"Helcia, do you realize you just did something extremely stupid?!"
As soon as I stepped out of the courtroom with my husband, Madeline suddenly blocked my path and dragged me to the side. She looked furious, so furious that I swore I could almost see flames shooting out of her eyes.
To answer her, I simply shrugged. "What stupid thing?" I said casually. "Sending your mother to prison? She deserved it."
Madeline's face filled in anger. She suddenly reached out, grabbed a chunk of my hair, and yanked me toward her. "Do you even realize that having a criminal in the family will ruin our image in the entertainment industry?!"
I narrowed my eyes, shocked that she was more worried about her reputation than her mother's life falling apart.
Oh, poor Addison.
Her husband threw her away so easily, and her precious daughter didn't even care about her well-being. Instead, she only cared about her own reputation.
