Forgive Us, My Dear Sister (The Miraculous Simone Gray)

Chapter 339 What Does This Have To Do With Me?

Leon was rendered speechless by Melinda’s words. He cast a cautious glance at Simone, fearful of

any potential misunderstanding.

With a hint of impatience creeping into his voice, he retorted, “Mother, there’s no need for you to fret

over my affairs or obsess over them.”

Having grown up alongside Simone, he understood her well. He recognized that she wasn’t playing

hard to get, but was instead being utterly indifferent.

He continued, “Banny committed a crime and should face the consequences under the law. His actions

are so grave that no one can absolve him. Don’t persist in trying to save him; it won’t end well for you

either.”

Upon hearing Leon’s words, Melinda’s face flushed with anger. “You heartless creature, he’s your own

cousin! How can you stand to see him languish in prison?”

She had already helped her maternal family rise to prominence when Banny was born.

He was raised as a pampered child, unaccustomed to any hardship.

Leon was taken aback. “Of course, I can bear it, and I would even applaud. If he can’t endure the

suffering, what about the people he humiliated and those who were sold abroad? Won’t they suffer

too?”

“I just can’t comprehend why you feel the need to financially support your maternal family every month.

And under the guise of my father’s name, you aided your maternal family’s company. They’re not

exactly strapped for cash either.

“Why did Banny still engage in such reckless and criminal activities?” Melinda hesitated. She too was

curious.

Every year, she provided substantial individual subsidies to several nephews and nieces. She also

gifted. them houses and cars.

Banny should not be in need of money, so why did he resort to illegal activities? He must have been led

astray by someone.

The more she pondered, the more she was convinced of this.

“He must have been led astray by someone. Perhaps these actions were carried out by others, and he

was merely a bystander or was framed. Banny may be frivolous, but he’s not inherently evil.”

Leon found Melinda’s words ludicrous.

“Mother, you’re utterly deluded. If this kind of person isn’t evil, then who is?” Melinda was displeased.

“Why are you speaking in such a manner? He’s my nephew. How can you speak so ill of your own

cousin? If he’s evil, then what does that make my parents and sisters to you?”

Leon retorted, “The parents and siblings of an evil person, of course.”

“He committed such heinous acts, all because you indulged him. In your eyes, he’s not even

considered evil, and you want to save him.“

“It’s clear that your family is naturally predisposed to wickedness, and you, Mother, are no different. It’s

ingrained in your bones, a lack of moral values and boundless malevolence.”

He couldn’t help but voice his thoughts. Now he understood.

Banny was not a good person, and neither were the people in his family.

Melinda and the people from the Steward Family were no different.

Melinda was so furious that she nearly smashed her phone. “You ungrateful wretch. How dare you call

yourself my son?”

He had the audacity to say that she, Teresa, and others were all wicked, with no limits to their cruelty.

Her rage was uncontrollable, and she couldn’t hold back her scolding.

But Leon was no longer the son who yearned for maternal love and was obedient.

As soon as she started scolding, Leon hung up the phone.

He also blocked Melinda.

Listening to the busy tone on her phone, Melinda was so incensed that she wanted to rush to Cubilis to

confront Leon, her ungrateful son.

After hanging up the phone, Leon noticed everyone looking at him with a mix of sympathy and

speechlessness.

He cleared his throat and pointed to his head. “My mother has some issues, so there’s no need for you

to worry about her.”

Others also thought Melinda was unhinged, and she seemed to be mentally unstable.

She was still insistent on saving Banny. Who knows what she was thinking?

But to be able to spoil Banny to this extent, Melinda was certainly not a good person either. She indeed

lacked moral values and boundaries.

Having such a mother and maternal family, Leon was truly unfortunate.

Fortunately, Simone had broken up with him. Otherwise, with such a mother-in-law, she would be

utterly repulsed.

Simone had keen hearing and overheard what Melinda said on the phone.

She could guess what Melinda was plotting.

It seems that the lesson was not harsh enough. She needs to do more.

Everyone sat and chatted for a while before retiring to their rooms.

After a while, Simone’s phone rang. She saw an unfamiliar number but answered it anyway. “Hello!”

Melinda’ voice came from the other end. ‘Simone, it’s Melinda

Simone raised an eyebrow. “You called me. What do you need?” Melinda had been upset by Leon

earlier and couldn’t contact Adam and Skyler. Then, her family started pressuring her, urging her in

various ways. They told her that she must save Banny. Otherwise, she shouldn’t bother returning to her

family. Melinda thought about it and reluctantly decided to find someone. She got Simone’s phone

number to call her personally.

She asked, “What do you want in order to spare Banny?” Simone sneered. “Melinda, Leon said you

have some mental issues, and now it seems to be true.”

“I suggest you seek medical help. Banny committed a crime. You should consult a lawyer and ask if the

law will let him off.”

So, what does this have to do with me?” Melinda was taken aback. She never expected that Leon

would tell Simone that she had a mental illness.

She loathed that abomination to the core.

She suppressed her anger and said, “Banny is in trouble because of you, so you should take

responsibility.”

She threatened, “If you still aspire to marry into the Gray Family in the future, find a way to save Banny.

Otherwise, I will never accept you.” (D)

Simone laughed. “How audacious and self-absorbed do you have to be to utter such egotistical words?

I have no interest in marrying into the Gray Family. Honestly, even if you come begging on your knees,

I still won’t marry into the Gray Family.”

She sneered. “You absolutely won’t accept me? Who are you? Do I need someone like you to accept

me? Although I left the Gray Family, I used to be a true heiress of a prominent family.”

“You, a lowly creature, where do you find the audacity to criticize me? Just because you are

shameless?” The more Melinda cared about her status, the more Simone wanted to provoke her.

Indeed, Melinda’s expression darkened.

“You little harlot.”

Simone retorted, “What kind of person are you to insult others? You are an old harlot.”

Melinda shouted with anger, “You! Simone, I’m warning you, you better be wise and save Banny.”

“Otherwise, not only will I prevent Leon from being with you, but I will also make you suffer.”

She was serious.

If Simone didn’t save Banny, she would find someone to deal with this little vixen.

She would have someone strip Simone naked and even take turns tormenting her, then release videos

and photos.

Undoubtedly, this would ruin Simone’s reputation, making her regret so much that she couldn’t even

cry.

By then, Leon would no longer harbor any feelings for this worthless person.
