Chapter 399 Someone Is Secretly Supporting Him 

Leonard was wrongly accused in this matter. The curses at me had nothing to do with him; he had never been bothered about me. I knew he could not care for me, his ex–wife, I also knew Jack found a team to clear my name and manage the keyboard warriors.

However, Amelia was telling the world that Leonard was protecting me, which was why the police were afraid to do anything worried about the growing attention on the topic. 

Harmon Group’s share price had plummeted. I could imagine how much chaos Harmon Group was in. 

Emma and Jean occasionally came to gossip, but I only treated what they said as a joke 

Amelia hadn’t gotten the situation straight. If she wanted to secure her position, she needed to help Leonard secure his position first. 

However, I never thought Daryl would come and visit me again. He would always appear after every rehab session. 

Even when the bodyguards stopped him with Bernard’s help, he would continue to come and bother me from time to time,

He gritted his teeth as he looked at me. “Don’t you dare think you can escape the law.”
