Chapter 1 38
On the report tablet, it was precisely the post published by Leo.
[The person I want to marry has always been Sally.]
The page was a PowerPoint presentation done by the Public Relations Department. The comments
below the post could not be seen, but without much thought, one could guess what kind of commotion
this sentence would cause.
With a cold expression, he opened the platform and looked at the post. As expected, the comments
about Madison were very unbearable.
Especially when he saw the phrase ‘the unloved one is the third party’, he was so angry that he almost
smashed the tablet in his hand.
His wife, who received the marriage certificate and had a proper wedding, was called a third party. This
was a joke.
“I asked you to deal with the public opinion problem, not to spread rumors. I’m spending so much
money to support you all, and you can’t even handle a crisis in public relations?”
The tablet made a muf fled sound on the table as if it had hit their hearts hard. Everyone
subconsciously trembled and lowered their heads silently.
They did not expect Leo to be so angry. After all, he was the one who gave the order to protect the
Palmer Group’s image no matter what method they used. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
The person in charge of the Public Relations Department felt wronged, so he briefly explained the ins
and outs of the matter to defend his team.
“Mr. Palmer, this is mainly the situation. People online are saying that you’re a scu mbag and that Miss
Hale is a third party. That’s why we thought of registering your personal account to clarify. Besides, we
didn’t say much…”
They simply echoed a statement in the manner of Leo.
Moreover, judging from how they had helped Sally clean up the mess online for the past three years,
they seemed to figure out the intention of their superiors to not only protect the Palmer Group’s image
but also to enhance Sally’s reputation
As for the others, they did not care.
One was the divorced former Mrs. Palmer, and the other was the future Mrs. Palmer who had been
protected by Mr. Palmer for three years. It was clear whom they were trying to please and whom they
were trying to defame.

However, they did not expect that from the current outcome, they had made a fool of themselves.
Leo was amused by their explanation. “You didn’t say much, huh? We’re all Internet users. Don’t you
know that even a few words online can cause a big stir?”
They did not say anything, but that statement was enough to explain the public opinion situation at that
time.
Furthermore, with the guidance of someone behind the scenes, it extended to various meanings.
Evidently, the consequences of that statement had already surfaced.
“Send me the account password. I’ll handle this matter myself. You guys are in charge of monitoring
public opinion.”
Leo ordered sternly with a cold expression. He picked up the tablet again and flipped through the
follow-up plan and results. He couldn’t be bothered to maintain a good face in front of this group of
people any longer.
Without any delay, the person in charge quickly handed over the operational phone.
Leo did not even look up. “If there’s nothing else, you can go out.”
The person in charge hesitated and looked like he wanted to say something.
“If you have something to say, just say it.”
Leo looked up with an impatient expression.
Thinking about it, he felt that it was ridiculous. The team raised by such a huge company was useless.
In the end, the Public Relations Department even wanted him, the CEO, to personally intervene. If this
information leaked, it would sound like a fabricated story.
Under the stern reprimand, the person in charge didn’t dare to delay any further. He quickly recounted
what had happened last night and this morning.
It was not only the anonymous exposure from Sally’s side that happened, but also Madison deleted her
post. Their team took the opportunity to manage the situation and protect the Palmer Group’s
reputation.
After saying that, he looked at Leo in fear.
Leo did not say anything. He only opened the platform with a solemn expression and personally took a
look at what was going on.
Chapter 1 38
When he saw Madison’s post, his hands paused.
Although that post had already been deleted by Madison, various media outlets had taken screenshots
and used them to re-post the news. The discussion around it hadn’t diminished.
“You guys go out first. I know what to do.”
Leo put down the tablet and picked up the phone that operated his account. Without any hesitation, he
deleted the post.
The few people standing in the office were stunned when they saw this, but they did not dare to ask
further. After Leo finished speaking, one after another, they hurriedly left, unwilling to stay any longer.
Compared to the popularity of Madison deleting the post, Leo deleting his post caused barely a ripple.
At this moment, the most heated discussion on the Internet was still about whether and why Sally was
detained.
Although there were also people who followed the clues and came to Leo to ask, they were relatively
few.
Most fans were still defending Sally, pretending that nothing had happened by posting previous
screenshots and her usual beautiful pictures.
There were also quite a few who engaged in online arguments with fans from other fandom, asserting
that they were spreading rumors and demanding evidence.
There were even some fans who directly scolded Sally’s team and asked them to release a statement.
Some voluntarily spent money to hire lawyers to contact and sue those who were spreading rumors
and causing trouble.
In the Rose Garden, Madison was watching with great interest.
Blanche was equally immersed, as many of those engaging in arguments with Sally’s fans were also
her fans.
She held a piece of cake in one hand and a phone in the other. Her face was filled with
anger.
“Goodness, how dare Sally’s fans! They’re actually spending money to contact lawyers to sue us.
Doesn’t their team communicate with these big fans? If they really go through with the lawsuit, it’ll be
quite interesting.”
After all, it was not a rumor to say that Sally was detained. Instead, it was their exchange that caused
the intention to increase.

Chapter 1 38
Madison was calm. “Isn’t it better to make a big fuss? Anyway, we’re just watching the show.”
Blanche agreed and nodded seriously.
However, she still occasionally saw the posts where Madison was scolded, and her mood plummeted
again.
She grabbed her phone and asked in confusion, “By the way, Madison, why did you delete the post you
wrote? Don’t you know that after you delete it, many people are saying you’re guilty? They started
scolding you again!”
Madison said calmly, “So be it. Anyway, I’ve already clarified it. If they prefer to believe some internet
saying over my marriage certificate, there’s not much more to say. Besides, the most urgent matter
right now isn’t about me.”
She did not explain why it was deleted.
At this moment, Madison had also figured it out. She was not from the entertainment industry, so it did
not matter even if she was scolded. It was just that she would be angry when she saw those words.
However, she could simply choose not to read them.
As for Antoine, this matter shouldn’t affect him much.
Firstly, they were right in this matter. It was not common to hear accusations about someone’s wife
being a third party in a marriage.
Secondly, she was not from this industry. The popularity was only temporary. Once other promotions
and releases began, people would likely forget about her.
In contrast, Sally was different. In the past three years, the Palmer Group’s strong support had directly
made her a top female celebrity. If the issue of her detention didn’t blow over, her career would be
ruined.
Therefore, the person who should be anxious was Sally.
That made sense. Blanche did not ask further and nodded in agreement.
She continued to casually scroll through her phone, and suddenly her eyes widened and her fingers
paused.
“Madison, come and take a look! Look at what your ex-husband has posted!”
