Unfortunately, Sally did not know.
Sally could not see Leo's ferocious expression through the phone. She was only concerned about her interests.
Sally was so anxious that she was about to cry and spoke incoherently. "Leo, someone framedwith the video at the wedding last night. Yes! Someone framed me. It was Madison. Do you remember Joe, who was close to Madison? Joe Daves from XR Entertainment. His brother was a hacker. Madison asked him to broadcast those videos at our wedding. You can't do this to me...' Leo was having a headache. He pressed his fingers to his temples in an attempt to ease it.
When Leo heard Joe's name, he suddenly froze. The coldness in his eyes intensified. Joe was the one who stole Madison away. The ruthlessness in Leo's dark eyes could no longer be suppressed.
|| Leo interrupted Sally mercilessly. His tone was cold. "Sally, so what if that video was made by Madison? Does it not feature you and another man? How can you tellso boldly that I shouldn't have treated you like this?" It was already generous of him not to cut off the Hale family's source of income. How much more could she push her luck? How benevolent was he to make Sally think he would ignore the past and continue to marry her? Leo was someone who would seek revenge for the slightest grievance. He had been since he was young.
Otherwise, Leo would not have gone against his grandfather and mother back then. He would not have been petty enough to ignore Madison for three years because Madison blocked him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeo was vengeful, petty, and had a lot of flaws. The noble, gentlemanly demeanor that outsiders saw was just his disguise. Leo had always believed that children were born evil because he was such a person.
In the past, when Leo was deceived by Sally, he was willing to put her first and protect her. But now, what right did Sally have to ask for the streatment? Sally was already frightened by his tone. Leo's cold voice made her think she was talking to the masked man. Be it his voice or tone, they were so similar.
The suffocating memory of being strangled also came, making her mind go blank. Sally could not think for a moment.
Leo's voice cagain. "Sally, don't say anything bad about Madison in front ofagain. Even if Madison did something to let you down, you deserve it." Sally should have known that retribution would cone day when she left a wound on Madison.
What Leo had done to help Sally during this thad now rebounded back to him. The person who had been by his side all this thad been lost by him. Whenever Leo thought of Madison being by with another man, he would feel vexed.
His irritation was enhanced by Sally's crying on the other end of the phone. "Leo, when did you becso indiscriminate? Back then, when I did something wrong, you didn't helpat all. You accusedin front of the police and sentto the detention center. Now that it's Madison, you're saying that I deserve it?" "Are you even worthy of comparing to Madison?" Leo sneered and his eyes turned cold. "Sally, not to mention that you're not worthy, even if you can be compared to Madison, are the videos at the wedding fake? Did someone force you to do that kind of thing? Did someone force you to do whatever you have done in the past, including the tyou were sent to the detention center?" Before Madison returned to the country, Sally was still under Palmer Group's protection and could do whatever she wanted in the entertainment industry.
Even when she was forced to leave the industry, Leo still allowed Sally to use the power of the Palmer family to intimidate others. And what about Sally? She went ahead to vent her physical desires.
It was only because Leo was dumb that he could only see what kind of person Sally was after someone put the video out in the open.
On the other end of the line, Sally was completely stunned by Leo's words. What did she hear? Did Leo say she could not be compared to Madison? That she was not worthy of being mentioned alongside that bitch Madison? How was she not worthy? But before Sally could retort, Leo warned, "You better behave yourself." Then the call was hung up.
There was only the busy tone in her ears. When Sally tried to call again, she only heard a mechanical busy tone.
Sally was blocked by Leo. How could Leo block her? Sally couldn't believe it. She called again and again. It was still the smechanical voice.
"Bitch! Madison, that bitch!" Sally was so angry that she threw her phone away and threw a huge temper in the car.
No, Sally refused to believe that Leo would treat her like that.
Sally had spent so much tand effort to push Madison away from Leo. She had spent so much effort to claim Madison's efforts for herself. How could she be abandoned by Leo so easily? Sally didn't believe it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeo must have been careless and would let her out of the blacklist in a while.
Sally picked up the phone with trembling hands. The ringing of the phone made her happy. It must be Leo calling her. It had to be. Leo would forgive her. He had forgiven her for so many wrongdoings. What would one more tmatter? Without looking at who was calling, Sally hurriedly answered the call.
Angry curses could be heard the noment the phone was answered. Sally, what did you do? Did you go o Lego Do you know that all the companies that collaborated with he Hale family withdrew their nvestments and quit their collaborations? Our family is going >ankrupt!" ¡wRichard's furious voice cfrom the phone. It was deafening.
Sally, who was scolded, did not react for a moment and was stunned. "W-What did you say?" "What did I say? I was so loud. Didn't you hear me? I said you brought bad luck to us and made us go bankrupt!" Richard spat out all kinds of foul and vicious words at Sally, listing all the wrongdoings she had done.
Ever since Sally returned to the Hale family, she had created mess after mess. The servants were changed repeatedly, and even their relationship with the Palmer family had worsened.
Now, the Palmer family broke off their cooperation with the Hale family, then the other companies followed suit.
How was Richard going to live? Richard had single-handedly expanded the Hale family's company and was about to make a steady profit without the Palmer Group's support. Who would have thought that all the efforts would cto nothing? If it wasn't for Sally messing around outside, how could this happen? How was this possible? "Why should I be blamed?" Sally was also on a breakdown. Her eyes were bloodshot as she held her phone and cursed Richard. If Sally hadn't been coaxing Leo all these years, how could Richard have made the Hale family stronger? When Richard used her, it was only natural. Now that he was implicated, the mistake was hers? When Sally was in the entertainment industry, didn't she fund the company with the money she earned? Now that the company had gone bankrupt, he blamed her for bringing bad luck. How dare Richard do that to her? 'Why should they blme for e everything? Bitches. They are all bitches! Madison is one, and so are all of them!' she thought feare Sally drove on the road with bloodshot eyes. She ignored the traffic lights and stepped on the accelerator. Sally looked at the crowd waiting at the pedestrian crossing not far away and a sinister smile appeared on her face. 'Go to hell! Go to hell, all of you!' she thought.
Bang! After a loud crash, black smoke ignited on the road.
A noisy buzzing sound surrounded Sally. She seemed to see blood flowing everywhere, blurring her eyes. She scoffed. 'Let's all go to hell.'
