Chapter 124
A chill crept up Sally’s back.
The message merely included a few words without any additional emojis, but it made. Sally feel
suffocated again.
She took a deep breath. She probably felt that the other party could not do anything to her through the
screen, so she angrily jabbed at the phone screen.
Sally sent a text, saying, [Don’t worry. I’ll definitely invite you to my wedding!]
The other party did not reply.
Sally waited for a long time. She thought that this terrifying man would send her a message to express
his anticipation or something else, but he didn’t send anything over.
She was so angry that she wanted to smash her phone. She raised her hand and was about to do so
when she stopped.
A moment later, she opened the dialogue box with another contact whose profile picture was blank.
She sent a message with trembling hands, [Lco, why don’t you reconsider it? If you pity me because of
my illness, it will be too unfair to you. I can tell that you like Madison. Think about it carefully.]
When Leo received this message and was about to drive, he suddenly stopped after reading it.
Then, he replied, [I don’t like Madison. Don’t overthink it.]
He merely replied with one sentence, and he turned a blind eye to the rest that he did. not want to reply
to.
He did not say if he liked Sally or if he pitied her.
He only knew that he did not want to think about Madison anymore. Just the thought of her made him
unable to control his emotions. That emotion made him very uncomfortable.
He thought that he was having this kind of emotion because he didn’t like her.
It was because he didn’t like her that he felt uncomfortable.
He didn’t like Madison, and he was sure of it.
Time passed in a flash, especially when one was busy.
Madison was so busy at Rose Garden that she almost forgot the time. It was only when

At four o’clock in the afternoon, she arrived at the city hall on time.
As soon as she got out of the car, she received a call from Morris. His tone was anxious. “Have you
arrived, Mrs. Palmer?”
Before Madison could answer, a man’s impatient voice came from the receiver. “Tell her to hurry up.”
Madison held back the urge to answer that she had arrived. She had been anxious. because she was
about to be late, but she instantly calmed down. She walked slowly in her high heels and even took out
her lipstick to touch up her makeup.
“I’ll be there in a while. I’m sorry, I’ll have to make Mr. Palmer wait for a while. If he’s in a hurry, tell him
that we might as well just go through the process as soon as possible and make it done casually like
when we got married back then.”
Her mean tone was the same as Joe’s. Just hearing it made one want to beat her up.
In the black Spyker car, Morris, who was in the driver’s seat, looked at the man in the backseat at a
loss. “Mr. Palmer, look.”
Leo kept looking out of the car and did not answer Morris. He pushed the door open, got out of the car,
and strode in a certain direction.
Morris’s eyes widened. For a moment, he did not know if he should reply to Madison first or follow Leo
out of the car.
He got out of the car in a hurry. He was thinking about telling Madison not to worry, but just as he said
the words “Mrs. Palmer,” he saw a woman applying lipstick on a car window not far away.
Without another word, Morris quickly hung up and followed Leo.
Madison glanced at the phone that had been hung up. Without much hesitation, she picked up the
phone and used it as a mirror to make her makeup more exquisite.
“All dressed up?” A deep voice came from behind, almost startling Madison.
She turned around and met Leo’s darkened and angry eyes when a bright smile showed on her
gorgeous face.
“Yes, Mr. Palmer. After you,” answered Madison.
Leo did not move. He looked down and stared at Madison.

Chapter 124
She was still wearing the same dress that she had taken from the Palmer family’s residence in the
morning, but she had changed into a knitted jacket. The beige color made her face look bright and
noble. She looked less gentle than she did in the morning.
Perhaps it was because she had put on makeup that her fiery red lips made her look even more
radiant.
“Mr. Palmer?” Madison’s asking pulled Leo back to reality.
Leo looked away and walked past her shoulder with a darkened expression.
Madison was not angry. She smiled at Morris who was behind Leo. Then, she followed. Leo at a
moderate distance with her high heels.
The office was divided into two parts. One side was for marriage procedures, and the other side was
for divorce.
Comparatively, the marriage office seemed a little deserted. Of course, it might be because it was
afternoon.
On the other side, there were not many empty seats. There was only between some couples who were
about to divorce.
e empty seat
When Madison and Leo walked over, they were stopped by the staff. “The marriage office is on the
other side.”
It was probably because the makeup on Madison’s face was too bright that people misunderstood.
“We are here for a divorce,” Madison explained with a smile.
The staff was stunned for a moment. He looked at Leo, who looked utterly gloomy when he said, “I’m
sorry. Please wait in line to fill out the form first.”
Madison and Leo both nodded.
However, there were many people waiting for the divorce. It would take a while to go. through the
proper procedures.
Madison was a little bored. She yawned and complained, “Leo, is there something wrong with you? We
could have done a simple procedure, but you insisted that we come personally. Terrific. There are so
many people waiting now. It’s so troublesome.”
Leo closed his eyes and leaned against the chair to rest. He could not be bothered with
her.
Madison propped up her face and seemed to be talking to herself. “Don’t tell me you

want passersby to take a photo of us and then post it on the news so that Sally can see it. Hey, I guess
it will bring Sally a sense of security. After all, our divorce has dragged on for so long. Any girl would
overthink it.”
“Madison,” Leo suddenly interrupted her with a gloomy gaze. “Can you shut up?”
Madison blinked innocently.
She naturally did not listen to Leo or obediently shut up. “In my opinion, Mr. Palmer, your temper is a
little too bad. I didn’t mess with you, right? You said four in the afternoon. Although I didn’t come early, I
wasn’t late either, right? Do you have to keep a long face? Besides, our divorce is consensual. Don’t
make it look like I cheated you of your feelings and money. Think about it. Without me bothering you in
the future, you can marry your sweetheart and live a good life.”
“A good life?” Leo dwelt on her words and sneered.
Madison was not happy. She clicked her tongue. “What do you mean?
Leo glanced sideways. His expression was not as gloomy as before, but there was a hint Leo glanced
sideways. His expression was
mockery. “If I have a good life after marrying Sally, what about you, Miss Hale? Do you plan to start a
good life after marrying XR Entertainment’s Mr. Daves, or do you have other plans by leaving him
hanging?
Madison did not know why he was so hostile against her.
However, what he said was just too harsh. Even if she had deliberately made Leo misunderstand her
relationship with Joe, Leo shouldn’t have said those words.
Madison wondered what was wrong with him.
It was their turn. Without waiting for her answer, Leo restrained the ridicule in his eyes. and walked
straight ahead.
Madison followed behind him. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She could not
help but refute by saying, “Leo, we’re here for a divorce today. Once we get the certificate and get out
of this place, we’ll have nothing to do with each other. Who you will marry has nothing to do with me,
and it’s the same the other way around. You mocked me for leaving a man hanging, but I think you’re
too stu pid to marry a goody two-shoes!”
Leo stopped and looked at her gloomily.
Madison also glared at him. “Why are you staring at me? Fill in the form!”
Leo looked down at the various papers in front of him. He suddenly had the urge to turn around.
