernard held his breath and timidly asked. “Mr. Preston, shall we head back to the office?”


    Neville asked him, “Does she think I’lle back to her?”


    Bernard felt that Neville was in a bad mood. Choosing his words carefully, Bernard said, “Women like


    to throw tantrums. She mighte back to you in a few days”


    “Once she left, don’t think abouting back!”
