Chapter 24 He Guessed It Right!
Five years ago, an unexpected incident bound her and Halsey together, leading the Hudson and Greene families to establish a mutually beneficial situation.
However, the Hudson family was dissatisfied. They deemed she had disgraced the family as a wealthy heiress had used such a disgraceful means.
During that time, the Hudson family became a subject of ridicule with whispers behind their backs. Margot did not even dare to return home, knowing she would face criticism and scolding.
But now, when she wanted a divorce, they refused. Why has it become harder to please them now?

Maggie’s expression turned solemn, and she said. “He might be suspicious of you.”
“What do we do now! Margot panicked and asked.
She never expected Halsey to be so sharp. They had only met here, yet he already doubted her identity. Is my disguise not good

If he had been 30% suspicious carlier, he was 70% now. If he was not mistaken, she had just picked up the phone, and shortly after, his phone buzzed. It’s such a clumsy trick!

She handed him a business card and said, “Here’s my name card. You can contact me
the next month.”
“Move aside, Halsey said, his alluring eyes flickering with cold light as he glanced at Maggie without warmth, Maggie’s frosty expression grew colder as she said, “Mr. Greene, as I said, Miss Magnolia is unavailable…”
“Margot, you’re quite a good actress,” Halsey said coldly, his gaze fixed on the woman’s back. He was not in the mood to beat around the bush with Maggie
