Capturing the Millionaire’s Heart on Divorce Day novel Chapter 49

Chapter 0049 

Fresh off a divorce and already the target of a corporate president’s courtship? 

Isn’t that kind of fantasy best left to the pages of a novel? 

Madison was at a loss for words, unable to respond in the heat of the moment. Thankfully, Ethan, ever the empathetic man, didn’t press her for an answer. He was simply conveying his feelings, and he knew she understood. 

Their car was parked on the street, with other vehicles keeping a respectful distance-not due to anything, except for the astronomical repair costs if they so much as scratched Ethan’s expensive ride. 

As they crossed the intersection, Ethan said, “I’m taking you home.” 

Those four words were laden with an indescribable promise. 

Madison didn’t overthink it. Once the car stopped, she prepared 

enter the mansion. 

No sooner had she stepped inside, than a series of handheld fireworks burst into life, showering her with a cascade of sparks and 

confetti. 

Stunned, she watched familiar faces emerge. 

Michael and William, and… Jessica. 

It had been years since she’d seen Jessica, who had changed quite a 

bit. 

She didn’t particularly resemble Ethan, except for their shared tall 

stature. 

1/0 

Jessica, nearly Madison’s height, exhibited a serene composure, whereas Madison was the embodiment of vivacity and cheer. 

Jessica’s greeting was loud and enthusiastic as she hugged the dazed Madison, “My goddess, congratulations on your joyful divorce!” 

She’d heard about Madison’s situation from her big brother but had never pried. 

Personal matters should stay private, and anyway, it’s not usually a cheerful topic, so it’s best left alone. 

But from today, no more need for secrecy! 

Stunned, Madison asked, “Jessica, you’re back? Didn’t you say… 

“Surprise! Are you surprised or what?” Jessica cradled her face. 

“Surprised.” 

As emotions welled up, Madison finally hugged Jessica back. 

They met at the flight academy, enduring the toughest times together. Even though their paths diverged, they never cut ties. 

And now, they reconnected in such an extraordinary way. Mad was both surprised and grateful. 

Jessica pulled Madison inside, “I’ve been waiting here for Happy to be single again, right?” 

you. 

Any lingering gloom instantly dissipated, and Madison nodded with a smile, “Happy.” 

“By the way, big bro, can I fly with Madison’s air…” Jessica blurted out before realizing her slip-up, but it was already too late.. 

Ethan’s gaze settled pensively upon her. 

Madison’s eyes moved back and forth between Jessica and Ethan.

Big brother? 

The cigarette Ethan was holding seemed to tremble like Jessica under scrutiny. 

He pinched it lightly, and it broke. 

Jessica inhaled deeply, “Um…” 

“Are you siblings?” Madison asked first. 

Jessica had mentioned being ‘particularly acquainted’ with someone from Mukino International, and they both shared the last name Jiang. 

Ethan knew he couldn’t hide it any longer, and frankly admitted, “Yes, she’s my sister.” 

As he confessed, the living room fell silent. 

They expected Madison to be upset. 

After all, keeping this from her could suggest a lack of trust. 

To their surprise, Madison turned to Jessica, “Why did you pret to be poor when you were at school?” 

Jessica: “…” 

Aren’t you supposed to be questioning my brother??? 

Goddess, why are you asking me?! 

Ethan hadn’t expected that, but seeing his sister’s expression, he 

explained, “She was afraid of being targeted for her wealth, so she kept it a secret.” 

Madison nodded in understanding. 

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at her lack of further questions. 

The lunch table was already laden with a bountiful spread.

Madison sat next to Jessica, with Ethan naturally pairing up with Michael, and William sat alone. 

At the table, Jessica chatted nonstop, filling Madison in on the recent years. Madison listened intently, laughing and nodding along. 

Jessica coaxed her into drinking too. 

The three men frowned as the two women downed glass after glass. 

“How come I didn’t know you could drink like this?” Ethan frowned. 

Jessica’s cheeks flushed, “I’m a product of the flight academy! Did you know we had alcohol tolerance tests? If you didn’t have a good capacity, you had to build it up! It’s to ensure nobody’s incapacitated by a single drink in case of emergencies.” 

So Madison can hold her liquor too? 

More than just that! 

Jessica was tipsy, yet Madison, seated beside her, remained as composed as when she first sat down, resting her chin in her always appearing deeply engaged in the conversation. 

Madison excused herself to the restroom midway. 

With Jessica slightly inebriated, her speech became disjointed, “Le me tell you, don’t underestimate my goddess. She looks gentle and reserved, but she’s fearless. All of you combined couldn’t outdrink her! Hic…” 

The men she pointed at didn’t respond but exchanged knowing glances. 

Jessica probably wasn’t boasting about the drinking. 

As for the other claims, well, that remained to be seen. 

The group enjoyed a relaxed meal, but all the while, Madison felt an 

intense gaze fixed on her. No matter how she tried, she couldn’t escape it.
