Chapter 114
What did Ethan say just now?
The Collins family’s ancestral bracelets? That would make things even more interesting.
Alison took a picture and sent it to Ethan’s mother, Briana. At the same time, she exaggerated the fact that Ethan had used the pair of jade bracelets to help Madison out of trouble.
Briana came from a prestigious family and had always wanted Ethan to find a wife also from a noble family of equal social
status.
Briana was always comparing herself to Regina. This was already an open secret.
Just now, Alison had already exposed Madison’s identity as Regina’s ex-daughter-in-law. She believed that Briana’s performance would not disappoint her.
As expected, Briana soon barged into the banquet with several burly bodyguards.
“Who is Madison Guzman?”
Madison turned around and saw a beautiful lady standing in the middle of the hall.
Afraid that she would blow things up, Ethan immediately walked over and whispered, “Mom, why are you here?”
Briar
red, “If I didn’t come here in time, would you have given the Collins family’s heirloom to help that liar b i t c h?”
These words undoubtedly embarrassed Madison. People threw humiliating looks at her.
Ethan frowned and said, “Mother, please show some respect. I did everything willingly. It has nothing to do with Miss Guzman.”
“What? You’re willing to be a fool! I didn’t expect that b i t c h to be so scheming. She even made my son give up the Collins family’s heirloom without hesitation!”
Madison stood up and said, “Mrs. Collins, you keep calling me a b i t c h. Don’t you think someone who does that is the real b i t c h?”
Briana turned around and looked at Madison with a light gaze. She said in a disdainful tone, “I have to admit that you do have a pretty face to seduce men, but the Collins family will never want a divorced w h o r e that was dumped by someone else!”
She turned to Ethan and said, “Son, it’s fine if you’re just having fun with such a pretty sl
ut . But if you take it seriously, I have to do something!”
“Mom, you’ve gone too far!”
Briana’s words were a blatant insult to Madison, Alison felt refreshed and leaned back to watch the show in a comfortable
posture.
When Neville saw that Madison had remained silent, he sneered and said, “Looks like you only have a sharp tongue when you’re arguing with me. Now tha
someone else is slandering you, you don’t even dare to say a word.”
It seemed that he had to help her finish this problem. Briana must be tired of living to dare to insult his woman in public.
Seeing Neville get up, Madison tilted her head and smiled. “Mr. Preston, are you avenging me?”
“The woman I used is always mine. It has nothing to do with anyone else!”
Madison raised her hand to stop him. “No need. I’ve been scolded by your family for so many years. I’m already immune to
these vicious words.”

Regina was even more malicious before they divorced.
Hearing her say this, Neville’s heart was p r i c k e d.
At that time, he didn’t really like Madison. He just felt that it would be a waste not to use a free woman. Moreover, he had paid for it, so he turned a blind eye to Regina and Daisy’s actions.
Now that he thought about the past, Madison must have suffered a lot.
“Are you going to sit back and do nothing?”
“I’m not that kind.”
This was true. Ever since she left him, she had become much more dangerous.
He said with interest, “So what are you going to do?”
“I need you to stand by me.”
Madison met Briana’s gaze and walked straight to her side.
“Mrs. Collins, I think you knew who my ex-husband was before you came, right?”
Briana sneered, “Are you trying to remind everyone of the fact that you were kicked out by the Preston family?”
“Then v
> you think is better, Neville Preston or your son?”
Although Briana thought that her son was the best, she had to admit that Neville was indeed better than Ethan. After all, Neville had already been the heir of the Preston family three years ago, and her son had yet to end this family conflict.
Madison smiled and said, “If you don’t speak, I’ll take it that you tacitly agree that Neville is better than
When Neville heard this, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
He knew that in this woman’s heart, he was thousands of times better than Ethan.
your son.”
Ethan was nobody to her. But as her ex-husband, he had been engraved in Madison’s heart for ten years.
Briana said angrily, “So what? He still dumped you at last! Don’t tell me you’re even proud of it.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Madison smiled and said, “Mrs. Collins, you’re wrong. I was the one who dumped him.”
Immediately, everyone was shocked in an uproar.
How was this possible? Neville was the delusion of all the noble ladies. This woman had neither a deep background nor outstanding ability. It was already a blessing for her to become Mrs. Preston. How could she bear to give up the wealth and glory?
Madison smiled and said, “Why? You don’t believe me?”
She turned to look at Neville, whose handsome face was slightly cold. Then, she h o o k
e d his tie and pulled him in front of
her.
Madison was much shorter than this tall man. When she pulled him down, he had to lower his head slightly and then their
eyes met.
Madison smiled like a vixen, her red lips glistening. “Mr. Preston, can you explain it?”
The two of them were so close that he could almost smell her fragrance. He could ev en touch her lips if he lowered his head slightly.
Neville’s heart started beating uncontrollably.
This woman seemed to have bewitched him. He couldn’t help but give up his bottom line.
He loosened his tie and said in a slightly h o a r e voice, “Yes, you dumped me.”
These words were like a bomb that instantly exploded in the banquet.
It took a long time for the audience to come back to their senses.
They had always treated Madison as the loser of marriage and even mocked her as a clown. But now it turned out that she was the one who asked to end it, while they, the spectators, were the real clown.
Madison frowned. She felt that there was a trace of grievance in this man’s tone.
What was he aggrieved about? She was the victim of this marriage.
Madison let go of his tie and turned to Briana with a smile. “Mrs. Collins, listen carefully. I can even give up on a man like Neville. Why would I pester your son?”
Briana felt as if she had been slapped hard in the face. She was so angry that her entire body was trembling. “Then what do you have to bewitch my son to use our heirloom to help you out!”
Madison seemed to have come a realization. Then, she instructed the staff, “Please return the jade bracelets to Mrs.
Collins.”
The staff immediately walked over with a tray.
Madison glanced at it and sneered. “The Collins family’s heirloom is just something ordinary.”
Briana sneered and said, “No! You’re just jealous. After all, a woman from an abject family like you has never seen the real good things. It’s not an exaggeration to tell you that even if you seduced a hundred men, you might not be able to exchange for this pair of jade bracelets.”
A cold light flashed in Madison’s eyes. “Is that so?”
She suddenly picked up the jade bracelets and clicked them gently. They let out a crisp sound and shattered instantly.
