Chapter 210


    Chapter 210


    Virginia covered her red and swollen face, looking at Rosalind in disbelief. “You bit ch! How dare you hit


    me?”


    Rosalind smiled contemptuously. Tve already beaten you up. But you’re asking me if I dare. Are you


    stu pid?”


    Then she reached out and pped Virginia on the other side of her cheek.


    Suddenly, Virginia’s cheeks were symmetrical.


    The loud p in the face instantly attracted a lot of attention from around, but no one dared to


    approach.


    However, Rosalind didn’t care at all. Instead, she looked at Virginia coldly and said word by word. This


    p is for you cursing me all the time. I have a bad temper. If someone dares to scold me, I can’t help


    but do it. So you’d better keep your


    mouth clean.”


    Virginia’s cheeks were red and swollen from the pping, with tears spilling out from the pain. Being


    pped by so many people in sight, she was both humiliated and infuriated.


    “You….


    The word “you” had just left her mouth when another p from Rosalind followed, viciously adding


    another p on Virginia’s already red and swollen check


    “Oh. I’m so sorry, I thought you were going to scold me again. My hand just moved. I don’t think we


    have to talk anymore. Otherwise, I can’t help pping you a few more times.”


    After saying that, Rosalind ignored the angry look of Virginia and strode away with a contemptuous


    smile.


    Meanwhile, Leonardo’s face darkened with his voice cold. “Mom, Ill take you home.”


    “What? I’ve only just arrived, and you’re going to kick me out? What the hell did that bi tch give you?


    How could you do this


    to me!


    Maria sat still on the safa, looking at Leonardo with deep disappointment and anger.


    Maria’s son, who was raised hard by her, wanted to kick her out for a woman like Rosalind. How could


    she not be disappointed or angry? She almost wanted to tear Rosalind apart.


    “Mom This is thepany. Rosalind is a design consultant hired by thepany. How can we work if


    you suddenly scold her? Besides, Virginia has been fired. What do you want to bring her here for?”


    Facing Maria, Leonardo was a little helpless and annoyed. Although he was still in the office, Leonardo


    couldn’t wait to leave her to chase Rosalind.


    The rtionship between him and Rosalind finally moved forward. He didn’t want to go back to zero


    again.


    “Work? Humph! Talking about work, tell me why Rosalind came to thepany as a design consultant.


    As a design director, Virginia did well. Why did you fire her? Did Rosalind instigate you?”


    During the three years that Rosalind had been with the Brooks family, Maria had never seen her do any


    design work. However, Leonardo asked Rosalind to be a design consultant. So Maria suspected that


    Rosalind was here to swindle Leonardo’s wealth.


    “Mom, please be reasonable. Rosalind is a world-renowned designer. Her designs have sold


    exceptionally well this quarter, and ourpany’s profits have at least tripled. What is Virginia


    compared to her? If it weren’t for you insisting on bringing Virginia to thepany, with her abilities,


    how could she have be the Design Director of Brooks Group?” Leonardo’s patiener was wearing


    thin, and he reclined on the sofa, rubbing his slightly throbbing forehead.


    However, Maria was so angry that she pointed at Leonardo with her fingers trembling.


    “What did you say? Do you use me of being unreasonable for Rosalind? Have you really been


    enchanted by that vixen to the point of abandoning your own mother? Is this how you treat your own


    mother?”


    Leonardo furrowed his brows, feeling that Maria was being unreasonable. This endless argument


    seemed pointless, and all he wanted now was to quickly resolve the matter at hand and go find


    Rosalind.


    So he softened his tone and persuaded Maria in a low voice, N?velDrama.Org content rights.


    “Mom, I didn’t mean that. You are my mother. You’re very important to me. But this is thepany. I


    love some business to do, and I don’t want to argue with you now. You can go back first. I wille


    back to see you when I have time


    However, Maria sat down, with her arms crossed around her chest, looking at Leonardo indifferently.


    “If you want for to go, then fine. Today, Irt’s terminate the cooperation with Rosalind and reinstate


    Virginia as the Design Director of Brooks Group”


    “Impossible!” Leonardo refused without thinking.


    “Why not? Leonardo, don’t forget that you and Rosalind have divorced. You are not a couple now, and


    she won’t always

    consider your interests. But Virginia is different. She has always liked you, and she even gave birth to


    your son. You two will eventually get married, and her heart is with you and Brooks Groups With


    Virginia at thepany, I can be at ease.”


    Sering Leonardo’s firm attitude, Maria suddenly softened her tone and began to reason with him.


    However, Maria’s words not only didn’t change Leonardo’s mind but made his gaze colder.


    “Mom, I’ve told you more than once that it’s impossible between Virginia and me. You better give up on


    that idea, and besides, Virginia is not as simple as you think. You should keep your distance from her.”


    Leonardo couldn’t tell Maria about the truth behind Virginia and Dn, but he had to remind Maria to be


    on guard against Virginia.


    With her straightforward and simple-minded nature, Maria was easily led by Virginia, just like what was


    happening now, It seemed that Virginia had to be sem away soon.


    When Leonardo was lost in thoughs, Virginia walked in with a smile.


    “Maria, don’t make things difficult for Leonardo. Although I also want to contribute to thepany, my


    abilities might still be inferior to Rosalind’s. Leonardo made this decision for the sake of thepany,


    not because he was influenced by Rosalind.”


    It sounded like Virginia was defending Leonardo, but every sentence revealed that it was precisely


    because of Rosalind that Leonardo had fired her.


    Virginia’s methods were not very clever, and Leonardo could easily see through her little tricks, but


    Maria couldn’t understand.


    ne for you!


    “Listen, listen! Even now, Virginia is still speaking up for you. Can that little vixen, Rosalind, do the


    Maria lightly patted Virginia’s back, showing a face of tenderness and satisfaction, then turned to


    Leonardo with a stern look and a strong tone


    “I just came back today and feel a bit tired, so I won’t argue with you now. However, you must resolve


    the matter of Virginia bing the Design Director of Brooks Group and terminating the contract with


    Rosalind as soon as possible. Otherwise, don’t consider me your mother!”


    Maria was treating them with the opposite attitude. It felt like she was the mother of Virginia, not


    Leonardo.


    With that, Maria took Virginia’s hand intimately and left the Brooks Group proudly as before.


    Jacob watched Maria and Virginia leave before he dared to walk into Leonardo’s office carefully. “Mr.


    Brooks, are you okay?”
