Chapter 100

What Sally said was true. If Sally were to be detained, the police would not release any report. However, it was difficult to ensure that news would not leak.

Sally was considered one of the top celebrities in the entertainment industry. If she were arrested, someone would recognize her.

Although the Hale family had already reminded the guests to be careful with their words, the Hale family would not have the power to influence the police.

Ramona was extremely anxious, but she still patted her daughter’s hand to comfort her. “Don’t worry. I’ll handle this matter. Don’t worry and cooperate with the police first. I’ll get you out tomorrow, okay?”

Sally assumed that Ramona was going to beg Leo for help. After all, in Sidovor City, only Leo could bail people out.

As Sally continued to cry, her eyes became redder. She grabbed Ramona’s hand even harder. “What if Leo is unwilling? He must be very angry tonight. I doubt that he will marry me in the future.”

Sally felt that she would rather die if Leo did not marry her.

The police car stopped at the entrance of the villa, and police officers walked in.

Ramona patted Sally’s hand. “Even if Leo doesn’t help, I can still help you. Your father and I have been in Sidovor City for so many years. We also have some connections. Trust Mom okay?”

Sally had no other choice.

She was already handcuffed and could not struggle. Hence, she could only go with the police.

Ramona looked at Sally’s back view and sighed deeply.

Ramona’s expression turned serious. She wanted to discuss with Richard how to protect Sally’s reputation and career. However, she turned around and realized that she was the only one outside the villa.

Richard had gone into their villa because he felt embarrassed when the police car stopped in front of their villa.

Ramona scoffed. “Useless man. You are so unreliable!”

She looked worriedly at Sally’s back view again. After pondering for a moment, she took

out her phone and made a call.

Madison stood by the car with Joe beside her outside the villa.

Leo was not far away from them.

Without saying anything to Madison, Leo lowered his head and took out a

handkerchief to treat the wound on his hand.

Because his right hand was injured, his left hand was unsteady as he tried to treat the wound. Leo looked pitiful.

Joe glanced at him coldly but his mood suddenly improved a little. “Do you want to go and help your ex-husband? Do you feel sorry for him?”

Madison also saw Leo from the corner of her eye. Then, she looked in the same direction that Joe was looking at.

Leo seemed to have sensed something and looked up, coincidentally meeting Madison’s gaze.

They were not standing far away from each other, but they seemed to be separated by an invisible moat.

Madison retracted her gaze indifferently and said expressionlessly, “Why should I feel sorry for him? Some people will feel sorry for him. Besides, I don’t have the mood to feel sorry for him.”

The police had already brought Sally out. Madison walked over to answer the police’s questions.

Leo’s

gaze was fixed on Madison.

Antoine’s coat was still draped over Madison’s shoulders, and it didn’t fit her well. It almost reached her knees.

However, Madison walked determinedly toward the police, just to seek justice for Antoine.

Leo lowered his eyes and looked at his wound that was still hurting. He scoffed.

Just as Leo was looking at his wound, he heard an argument.

Leo heard the argument clearly as he was nearby.

Sally shouted, “What intentional assault? I didn’t do it on purpose at all. I just

accidentally injured someone! Madison Hale, don’t exaggerate matters. If it weren’t for me and the Hale family, you would have died. You’re just an ingrate! You’ll die a

horrible death!”

Sally’s words made Leo frown. After two seconds of silence, he walked toward the police

car.

Madison was not affected by Sally’s words. “My brother is still in the hospital receiving medical treatment. No matter what you’re thinking, it’s a fact that you injured someone. I’ll make you pay the price.”

The police had problems resolving this matter.

They didn’t have witnesses, and they didn’t have any evidence. They only had Madison and Sally’s statements.

As for hurting someone, the police had already seen the photos sent from the hospital showing Antoine’s wound. It was a fact that Sally had hurt someone. The police had to investigate further to establish Sally’s intent.

Either way, they had to look at the evidence and not listen to who was louder in the argument.

There was no point in arguing. The police had decided to take Sally in and detain her first.

Just as they were about to leave, Leo’s deep voice came from behind.

“I can prove that Miss Sally Hale intended to hurt someone. The wound on my hand is evidence. If the police need my statement, I will cooperate.”

Hearing this, the few people present were shocked and looked at him.

However, Sally was extremely startled.

Feeling startled and sad, Sally asked, “Leo, how can you say that?”

Leo did not avoid her gaze. “That’s the truth.”

The truth was that she did it on purpose. Even if Sally’s illness acted up and she couldn’t control her actions, she had a knife and wanted to stab Madison with it.

Even if there was no judgment based on Sally’s personal feelings, it could not change the fact that she had committed the crime.

Sally was dejected and went into the police’s car.

All she could think was that she was done for.

Leo was totally disappointed in her. He would not marry her. Sally also thought of that

terrifying man who did not take her seriously. Who knew what he would do to her….

Sally knew that she was doomed.

The car door closed, and the police didn’t say much to Leo.

Leo’s status was different. Now that his hand was injured, the police did not want to take his statement there and then.

In any case, there was no hurry to close the case. The police decided to discuss it and get statements the next day. After that, they drove away.

Now, only Madison, Joe, and Leo were outside the villa.

Madison was still in a daze after hearing what Leo said. The shock in her eyes could not be concealed. At the same time, she thought of Leo protecting her at the banquet just now. Suddenly she had mixed emotions.

She moved her l*ps but did not say anything.

She stopped looking at Leo and turned to talk to Joe.

She said in a low and tired voice, “Let’s go to the hospital. Antoine’s arm should have been bandaged by now. We can’t keep asking Miss Malone to help take care of him.”

From the looks of it, it was obvious that Madison did not want to talk to Leo, even though he suffered a cut just now because of her.

Joe did not comment on Madison’s words and actions.

Dealing with the Hale family was enough to make Madison physically and men tally exhausted. She did not have the energy to deal with Leo.

Joe could tell that Madison was very tired.

However, Joe felt that it was quite harsh on Leo. He did not want his sister to owe Leo anything. Hence he walked over to thank Leo,

“Thank you for talking to the police. The wound on your palm looks bad. We’re going to the hospital. Why don’t you come with us?”

Leo did not respond immediately. He looked at Madison.

However, when he saw Madison get into the passenger seat, his eyes narrowed slightly.

The front passenger seat was for girlfriends. He remembered that they had explained. this to him not long ago.

Madison and Leo were not officially divorced yet.

However, now was not the time to argue about this.

Leo was also very tired. He looked at his palm and slowly said, “Thank you, Mr. Daves. I’ll go with you to the hospital.”
