My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise

Chapter 131

Leo looked at the word and frowned.

Then, with a strong stroke, he crossed out the tip of the pen on it and set the contract. aside.

On the sofa, Cullen did not dwell too much on Sally. He put down the four boxes of pastries after

tasting one of each. He wiped his hands with a tissue and returned to his usual casual tone.

“You can do whatever you want. After all, you’re the one getting married, not me. But as a friend, I’ve

said what I have to say. Just don’t regret it in the future. Also, let me say this first. I’m not going to your

wedding.”

“As you wish.”

Leo had started to deal with the documents on the table.

Cullen looked up at him and saw his tired face. In the end, he could not help but speak.

“The company doesn’t have any urgent projects recently. If you haven’t rested well, go back and rest. It

won’t make a big difference if you’re not around for a short while. After all, you’re paying all those

people just to get things done, right?”

Leo did not even look up as he flipped through the documents in his hand. “I couldn’t sleep after being

woken up by you guys.”

He was not sleepy to begin with. Although he was woken up by Madison in the middle of the night last

night, it was rare for him to have a good night’s sleep without the help of medicine.

When he went to the doctor, Chuck Cox’s place to get the medicine this morning, the fatigue test data

was still normal.

As for the fatigue at this moment, it was the side effect of the medicine he had just taken. On the other

hand, these matters indeed gave him a headache.

It seemed that everything that involved Madison irritated him.

At the thought of her, he put down the pen in his hand.

He looked down and saw that another contract was invalidated.

Leo pressed between his eyebrows and stopped reading the document.

He sorted out the two contracts and sent them to Morris for him to print and send them back. Then, he

sat on the sofa opposite Cullen with a cup of coffee.

His deep gaze swept across the table. Then, he took a piece of pastry and put it into hist

mouth.

Its sweet and soft taste instantly dispelled the frustration in his chest, and even his brows relaxed.

At the same time, a sense of familiarity surged in his memory again.

When he tried to find the memory linked to the taste, all he got was the lingering sweetness of the food.

It was so delicious that he couldn’t recall anything else.

He frowned, feeling unsatisfied, and then took another

piece.

Cullen suddenly raised his head and could not help but click his tongue when he saw Leo’s actions. His

expression was very complicated.

“Leo, you’ve just gotten a divorce, and now you’re already eating snacks made by your ex-wife. Isn’t

that a bit awkward?”

“Why?” Leo looked calm.

Cullen was speechless. “What do you think? You’ve already divorced her, yet you’re still eating her

cooking. Don’t you know how to avoid suspicion? If Sally sees this, she’ll definitely get into a fight with

you. Fortunately, she’s in the hospital now”

The last sentence was a little sarcastic, but overall, it was Cullen’s experience.

He had had countless relationships. After they broke up, each of his exes blocked him and deleted his

number, even saying he was dead. As for his current girlfriend, she always scolded him whenever the

topic of his exes came up even though he had not done anything.

Later on, he decided not to have a girlfriend anymore. He only looked for relationships that were more

physical than emotional.

Of course, Jessica was an exception. He added in his heart.

Leo was still puzzled.

He raised his eyes and looked straight at Cullen. His tone was straightforward.

“Since she gave it to me, it means that she doesn’t mind. It’s naturally not a big deal for me to eat

some. Moreover, she knows that this marriage was a mistake in the first place. If it weren’t for my

grandfather, there wouldn’t be such a twist. Divorce is just going with the flow, why should I avoid

suspicion?”

He paused for a moment before continuing.

“As for Sally, she can’t see this. Even if she knew, she wouldn’t mind.”

Cullen sneered. Then, he sighed deeply and looked up at the ceiling.

Leo must have taken too many medicines and had a problem with his brain.

His intelligence was quite high, but why did his emotional intelligence seem to be in the negatives?

Leo could not figure out what was wrong with his thoughts, but he could tell the meaning behind

Cullen’s actions.

He frowned. “Is there something wrong with what I said?”

“Everything is wrong.”

Cullen sat up straight on the sofa and explained things to Leo like a good friend.

“First of all, Jessica gave these pastries as a polite way to thank Morris as the messenger. It would be

the same for anyone else.”

“Secondly, even though your marriage was arranged by your grandfather, did Jessica like you since

you were young and want to marry you? Since the emotions between the two of you are not pure, you

naturally have to avoid arousing suspicion. Moreover, even if there was nothing between the two of you

before, you still have to avoid arousing suspicion. There is no pure relationship between men and

women.”

“Lastly, you said that Sally wouldn’t mind. Then let me ask you, what about Jessica’s injuries? Let’s not

talk about the past because we couldn’t blame you in the past. I ask you, why did Sally repeatedly

target Jessica after she returned to the country? Isn’t it because of the name Mrs. Palmer? Do you

think she was such a kind woman?”

There was a moment of silence in the office.

Suddenly, the knock on the door broke the silence.

Morris opened the door with the document in his hand, unsure whether he should. come in or not. He

swallowed his saliva and said, “Mr. Palmer, the documents have been printed.”

Leo did not say anything.

Cullen raised his chin. “Just put them down.”

“Alright!” Morris came in, put down the documents, and quickly left.

The frosted glass door closed and the silence returned.

After a long while, Leo said, “I didn’t think too much about it.”

F

He took a tissue and wiped his fingers. It was obvious that he would not touch those. pastries again.

Cullen snorted. “You’re not thinking too much, you just don’t understand women.”

He sighed and leaned back lazily on the sofa.

This was one of the reasons why he didn’t want Leo to marry Sally.

She was double-faced, showing a different side in front of others and behind their backs. With a jealous

nature, it’s expected that once she became Mrs. Palmer, she would probably use the status to deal with

any women Leo approached.

As a good friend, Cullen wanted to remind him, but he just glanced at him and held. back all his words.

What if she minded it?

After all, from the time they spent together, Leo knew Sally better than him, who was overseas all year © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

round.

Besides, everyone had seen what happened at the Hale family banquet last time.

Cullen did not say anything more.

It was better for them to talk about business.

He sat up straight and turned the computer on the table toward Leo.

“Leo, look at this,”

Public opinion on the Internet was still fermenting.

Due to the negative impact of Leo, the shares of the Palmer Group also continued to

fall.

Even though the Public Relations Department of Palmer Group’ had already started to take action and

even spent money to minimize the impact, they still could not stop the negative talk.

Moreover, while some were trying to cool things down, others were intentionally. stirring up more heat.

Some people looked at the stock market with worried expressions, while others laughed

heartily when they saw the various online posts.

After returning from the Rose Garden, Madison read all kinds of posts on her phone. She could not

stop smiling when she saw the comments about Sally.

What surprised her was an anonymous post on a forum. It directly revealed Sally’s recent detention.

People were puzzled about why Leo from the Palmer family would marry someone with legal troubles.

Soon, this post became quite popular.
