Chapter 99
“Leo…”
Sally followed Leo quickly.
Sally did not bother about the fact that Madison had called the police. She only regretted that she did not manage to stab Madison. Instead, she injured Leo.
“Ramona, now that you know you have not taught your daughter well. Are you still planning to do nothing?”
When Leo heard the commotion behind him, he paused for a moment and looked coldly at Richard and Ramona.
Regardless of whether the couple was listening to him or not, he did not stay any longer. Seeing that Madison was about to leave the villa, he did not waste any more time but ran after Madison.
Sally wanted to go after them, but Ramona stopped her angrily.
“Sally, haven’t you created enough trouble tonight?” Ramona lowered her voice and said. angrily.
Richard glared at Sally with resentment in his eyes. He blamed her for failing to meet his expectations.
Richard did not want to look at Ramona and Sally anymore. Instead, he turned to the guests who had yet to leave. “I’m really sorry. I have failed to teach my daughter well, and she has made a fool of herself tonight. I’m afraid we can’t continue with this banquet tonight. If there’s nothing else, please leave. We have to deal with Sally’s mistake and clean up her mess.”
Richard sounded very polite, hence the guests did not mock him in front of everyone. They only sighed slightly and started to leave.
Richard also sighed, looking helpless.
Then he added a few words, “Hopefully everyone here will understand and forgive the Hale family. We didn’t get to enjoy the banquet tonight. However, I hope everyone will remember that what we have discussed in the business world has nothing to do with what happened tonight. Just treat this as nothing more than a drama. If there’s a chance next time, I’ll treat everyone to another banquet!”
The people in the business world were all smart and understood what Richard meant. They all smiled and left with their families.
Chapter 99
The meaning behind Richard’s words was also very obvious.
Although such a big commotion had happened tonight, it would naturally have a huge impact on the Hale family’s reputation. If word got out, Sally would definitely not be able to survive in the entertainment industry anymore.
However, it was still a matter of the upper-class circle. As long as the guests did not say anything, Sally would still be able to survive in the entertainment industry.
The guests would listen to Richard as their business connections had already been established in the business world. Although the marriage between Leo and Sally might not happen after this commotion, after so many years, the Hale family and the Palmer family had long been connected. The two families were collaborating on many projects.
Furthermore, the contracts for these projects had been signed long ago. Would Leo stop collaborating with the Hale family? He would incur losses if he did that.
It was impossible for Leo to stop collaborating with the Hale family.
That was why Richard dared to say those words, gently reminding the guests not to say anything.
Most people felt indignant, but they also understood this principle and knew what to say and what not to say.
Moreover, it was a matter between the Hale family and the Palmer family. It had nothing to do with them.
They did not really feel sorry for Madison. If they were so compassionate, how could they have achieved their present positions in the business market?
After the crowd left, only Richard, Ramona, and Sally were in the villa.
Sally recalled the scenes at the banquet and looked at the bloodstains on the ground. Only then did she feel afraid.
“Mom, what should we do now? If that sl ut really calls the police, my career will be ruined!”
Sally looked anxiously at Ramona.
Richard snorted and roared, “Oh, you are afraid now! What were you thinking about just now? You even tried to stab Madison in front of so many people. You are i crazy!”
really
If Sally harmed Madison without people knowing, she must have a plan. However, she was st upid enough to raise her knife in front of so many people. When Richard thought of that scene, he was really angry but frightened too.

Chapter 99
He thought, ‘How on earth did Ramona give birth to such a stu pid girl?”
Sally felt aggrieved. Ever since she returned to the Hale family, Richard and Ramona had always loved and supported her. They had never raised their voices at her.
Just thinking about it made her angry. Sally said to Richard, “What right do you have to criticize me? If it weren’t for your
incompetence, would I have gone to argue with Madison? Also, isn’t the Hale family business prospering over the years all thanks to me? If it weren’t for me, would Leo allow you to participate in the projects? You’re lucky I you gave birth to a capable daughter like me. It is bad enough you didn’t protect me, yet you scolded me!”
that
Richard was furious. He pointed at Sally’s nose and said, “You! You ingrate!”
Ramona tried to mediate and got Sally to stand behind her.
“Alright, alright. After creating the scene for outsiders just now, do both of you still want to fight here? The most important thing now is to think about what to do next.”
Richard flicked his sleeves and glared at Ramona. “It is your fault that you have given birth to such a daughter!”
“Such a daughter?”
Ramona was also furious.
She pointed at Richard’s nose and scolded him. “Think about it and tell me. Isn’t it all thanks to Sally that you can be where you are today? If you think Sally is useless, you can coax Madison, the bit ch back to the Hale family. Edgar loved her so much back then, but why didn’t she give you any benefits?
“Also, how long has it been since Sally entered the entertainment industry? The money she earned is already more than what the Hale family used to have. What right do have to say that Sally is useless? You were able to expand the Hale family business to its

current scale because Sally begged Leo Palmer.
“Now that something has gone wrong, you’re blaming and scolding us? You call yourself a man?”
Ramona scolded Richard very angrily. Just as she was still cursing, the sound of police sirens could be heard approaching from afar.
The three of them stopped their quarreling. The expressions on their faces changed. Madison really called the police.
Sally was the first to feel fear. She grabbed Ramona’s arm and said, “Mom, what should we do now? I don’t want to be arrested. I don’t want to be detained! I don’t want to go to
Chapter 99
jail!”
The criminal charge of stabbing someone with a knife could either be light or serious.
At the very least. Sally would be detained for a few days for causing trouble and provocation. However, she could also be accused of intentional assault and murder.
Sally did not expect Madison to be serious when she said she would call the police.
After all, Sally still thought that Madison was the silly girl who dared not cry when she was beaten up back then. If Madison cried, Sally would hit her harder.
Although Madison had changed, Sally did not take it to heart.
However, she did not expect that the bit ch would do as she said and call the police just like that!
Ramona comforted her. “It’s okay, Sally. Mom will protect you. I will not allow anything to happen to you. Go with the police when they arrive. Just be cooperative first. Mom will get you out soon, okay?”
“I don’t want to go, Mom! Let’s beg Leo for help, okay? Call him now.”
When the sirens got closer, Sally became extremely anxious.
Ramona was also anxious.
She was confident that her daughter would be fine, but now that the police cars were here, the police would definitely have to bring Sally away. If she resisted, another charge would be slapped on her.
She could only coax Ramona. “Be cooperative okay? Mom guarantees that you’ll be fine. I’ll talk to Leo soon. He’s soft-hearted, so he will not be angry with you for long. You trust Mom right?”
Sally knew that Leo was angry, but she still cried and threw a tantrum.
“But Mom, if I leave with the police today and the media finds out, my career in the entertainment industry will be over. What should I do?”
