My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise

Chapter 35

On the second floor of the banquet hall, Leo stood by the railing, looking down at everything with an

expressionless face.

“Hey Leo, what are you staring at over there?” Cullen was always interested in beauties. and banquets.

Unfortunately, more old men were looking for him to talk business than beautiful women since he just

returned to the country. He had just managed to break

free.

But then again, if it weren’t for the huge T-shaped platform in front, Cullen wouldn’t know if it was a

fashion banquet or something else. He walked up to Leo with a glass of wine and patted him on the

shoulder, sighing softly. “Good job, man, standing here with a sour face. No one dares to come near

you. Unlike me, I get bothered wherever I

go.”

Leo coldly pushed his hand away. “Back off.”

“Why are you so angry? You didn’t find Sylvia, so you are standing here with a poker face, right?”

Cullen didn’t stop talking. Following Leo’s gaze, he suddenly saw a familiar figure. He tapped the

railing, his eyes widening in surprise. “Hey, isn’t that my wife? Who’s that man next to her?”

Leo shot Cullen a cold glance. Cullen immediately corrected himself. “Your wife! Your wife!

Leo’s gaze returned to Madison’s departing figure. He stood there without saying at word, and nobody

could tell what he was thinking.

Cullen finally recognized the man Madison was with. He clicked his tongue, making a confused sound.

“How does Jessica know the eldest son of the Smith family, and their relationship seems better than

that between you two.”

Leo’s gaze turned cold once again. He said, “Caius Smith, the CEO of Quantum Dynamics, is the live-

in son-in-law of the Daves family. They refer to the twins ast “Ethan Smith’ and ‘Samuel Smith’ while

outsiders call Samuel ‘Mr. Smith. But on the birth certificate, their last name is still Daves. Joe is their

cousin.”

Cullen met Joe and Madison at Opal Heights Bar, so it made sense that Madison would know Samuel

too. As for the last name, Cullen didn’t dwell on it.

The Daves family had always been low-key, and their descendants were all talented. Joe ran an

entertainment company, and Ethan was a popular esports star. These were the reasons the Daves

family’s background was exposed. As for the other descendants, most people didn’t even know their

names.

Cullen suddenly thought of something and turned to Leo. “Hey Leo, do

you remember

the last time the Daves family donated 100 million dollars to assist the police because their youngest

daughter was brought back? Do you think Jessica might be the Daves. family’s daughter?”

If that were the case, she would be way out of the Wilkinson family’s league. Even the Palmer family

would be considered inferior. A few years ago, the Palmer family could compare themselves to the

Daves family. However, the Daves family’s descendants have been making lots of money recently.

However, apart from Leo, the Palmer family’s current generation was isolated and outnumbered.

Cullen’s speculation was met with a few seconds of silence before Leo quickly denied it. “No,” he said

decisively.

“How do you know? The Daves family members are so attentive to Jessica. Cullen. looked at him. “And

I heard that the Daves family’s daughter is called… Jessica Daves. Don’t you think it sounds a little

familiar?”

Leo looked at Cullen as if Cullen were an idiot. “The name ‘Madison’ was chosen by my grandfather. If

she is the Daves family’s daughter, she wouldn’t change it, nor would she need to. Jessica is a plain

name, and anyone can come up with it.”

When Leo said the name, there was a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Cullen wasn’t pleased. “What’s wrong with this name? She has a plain name, but she’s not a plain girl.

called Jessica Jessica is such a good name. The Daves family’s daughter is also

called Jessica. You’re scolding the entire Daves family?”

Leo remained noncommittal. He didn’t have a good impression of the Daves family, so it was

understandable that he would scold them. He didn’t dwell on the name anymore and said in

seriousness. “The day the Daves family’s daughter returned, Madison. returned to the country to

discuss divorce with me. How could she possibly appear in Rozalia?”

Leo had considered this possibility as well. However, when he looked at the importance the Daves

family placed on their daughter, it was impossible for her not to be present on the day she was

supposed to return to the family. Therefore, Leo dismissed this speculation.

As for why Madison was so familiar with the Daves family…

Leo’s gaze suddenly darkened. “I asked you to investigate her. How did it go?”

Whenever the investigation was mentioned, Cullen was overwhelmed with a sense of frustration. He

had been on to something, finding traces of the other party altering the files. But then, as if the other

party had become alerted to it, they blocked his access and even reinforced their defenses.

88%

“It’s difficult!” Cullen lamented, slumping over the railing. “I underestimated your wife. No wonder you’re

investigating her.”

Leo didn’t say much in response. “I’ll try when I return to the company tomorrow,” he said. Then, he

glanced at his wristwatch before turning to leave. There was no longer any sign of Madison, so there

was no point in staying any longer. Besides, it was about time for Fan ny’s fashion show to begin.

Leo had searched for Sylvia for so long without a trace, and now his only chance was to try his luck at

the fashion show. Surely, Fa nny wouldn’t invite Sylvia without expecting her to make an appearance. It

would be too arrogant to hold one’s talents in such high esteem but not show up.

Backstage at the fashion show, all the preparations were complete. Fa nny finally had a moment to

take Madison to the lounge for a brief chat.

“Do you want to go up and say something later? Sylvia?” Fan ny teased Madison while opening the live

stream of the fashion show. At that moment, the models hadn’t. appeared, and the designer

responsible for the theme was on stage, sharing her design. philosophy.

Madison shook her head. “Better not. My almost ex-husband is still looking for me. I don’t want to invite

trouble.” When she decided not to renew her contract with the Palmer Group, she had anticipated Leo

might try to hold onto her, but she hadn’t expected him to intervene personally. After all, with his current

standing in the Palmer Group, he could afford to cut the entire design department without a second

thought.

There were other people in the design department. It wasn’t like three years ago when she was caught

between a rock and a hard place. There was no need for him to go to such lengths.

“Almost ex-husband? You haven’t completed the divorce?” Fan ny raised an eyebrow, her ocus

shifting. She sat up straight and looked at Madison seriously. “Jessica, you can’t be love-struck that you Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

still harbor fantasies about men. Let me tell you, there’s not at single good man out there. You need to

get that divorce finalized quickly!”

“That Palmer bas ta rd looks like a decent man, but the moment he got married, he sent his wife

abroad for another woman, Fa nny thought. “What a scu mbag!’

Fan ny was infuriated just thinking about it, and she looked at Madison with sympathy. But right after

she finished speaking, a voice tinged with amusement came from behind.

“Mrs. Smith, aren’t you generalizing a bit too much? How can you say there’s not a single good man

out there? What about your sons and nephews are they not good

men?”
