Chapter 8
My Wife Is A Masquerade Master
0 Looking at the speeding car, Madison widened her eyes in shock. âIs Neville out of his mind? she thought.
Ross was also startled by this sudden situation, his whole body trembling.
Madison forcefully turned the steering wheel, and the car swerved into the green belt.
Nevilleâs car, scraping against the Ferrari, left with a harsh noise, leaving a glaring mark on the Ferrari.
Ross watched the departing car and then looked at the hardâhit Ferrari. He suddenly exclaimed, âDamn it. He scratched my car and fled. I have to sue him!â
Seeing him take out his phone to call the police, Madison whispered. âItâs Nevilleâ
Ross sneered. Then I want to nothing! Donât worry, Madiso him even more. You spent three years with him, and when you divorce, he leaves you wi nothing! Donât worry, Madison, Iâll hit him hard. Weâll split everything fiftyâfifty when we get his moneyâ
Madison was speechless and gazed at him âIf you think you can survive going back to the country, go ahead and sue him.â
Ross felt a shiver run down his spine as he recalled the rumors he had heard. It was said that when Neville was on the brink of death, numerous members of the Preston family had attempted to seize power. However, the day after Neville underwent a successful kidney transplant, he reappeared in the Preston family with an IV drip.
No one knew exactly what happened in the Preston family back then, but Nevilleâs ironâfisted approach had led to significant changes in the Preston Group. The Preston Group was thriving today, all thanks to his ruthless methods.
Mentioning Neville in Norton would make anyone shudder.
Better not provoke him. I want to be alive, Ross thought.
Tm just standing up for you. Neville is a billionaire now. Getting nothing after the divorce is a big loss for you,â Ross said.
Madison reminded him, âIt was my idea.â
After struggling for a while, Ross said, âMadison, you love him so much that you canât bear to take anything from him?â
Madison looked at him with a faint smile and said, âNo. I just donât want to have anything to do with him.â
Ross halfâjokingly said, âBut my intuition tells me that he still has some feelings for you.â
He had clearly sensed the killing intent from Neville just now. If Madison hadnât turned the steering wheel Ross might be dead.
This killing intent stemmed from the competition between men.
Madison smiled bitterly and said, âYouâre overthinking. Heâs just warning me.â
âWarning you? Does he think youâve cheated on him and Iâm your secret lover? Ross asked.
Madison gave him a meaningful look and said, âNeville never cares about my feelings or life. He only cares about his. dignity.â
Besides, she couldnât understand why Neville, who always controlled his emotions well in front of others, suddenly lost his temper Ross laughed. âMadison, I canât just let myself be labeled as a secret lover. How about we just be a couple?â
Madison gave him a cold look. âDo you want me to tell Hazel about your thoughts?â
n your He grinned. âFine, I get it. You like coldâhearted scumbags like Neville. Handsome and charming guys like me canât win heart. Harel has good tasteâ
Tl cover the repair cost for the car,â said Madison.
Tsk. Such a case of the wife paying the husbandâs debt.â
âRest assured, Iâll get it back from Neville Madison reminded Ross to get an invoice when fixing the car so that she could settle the bill with Neville.
Considering that this incident resulted from Nevilleâs erratic behavior. Madison felt no obligation to shoulder the blame on his behalf. Furthermore, since she had made up her mind to pursue a divorce, she was determined to handle everything with clarity. She didnât want Neville to think she would continue to help him with everything as before.
Ross gave her a thumbsâup and said. âThatâs the woman I know. You should be as revengeful as before. I donât know what Neville did to you three years ago, making you act like a virtuous woman for three years.â
Madison selfâmockingly said. âProbably because I was naive.â
Three years ago, when she married Neville, the Preston family disapproved of her, and Neville didnât go home for three months.
Despite the anticipation and joy she felt upon finally seeing him, Madisonâs hopes were quickly shattered when Nevilleâs first words were not filled with concem or inquiries, but instead laced with mockery.
âMadison, youâre really naive!â Ross said.
Madison still couldnât understand why. Even if it was a stranger who donated a kidney to him, Neville should at least show a bit of gratitude, not hatred or ridicule.
Neville pursed his thin lips, driving silently. The atmosphere in the car was exceptionally tense.
Bernard cautiously said, âMr. Preston, itâs evident that you have Miss Guzman in your mind. Should I ask her to join us?
Neville suddenly let out a cold laugh. âShould I send you to the hospital for a brain CT scan? How could you think I care about her?â
Bernard was about to cry. âMr. Preston. I just had a medical checkâup, and my body is completely fine.
I can handle any task you give me.â
Neville said coldly. âI donât want to hear something like that again.â
How could I possibly like Madison? Even if I keep a dog, as long as the leash is in my hands, I canât let it go seeking food. elsewhere, he thought.
After driving for a while, Neville glanced in the rearview mirror. The glaring red color was still there in the green belt, and his mood inexplicably improved.
âWhy did Madison appear with Ross?â he asked suddenly.
Bernard had just felt relieved when he trembled again upon hearing Nevilleâs question.
Bernard racked his brains before figuring out what Neville wanted to hear. For the sake of his job and salary, Bernard ventured. âOf course, itâs to make you jealous. Miss Guzman deliberately took the same flight as you, which already explains everything.â
Neville was indeed satisfied, but he coldly snorted, âDaydreaming In Nevilleâs mind, whether it was proposing a divorce or traveling with Ross, it was all for gaining his attention. It seemed like the old tricks, and Madison had just played new tricks to provoke him.
semo Unfortunately, these tactics were useless against him. After all. Neville had never taken Madison senty Bernard was speechless After returning to the hotel. Madison went to bed early. There was still a tough battle to be fought tomorrow Ryan Blanton, the director of Flowip, was difficult to deal with. If Lovele wanted to stand our among the brands that we to cooperate with Fliwip, it wouldnt be easy When she was sleeping soundly. Bernard called and said. âMiss Guzman, sorry for distarting you late at nightâ
Suppressing her anger. Madison asked in a daze. Whats the matter âWell Mr. Prestonâs stomachache has recurred. What stomach medicine do you usually prepare for Bernard asked.
Madison immediately sent the name of the medicine She thought the calls would stop. However, Bernard called every half bour âMiss Guzman, does the medicine have any side effects? Does it need to be taken with antibiotics Miss German Madisonâs sleepiness disappeared. âGive the phone to Nevilleâ she shouted any
