"Those are the injuries on Maddie's back," Sebastian answered lightly.
"Besides the scars she got from getting beaten by Cameron when she was a child, the rest are fromyour family!"
Sebastian sneered at Ethan, "President Taylor, please take a good look at the scars in the photos. Lookcarefully and see if you people deserve to be called Maddie's family!"
"It's my fault... It's all my fault..." When Crystal looked at the scars in the photo, tears welled up in hereyes.
The longer she got along with Madeline, the deeper her feelings for Madeline were.
Angie was under Michael's and her wings for most of her life. From childhood to adulthood, theypampered her and cherished her, wanting to give her the best in the world.
What about her own biological daughter?
She had lived in the world for more than twenty years, but she did not have a good life and evensuffered various abuses.
In today's society, even as servants, drivers, or gardeners, few had been beaten, but Crystal's andMichael's daughter was beaten until there were scars all over her body.
After flipping through the thick stack of photos masochistically, she almost fainted from crying.
Ethan was embarrassed.
How could he not be ashamed to request Sebastian to do things for Maddie's sake after seeing thestack of photos?
After seeing the stack of photos, how could he request Sebastian to do things for Maddie's sakebrazenly?
Sebastian was right. What right did they have to mention Madeline?
Apart from hurting her, they failed to provide her with anything.
Slowly, his expression sank as he took a seat silently.
George sighed deeply and uttered, "Young Master Hart, after all these talks, why don't you tell us whatyou want? Based on what you just said, you're planning to send Scott and Holly to jail. Is that right?"
"Yes." Sebastian looked at him and continued, "Not only that, but I also hope that you and Holly willdivorce."
"That's impossible!" Stephen was furious upon hearing that absurd request.
"Sebastian, who do you think you are to control my parents' marriage?!"
"Young Master Stephen, please don't get too worked up. I'm not meddling in Mr. Taylor's marriage. I'mjust offering him a suggestion."
Sebastian glanced at Stephen and then looked at George before saying, "If Mr. Taylor has a specialtaste for a woman who has lost her conscience like Holly Barker, I have no problem with that! It's just...""Those are the injuries on Maddie's back," Sebastian answered lightly.
Smirking, he continued, "Leigh is a tough character. She will seek her revenge on the murderers whokilled her parents. She will never give up if she fails to achieve that. Since Leigh will be signing acontract to work under me immediately, I will never watch my subordinates live in misery, unable toavenge themselves…"
Looking at George, he smiled, "When it's time for me to do justice for my subordinates, don't tell me Ididn't warn you!"
"What do you mean by that?" Stephen slammed the table angrily. "Are you threatening us?"
"I told you that I'm just giving you a suggestion." Sebastian glanced at him and said that indifferently.
"The business industry is like a battlefield. You and I are both people in the industry. If we can't come toan understanding at the dinner table, I'll see you on the battlefield. Aren't business wars the norm?"
"You..." Stephen's face turned pale as he felt his whole body shudder.
A business war!
If the Hart Family declared a business war with the Taylor Family, the Taylors would certainly be unableto compete. However, they were no easy feat either. If they brought them down, Hart Corporation wouldalso be losing a lot. Was Sebastian out of his mind?
Would he really declare war between Hart Corporation and Taylor Corporation over an insignificantperson like Leigh?
"George..." Crystal wiped the tears from her face and looked at George.
"You're my brother, but Seb is my daughter's husband and my grandson's father. If you choose topartake in a business war with Seb, the Wendel Family will not assist either of you."
George went silent for a moment before nodding. "I understand..."
Hearing that, Stephen hurriedly chimed in, "Aunt Crystal, you..."
"Stephen, that's enough." He was interrupted by Michael in the middle of his words.
Michael, who had always been kind and elegant, was now wearing a cold and stern expression. Hisgaze was as sharp as a sword as he stated, "Honestly speaking, if Crystal and your father didn't have agood relationship, I would've done my best to assist Seb."
Stephen's face twisted even more. "Uncle Michael..."
Michael ignored him and looked at George, suggesting, "George, you're not just my brother-in-law; weare also good friends. As a friend and a man, I suggest you divorce Holly..."
"Uncle Michael, how could you say that?!" Stephen was anxious and angry.
"That's our mother you're talking about! As our uncle, how could you encourage my parents to
divorce?!"
"Stephen..." Michael looked at him with cold eyes.
"If you marry a wife who killed two people, treat it like nothing happened, and watch a six-year-old girlsent to the orphanage all alone after her whole family died, will you still stay in the marriage?"
"I..." Stephen was stunned as his face turned green before turning pallid.
"That's different! How can the woman I like be the same as my own mother? No matter what she didwrong, she still loves me and my brother. She's still our mother!"
"What's the difference?" Michael looked into his eyes and asked, "Holly is your mother. That's right, butshe is also your father's wife. If you don't want to share a bed with a wicked woman, do you think yourfather is willing to?"
"No… It doesn't work like that… It doesn't..." Stephen shook his head with a pale face.
"My parents have been married for more than twenty years, and they have a great relationship. Howcould they get a divorce?"
"Why not?" Sebastian looked at him with a leisurely smile.
"Your father didn't know what a beast your mother was before, so they can still live with each other.Now that your father has discovered your mother's true colors, how do you expect him to spend therest of his life with a beast?"
"Know your limits, Sebastian Hart!" Stephen was furious now.
"No matter what, she is my mother. How dare you insult her?"
"If you don't want to be scolded by others, don't do things that deserve a scolding." Sebastian eyed himindifferently.
"I'm just telling the truth. Don't you think that what your mother and your uncle did was inhumane?"
"No, it's not like that!" Stephen shook his head and explained, "It was an accident. What they did wasunintentional! They were just frightened and too scared to be sent to jail, so they paid someone else totake the blame! They… They aren't bad people. All… All of this is just an accident!"
Sebastian snickered, "Even if the deaths of Leigh's parents were an accident, what about the death ofLeigh's grandfather? Didn't they think about Leigh's future after her parents died and her only relative,who was her grandfather, was killed?"
He then sneered again, "Of course, they don't think about it! They are beasts disguised as humans!They have no sympathy at all and only want to live a peaceful life. Why would they care about whathappens to a little orphan?"
