The Miraculous Simone Gray novel Chapter 429

Leon glanced at Simone, his expression hesitant as he said, "Simone, I apologize for my mother's actions. I'm sorry."

These guys keep shifting the blame to someone else. Leon deserved this. She looked at Leon coldly and said, "Your mother hired a warlock to harm me. I won't let it go so easily. Your apology means nothing. Your family better be prepared."

During the earlier discussion in the tent, Gwen suggested that her mother face the punishment she deserved. They would allow no room for leniency in the law, or Melinda might continue to engage in even more outrageous acts in the future.

Leon felt embarrassed and said, "My mother was in the wrong. She should be punished, and we have no objections."

This matter was originally unreasonable on his mother's part, and her actions had also violated the laws of the special department. His mother probably never considered the consequences she would face if things went wrong. She likely thought that Adam would bail her out no matter what.

Simone nodded and said, "Alright, that's settled. You can continue to endure it, and hopefully, you'll learn your lesson." After saying that, she turned and went back to the tent.

Leon watched Simone walk away, feeling lost. His mother's actions had only widened the gap between him and Simone. A sour and powerless feeling welled up in his heart.

Harold reached out and patted Leon's shoulder. "Leon, let's not dwell on the past. It's because of your mother's actions that you and Simone can never have a future together."

Leon looked at him coldly and said, "I don't need your input." He had already come to this realization himself, which made him even more miserable. He sneered. "You scumbags, who were so eager to betray me before, I won't forget this."

Harold touched his nose and said, "Leon, to be honest, we were really angry about what happened today. We know it's not your fault, but she's your mother, and we couldn't help but feel some anger towards you. But we're friends. Once the anger passes, there's nothing left. Before, we were just joking with Simone to lighten the mood."

Blaming Leon was never their intention. If Simone had said she wouldn't help them, then no matter how much they begged, it would be useless. The previous incident had been awkward, which was why Harold had deliberately said those things. He wanted to emphasize that it was Melinda who had gone too far, and Leon was just a scapegoat.

He couldn't help but add, "However, your mother did go too far. She doesn't care about our lives. She knew that both you and Gwen were here in the mountains, yet she still invited this warlock. In her mind, your life and death mean nothing to her. If I had a mother like her, I would cut off all ties with her like Simone did with her mother."

He was very angry as he spoke. That malicious woman didn't even care about Gwen's safety. How could she be a mother? Just as he finished speaking, Titus pushed him.

With a cold look, Titus said, "Hey, leave Simone's case out of this. Just talk about your own matters; don't make random comparisons."

Harold was truly cunning. He always liked to hurt them emotionally. But when it came to encouraging Leon to cut ties with his mother, he was on Harold's side. Titus looked at Leon and said, "Leon, I also think it's time to cut ties."

Leon took a deep breath and said, "I know!" After speaking, he turned and walked away.

The other four didn't dare to bother Simone anymore and reluctantly returned to their previous seats. They played cards to distract themselves and pass the time, all the while cursing Melinda together.

The Gray brothers were also planning to call Steven early the next morning to complain. Melinda had gone too far. First, she harmed their mother, and now Simone. And she didn't even spare them. If it weren't for Simone's timely intervention, their lives would have been lost. Although their father allowed them to roam freely, he still cared about their safety and well-being. He would take practical actions, unlike their mother, who was only all talk. No one would let this matter go, not even Simone.

Early the next morning, as the sun was rising, the special department personnel arrived on the mountain and took the warlock away. Simone had sent the recorded video to the deputy minister the previous night, providing evidence of the warlock's evil deeds and Melinda's involvement. She strongly demanded that the special department provide an explanation. Zac and the others also informed their families and put pressure on the special department. Melinda wouldn't be able to escape now. Simone no longer had to worry about the people behind Melinda and could start settling scores with her.

The warlock, on the other hand, felt relieved when he was taken away by the special department personnel. He was still in excruciating pain from the broken joints and acupoints inflicted on him by the explosion the previous night. He now felt both hatred and fear towards Simone. In his mind, once he retrieved the little treasure, he would keep his distance from this fierce woman.
