Regina immediately sent a message to Madison, Mount Blue Cafe at D tomorrow.
Upon seeing the message, Madison coldly curled her lips. It was amand with no room for
negotiation. She thought, “Regina is still wearing her arrogant expression, but I am no longer the doting
daughter-inw of the Preston family
Madison plied with two words, Not avable.] After sending the message, she blocked Regina. Dealing
with such people would only ruin the mood, and a good night’s sleep would be more worthwhile to her.
Regina, upon seeing the response, trembled with anger. As she was alsout to unleash a string of
insults on Madison, she realized she had been blocked. Frustrated, she mmed her phone on the
sofa. “This bitc h dares to defy me!”
Over the past three years, Madison had always been submissive in front of Regina. Suddenly,
Madison’s change in attitude made her ufortable. She recalled Daisy’s words that Neville did care
about Madison, pondering. Indeed, after being together for three years, there would inevitably be some
emotions attached. Madison, perhaps, relies on Neville’s remaining feelings for her, which makes her
change from the previous submissiveness to such arrogance towards me. Some people are inherently
vile; they shouldn’t be given any hope. Thinking about the Koenigsegg Neville bought for Madison,
Regina felt a pang at heart. She cursed in mind. “No matter what, I have to meet that bitc h. Even if I
can’t recover the money. I still need to give her a piece of my mind. After all, the funds are from the
Preston family. Why should she, a c u n n n g bit c h, unt it around like she owns the ce?
Daisy, due to injuries on her body, was in so much pain that she couldn’t even turn over. She moaned
almost all night, disrupting Regina’s peace.
On the other hand. Madison slept well through the night until dawn. As soon as she opened her eyes,
she saw a video call from her son, Jeremy. It had been a while since shest saw him, so she eagerly
answered the call.

Due to the time difference. Warcana Ind was tw i l n g with stars at the moment. Jeremy had just
finished showeringy in bed, preparing to sleep. His features almost perfectly replicated those of
Neville, like a miniature version of him. However, with his freshly blown-dried hair, he had a touch of
softness, much warmer than Neville’s icy demeanor.
“Mommy, I’vended a big deal, and the client happens to live in Norxton. Can you run an errand for
me tomorrow?” Jeremy asked.
Knowing her son well, Madison sensed something fishy. She raised an eyebrow and asked, “Is it that
simple?”
“Yeah, you think I’d trick you?” Jeremy replied, half-jokingly.
Madison teased, “Haven’t you tricked Mommy enough times?”
Looking aggrieved, Jeremy said, “So Mommy thinks I’m a trickster now? Don’t you like me anymore?”
Madison couldn’t bear to see her son like this and reassured him, “Mommy is just teasing you.”
“So, Mommy agreed, right? Be at Mount Funky Cafe at 10 today, Table 11. Don’t forget!’ Jeremy
quickly hung up after giving the address, fearing he might reveal too much.
Madison couldn’t shake the feeling of being lured into something, but since she had agreed to it, she
decided to make the trip. She was curious to see what exactly her son meant by a “big deal.”
Probably due to Neville’s cold nature, Madison never excessively restricted her son. She believed that
the kid should have the freedom to be himself, allowing him to pursue his interests within reasonable
limits and granting him enough privacy. At the age of three, Jeremy developed a keen interest in
hacking. Madison took it upon herself to teach him, and to her surprise, the youngd exhibited
exceptional aptitude, almost surpassing her skills. Later, he became fascinated with weapon
modifications, prompting her to hire a top-notch weapons expert for private lessons. asionally, he

training camps. After a year of private tutoring, the instructor jokingly imed there was nothing left to
teach Jeremy, over the past year, Jeremy had already begun taking independent orders on the dark
web.

However, before Madison left, she had to make a trip to the headquarters of Loveille. Recently, thanks
to the fame brought by Daisy and Alison. Loveille gained multiple trending topics, significantly boosting
its exposure. The brand’s visibility had risen, leading to a steady stream of buyers, and orders were
already booked until the end of next year. With a triumphant expression, Ross handed Madison the
financial report, saying, “Madison, we really need to thank Ms. Preston and Miss Conner. Loveille’s
inventory has not only beenpletely sold out due to overwhelming demand but also the order
volume has multiplied several times.”
Madison quickly scanned the report, noting that while the order volume was still on the rise, Loveille
had been stagnant for the past three years. Moreover, the orders were all handmade, and there was a
shortage of skilled tailors, causing ack of production capacity. Hiring arge number of tailors at this
point would not only raise doubts from outsiders about Loveille but also waste a significant amount of
thepany’s manpower and resources. After all, the process of recruiting and training a tailor would
involve manyplex procedures, from assessment to onboarding
The most efficient approach would be to coborate with major luxury brands. Loveille could provide
design drafts, and the major brands would be responsible for the manual tailoring. After all, these
prominent luxury brands had stood tall in the fashion industry for a long time, boasting arge number
of highly experienced tailors. Initially, Madison intended to leverage the identity of the winner in the
competition to negotiate cooperation with Fliwip. However, with Neville and Alison being severely
criticized now, it would be only natural for them to hold a grudge against her. On the other hand, from
her perspective, thispetition was organized by Neville for Alison. Therefore, regardless of the
oue, Alison was destined to be Fliwip’s ultimate partner. This fact forced Madison to find an
alternative path for Loveille.
After contemting for a moment, Madison turned to Ross and said, “I heard Ethan Collins, the CEO of
Collins, has returned. Arrange a meeting for me.”
Ross’s eyes widened. “What? You want to meet Ethan? Are you nning to coborate with Collins?”
If we’re seeking a partner, why not choose one on par with Fliwip?” Madison insisted on her decision.
“Boss, do you know the rtionship between Ethan and Neville?” Ross asked.
Madison nodded. Ethan and Neville were arch-enemies, known to have shed since childhood.
Neville ventured into real estate, and Ethan was unwilling to fall behind. The two oncepeted for a
piece ofnd, directly auctioning it for over 200 million dors. However, they both got disqualified in
the end due to viting auction rules. While the Preston family excelled in the hotel business, Ethan,
not to be outdone, swiftly opened a chain of hotels by copying the management structure from Neville.
The Collins family’s forte was in the fashion business, and Neville partnered with Ryan to elevate Fliwip
to a luxury brand that could rival Collins. Moreover, the rivalry extended beyond the business realm,
with Ethan once pursuing Alison. In the end, Neville outmaneuvered Ethan, s n a t chi
n g Alison away.
Observing Madison’s expression. Ross knew she was aware of the situation. He advised, “Boss, Ethan
despises everything about Neville. Although you’ve imed to have divorced Neville, you still have
some association with him. Trying to coborate with his arch-enemy might prove to be a challenging
endeavor.”
Madison raised an eyebrow. “How do we know if we don’t try?”
With the clock ticking towards ten, Madison changed into suitable attire and hurried to Mount Funky
Cafe. Following the waiter’s guidance, she arrived at Room 11. Upon enterin
g, she saw a man with well-sculpted features and half-tied braided hair, appraising her with keen
interest. He spoke up first, “Are you my blind date for today?”
