My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise novel Chapter 209

It rained heavily during the night in Sidovor City, the rain pelting against the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Leo woke up in the storm. He was in a daze. After knowing that he could not fall back to sleep, he got out of bed and stood in front of the window, staring blankly at the night view of the city.

Since he divorced Madison, he stayed at the company. Occasionally, he would return to the Palmer family's residence for a few days. Most of the time, he worked.

He saw Madison again in his dream.

Leo should have forgotten about her long ago, but Madison kept appearing in his dreams repeatedly. He could not get rid of her. It was as though they were entangled. 'Why...' he thought.

Leo looked at the rain slowly running down the windows in rivulets. His mind was screaming in confusion. Why did he dream of her again and again?

He closed his eyes and tried to meditate, focusing the sound of rain outside.

But involuntarily, Leo thought of that rainy night in the family residence.

It was as though the skies had opened up and heavy rain poured down from above that night. It was different from the sound of the rain tonight. Lightning flashed, and a fragrant warmth burrowed into his arms...

Leo suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were still filled with confusion and disbelief. He actually...

Compared to the disgusting scene in the hotel during the day, he could feel that he was not disgusted when he thought of Madison. In fact, he was unwilling to open his eyes and wanted to get lost in it.

It was fine in the dream, but why was he thinking about Madison when he was lost in his thoughts...

A trace of anger flashed across Leo's face. He turned around in frustration and went to get a bottle of ice water. As the cold water entered his stomach, the burning desire in him vanished.

Leo had been sleeping since the afternoon after taking the medicine. It was only when he woke up suddenly just now that he did not feel sleepy at all.

He picked up the phone he had thrown in the corner of the couch and returned to his usual coldness. The phone screen lit up, showing it was four in the morning.

Leo had not looked at his phone the entire night, and there were many messages left for him. There were also many missed calls. There were even messages sent to him, afraid that he would not be able to see them.

Most of the calls were from Ramona. This time, Sally disappeared completely.

Maya had called twice, but Leo did not pick up, so she texted him on WhatsApp. She said that Amber had woken up. Other than her blood pressure being a little high, there was nothing wrong.

As for the other messages, most of them were about the company.

A small number of people came to ask him how he was doing. They might not be concerned, but they were there to laugh at him. There were even bold people who directly introduced him to a new candidate for a wife and sent Leo photos to ask if he liked them.

Leo only felt a headache coming on and turned off his phone.

The frustration he had suppressed vaguely rose with the onset of the headache. He pressed his temples to try to ease it, but the familiar face appeared in his mind again when he closed his eyes. He was so shocked that he suddenly opened his eyes.

The rain outside the window gradually lessened. Other than the occasional sound of rain hitting the windows, it was quiet.

His five senses were also magnified at night. Leo sat alone in the empty and dark room. Some thoughts that had been suppressed in the day quietly rose in the darkness.

As he held his breath, a thought suddenly formed in Leo's mind. He missed Madison.

Leo used to think that he would never miss anyone.

When his grandfather passed away and was buried, he did not shed a single tear. Now that three years had passed, he had never thought of his grandfather who had brought him up and educated him. In fact, his memories of his grandfather had gradually faded.

Leo was cold-hearted and had always been selfish. He was a very shrewd businessman and had never been a good person. That was Leo's evaluation of himself.

Leo had done his duty by his grandfather. If he was a good person, why would he think that it was normal for people to fall sick and die? It was natural for his grandfather to pass since he was old.

Leo was a rotten person through and through. No one loved him, so he chose to marry someone who loved him, even if she schemed for his money.

But it was a rotten man like him who missed his ex-wife on a rainy night.
