Capturing the Millionaire’s Heart on Divorce Day -
Chapter 70
Chapter 0070
Ethan took a step back, creating a distance between them, a sly twinkle in his eyes: “I heard that Director Qin’s wife is quite fierce?”
Sophia’s face drained of color instantly, her eyes revealing an
unmistakable panic.
Only after the man sauntered away did she slide down against the wall to the floor.
How could she have impulsively tried to seduce Ethan!!!
or Qin had warned her, stay away from Ethan, he’s too ruthless,
redictable!
ia was terrified, what to do…
ald Ethan really tell Director Qin?
Or Lucas?
In turmoil, Sophia scrambled up and dashed out.
Madison was in the car when her phone rang.
“Captain Madison.” It was William.
“Secretary Bai.”
“Where are you now? President Grant asked you to stop by where we are.” William mentioned a location.
Madison glanced at Jessica beside her, who was merrily scrolling through videos, “Alright.”
After hanging up, she said, “Your brother wants us to stop by where

they are.”
“Sure.” Jessica showed her phone to Madison: “Look, your video has
gone viral.”
Madison was stunned: “…Viral?”
“Yeah, the comments are all praising your looks, and some people
want to fly with our airline.” Jessica chuckled: “A goddess is a
goddess, beloved wherever she goes.”
Some people are just born blind.
But Madison had other thoughts about this, as she didn’t like the idea of sensationalizing such matters online.
Saving passengers was her duty as a captain, and besides, it could ause unnecessary complications for her future work.
Can this video be taken down?” Madison inquired.
Jessica pondered for a moment: “You don’t want it?”
Madison nodded subtly.
Understanding Madison a bit more, Jessica quickly surmised the reason, “I’ll talk to my brother later, have someone take down this video from the internet.”
Putting away her phone, Jessica was particularly curious: “I’ve always wondered, everyone seeks fame and fortune, and many people want to go viral these days for more money-making opportunities. Why do you dislike all that? Is it just because you’re inherently upright?”
Madison responded with a question of her own: “Who told you I’m inherently upright?”
“Do I need someone to tell me?” Jessica spread her hands, “I can feel it from your actions.”

Madison suddenly leaned closer, “Have you seen ‘The Legend of
Sword and Fairy 3′?”
“Of course.”
“You know about the Evil Sword Immortal?”
“Yep.”
Madison’s gaze shifted subtly, revealing a cryptic smile to Jessica: ” Everyone harbors evil thoughts, so do I. I just choose to keep them hidden, not wanting them to destroy me.”
The callousness at the core of a person isn’t considered evil.
t, it’s merely a means of action.
it is an evil thought?
other words, it’s desire, all kinds of desires.
Who can truly not love money?
Jessica watched her intently for a long time, feeling a strange tingling sense.
In that fleeting moment, it was as if she had a vision of Madison unleashing all her evilness one day.
That would be…
Terrifying.
The taxi stopped at the location given by William, outside an eight- story grand banquet hall, its facade encircled with dim lights.
“What’s my brother doing here?” Jessica asked William as they got out of the car.

William, hands clasped in front of him, smiled in reply: “President Grant had a small gathering, it’s just finished now, he’s coming out.”
As he spoke, Madison’s peripheral vision caught a man stepping out from the dimly lit entrance of the banquet hall.
One hand in his pocket, the other holding a cigarette, followed by two sharply dressed men.
Several others seemed to be seeing him off.
Quite the entourage…
Ethan had been drinking. He waved them off casually, “Head back.”
e others bowed respectfully, “Take care on the road, President
ant.”
Ethan turned around, his gaze fell upon Madison standing in the nt breeze.
He snuffed out his cigarette, a bodyguard taking it away with ease.
The man approached steadily, and as he drew closer, Madison saw his figure grow larger in her eyes.
Halting half a step away, Ethan gave her a once-over, then chuckled lightly, “Let’s go, head home.”
His gesture to take her hand was all too natural.
Before Madison could gather her thoughts, the car had already started.
Jessica joined William in the car behind.
“You asked us to get out just to wait for you?” Madison asked.
Ethan, leaning to the side, glanced over at her.

His eyes were deep; narrow-lidded yet piercing, a soft chuckle escaping his lips: “Yeah.”
Just wanted to see her, then wait for her to go back together.
“How much did you drink?” Madison noticed something off in his
gaze.
“I don’t know.” Ethan didn’t open the window, afraid the wind would hasten his inebriation, “Wasn’t in a good mood, so I drank a few more.
Not in a good mood?
Madison hesitated before asking, “What happened?”
Ethan kept his eyes on her, the smile deepening, slightly hazy, his voice low: “Worried about me?”
“Tch.” Madison frowned, “Are you going to tell me?”
“Yes.”
Ethan shifted, loosening his tie, “I met someone.”
Madison awaited details.
“That woman, Sophia.”
Madison’s eyelid twitched, impulsively asking, “And then?”
“She actually tried to seduce me, which is unbelievable.”
Madison blinked, “…Did you use the wrong word?”
Shouldn’t the phrase be ‘shameless’ or ‘brazen’?
Ethan, hand behind his head, squinted, “Unbelievable indeed. Where does her confidence come from?”

Then, came the self-deprecating remarks from the aviation mogul himself: “Not as pretty as you, not in shape like you, not as educated, not as capable. Her confidence is truly unbelievable.”
Madison turned her face towards the window, “I’m at a loss for words.”
Ethan paused, then unexpectedly laughed out loud. Sitting up straight, he lowered the privacy partition, leaning towards Madison-
“Madison.”
She turned her eyes towards him.
re you teasing me at Nianzhou Airport?”
adison blinked, “No.”
“Say it again.”
“I wasn’t.”
“I’m not looking to pursue it.”
Madison raised an eyebrow.
Ethan’s smile reached his eyes, now clearly drunk: “Could you tease
me once more?”
As the words fell, he felt a cool touch on his forehead.
“Still not recovered from the fever?” Madison asked earnestly.
Ethan silently gazed at her.
Madison pursed her lips into a faint smile, withdrawing her hand and leaning forward slightly.
Their proximity mirrored the moment at Nianzhou Airport.
In a soft whisper, she offered, “Shall I help cool you down?”
