Chapter 62 My Ex-Husband’s Mother The moment Maddy reached the office, she saw Jayce walking out of Dion's office with an grim expression and her gaze clearly showed that refused to admit defeat After walking a few steps, Jayce saw her too. She walked closer on high heels and said, “I heard that you were the person Levitan was supposed to support?” Maddy was indifferent, “Maybe.” “Why did you refuse?” “It’s not something you've got by doing your best. I'm afraid | won't be able to sleep at night if | get it.” Maddy did not know what Nate meant by setting up tliis quota. For a moment, they said it’s for Jennie, and for another moment, the official explanation was that Levitan Group appreciated her capabilities She’s not an inexperienced young girl. How can she believe such high-sounding reasons? However, Jayce understood Maddy’s words as she was mocking that she got the chance to go to Paris three years ago not because of her own hard work, but because she snatched hers away.
Jayce said, “Maddy, don’t overestimate yourself. Do you think that if you refuse Levitan Group, you will show how noble and different you are? No designer will give up this opportunity and show their works on international shows” After saying that, Jayce looked at Maddy and smiled, “Oh no, | almost forgot. Three years ago, you gave up the opportunity like this too. A person like you is not worthy to be a designer at all.” After she finished , Maddy said slowly, “If you really feel guilty, you can also don’t take it.” “You are so annoying, talking too much nonsense.” After saying that, Maddy left.
Jayce probably did not expect her to say that. She stood where she was for a few seconds before reacting. She bit her lip tightly, and her face was full of displeasure.

Dion asked, “How is she?” “Maybe she still need stto calm down.” Dion did not usually ask about employee’s personal affairs. He asked Maddy briefly then let her leave.
Maddy beard her colleagues discussing something in hushed tones the moment she stepped out of the office.
Before she could hear clearly, a middle-aged man in a suit appeared in front of her “Miss Jacobs, Madam wants to see you.” Maddy did not realize who tlie Madam he was talking about. Then she saw Ted standing not far behind huim In the meeting room, Ted looked away from the window, “I didn’t expect you to work here.” Maddy sat there, her hands unconsciously clenched together. She was inexplicably nervous. After a while, she heard her voice, “Mrs. Levitan, is there anything you need from me?” Ted glanced at her and said indifferently, “You and Nate have been divorced for a while. As a mother, shouldn't | care for you?” To be honest, Maddy didn’t realize that she was here to care about her and Nate’s untrue marriage. Instead, she seemed to be here to question her.
After a while, she said, “The divorce procedures have been completed. | didn’t take any money, and Mr.
Levitan had no questions.” “Really?” Ted didn’t seem to see any emotion on her face. “But it’s also wise. You won't get anything from him.” Before Maddy could answer, Ted asked again, “How much can you get here every month?” “Mrs. Levitan, I.” “I won't bargain with you either.” Ted took out an envelope from his bag and tossed it on the table. “This is a plane ticket to London and a check worth ten million.” Maddy frowned, “I don’t quite understand what you mean.” Ted smiled. “I know you need money. Weren't you marrying Nate because of money? Or did you think it was too little?” Maddy pursed her lips, “Don’t worry, since I've already divorced with Nate, | won't bother him, and | don’t have the slightest idea of coveting Levitan’s property” “You've misunderstood what | mean.” Ted's tone was cold. “It's none of my business what happens between you and Nate. | want you to never see Terrence again.” Maddy did not expect that her purpose of her trip here was not for Nate but for Terrence. She was slightly surprised, “What?” “| believe you've heard about it too. Terrence is about to get engaged to Cecil soon, but your existence seems to make people uncomfortable. Because you've married into the Levitan Family before, I'm here to talk to you today. Take the money and leave this place. This is good for everyone.” quickly, Maddy calmed down, “Mrs. Levitan, Terrence and | don’t have any relationship whatsoever. | won't take thuis money. Also, I'm sorry to say that Terrence doesn’t like Cecil. There’s no point in looking for me.” “Since he was born into such a family, then luis marriage is not something he can decide. You should know this principle, right?” Maddy’s face turned pale upon hearing this.
The reason why Nate married her at that twas indeed because of his parents, Back then, the Levitan Family wanted a child. And now, what did they want? And if the indifference of Ted to Nate she felt before is just speculation, then what she said today can almost confirmed her speculation.
Ted didn’t care about Nate at all. Whether he married or divorced or any woman, it didn’t seem to have anything to do with her.

The day after tomorrow is my birthday. Calong and tellyour answer at that time.” Maddy was startled. Before she could say no, Ted had already left.
She had never been willing to get in touch with those in the so-called upper-class society. She also knew that none of them had any respect for her. At that time, she was afraid that they would think of every way to humiliate her Ted was clearly aware of this and she even invited her over. This was obviously a trap.
Maddy picked up the envelope on the table and felt a faint pain in her temple.
After leaving the meeting room, Maddy could feel the strange gazes of the people around her.
One of the cameraman’s assistants, who was quite close to her, cover and asked tentatively, “Maddy, who was that just now?” Looking at their expressions, Maddy probably understood something Although she had clarified before, there were still many people in the company saying that she was raised by a wealthy businessman. Now that Ted cto look for her, they must think that it was his wife who cto look for a mistress to kick her ass.
Maddy felt so speechless that she blurted, “She’s my ex-husband’s mother.” The crowd beceven more unconvinced after hearing this.
Regardless of Ted's rich temperament from inside to outside, the bag in her hand is a high-end order of a luxury brand, not a big VIP who has spent tens of millions there and is not qualified to buy.
