My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise

Chapter 29

“For the customers whose dining reservations were affected by today’s closure, you can visit Rose

Garden any day in the future with your reservation voucher,” Madison said. “In addition, you’ll receive

three dishes of your choice on the house.

“Tasting food is a very subjective experience. At Rose Garden, we respect our diners’ preferences. If

it’s not suitable, you are free to choose other cuisines or visit other restaurants. We at Rose Garden

won’t claim to satisfy every diner, but we have confidence in our dishes.

“Finally, Rose Garden’s closure comes to an end now. Tonight’s business hours remain. the same as This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

usual. The guests with tonight’s dinner reservation can come now or arrange for another time at your

convenience. To all visiting diners as well as guests who are here, please travel safely. We hope to

explore more delightful cuisines together with you in the future. Thank you!”

She was sincere, but at that moment, no one in the livestream was paying any attention to what she

was saying.

The livestream and the entire internet were flooded with comments like “Wifey, you’re right!” or similar

phrases. After listening briefly, it only reinforced the notion of her being beautiful and kind-hearted.

Only the fans onsite and were famished knew how mean Madison was, especially when waves of

delicious food smell wafted from the kitchen.

Those fans thought, ‘So, we’ve been squatting here all day, and we can’t even get a meal? The

restaurant has been closed for a whole day, so why bother about the customers who made

reservations? Isn’t it good to fleece the people holding the signs at the door who have affected their

business? Charging a high price is fine with us too!”

But Madison would not do that.

She thought, ‘On what basis should they be allowed to feel justified in enjoying a good meal after

disrupting someone’s business? How many people have to wait a whole month for a reservation at

Rose Garden? If they manage to immediately dine at Rose Garden after causing a scene here, will

Rose Garden still be in business in the future? Rules are set and shouldn’t be broken, especially not for

a group of people that causes trouble!’

As soon as “thank you” was said, Madison walked straight into the restaurant, paying no attention to

the expressions of the group of people before her.

Her

spontaneous and unrestrained demeanor as she took her leave increased the crowd’s fascination with

her. The level of excitement in the livestream room did not

diminish even after Rose Garden announced its clarification. Instead, it peaked the moment Madison

turned away.

At Opal Heights Bar, Leo finished off yet another bottle of liquor.

His expression was grim. His black eyes stared intently at the phone screen, and his gaze did not shift

even when he took his drink.

He thought, ‘Wifey? She’s my wife! These people have only seen her once online. On what basis

should they call her wifey?”

He suddenly threw the empty glass heavily onto the table.

Cullen, who was looking at the phone in his hands, was startled. He jumped up from the sofa and said,

“You’ve drunk too much alcohol, huh?”

Leo did not even lift his eyes.

At this point, the live broadcast had ended. However, the media was still replaying it to capitalize on the

hype. They even took specific scenes involving her and edited them to generate discussion.

Cullen glanced over and could not help but sigh softly. “You are being jealous because the public has

sna tched your wife away, huh?” he said.

He squeezed over, sat beside Leo, and patted his shoulder.

“Get lost,” Leo said.

Filled with disdain, he extended his leg and kicked Cullen.

He thought, ‘Ridiculous. Why would I feel jealous because of Madison?”

Cullen was not irritated. He cheerfully poured Leo a glass of drink. “If you’re not angry, why the long

face?” he said. “Don’t tell me it’s because of Sally.”

Just mentioning Sally made Cullen annoyed.

He thought, ‘I don’t know what kind of bewitching drink that woman gave Leo. She causes him to have

a poor sense of judgment.

Leo stopped using his phone and casually tossed it aside. With a cold expression, he took the glass of

alcohol, raised his head, and downed it. Then, he said, “What is the progress of your investigation on

the thing I asked you to look into the other day?”

Cullen was bending over to get a drink for himself. Upon hearing that, the movement of his hand

paused.

He caressed the rim of the alcohol glass with his fingertips for two seconds before pouring in the cold

liquid.

“To be honest, I didn’t find anything,” Cullen said. “It’s similar to the information you previously

investigated. Besides studying while she was abroad, she worked part-time to earn money. It’s a pretty

ordinary curriculum vitae.”

Leo furrowed his brow.

He thought, “If that’s true, how could she have changed so much? She changed from being the

Cinderella who never dared to raise her head in the past to becoming the princess at the center of the

ball. Unless… she was pretending all along. What’s her objective then?’

While he was lost in thought, Cullen casually spoke up. “However, her curriculum vitae has been

tampered with by someone with highly advanced skills,” he said. “I haven’t found a way to cra ck it yet.

But I’m sure this thing, which is unremarkable and seems ordinary, is a smokescreen.”

Leo suddenly raised his eyes and said, “What did you say?”

Cullen leaned back on the couch, swirling his drink gently. “I said wifey is so mysterious…” he trailed

off.

A glass of alcohol was nearly splashed onto Cullen’s face.

If he had not reacted quickly, he would have barely dodged it.

His anger, which had been accumulating, finally erupted. “Leo, do you need to see a psychologist?” he

said. “Just because we’re good buddies doesn’t mean you can be rude! If you do it again…”

“I’ve acquired Ronnie’s land,” Leo said. “Tomorrow, you and Morris can sign the contract. I’ll have

someone keep an eye on Madison. Carry on to investigate what happened to her when she was

abroad. Let me know immediately if anything happens.”

His indifferent words rudely interrupted Cullen.

He paused, gently rubbing his fingertips over his index finger, and continued in the same tone.

“Investigate what happened after she returned to the country too, including the people around her.”

Morris was supposed to find out what happened after Madison returned to the country, but not a single

clue was found even after spending lots of time and effort on it.

Apart from her public information, nothing was known about how she met Joe or became so close to

Greg from Rose Garden.

All the information available, as Cullen mentioned, was merely a smokescreen to show others what she

wanted them to see.

He thought, ‘What exactly is her objective?”

Cullen remained frivolous as he said, “Alright, I’ll take care of this matter.”

Leo furrowed his brow, his voice slightly serious as he said, “Pay more attention. We don’t know her

intentions yet, nor do we know who’s behind her. If it turns out to be

dear brother who’s behind her, you won’t even know how you have been deceived by a woman.”

Cullen was momentarily stunned. He clicked his tongue, sighed, and said, “So, the reason you are

delaying the divorce is not because you are worried about the young girl trusting someone who isn’t

trustworthy, but because you’re concerned about her… Sigh.

truly cold-hearted.”

Leo no longer responded. He pursed his thin lips.

His phone continued to push news updates about Madison, displaying them in pop-up notifications.

Fretful and restless, he picked up his phone, intending to leave. Suddenly, a news article titled ‘Classic

Battle Beauty’ popped up. The video thumbnail showed Madison dancing with Cullen that evening.

Cullen’s hands rested on her slender waist while her fingers fell on Cullen’s shoulder.

He thought, ‘No matter how you look at it, it’s visually irritating!

He turned off his phone and made a call in front of Cullen.

“Delete all the online news about Madison,” he said. “Yes. All of it!”

Cullen was left speechless.

But before Morris could take action, all online news about Madison disappeared.

Even the video in which Rose Garden clarified to clear up the misunderstanding did not contain her.

Only official statements for clarification remained.

Heated discussions about Madison were replaced by those about Sally as if the previous hype had

been short-lived.

A cold and probing question was posted in a chat group that had been silent for a while.

John texted, [Joe, I asked you to watch over Jessica in Sidovor City, and this is how you watch over

her? Taking her to a bar and letting her dance with a strange man. What
