Ex-husband Unmasked He’s a Billionaire?

Chapter 10

Chapter 10 The sound of the call being hung up made Madison stomp her feet in frustration.

That bastard Cameron actually hung up on her! Still upset, Madison dialed his number again. It was swiftly answered, but this time Cameron was clearly irritated. “Are you done?”

“Watch your attitude, Cameron!” Madison yelled, face red with rage. “First you stole my mother’s bracelet, then you hurt my brother, and now you dare hang up on me?”

“| stole your mother’s bracelet? That bracelet was given to me by my mother to be worn by my future wife. There’s nothing wrong with me retrieving it after our divorce.”

“You're such a miser, demanding a stupid bracelet back after giving it away!” “Yeah, I’m the poorest of the poor,” Cameron drawled, not wanting to argue with Madison anymore.

“So you admit it? My mother told me you went to my house in a Maybach. Do you seriously think I’d have a change of heart to go back to you because you rented a Maybach? In your dreams, Cameron Morgan!”

“Me? Rent a Maybach? For you?” Cameron snickered. “Please don’t be so vain for once.” “Then why did you rent the car?” Madison asked sarcastically. “How is that any of your business?” Cameron responded flatly.

“You!” Madison scowled. “Alright, | won’t argue with you on that, Cameron. Now tell me what you plan to do now that you hurt my brother!”

“| hurt him because he deserved it,” Cameron said coldly. “You-how dare you? He’s the sole male in my family!” Madison yelled.

“So your brother is worth caring about but not me? | deserve to be insulted and smashed in the hand by a vase without complaint, yes?” Cameron retorted darkly, somewhat angry because of Madison's words.

“Exactly right!” Madison said sternly.

“How barbaric,” Cameron sneered and continued, “Since all of you are so obstinate, then don’t say | didn’t warn you-tell your mother and brother to back off, or else it won't just be broken arms next time.”

Cameron then hung up the call.

“Jackass!” Madison cussed angrily after being hung up on yet again.

When she called Cameron a third time, the call no longer went through. Cameron had blocked her.

Madison was so angry she nearly smashed her phone into the ground.

Not only did Cameron threaten her, he even blocked her? How dare he?

“Just you wait, Cameron Morgan!” Madison ground out. She took a deep breath before returning to the ward. “How'd it go, Madison?” Pia asked, concerned.

“That bastard hung up on me! But he did say you guys insulted him and that Skyler tried to hit him with a vase. Is that true?” Madison asked.

Pia felt guilty for a moment but quickly said, “Don’t believe his lies. We didn’t do anything! He’s the one who barged into the house. Skyler was only defending us!”

“Heh, | knew that bastard was lying. Does he really think | won’t see through his trick of renting a car to try and win me back?” Madison scoffed.

“The car was a rental?” Pia’s eyes widened briefly. She then sighed. “I knew it. That kid couldn’t possibly get so rich in such a short amount of time!”

“Mom, how could he be rich if he’s even trying to get back a crusty old bracelet he gave me?” Madison scowled. “C-can we get that bracelet back, Madison?” Pia asked.

“It's just a lousy old bracelet, Mom. | can just get you a new one. Here, there’s one million dollars in this card. The passcode is my birthday. Go buy yourself a nicer bracelet and some nice food for Skyler,” Madison said as she handed a bank card to Pia.

“You're too kind, Madison!” Pia immediately forgot about the bracelet after knowing there was a million dollars in the card. What was more important than money?Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“We're family, after all,” Madison said kindly.

“Oh,” Pia sighed dramatically just then, saying, “I don’t really mind losing the bracelet. What I’m concerned about is you.” “Concerned about me?” Madison was taken aback.

“Yes. I’m worried Cameron will continue bugging you,” Pia said, putting up an act again. “Besides demanding his things, he even said he’d continue lingering around you until you agree to remarry him, or until you compensate with him ten million dollars!”

“How dare that bastard say that?” Madison was infuriated.

“What couldn't he do at this point, Madison? He threatened me and even hurt your brother. That’s why you should hurry up and settle down with Mr. Price. Only then, Cameron will finally give up,” Pia said.

She was using this opportunity to hit the nail on the head. Archie just happened to be present today too.

“Yeah, Maddy,” Skyler piped up. If his sister were to marry into the Price family, he could brag about it to all of his friends! “Mom, don’t say that in front of Mr. Price...” Madison said shyly.

“I'm just worried about you, dear. | don’t want you to pass a fine young man like Mr. Price by,” Pia said earnestly, glancing towards Archie in the process. “Thank you so much for taking care of Maddy all this while, Mr. Price. | apologize for what you had to see here, it really is embarrassing.”

“Nonsense, ma’am. It’s that Cameron fella who didn’t know what’s good for him,” Archie replied courteously. “What do you think about Maddy, Mr. Price?” Pia asked. “| think Madison is very gentle and capable,” Archie praised.

“Hehe, then why don’t you consider getting the marriage settled as soon as possible, Mr Price? That way Cameron can give up sooner and stop bothering Madison,” Pia suggested with a grin.

Archie internally snorted. How could he not tell Pia’s intentions? The old woman was only trying to use his family to fuel a life of power and wealth for herself.

But Archie was attracted to Madison’s sensuality and potential. She must have some strength to her if she was able to develop her company into the billion-dollar success it was today in a mere five years, not to mention being in the list of top ten outstanding businessmen in Yrando.

What was more important was the fact that her company was in partnership with many of the capital’s major companies. That was Archie’s goal—to use Madison’s advantage and expand his family’s power.

Once they were married, Archie could naturally combine his family’s business with Madison’s. Then, they could slowly partner with the companies from the capital. Madison would then be nothing more than a used ragdoll to be discarded whenever Archie pleased. He would've had his fill of her by then anyway.

Archie’s ambitions had never been restricted to a small city like Yrando. Nor was he going to truly commit himself to a marriage with a divorcee. His goal was to marry one of those heiresses from Leving’s powerful families!

Madison was nothing more than a stepping stone for his goals. Why else would Archie have spent so much effort on her?
