Chapter 157

Madison spoke with an unyielding frankness.

“I have never considered Joe’s crowd to be shady. Why anyone would label a group as unsavory? What does that have to do with the innocents? Why did Sally end up in such a place if it’s as corrupt as he claims? He must believe he can shield Sally. But does he think he’s her savior? Does Sally even need to seek anyone’s approval? Yet, he’s unaware that his betrothed has already been ensnared by a trap. He appears to have a solid backup, wanting to have his cake and eat it too! Madison thought.

As soon as she thought of some photos she had seen before, Madison felt disgusted, and Leo also looked unpleasant.

But Madison also knew that not everyone was like Sally.

In his brother’s circle, these troubles would never-arise. And his sister, Blanche, would never be like Sally.

Her sister, Blanche, had already had a difficult time in the Malone family, but she had not given up on some bottom lines because of her difficult life. Even if she was criticized by the entire internet, she silently endured those insults that did not belong

to her.

Fortunately, there were always more good things in this world.

Post-storm, Blanche seemed to be finding her stride, slowly but surely improving her

lot.

As for these troubles, there was no need to worry about them.

Madison didn’t want to continue talking with Leo, she held Joe’s hand and shook it, saying, “I’m hungry, let’s go to eat.”

Joe felt the fatigue creeping in as well.

Men understood each other’s thoughts the best. Leo couldn’t really figure out what he was doing or if it was because of other thoughts, but he understood it clearly.

Yet Madison wasn’t curious about Leo’s denial, despite the obvious situation with his sister. All Madison wanted was to extricate his family’s Jessica from this mess.
