Chapter 82
So she got 100,000 from Leonie and gave it to Baber, and then Baber said that their Deputy Director w
ouldn’t even spare a nce at a gift worth 100,000, and suggested her taking out more money to get th
is thing done at once,
Sallie knew Leonie had been a little hesitant, and Sallie
didn’t dare to ask her for money. So she stole a 2–
carat diamond from her family’s collection and gave it to
Baber.
At that time, Baber was pursuing a woman named Noreen, so he gave her the jade piece.
Coincidentally, Noreen and one of Sallie’s ssmates were cousins. They bumped into each other at th
e club, and when Sallie saw the jewelry around Noreen’s neck and found out it was given by Baber, sh
e finally realized she was been scammed.
She and two of her ssmates beat Noreen up in a fit of grief and anger. It’s said they even broke her
head.
But this Noreen chick wasn’t a pushover, she was Charlie’s girlfriend.
So now, Sallie was locked up in the police station, and Noreen was going to sue her
If Sallie gets charged and sentenced, she’ll be doing at least three years behind bars!
Seeing the mess, Baber ran off overnight.
After such a mess, Stanley went home and scolded Leonie, who cried a river. “Sallie swore up and dow
n that Baber was reliable, I didn’t know he was a scammer!”
Hans, standing on the stairs, watched the drama unfold. He had warned them already, but
they didn’t believe him!
Leonie was filled with remorse. “What should we do now? The people from Snowy Studios called me e
arlier and told me Baber was a fraud, but I didn’t believe them!”
Stanley shook with rage. “You brainless, stupid woman! The downfall of this family will be because of y
ou!”
Leonie sobbed “Don’t scold me now. The most important thing is to save Sallie. She can’t go to jail!”
T
A furious look on his face, Stanley replied, “How can we
save her? She hit Charlie’s girlfriend! Don’t you know who Charlie is? He’s the young master of the Ja
mes family! I tried calling his father, and he didn’t even bother with me, just hung up the phone”
Leonie wiped away
her tears “Let’s go to your dad and have him call the James family. At least they would show your dad s
ome respect.”
Stanley sat on the sofa, looking worried “Our Macin family is not what it used to be. Now it’s the Lam
ont family, the James family, and the Scott family who rule J City That Charlie is a hot–

headed and unpredictable guy, not someone to mess with. Even if your dad pleads with him, he might
not treat us any differently.” Hearing mention of the Lamont
family, Leonie was reminded of something. “Let’s seek help from the Lamonts. I heard that Charlie and
Jonathan are good friends. We can ask Sabina for help. She works for Jonathan and should be able to
convince him.”
Hans ran down the stairs. “I think asking E for help would be more effective!”
“You little rascal, don’t make things worse!” Leonie irritably pushed Hans away.
Stanley was considering Leonie’s words. “We can give Sabina a call.”
“Okay, I’ll call her now!” Leonie turned back to find her phone.
Seeing that they still didn’t trust him, Hans angrily shouted, “You’re all fools!”
“What did you say, you little brat?” Stanley snapped
Hans stared back defiantly. “You’ll regret it sooner orter!”
Leonie found her phone and said
to Hans, “Hans, go upstairs and y, okay? Stop making trouble, OK?”
“Hurry up and make the call!” urged Stanley
Leonie found Sabina’s number and dialed anxiously
After six or seven rings, the call was answered. Sabina whispered, “Auntie, what’s up? I’m in a meeting
!”
Leonie choked back
tears “Sabina, I didn’t mean to bother you, but your cousin Sallie is in trouble, and only you can help he
r!”
Sabina stepped out of the meeting room. “What happened?”
