Chapter 173
“She’s not my wife.” Almost subconsciously. Leo blurted out and looked at Madison finnly. Tm not married to her not my wife.
Madison almost refuted that both of them prere divorced. She would even address Sally as the new Mrs. Palmer. she said all that, Leo would suspect her being jealous of Sally. So she changed her words. “But everyone knows that you to marry her. She will become your wife, eventually. It doesn’t matter if it takes a while. Now leave. Don’t you know woma are sensitive? If Mrs. Palmer finds out you left her in the hospital to care about my business, how do you plan to coax her?
When Leo heard Madison’s words, he felt her words to be heart piercing, specifically the part where she addressed Sally as Mrs. Palmer. It seemed like it shouldn’t be addressed to Sally, but
Leo quickly dismissed the thought. He was supposed to marry Sally and avoid the marriage arranged by Edgar, But somehow, he felt Madison should be the legitimate Mrs. Palmer,
I’ve already visited her when she was hospitalized. Now that her injuries have recovered, there’s no need to keep looking after her. Besides, I’m not a doctor, Even if her injuries are that serious, what can I do! As for cousing her. I didn’t do anything wrong. Why should I coax her?”
Leo explained to Madison. Then, he gave her an impatient gaze. He looked like he expected better from her. On the other hand, you caused trouble every day when I didn’t keep an eye on you. You might even be kidnapped and forced to give money in large sums!”
“What kind of trouble do you mean? Madison stared at him in disagreement.
But Leo snorted and kicked the flat tire of Madison’s car. Yesterday, you injured your leg. Today, your car broke down. Tell me, in
this time of needs, what can you do if there’s no one by your side to look after you, huh?”
Leo’s long legs, which wrapped in his suit pants, took a step towards Madison, forcing her to retreat. But when her back touched the cold car door, she quickly reacted and pushed the person in front of her away. “Isn’t my leg injured because of you?” She said those words without hesitation
“As for my tire, how would I know if it’s going flat today? Can you blame me in this situation?” Madison stared at Leo, feeling he was being completely unreasonable.
Leo looked at Madison’s angry face, and the sadness in his chest dissipated for some reason. He lowered his eyes and met her black eyes that were wide open from anger. After that, he chuckled softly. “But no matter what, you’re the one who’s in trouble, right? And the trouble you have requires another person to step in Coincidentally, I’m the only person who is near you. So, let me give you a helping hand.”
He made a gentle gesture, obviously wanting to take her away. Upon seeing Madison did not move, he immediately reached out to pull her. But before his fingertips could touch her, she avoided him.
Madison looked up at him with a tired expression. “Leo, are you completely oblivious to this situation or faking it?”
Leo’s hand paused in mid-air. When he heard her question, he looked at Madison’s plain face in front of him. He then retracted his hand indifferently. His expression was calm as if seriously processing her words.
However, he couldn’t find the right answer. In the end, he asked curiously, “Then what do you think I should know? Or rather, what do you think I’m pretending to not know?”
Madison took a deep breath. Then, she tried to speak to him patiently. “Leo, we’re already divorced, and you’re about to have a new wife and new family. To you, I am nothing more than your ex-wife, and legally, we no longer have anything to do with each other. Do you understand?”
“Tunderstand, but so what?” Leo looked at Madison in confusion He didn’t understand how her words were relevant to the problem she currently faced. After that, he asked, “Do people’s relationships have to be bound by law? We are divorced, I know that, but we’ve known each other for more than 20 years. Are you going to destroy those 20 years as simple as destroying those documents?”

Madison pursed her lips. She didn’t want
mr to argue with Leo much longer. She felt that the man had his version of social perspective. So, no matter what others said it would never make sense to him.
