Capturing the Millionaire’s Heart on Divorce Day novel Chapter 44

Chapter 0044 

Lucas had heard this voice before during a red carpet interview. 

Yet, Lucas still could not believe that Madison managed to rope in the chairman of Mukino International. 

He figured Madison must have used some cunning tricks to get herself involved because she knew he would be attending the red 

carpet event with Sophia. 

And just to show off her presence! 

At this moment, Lucas refused to believe that the man across him. was Ethan, even if he recognized the voice. He assumed Madison must have exchanged something to get this outcome. 

So, Lucas boldly questioned, “Do you realize that Madison is my 

wife?” 

Ethan glanced at the woman staring at him and chuckled, “I had idea.” 

He was curious about what kind of outrageous things Lucas could 

say. 

“Oh?” Lucas, seeming to have grasped something, continued to press, “What did Madison give you to play this act with her? Or is Madison your lover now?” 

Ethan, caught by surprise, paused, “Lover?” 

He wouldn’t mind that. 

Ethan laughed, “Mr. Lucas, you overestimate me.” 

Lucas was puzzled, “Aren’t you Ethan?” 

“Yes, I am.” 

Ethan returned to his seat across the table, where Madison was calmly eating her meal. 

Who could imagine such a scene? 

Ethan, the chairman of Mukino International, helping his employee deal with her soon-to-be ex-husband? 

In the past, Ethan would never have considered such a thing. 

He would never meddle with a woman who was married or 

committed to someone else. 

Even if he was deeply attracted, he wouldn’t show any interest. 

This was his principle and his limit. 

But now, Ethan not only did it, but he also enjoyed it. 

Did this mean that in Madison’s eyes, his relationship with her was much closer than with Lucas? 

Ethan softened his tone at this thought, “I am Ethan. But I still 

believe… 

“I don’t deserve Madison.” 

Madison, caught off guard, looked up from her meal. She seemed to forget how to chew, staring blankly at the man before her. 

On the other end of the phone, Lucas struggled to breathe in his fury, “You… Are you really Ethan?” 

He had thought Madison was playing a trick on him with a random 

man. 

How could Madison possibly know someone of such high social 

status?!

At this moment, Lucas was convinced that Madison must have 

cheated on him! 

“Mr. Grant.” Lucas’ tone suddenly improved, “Madison is my wife. Do you think this is appropriate? Aren’t you afraid of the public accusing you of meddling in other people’s marriages? And with your status, being with a second-hand woman…” 

Ethan abruptly interrupted, his eyebrows furrowing, “Where are you?” 

Lucas naively thought Ethan wanted to discuss the matter in person. 

Considering the important points he had just made, Lucas quickly gave him his address. 

Once he got the address, Ethan smoothly hung up the phone, then took out his phone to send a WeChat message to Michael. 

Caught off guard by the sudden end of the call, Madison put down her cutlery, “You just…” 

Ethan continued eating, “Hmm?” 

He was playing dumb. 

“You know what I’m asking.” Madison said coldly. 

Ethan slowly nodded, “Hmm.” 

What did he mean by ‘hmm’? 

Madison was confused, but she didn’t know how to ask. 

What did he mean by ‘I don’t deserve Madison’? 

Did something happen between them? 

“What you heard is what it is.” Ethan didn’t elaborate, fearing it might 

scare her.

Madison then assumed Ethan was just trying to agitate Lucas. 

After all, he seemed to have witnessed everything that had happened between her and Lucas. 

“Take a look.” 

A contract appeared on the dining table. 

Madison picked it up and flipped through a few pages. 

It was a contract agreement. 

She would sign with Mukino International as a captain for one year. 

“All pilots at Mukino Air sign a one-year contract. Here, you have – absolute freedom. If you feel it’s not right for you, you can leave at any time. If fate allows, we’ll work together again.” When Ethan talked about work, his seriousness was a stark contrast to Lucas. 

Madison had seen Lucas’ arrogant demeanor at work. 

But not Ethan. 

He took into account the employees first in every condition. His tone was moderate, showing his consideration. 

Who else could succeed if not him? 

Madison pointed to a part of the fourth page, “Is the annual salary signed here three million eight hundred thousand?” 

That was way too high. 

Even the captains at Air China only got around one million eight hundred thousand, including all kinds of subsidies. 

She didn’t want Ethan to give her any special treatment. 

Over time, people might start to question her professional
