Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 459 A Law-Abiding Good Citizen?

Hearing this, Sadie was also distressed. She sighed deeply and said, "I'm sorry..., Iif only I had the courage to call the police at that time." "Why didn't you call the police?" Kathleen questioned in agitation, "Why?!?"

"I was going to call when I saw what was happening, but then their people spotted me and started chasing me. At that moment, someone intervened and stopped them. I thought it was all over, but..."

"Who stepped in to stop it?" Kathleen zeroed in on the key point, pressing for answers, "Why would you think they could put an end to it? Was it Ronan?"

"No, it was Vincent..." Sadie explained, "I figured that since you were once family, Vincent would surely save Leah. Besides, what was happening was illegal. He would never let it continue.""I figured, after all, we were once family, Vincent would surely save Leah. Plus, what was happening was illegal, he would never let it continue..."

"Family? What family are you talking about?" Kathleen wailed, "Don't you know that Vincent has always resented Leah? His intervention was just for show, to make you drop the idea of calling the police. Once you left, he would only attack Leal more viciously."

"You're kidding?" Sadie was stunned. "Why would Vincent hold a grudge against Leah? Even if there were everyday squabbles, it wouldn't lead to..."

"Forget it. It's no use talking to you about this." Kathleen said, frustrated, "Sadie, you'd better pray for good luck to stick with you. With your naivety, if you don't wise up, you're going to end up in a real mess someday!" With that, Kathleen hung up...

Sadie listened to the dial tone on the phone, her skin crawling as she recalled Kathleen's words... 'Could it really be true about Vincent? Was he conspiring with Arianna against Leah?'

She reflected on Leah's past behavior, recalling how haughty and dismissive she used to be, showing little respect to anyone. Perhaps that's when she had inadvertently offended Vincent, causing him to hold a grudge. It didn't seem entirely improbable...She thought back to when Leah was haughty and dismissive, never showing anyone respect. Maybe that's when she crossed Vincent, and he harbored a grudge. It wasn't entirely out of the realm of possibility... However, as she pondered her past interactions with Vincent-whom she had known since she was young, back when she was dating Ronan―he had always appeared to possess integrity and was renowned for standing up for what was right. Even during Sadie's difficult times, Vincent had treated her with kindness and respect. But then, thinking about the past and her interactions with Vincent, whom she'd known since she was young and dating Ronan, he had always seemed to have integrity and was known to stand up for what's right. Even when Sadie had fallen on hard times, Vincent had treated her with respect and kindness.

She didn't want to believe that Vincent could be the person Kathleen had described...

Still, looking at it from another perspective, Vincent's respect could have been mutual, given that she had always treated him well.

Leah, however, had never regarded him as a person, frequently resorting to derogatory names like "watchdog" and disregarding his dignity. Therefore, it was possible that Vincent could have done something so drastic...However, considering it from a different angle, Vincent's respect might have been mutual, since she had always treated him well. Leah, on the other hand, had never seen him as a person, often calling him names like "watchdog" and trampling over his dignity. So, it was possible that Vincent could do something drastic...

The more Sadie thought, the more frightened she became. Kathleen's last words suddenly seemed very reasonable. If she continued to be naive and didn't wise up, she wouldn't even know what hit her.

While she was lost in thought, her phone rang again, this time from an unfamiliar number. Hesitantly, Sadie answered, "Hello?"

"It's Arianna," came the arrogant voice on the other end.

"What do you want?" Sadie's tone was icy.

"Let's meet and talk," Arianna commanded.

"We have nothing to discuss," Sadie said, ready to end the call.

"Think carefully." Arianna sneered. "I know all your family's secrets, including the letter your father left for Mason..."

Sadie froze.: "What do you mean?"

"Your father mentioned in the letter who was behind his downfall. Don't you want to know?" Arianna asked proudly. "If you want to know, come to Maple Bistro! And don't worry, I won't hurt you; I'm a law-abiding citizen!"
