Chapter 59

When Madison married into the Preston family, the Guzman family had secretly asked Neville for 6 million dollars without Madison knowing.

When Neville and Madison had returned, Neville slammed the check on the table in front of her.

At that moment, Madison felt humiliated and heartbroken. Madison had been willing to donate her kidney to him and had done whatever she could to be accepted as his wife because she truly loved Neville.

However, the Guzman family had treated her as a piece of meat, sold at a high price.

Madison suddenly felt that her love was regarded as something cheap.

It was also because of these 6 million dollars that the mother and daughter of the Preston family had mocked Madison for being a blood-sucking leech who would do anything to gain as much as she could from the Preston family.

Madison could not convince Lily to return the money, and she felt guilty. As such, she endured all the humiliation she received in the Preston family.

Perhaps, after what had happened, the Guzman family never asked Madison to go home again.

However, after Madison issued the late divorce declaration, the Guzman family was now calling her to return, home for dinner.

Of course, Madison did not think the Guzman family would ask about her well-being or comfort her broken heart.

They would only try to squeeze whatever they could out of her.

Seeing that Madison did not say anything for a long time, Hazel said, “Anyway, you don’t need that so-

called family of yours. Let’s sk i p it.”

Madison rubbed her temples. “Even if I know there’s nothing good about it, I still have to go. Some things have.

to be resolved.”

Besides, Madison knew that if she didn’t go, Lily would take the initiative to look for her and disturb her.

Madison felt that she might as well face her head-on.

“I heard from Ross that your father doesn’t have a good temper, and he once hit you. In their eyes, you’ve been abandoned by a wealthy family. Aren’t you afraid that he’ll hit you?” Hazel asked.

Madison curled her lips. “I’m no longer the child who would just take beatings and scoldings. If he dares to hit me, I’ll take this opportunity to blow things up.”

Hazel knew that Madison had always been a strategist. Every step Madison took was calculated. Of course, except when it came to Neville.

However, Madison could not be blamed for this. After all, women in love usually weren’t as clear-

headed. Once that love was gone, it was like lifting a curse, and their IQ would rise at lightning speed.

This was exactly Madison’s situation at the current moment.

If Madison’s parents attacked her now, Madison might not be the person who suffered.

Hazel suggested, “Since you’re going tomorrow, let’s have a few drinks tonight.”

Madison rolled her eyes at Hazel. “Don’t you need to control your weight?”

Hazel’s manager had to record her data almost every day. Recently, Hazel had been eating and drinking with Madison, acting as if she didn’t have to control her weight. Hazel didn’t seem to have any self-awareness an artist should have.

Hazel smiled and said, “Miss Guzman, this is called risking my life for a friend. Besides, I don’t have many schedules recently.”

Madison frowned. “Were you affected by what happened?”

Alison had refused to admit defeat and had spent a lot of money on influencer accounts and using those few photos of luxury cars and Ross’ scandal to hype up the gossip.

Hazel was Ross’ official girlfriend, so naturally, she would be involved in the vortex of public opinion.

Hazel waved her hand. “No, I’ve recently offended the boss. The big-name advertisements and dramas that I had have all been s n a t c h e d away. Moreover, I’m not very career-minded. If I don’t have a work schedule, then so be it. Anyway, I can’t waste my time.”

Madison sneered. “That useless Ross. He can’t even protect his real girlfriend and let others steal your jobs.”

Hazel said half-jokingly, “He’s only a little useful in bed. He’s not even as useful as you, his rumored affair. Why don’t I abandon him and become g a y with you? I might even become popular.””

I Madison smiled and said, “Even if the entire world abandoned Ross, you wouldn’t turn your back on him.”

“That might not be the case. I might run away one day.” Hazel answered.

Madison accepted Hazel’s suggestion and drove to a place called Western Cowboys.

According to the rules here, guests could disguise themselves in various roles.

Hazel decided to cosplay as a fox, putting on a fox mask and looking extremely sex y.

Madison, on the other hand, chose a conservative royalty outfit. She wore a diamond t a s se l mask to cover her mouth and nose.

As soon as they walked into the hall, Madison could feel the chaotic atmosphere. The sound of people dealing cards, excited voices, dealers calling out cards, and the voices of waiters calling out greetings.

All the sounds and voices melded together.

Everyone was dressed differently. If not for the sound of cards and dealers, Madison would have thought they had entered a masquerade ball.

Madison realized that the two of them were in a casino. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Hazel put her hand around Madison’s waist. “Madison, I know it’s noisy here, but the more chaotic the environment is, the more exciting it is. Moreover, when you’re playing cards, your nerves are highly focused. Your entire senses are mobilized, especially when you open the cards. It’s simply exciting.”

“I… haven’t played before, and I don’t like to play this kind of thing,” Madison said, Hazel dragged Madison towards the poker table. “If you don’t play a few rounds, how would you know it’s boring? Don’t worry, we’ll just play a few rounds for fun.”

“Alright, but my luck has always been bad. Don’t mind me if I lose.” Madison told Hazel.

“Tonight, let’s celebrate your victory over that bi t c h Alison. If you lose, it’s on me. If you win, you can keep the winnings.” Hazel said.

The two of them had slender figures. Even if they covered their faces, they still attracted a lot of attention. Someone immediately gave up their seats to them.

With the addition of a newcomer, there was naturally a need to reshuffle the cards. Soon, the sound of shuffling could be heard at the poker table.

Madison suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation when she heard this sound.

Madison had always been self-disciplined and had never indulged in anything, but this sound tempted her to indulge to her heart’s content.

Tonight, Madison would be a player without any restrictions.

Upstairs, Micah poured red wine for Neville attentively.

“Neville, you finally remembered me,” Micah said.

Neville drank the red wine. He felt inexplicably frustrated today. There was a burning feeling in his chest, but he did not know how to vent it out. Before he knew it, he had arrived at Micah’s place.

“As long as you don’t mention Madison,” Neville answered.

Micah responded, “Oh, you mean the person who provoked you is your ex-wife. What’s going on? Tell me.”

Looking at Micah’s gossipy and despicable expression, Neville really wanted to knock his head off.

“Shut up and leave me alone.” Neville snapped.

“Look, it’s not that I want to say this, but your new and old lovers are fighting so fiercely. Of course, it’s depressing.” Micah said.

Neville frowned. “Who’s the new lover, and who’s the old lover?”

“Your new lover is Alison, and your old lover is Madison. Isn’t everyone saying that Alison is already pregnant with your child?” Micah asked.

With a bang, Neville suddenly swept the red wine on the table to the ground. “Bulls h i t!”

Micah’s heart ached when he saw the red wine that cost more than 20 thousand dollars shatter in an instant.

Micah said, “Neville, if you’re angry, so be it, but you don’t have to waste money.”

Neville said irritably, “I won’t let anyone get pregnant with my child.” That included Madison.

“That’s strange. I heard someone even took photos of Alison going for a pregnancy checkup. Everyone is saying she’s going to marry into the Preston family soon. Unfortunately, her methods aren’t very brilliant. In the blink of an eye, your ex-wife has given her the title of a mistress.”
