“What’s wrong with him?”

Nowadays, Madison didn’t feel much of a stir in her heart upon hearing Leo’s name.

However, at this time, she knew that there wouldn’t be any good news from him. So, she was curious to find out.

People were saying that if the ex was not doing well, she was doing well.

She leaned over, and Blanche handed the phone over. She frowned slightly. “I’m also wondering what’s wrong with him.”

On the phone was Leo’s profile. The post that originally helped Sally turn the situation around had disappeared, leaving only the latest post on the profile.

Surprisingly, the post did not defend Sally. Instead, it briefly explained his marriage to Madison.

Even though it started due to the wishes of the elders at home, he was the one who proposed, and he was the one who initiated the divorce. There was no emotional misunderstanding or third-party involvement.

In the end, he apologized to Madison and hoped that netizens would stop talking about their private matters.

The few lines looked very formal as if written by a public relations team. However, between the lines, the words were filled with protection for Madison, and every word matched the post that Madison had posted previously.

Their marriage wasn’t formed out of genuine love, but it also wasn’t a marriage that contradicted morals.

As for the female protagonist that he was supposed to protect, she had disappeared from this post.

It seemed like she was being protected, yet at the same time, deliberately ignored.

But all in all, the purpose of this post was to refute those d*rty words on behalf of Madison.

She was his wife who had gotten a marriage certificate, not the so-called unloved third

party.

“What do you think he means?”

Blanche read these lines twice, then looked at Madison in confusion.

Chapter 139

“Do you think he’s alright? Sally’s scandal is about to be exposed. Instead of dealing with her matters, he’s here to clarify your marriage. Where was he yesterday when you were being criticized?”

Madison also finished reading the entire post.

Other than the addition of a proposal at the beginning and her own format at the end, the content was almost exactly the same as the clarification post that she had deleted. The only difference was that the words she used were not as emotional. She recounted her past mechanically.

When he said that he was proposing, he took all the blame on himself.

The wrong marriage and the drama of the past few days had shifted the focus of the curses that were concentrated on the two girls because of this post.

Madison’s marriage was at his proposal, and Sally’s marriage was something he dragged on. All the fault lay with him, so what mistakes had the two of them made?

Blanche was not the only one who could not figure out Leo’s motive for doing so. Madison could not figure it out either.

Palmer Group’s market value was already a little unstable because of this public opinion. Wouldn’t his actione

worsen Palmer Group’s reputation?

Blanche rubbed her chin and analyzed, “Does he think Sally’s situation is already bad, so he’s just being completely honest about everything?”

Madison shook her head. “But this post doesn’t have much to do with Sally.”

In terms of results, she was the biggest beneficiary, not Sally.

She picked up her phone and got up to tidy up her chef’s uniform. She took her chef’s hat and stopped talking about this matter.

“I still have something to do in the kitchen. I’ll be busy for a while. If you want to stay here and wait for me to be free, I’ll come over to accompany you. If you get bored, just leave me a message and say that you’re leaving.”

Blanche nodded and looked a little aggrieved. “Alright, I’ll stay here and read the script. Remember to come and see me.”

Madison nodded with a smile and left the private room with her phone.

However, after taking a few steps out, she opened her phone again and searched Leo’s

account.

The post had not been published for long, but there were already many comments on

this post.

The comments were not just insults towards Leo, calling him a scu mbag who enjoyed both what he had and what he didn’t, marrying one while still dangling another, but also included fierce language and some additional criticisms. Some people were also appreciating him for speaking up in this way.

In addition, there were many complaints from Sally’s fans.

After all, Sally’s identity was different, and there were more people defending her online.

They even forcefully linked Leo’s situation to Sally’s detention.

[Sally’s Kitty: I really misjudged you! I was originally very relieved to hand Sally over to you, but in the end, when Sally was in trouble, you deleted the post and clarified things for your ex-wife. You are truly the top scu mbag, no wonder you got divorced! Let me tell you, we, the fans of Sally, will never agree to Sally marrying you!]

Surprisingly, Leo replied to this comment seriously.

[Leo: I wasn’t the one who posted yesterday’s post, so I deleted it and restored the original truth. After all, innocent people shouldn’t suffer undeserved insults. As for my marriage with Sally, if she doesn’t want to marry, I won’t force her. If she wants to marry, I’ll keep my promise.]

Madison fl*pped through the comments with the men tality of watching a show. Her gaze suddenly paused when she saw this reply. Her thoughts were complicated because of the last sentence.

‘If she wants to marry, I’ll keep my promise!

Did it make sense to her that Leo would marry Sally simply because of his promise?

But, why?

Without much time to think, Madison’s attention was already attracted by Sally’s huge fans comments.

[Sally Kitty: Don’t worry, Sally will definitely be open-minded about sc umbags like you! There are many people who want to marry Sally, so we don’t need you! Just don’t kneel down and beg Sally to marry you! Also, you said that you didn’t post yesterday, so why can’t I understand that today’s post was posted by your st upid team? Anyone with a discerning eye can tell which post is more attached to your face!]

Madison almost laughed out loud when she saw this.

It seemed like these adorable fans were probably unaware that their idol had long

considered herself as Mrs. Palmer within the industry, eagerly hoping to marry Leo and become Mrs. Palmer.

She wondered if Sally would be angry when she saw this.

What was even more interesting was Leo’s reply.

He was not as patient as before, typing a long paragraph. This time, he only replied with only a few words.

[Leo: Think whatever you want.]

To put it simply, if they really wanted to think that way, there’s nothing he could do.

After that, there was no further reply.

Madison swiped a few times, and after realizing that there was no new fun, phone away.

she put her

Due to her casual and fluffy nature, she didn’t even notice that she had accidentally liked one of his replies.

She was using her main account to reply to Antoine and was even followed by Leo.

In the CEO’s office of Palmer Group at this moment, Leo had just replied to a few comments. He felt that it was pointless to argue with others, so he chose not to engage further.

Just as he was about to leave, he caught a glimpse of a familiar name that even liked his reply.

For some reason, his mood that had been somewhat heavy for the past two days eased a bit. His l*ps even curled up slightly.

Even so, Morris standing opposite the desk was astonished seeing his subtle change.

It was already good that Mr. Palmer didn’t have his usual fierce expression these past two days. Now, he even seemed to be in a good mood.

Just as he was about to speak, the man opposite him spoke first.

“Have you settled the assets I asked you to compensate Madison?”
