Chapter 100
Once this picture was posted, the group chat “Norxton Squad” instantly got an uproar.
Micah asked, [Why do I feel that the woman behind looks a little like somebody’s ex-wife?]
Bryan echoed. What’s going on? You’ve just been divorced for half a year, and now you’re getting back together? Tonight, the Norton girls must be heartbroken.]
Neville curled his lips and typed some words. I’ve said it before. The dog will come back sooner or later when she feels hungry. I’ve exhausted my patience to let her play outside for so long.]
Micah followed, [Neville the Best1]
Bryan said. [Awesome, Neville. Let that woman fall for you!]
At this moment, Madison’s phone rang again. This time, it was a video call from someone with the nickname ‘Sweetie.
Neville immediately frowned and turned the phone on mute. Then, he connected the video and covered the camera with his fingers to prevent his face from being exposed.
He wanted to hide in the dark and see who the other party was to deserve such a nickname from Madison.
What came to his sight was a small face similar to him.
Jeremy had just taken a shower. His hair was wet, and two strands of hair stood up on the top of his head, making him look even more adorable.
When Jeremy saw that his vision was pitch-black, he immediately said unhappily, “Mommy, are you playing hide-and-seek with me? Come our quickly. I miss you so much.”
Neville’s eyes widened. Wasn’t this kid who played a prank on him last time and made him the joke of Norton?
He originally thought that he was Ross’s illegitimate son, but after investigating it carefully, he realized that this was not the
The information showed that the child’s mother was called Blair Cooke. She worked at Sharkfin Technology and was currently divorced and single. She took care of the child alone.
However, he did not know that Madison was so close to Blair and even labeled her son as her sweetie.
Just as he was about to turn up the volume to hear what the kid was talking about, Madison happened to walk out of the kitchen.
He quickly ended the video and deleted the record.
When Madison saw that her phone was held in his hand, she immediately said warily, “Neville, what are you doing just
now?”
Neville pretended to be calm and handed the phone to her. “Your phone fell to the ground. I am just picking it up.”
Madison immediately s a t c h e d the phone over, her heart thumping uncontrollably.
At this time, Jeremy would m ake a video call to her. Just now, Neville was holding her phone. She didn’t know if he had discovered anything.
She only wanted to chase this jinx away as soon as possible, so she pushed him out. “Mr. Preston, now that you’ve had a full
meal. Now that my house is so small and so dilapidated for you, please find somewhere else to have fun.”
Neville was almost pushed out of the door by her
Madison slammed the door shut and left without looking back. She did not even give Neville a chance to speak.
The early autumn night was already cold. When he was chased out, he was only wrapped in a pink towel. He was so cold that his entire body was trembling,
She was indeed a heartless woman. At the very least, he had cooperated with her to act like a couple before her parents for two days. Even if he did not make any contributions, he had indeed worked hard.
His coat and phone were all in her house. Even if he wanted to call the driver to pick him up, he had to get his phone first.
“Madison, open the door!”
Neville almost pounded on the door, but there was no response from inside.
He wrapped the towel around his waist and was about to climb over the wall when a smart voice came from the door. ‘Attention, there’s an intruder. The police will be automatically alerted in three minutes.
Neville looked down at the pink towel at his waist. If the police came here, wouldn’t he become the joke of the entire Norton again? Then the next day he would show in the headlines as a freaky naked
stalker.
However, no matter how hard he knocked, there was still no response.
At this moment, a teasing voice came from behind him. “Neville? Aren’t you busy with your dog? Why are you playing cosplay here?”
Neville immediately took quick steps and straddled into Ryan’s car.
Ryan sized up the pink towel on his waist and teased, “Neville, I have never found it. You look cold like ice but you love such a girlish color. Looks like you’re quite wild.”
Neville suddenly grabbed his collar and said in a commanding tone. “Go get me a set of clothes. If you don’t have them, take off the clothes on you!”
Ryan compromised. “Alright, alright. I still have a spare set of clothes in the trunk, but the size is a little small for you. Sorry for that.”
A moment later, Ryan threw a business suit at him.
Neville quickly put it on. He was a little taller than Ryan. The suit was a little tight on him, almost revealing his muscle lines. His long legs in trousers seemed exposed even if they were covered.
“Neville, if I remember correctly, that’s Miss Guzman’s residence, right?”
Neville did not say anything. So it was a tacit agreement.
Ryan held back his laughter and said, “Weren’t you just exchanging experiences in the group chat on how to let a woman go home carly? How did you get chased out of the house so quickly?”
Neville gritted his teeth and said, “From the beginning to the end, I’ve only been talking about dogs. You’re overthinking!”
Ryan knew that Neville had always been arrogant. He did not expose his failure, but he found it hard to restrain his laughter,
Neville suddenly looked at him coldly. “What are you doing here?”
“Oh, a business friend of mine is coming to stay in Norxton for a while. He specified that he wants to rent a villa in the southern suburbs. So he wants me to help him settle it
Neville’s eyes looked around. “Are there any house for sale here?”
Neville, don’t tell me you want to live next to Miss Guzman?”
Neville snorted coldly. “The environment here is quite good. It’s suitable for morning exercise and night runs.”
Ryan held it in for a long time before saying. “To be honest, Miss Guzman is quite a good woman. It won’t degrade you if you want to get her back.”
“What? Do you mean to get her back Neville, Miss Guzman is a good woman. Even if you have to pursue her again, that won’t? What are you thinking?”
He paused for a moment before continuing. “As you know, I hate trouble the most. Instead of wasting time on matters between relationships, it’s better to talk about more business. I’ve already lived with her for three years. If there is a new one to be my Mrs. Preston, it will inevitably bring many troubles. I can’t adapt to the changes. It’s better to return everything to its original position. Be it for her or me, it seems to be a worry-free choice.”
Ryan was stunned by his blunt words. After a long time, he said, “Have you told Miss Guzman these things?”
“No, of course. I want to let her feel it gradually. If I tell her directly, she must get wild and presumptuous.”
The child’s face suddenly appeared in Neville’s mind. Then, he said, “By the way, didn’t you want me to invest in Sharkfin Technology some time ago? Do you know anyone there?”
“Of course, but I heard that the head of Sharkfin Technology is a divorced woman with a son.”
