Chapter 22
“Damn, you two got divorced?”
“She actually let go?”
They all knew that Madison loved Neville so much that she wouldn’t let go. Back then, she even sacrificed her kidney to save Neville.
Regina was difficult to get along with and the Preston family looked down on Madison’s background, so they subjected. Madison to many difficulties.
However, over the years, Madison endured hardship because of her deep love for Neville.
Micah asked again, “You really divorced? Neville, you better think it through. Madison is gentle and good at cooking, and most importantly, she wholeheartedly dedicates herself to you. You might never be with another woman like her again.”
Bryan said. “Good that they divorced. Madison may have a pretty face, but she didn’t have a good family background Marrying her is equivalent to supporting her family. Without this burden, Neville will have a more carefree life. But she was with you for three years. At least give her some alimony when you divorce.”
Neville had considered this issue, but Madison insisted on not taking a penny. Should he force her to take it?
Ryan glanced toward the stage and said, “Why do I feel like Miss Guzman has a rich nightlife after divorcing Neville?”
Micah rolled his eyes and said, “Didn’t you see that the person who brought her here is the wealthy young man Ross? Birds of a feather flock together,”
Ryan laughed. “I envy Ross for his carefree life with beauties around him.”
Neville’s face became increasingly gloomy as he downed a gulp of red wine, surrounded by an aura of solemnity.
Hazel’s excited voice resonated throughout the entire bar. “Next, the queen will toss a ball. Whoever catches it tonight will get the queen’s favor!”
Cheers erupted from the crowd below.
Madison looked speechless. All she wanted was to play a simple game, and spending the night with a man was off–limits.
Dancers handed her a red ball, saying, “My queen, it’s your arena. Choose whomever you like”
Madison played with the ball in her hands, and excited cheers erupted from the audience.
“Queen, pick me Pick me!”
“Queen, take me away. I can definitely make your ex regret losing you!”
“Pick me, and I’ll give you a good time, making you ecstatic.
When he listened to the passionate confessions below the stage, Neville’s fingers holding the wine glass tightened slightly.
Micah, sitting next to him, couldn’t help but shiver. He had a feeling that Neville might unleash his fury any moment.
Madison casually tossed the ball.
With a swoosh, the ball accurately landed in Neville’s arms.
Hazel’s excited voice came. “Young
ng man, tonin
tonight you must serve e our Queen well. Don’t be useless like her ex.”
Neville’s cold gaze fell on Madison, and after a moment, he walked toward her with a menacing aura.
Chapter 22
Ross and Hazel, seeing Neville approaching, were both stunned.
They didn’t expect that Madison would accidentally hit the ball at Neville.
When Madison saw his face clearly, she felt it was ridiculous.
She once put her heart into winning his favor, but when she seized doing this, fate brought them together.
People around were still cheering. Wow, what incredible luck! The ball landed on a handsome young man. They look like a perfect match.”
“If the lady doesn’t like the young man, she can still pick me!”
Neville’s eyes grew s
eyes grew sullener, and his cold aura subjected others to great pressure.
Madison suddenly felt embarrassed and cursed Ross.
Was this a surprise? It seemed more like a shock.
She tried to ignore Neville, smiling at everyone. “This one doesn’t count.”
Cheers echoed. “Looks like 1 still have a chance. Pick me!”
The music, accompanying the excitement of the crowd, became more lively.
Neville walked up to Madison with a stern face, grabbed her wrist, and dragged her out.
Seeing Neville taking Madison away, Hazel pushed Ross and said, “Get her back!”
Ross shrugged. “Don’t be silly. He’s terrible. I don’t want to seek death.”
Thave to take Madison back,” said Hazel.
Ross pulled her back and said, “Sweetheart, they just got divorced, but their relationship can’t just end. Some things can’t be cut off so easily. Let her handle it herself.”
Hazel felt it made sense but kept glancing towards the door from time to time, fearing that Neville might hurt Madison. After all, he looked terrifyingly gloomy, as if he could flare up at any moment.
Madison regained her composure and looked up at him with a smile. “Mr. Preston, is there something?
The bright moonlight framed her graceful figure. Her beautiful eyes, clear and assertive, were different from the gentleness.

Neville felt that Madison had changed a lot. Even her tone of speech was cold and distant, unlike the warmth from before. His frustration increased, and he snapped, “You’re quite open with Ross. He even allowed you to act shamelessly in front of other men.
Madison sneered. “It’s none of your business. Don’t forget. We’re already divorced.”
She didn’t want to spend another moment with Neville. As Madison turned to leave, Neville suddenly grabbed her wrist and said, “Madison, are you degrading yourself just to make me pity you?”
She suddenly burst into laughter. She knew Neville was always arrogant, but she didn’t expect him to be so narcissistic
What made him think that she wanted his pity?
“Mr. Preston, if there’s something wrong with your mind, go for a check–up. Don’t pester me, or I’ll call the police.”
Her smile was dazzling, but it pierced his heart, Neville suddenly let go of her hand. As if somewhat disgusted, he rubbed his fingers and said. Tm just warning you. Ross is not a good guy. If he’s okay with you degrading yourself in public, he might

send you to bed with his business partners, making you his bargaining chip.”
Madison didn’t get angry but smiled. “Thank you for your concern. Hut rest assured, the stupidest thing I’ve done so far is falling in love with you and marrying you. Fortunately, I’ve come to my senses now.”
Neville’s face grew even darker. She hadn’t been so sharp to him before. Moreover, over the past three years, he hadn’t mistreated her. Why did she look like she couldn’t wait to leave him!
“Madison, be wise! Even if you beg to come back to me, I won’t be moved!”
“You’re overthinking. Let’s go our separate ways. Don’t meddle with my life anymore.”
Madison turned and went back to the bar. Neville felt annoyed, but he couldn’t vent his anger
Madison could easily provoke him now.
Once Madison returned to her seat, she took a few more sips of her drink”
Madison tried to convince herself that Neville had nothing to do with her anymore, but she could still be hurt by his words.
It seemed as if, in Neville’s eyes, she deserved to be associated with lowliness and foolishness.
Why did he look down on her?
Love could indeed make her humble to the point of losing herself, but Madison was not the woman she used to be. She was no longer bound by humble love.
Madison drank a bit too much, her head feeling heavy. She staggered towards the restroom.
At this moment, a figure blocked the door, raising her hand to deliver Madison a slap.
