My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise

Chapter 96

A strange expression flashed across Ramona’s face for a moment, but it disappeared” quickly.

Ramona retorted, “What’s wrong with the Hale family? Other than getting you to give up your room to

Sally when you were 14 years old, what did we do to let you down? We adopted you and raised you.

Now you are being very ungrateful!”

Ramona finally revealed her true character and roared at Madison.

Sally chimed in, “That’s right, Madison. I came back when I was 14 years old. My parents

acknowledged me as their biological daughter and asked you to give me the room. You agreed to this

too. Other than asking you move to a smaller room, aren’t our lives the same? We led the same lives.

How did we let you down?”

She and Ramona insisted that the Hale family was fair in treating Madison.

In any case, so many years had passed. Without any evidence, who could prove that they had abused

Madison back then?

Those serv ants who worked for the Hale family back then had all gone back to their hometown to take

care of their grandchildren. Even if they were still here now, they would not speak up for Madison!

Not only did Sally not admit this, but she also tried to involve Leo in this matter.

“Leo, back then, you often came to our house to play with us. You know how we treated Madison. We

had always been together!”

Leo looked at Madison.

Madison’s face was void of expressions now. She stood quictly in the center of the crowd with a good

posture. She was listening to all the comments.

It wasn’t that Leo had forgotten about the past. Many images flashed through his mind.

Leo remembered that before Sally came back, Madison would have a smile on her face every day. He

also recalled after Madison turned 14 years old, she would sit on the sofa. with her head lowered,

wearing simple clothes.

Her dark eyes were always covered by her thick bangs, and there was no happiness in

her

eyes.

Hence, Leo felt that Madison was becoming very boring. She was like a walking corpse, doing

whatever her elders asked her to do.

11:12 Mon, 29 Jan MUG

When Edgar arranged for Madison to get married, she did not refuse. Leo also felt disgusted with her

and was unwilling to even talk to her.

However, there might be other reasons why Madison became like that.

“Leo?”

Sally saw him staring at Madison in a daze and called him again.

Madison gave Sally a sidelong glance and met directly with Leo’s glance.

Under everyone’s gaze, Leo remained silent.

After a while, he spoke slowly, “I didn’t live in the Hale family all the time. I don’t know what happened

exactly.”

Sally was stunned.

Sally did not expect Leo to say that. She thought, ‘How could he… How could he speak up for this bi

tch?”

Madison was also stunned.

She was a little surprised that Leo didn’t stand by Sally’s side and continue speaking in line with her.

Madison felt that it was strange.

She was also not affected by what Leo had added.

“I wasn’t in the Hale family every day, so I didn’t know about certain things. But when I visited, I didn’t

see Madison being treated unfairly.”

In other words, the Hale family treated Sally and Madison equally.

Of course, Leo did not know that there was a difference in treatment. They were treated equally when

there were outsiders around.

For most of the time in the Hale family when there were no outsiders, no one knew how Madison was

treated.

However, it was obvious that Sally thought Leo was speaking up for her and she started shouting at the

top of her lungs.

“Everyone, you’ve heard it too. Mr. Palmer said that my family has never mistreated Madison. He grew

up with us and is a partner in the business world with all of you. His words are always trustworthy. On

the other hand, Madison Hale, other than saying that we’ve mistreated you, do you have any other

evidence?”

“If you want evidence, I can show you the evidence!”

11:12 Mon, 29 Jan MG.

Madison replied slowly with a cold voice. Her voice sounded more soothing than Sally’s sharp voice.

Sally shut her mouth and decided that she should stop

her act.

Sally sneered. “Alright, since you have evidence, show it to everyone!”

She didn’t believe that Madison had any evidence.

There were no witnesses, let alone physical evidence.

Sally did not believe that Madison would take off her gown and reveal the wounds on her body.

Sally knew how to hit people, and no one would know. She chose places where others. could not see

the wounds. She did not believe that Madison would take off her gown in public!

As Sally was deep in thought, Madison took a step forward and unzipped her gown.

Sally’s eyes widened.

When Leo saw what Madison was doing, he felt a tug at his heart. He could not help but step forward.

However, he was stopped by Antoine.

Antoine’s expression was indifferent, and his eyes were cold. “Mr. Palmer seems to have forgotten

what I said.”

The expression on Leo’s face was terrible. “Look at what she’s doing!”

There were so many people present. Leo could not believe she was going to take off her gown in front

of so many people!

Antoine didn’t budge. He stood in front of Leo and said, “My sister knows what she’s doing.

As soon as he finished speaking, the lower hem of Madison’s gown touched the ground.

Leo looked in the direction of Madison with his dark eyes.

Madison was still wearing a gown but there was a piece of wrinkled fabric missing, and the design of

the original gown had changed.

The new evening gown still looked simple and beautiful on Madison’s slender frame. The missing

wrinkled fabric turned the original gown into a more charming gown.

Without those wounds, Madison’s body would be perfect.

All the guests present were shocked when they saw the wounds.

They were also extremely emotional. This bright and flamboyant beautiful woman in front of them was

covered in wounds.

There were knife cuts, burnt marks, and other uneven scars. There were also dark marks that looked

like Madison had been pinched many times at the same place. They

didn’t go away…

Moreover, it was obvious that they were old scars. It was unclear how long these scars had been there.

Moreover, they were all on Madison’s back. The scars could not have been self-inflicted.

Many of the guests present were elders and had children. When they thought of how a teenager had

suffered such abuse, they could not bear to look anymore. They turned their heads away as their

eyes turned red.

There was dead silence.

The silence was finally broken by Antoine.

He took off his coat and put it over Madison’s shoulders. He glanced at Sally with a cold gaze. “I

wonder if Miss Sally Hale is satisfied with my little sister’s evidence?”

Sally opened her mouth, but she could not say anything.

Her throat was dry as she looked at Leo.

Sally was in a daze. There was only one thought in her mind. Now that Leo knew about this, he

definitely would not marry her.

Leo did not even want to look at Sally now.

He kept staring at Madison without blinking his eyes.

No wonder Madison had such a big reaction when she heard his words that morning.

Leo thought, ‘An ugly body? The human heart is uglier!”

Leo now realized that he was blind to many things back in the day. He did not realize that Madison was

becoming timid day by day. She only lowered her head and listened. She had completely lost herself.

After being scolded, beaten, and punished, who would dare raise their heads and be happy?

Leo blinked as tears welled

up in his

in his cyes.

He wanted to walk toward Madison, but her brother’s coat was already draped over her shoulders.

There were also people standing beside her, protecting her.

Leo felt that he could do nothing.

“Leo, I really didn’t do it on purpose. You know how sick I used to be. I had no idea what I was doing.”

When Leo was still looking at Madison, Sally suddenly cried beside him.

However, this move no longer worked. Leo only looked over coldly and avoided Sally’s hand as she

reached over to touch him.

Sally’s hand waved in the air.
