Chapter 107
Amber was probably afraid that Leo would be unwilling, so she quickly spoke up.
“We’ll talk about you marrying Sally later, but the Palmer family has to give an explanation for
Madison’s grievances. Since you’ve already decided to divorce Madison, you shouldn’t keep dragging it
out! Now, you’re still using her husband’s identity to care about the woman who abused her when she
was young. Have you thought about how Madison feels?
“I didn’t consider this matter thoroughly, but a life is at stake. I can’t care so much. I’ll “I didn’t consider
this matter thoroughly, apologize to her properly when I see her tomorrow night,” Leo said.
Leo did not fall silent. He continued after Amber.
Amber did not react for a while. She thought that Leo would not come back, so she finished her
sentence first.
“When I called Madison, I heard from her tone that she didn’t want to return to the residence. She
hasn’t been back for a long time and didn’t even take the time to visit me. Do you know what this
means? It means that she wants to cut ties with the Palmert family! I’m still taking advantage of the fact
that you’re not divorced, and you can beg her to visit me. Don’t give me another reason to say that
you’re not coming back tomorrow night.”
“Mom…”
Leo had a headache. He could not help but interrupt the chatter on the phone. “I said I would come
back. I won’t go back on my word.”
Amber was stunned. “What?”
At this moment, Leo understood that Amber did not listen to him at all.
He raised his hand to press between his eyebrows and repeated, “I’ll be back tomorrow night. Don’t
worry. I’ll make things clear to Madison.””
Amber didn’t seem to believe him. “Really?”
Previously, when she mentioned that they were not divorced, Leo still looked. frustrated. Now, he was
actually willing to meet Madison. What the hell was going on?
Moreover, she felt that she had not done her best to persuade her son to come back for dinner. Why
did he agree so quickly?
That shouldn’t be the case.
Leo felt the confusion in his mother’s words and felt a little helpless. “Really.”
It was rare for his tone to be so gentle.
“Alright, don’t forget to come back early tomorrow afternoon.”
Amber knew her son well. Since he had promised her, he would not go back on his word unless there
was something special.
Π
After receiving a satisfactory result, she did not object to Leo’s decision to stay in the hospital.
Moreover, he would not listen to her if she objected, so she simply ignored it.
“By the way, when you come back tomorrow, bring more fruits. Madison likes them.
about You don’t have to buy too many. Just have more variety. You don’t have to worry a the dishes.
Maya and I will prepare them. Then, you can buy snacks and cakes. I remember that she liked to eat
small cakes in the past. Also, bring some melon seeds and nuts. Don’t buy too many to avoid wasting
them. There’s nothing else. You can hang up now.”
“Alright.”
“Don’t forget.”
After Amber said this, the call hung up mercilessly.
Leo frowned. He put down his hand and lowered his eyes to look at the phone screen that was
gradually ending. His emotions were a little complicated.
Halfway through the conversation, he thought that it would be the same as before, arguing with his
mother and hanging up when he couldn’t take it
anymore.
After listening to his mother’s peaceful ramblings, Leo felt like he was living in a dream.
If this could continue, he might be able to move back to the residence to eat and live. with his mother.
He would not have to leave her alone in that house.
However, such situations were rare. Leo was very clear about it and quickly withdrew from the feelings.
His dark eyes regained their indifference.
“Leo…”
A voice suddenly came from the other side of the bed, as weak as an animal on the verge of death.
Leo put away his phone and looked over.
The woman with the gauze on her head had yet to open her eyes, but she looked like she was not
sleeping well. Her brows were tightly furrowed, and her head was struggling

Leo approached and heard his name coming out of the woman’s mouth. frowned and pursed his thin
lips..
“Leo, is that you…”
The woman’s eyes blurred for a moment before she closed them tightly again. The voice in her mouth
became louder.
“I’m really dead. I can actually see what happened in my dream… He was so angry. How could he still
come to see me? I’m dead… It’s good that I’m dead. Take it as an apology to the previous me.

“I should have died a long time ago… I died when that family hit me, scolded me, and wanted to drown
me in the river. If I had died a long time ago, she would still be m parents’ good daughter, and there
wouldn’t be so much trouble tonight.”
Sally was lying on the hospital bed with her eyes closed and kept muttering these things in a low voice.
It was intermittent, but enough for the person standing by the bed to hear it clearly. Leo had indeed
listened patiently, but he did not express any opinions or take action.
He stood by the bed and looked at Sally expressionlessly. Sally was humming, and her head was
moving restlessly on the pillow.
It was not until someone knocked on the door and he saw Ramona coming in with food that he made a
slight move.
“Leo, you are still here,” Ramona smiled at him and came in with food.
Leo nodded and raised his hand to look at his phone. “Ramona, it’s about time. Sally has been injected
with a tranquillizer. There are still some things to do at the company, so I won’t stay any longer.”
Ramona knew that haste makes waste. She nodded. “Then go do your work. Be careful on the road!”
“Alright, I know.”
Leo responded and left the ward.
When the door of the ward closed with a click, the smile on Ramona’s face immediately disappeared.
The woman on the bed also propped herself up with her arms.
“Mom, is he gone?”
As if she was worried, Sally stuck her neck out and asked. She did not look like a patient who had just
been injected with a tranquillizer and was forced to sleep. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“He has gone. Quickly lie down and rest.”
Ramona raised the bedboard for Sally and placed a pillow behind her. Then, she opened the food box
and placed the food on the table bit by bit.
“How was it just now? I taught you what you said when you were unconscious. Did Leo respond to
anything?”
At the thought of this, Sally was disappointed. “No, he kept calling. I couldn’t hear anything! However, I
guessed that it was Amber calling. She probably asked Leo to leave the hospital, but Leo didn’t agree.”
As she spoke, Amber smiled, and her tone was rather smug.
“I couldn’t understand what happened after that. I only heard that Leo’s attitude improved a little. It was
probably something from the company. He said that he would. go back. His voice was a little soft, so I
couldn’t hear him clearly.”
“It’s fine. Since he came to the hospital, it means that he still has feelings for you. You still have a
chance! Make good use of it, understand?” Ramona said earnestly.
Sally drank the soup and nodded. “Don’t worry, Mom. Don’t worry about my ability. Besides, the injury
this time is real. If I can’t seize the chance, I got hurt for nothing.”
“You’ve worked hard, my dear. It must have hurt like hell.”
Ramona’s heart ached when she saw the gauze on Sally’s forehead. She could not help but complain,
“I told you to put on a show, but you really hit the wall. If anything happens to you, what should I do?”
“I know what I’m doing. If it’s not real, how can I get out? Besides, the police and Leo are not easy to
fool,” Sally pouted.
Ramona became even angrier. “It’s all because of that bit ch. I underestimated her ability! Don’t worry.
Be good. Sooner or later, she will suffer twice the injury on your forehead!”

Little did they know that and action was being monitored in a corner of the VIP ward.
At this moment, on a computer in the city, the scene just now happened to be displayed
on the screen.
The masked man sat in front of the computer with a mocking smile on his lips, looking down at
everything with interest…
