Ramona and Richard’s faces darkened.
They definitely would not kneel and bow to Madison. However, they did not expect. Madison to answer
so bluntly. For a moment, they froze on the spot and did not know what to say.
However, no one spoke up for them. Only those who were watching the commotion chimed in, “I
remember that on the day of Sally’s birthday party, Madison sincerely knelt and bowed three times to
Ramona after Ramona gave her the severance agreement. At that time, Sally still said that she had
hired someone to humiliate Madison. If it were me, I would have taken the agreement and left. Why
would I bother
to kneel before them?”
“That’s right. Sally said that she had hired someone to humiliate Madison. Who knows? That person
might have hurt Madison, too! Ramona kept saying that she was very kind. toward Madison as she had
raised her since she was young. However, by treating her like that, is she being kind? I think Madison is
the one with a conscience. She even knelt and bowed to Ramona after receiving the severance
agreement.”
“That’s right. When she chased
dison away, Ramona was not a bit soft-hearted at all. Now that Madison has found her brother, who is
a popular star, the Hale family wants to acknowledge their adopted daughter as their own and
announce it to the banquet guests. Do they seriously think we are fools?”
At first, the discussions were not loud, but toward the end, many guests were discussing very loudly.
They stopped short of reprimanding Ramona and Richard.
Even Madison was surprised.
She looked in the direction of someone who spoke with the loudest voice and saw Blanche. She was
wearing a red dress.
As if sensing her gaze, Blanche gave Madison a big smile.
Madison smiled back secretly and looked away quickly.
She looked at the couple standing in front of her. The expressions on their faces were very dark.
Richard felt especially angry. Ever since he established a relationship with the Palmer family, he had
always been flattered by others when he discussed business deals with other companies. He had
never felt so insulted.
And he was criticized by a group of women!

If not for the fact that he was in a difficult position, Richard would just shake off the hand of Ramona,
who was beside him, and leave without even looking at her.
Richard felt that it was all Ramona’s fault. What was she thinking? She even told Richard that
celebrities valued their reputation the most, but that was not true.
He thought, ‘Ramona is really a stu pid woman!’
Ramona was also complaining in her heart.
She had invited so many important guests over because she was certain that Madison would not dare
to say anything in front of so many people to protect her brother, who was an award-winning actor.
Unexpectedly, she really dared to say everything and even forced them to kneel.
Even if the Hale family did not treat her well, Ramona was still her elder. Even if Madison could not
greet them as Mom and Dad, they were still her elders. Ramona thought, ‘How could Madison be so
vicious and calculative?”
“Madison, this won’t end until I kneel and apologize to you, right?”
Ramona did not want to bow to Madison, nor did she want to fall into such a passive state. She
immediately acted as though she was victimized, and her eyes turned red.
Ramona did not have Sally’s ability to cry so easily. At this moment, her eyes were red. because she
was angry.
Madison raised her eyebrows and did not say anything.
However, the expression on Madison’s face seemed to say it all. If Ramona wanted to kneel, she would
kneel. She did not have to say so many ridiculous things.
Ramona gritted her teeth. “Alright, I will apologize to you today to show that I am. sincere about having
you back into the Hale family. And it is not because you have a famous brother!”
As Ramona spoke, she started to bend her knees in front of Madison.
“Wait, Ramona!”
Madison suddenly stopped her.
Ramona’s vicious eyes flashed with joy.
She thought that Madison the bit ch would not dare to make her kneel. There were so many people
watching. If Ramona knelt, Madison would be blamed by tens of millions of people when they read the
news tomorrow.

In the next second, Ramona’s expression froze when she heard what Madison said. “Ramona, as I
have said earlier. Don’t say that you are my mother.”
Madison smiled gently and held Antoine’s arm casually. After dressing up for the occasion tonight, she
looked so much more refined and noble than she was in the Hale family. Madison looked like she was
from a wealthy family.
Compared to Ramon’s current state, Madison looked even more beautiful.
Madison still had a smile on her face. “I was 14 years old when Sally came back. You
kicked me away, and I
address you as Mom to cat and live with the Hale family serva nts. I also could not
address you as Mom and Dad. Now that ten years have passed, I’m not used to calling you Mom and
Dad. I think you’re not used to it either. Also, if you want to kneel, hurry up. Don’t waste so much time
talking!”
After a very short while, Madison looked at Ramona’s pale face and added. “Of course, Antoine has
told me to be a grateful person, so I will not make things difficult for you. I bowed three times to you
before I left. If you want me to come back, just bow once. If not, you will accuse me of not being
respectful toward you.”
Ramona was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
She thought, ‘You are respecting me as an elder? You are forcing me to bow and apologize to you.
How is that being respectful? You bit ch! I have no idea how scheming you are. I have really
underestimated you!”
At this moment, Ramona did not care about the guests around her. Her resentful gaze landed on
Madison.
However, Madison was not angry. She still looked at Ramona and waited patiently for her to kneel and
bow. Madison stretched her hand out as though she was telling Ramona to do it quickly.
Ramona wanted to pretend to faint and get over the matter.
She was so angry at Madison that her head was throbbing in pain. Ramona covered her forehead and
looked at Madison in disbelief. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Madison looked exasperated. ‘Ramona, why are you looking at me like that? If you don’t want me to
come back, Antoine and I can leave now. Just say something. If you faint like this, I’m afraid I’ll be
blamed again.”
As soon as Madison said this, Ramona knew she could not pretend to faint.
The guests who were watching the drama started to ridicule Ramona.
They realized that Ramona and Richard really knew how to put on an act. As soon as

their biological daughter returned, they asked their adopted daughter to eat and live with the serv ants
and did not allow her to address them as Dad and Mom.
Not only did they not want to continue raising Madison, but they also had to retain. their good
reputation to keep her. Hence, Madison suffered while in their care.
The guests also realized that the couple did not want to waste their money on Madison and hence they
treated her like a ser vant. However, they told others that Madison was their adopted daughter and
pretended to allow her to address them as Dad and Mom. Richard and Ramona were so disgusting!
Some people had already guessed that Edgar liked Madison and that was why the Hale family did that,
Ramona knew that Madison was young and that was why they mistreated her. She would not dare
complain to anyone that she was being treated like a ser vant at home.
Now, the dirty linen had all been aired. Ramona felt that her head was
s more painful
than ever.
She looked up and saw a man in a suit and leather shoes slowly walking in from outside. the villa. Her
heart sk ipped a beat.
It did not matter what outsiders said. This group of people had no principles. They would throw their
pride away and come to them if they need help in the future.
However, Leo was different. If he really believed Madison’s words and was unwilling to marry Sally,
nobody would come to the Hale family for help in the future.
Ramona denied it vehemently and said that she had never done all those things. “Madison, what has
happened to you? You were so obedient in the past. Why are you still saying these ridiculous things
now? When did we ask you to eat and live with the serv ants? Your room is still nicely kept in the
house!”
Madison had guessed that Ramona would say this. Hence, Madison did not want to say anything.
“Let’s not talk about this for now. I think you should fulfill your promise first.”
Madison paused and then said, “By the way, if Ramona has thought it through and wants me back in
the Hale family, does that mean that I am also entitled to the inheritance of the Hale family? I am not
greedy. I don’t need to receive the same amount as Sally. I’ll take whatever you are willing to give me.”
