My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise

Chapter 224

It was not that the Daves family did not tell Madison.

However, since Melia, who had married into the Watson family in Sidovor City, returned to Rozalia, Rosalie and her family had some disagreements. As a result, Rosalie reduced contact with the Cooper family in the following years, and so she did not tell Madison much about that side of the family.

As for the Cooper family, they naturally knew that the daughter, who had been lost since young, had returned to them.

A few months ago, when Madison returned to the country, and the Daves family donated 200 million dollars, they sent congratulatory gifts.

However, Madison had not officially returned home, and the Daves family did not bring their relatives from the maternal side over as guests. Madison had not seen them yet.

"When you stay here for a while, you'll know all your relatives. There's no hurry," John explained to her. He was also worried that Madison would think too much and added, "Your two uncles are very concerned about you. Since you returned to the country, they have often asked about you. Only Aunt Melia might be dissatisfied with you because she argued with Mom. Don't take it to heart when you meet her. Grandpa and Grandma aren't very old. They have been recuperating at home all these years. Mom will make arrangements and will bring us over to visit them. Jessica, remember to spare some time."

The Daves family initially wanted to arrange a party to invite their family and friends in the Rozalia's circle to gather. They wanted to show off Madison in front of others.

It was just that things had been unpleasant on the Internet some time ago. The Daves family was worried that someone with ulterior motives would slander Madison's reputation. Moreover, Madison was not someone who liked to be in a crowd, so they canceled the plan.

However, the party could be canceled, but that kind of family interaction could not be avoided.

They had to bring Madison out to meet people sooner or later.

Madison was originally happy she had more relatives, but when she heard the rest, she wanted to cry. If she could, Madison would rather lie at home. What a sweet burden.

"Got it, John. I'll probably be busy for three to four consecutive days after tomorrow. You can take me anywhere you want after that." Madison held Charlie's hand and got into the back seat of the car. She ran through her subsequent arrangements.

Madison had to pick up Greg tomorrow.

The day after tomorrow was Joe's birthday. Whether Joe wanted to celebrate it or not, Madison had to prepare a surprise for him.

That was followed by the food festival that Greg mentioned. Greg was supposed to attend, but Greg used the excuse of Madison having better skills to pressure her to represent Rose Garden as a judge. She had to go.

After that, there should be nothing else. Madison could follow their arrangements.

As for the location of the studio, Madison could only delay it for a while. It could not be rushed.

The most important thing now was to eat delicious food.

However, John was about to drive when he was interrupted by a call.

The call was from Rosalie. Whatever she said made John's expression darken slightly.

However, when John turned around and looked at them in the back seat, he had already returned to normal. His tone was also a little joking. "Madison, I'm afraid I can't take you out for dinner today. Mom has prepared dinner at the family residence. We have to go back."

"Sure, as long as there's food." Although Madison wanted to try the Rozalia specialty, her mother was more important.

Even if Rosalie's culinary skills were not good, Madison was still willing to go home for dinner. Moreover, Rosalie's culinary skills were not bad either.

John drove the car. When he turned his head, he spoke again to Madison just in case, "Mom should have something to say to you when we get home later. Don't be agitated."Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"What is it?" Madison was curious.

John looked at Madison through the mirror with a meaningful look in his eyes. "You'll know when you get back."

Madison frowned at John but did not ask further.

Although Madison was curious, she would know when she got home later, so she did not have such a strong desire to know right then.

Moreover, John was still driving. Madison did not want to distract him, so she held Charlie and looked at the scenery outside the car.

As the car turned around the fountain downstairs, Madison frowned.

She seemed to have seen a person dressed strangely walking toward the company just now.

Unfortunately, it was a passing glimpse. When Madison wanted to take a closer look, there was only greenery on both sides of the road in front of her. She could not see the company entrance.

It was no wonder Madison was on guard.

When Madison was overseas, she was followed by a hooligan and almost lost her life. She couldn't help but think about that.

Quardmart Group was located in an area surrounded by office buildings. The people coming and going were all dressed professionally and had similar temperaments. Those who were dressed in tattered clothes were eye-catching. .

Madison did not discriminate against such people. If it was anywhere else, she would not even take a second look at them. However, it was strange for someone like that to appear there.

It would seem that the person was there to cause trouble.

Madison was right. The person was indeed there to cause trouble.

However, the person wasn't there to cause trouble for the company but to look for someone.

*****

At the CEO's station in Quadmart Group, Serena was still thinking about what had happened in the lounge. She sat in a daze at her desk.

The messages in the gossip group continued to flood the screen.

One of them wrote, [The gossip seemed to be true. I just went to get some water and accidentally passed by the CEO's lounge. I heard a particularly charming voice and almost died of sweetness!] Another shouted, [Oh? Tell us!]

Although John's lounge was separated, it was only separated from the staff's lounge with a partition, forming a separate space. It did not have a soundproofing effect like the conference room. In other words, if someone spoke slightly louder inside, they would be heard outside.

The first person answered, [I heard that woman speak sweetly to Mr. Daves. Even a woman like me can't take it! That coquettishness almost spread to my heart, making my heart soften!]

Someone else added, [Wow! I think Mr. Daves's legs went weak too. Is that why he got off work early? He must be bringing her out today. He's a workaholic but he's willing to leave early for her!]

Another chimed in, [No wonder

Serena looked like she had lost her

soul after coming out of the lounge, She looks so pitiful. If it were me, would have resigned. How could I still have the face to stay by Mr. Daves's side?]

Serena's eyes trembled slightly when she saw her name.

When Serena saw what those people were talking about, a self-deprecating smile appeared on her face.

How could she stay by John's side? Serena scoffed. Was it wrong to like someone she shouldn't like? Serena believed that she had never let her emotions affect her work.

The only exception was the child.

A hint of loneliness appeared in Serena's eyes. She couldn't help but press her palm against her small abdomen. She wondered what would have happened if she had raised Charlie by her side after he was born.

However, Serena quickly dismissed the thought.

If Serena had given birth to Charlie and raised him herself, she probably wouldn't be working at the Quadmart Group anymore.

There were many things to do around John. She was not the only assistant by John's side. If she was too lazy and lax, Quadmart Group would not want her.

If Serena was fired from the Quadmart Group, what kind of life could she lead as a single mother with her child? Perhaps the blood-sucker at home would even trick the child away and sell him.

Serena would never allow that to happen. Therefore, sending Charlie to the Daves family was the best ending.

Serena was no longer in the mood to read these people's gossip. She turned off her computer with a cold expression and grabbed her bag, planning to get off work.

Just as Serena was tidying up, her phone vibrated.

Serena lowered her eyes. Then, the blood in her body seemed to freeze. A chill spread from the soles of her feet to the head. She was at a loss of what to do.
