Chapter 218
Leonardo had been busy all day. He just wanted to sleep, but he was disturbed by the hurried phone
ringing and frowned. Seeing that the caller ID was An, Leonardo intuitively felt trouble again.
“What’s the matter. An?”
“Mr. Brooks, Mrs. Maria Brooks has brought Ms. York back. I can’t persuade her.”
Leonardo frowned and thought, “It’s not good news,”
“An, leave it alone. Ill deal with it tomorrow.”
However, before Leonardo could solve the matter the next day, Maria took Virginia to the BUT Group
and found Rosalind.
Sering Maria and Virginia standing in front of her, Rosalind fel a sense of unease. Not wanting any
trouble to arise, she promptly took them to her office
After they were the only three, Rosalind sat on the main seat and looked at them indifferently,
“Tell me, why do youe to mypany so early in the morning?”
Rosalind didn’t want to see them, so her attitude was not good.
“What kind of attitude is thác No matter what, I am your elder, and is this how you treat your elders?
You’re so rude.”
Rosalind smiled sarcastically.
“I’m sorry, but just because someone is older doesn’t mean they can boss me around. Does that mean
any random old woman cane and dictate to me?”
Maria pointed at Rosalind’s nose and flushed with anger.
“You…
Virginia, standing by, grew impatient as Maria avoided addressing the main issue. Nevertheless, she
kept a sweet smile and gently condorted Maria by softly caressing her back and speaking in a soothing
tone.
“Mom, calm down. Be careful and don’t pay any attention to her. Let’s get to the point”
Sensing theforting actions and words, Maria’s anger dwindles a little. She appreciated Virginia’s
pleasant personality and how she considered her health, unlike Rosalind, whom Maria believedcked
any form of proper upbringing
“You’re right. It’s not worth it to be angry with her.”“
Maria gently stroked the back of Virginia’s hand with her wrinkled hands and smiled kindly, which
differed from her fierce look on Rosalind.
After saying that, she turned to look at Rosalind. Her thin and narrose cheeks immediately darkened
“Today, I’m here to inform you that the cooperation between Brooks Group and BUT Group has been
terminated. You will no longer be the design consultant of Brooks Group! Never try to seduce Leonardo
in Brooks Group anymore.
Rosalind seemed to have long guessed why Maria and Virginia came here, so she was not surprised
when Maria made these demands
She took a sip of the coffee before her and nced at them.
“Regardingpany coborations, it is customary forpany representatives to approach me for
negotiations. I’m unaware of your role in thepany, Mrs. Brooks. Could you please rify?”
Rosalind’s cal attitude made Maria angry.
In the past, Rosalind had always been a timid quail in front of Maria. She would never dare to talk to
Maria like that. But now Rosalud éven dared to question her. How could Maria not be angry!
Tm the mother of the CEO of Brooks Group What position do you think I hold?”
Rosalind sided contemptuously
“I was unaware that thepany also had the title of the CEO’s mother! Mrs. Brooks, youe from a
prestigious family and seem to have much more knowledge and understanding than I do
Rosalind didn’t want to bother talking with Marks anymore. After all, it was no longer critical for her to
be the design. consultant of the Brooks Group. She did not need to go made the Brooks Group to get
information
And it was uncertain whether she seduced Leonardo or he seduced her
After all, Leonardo now lived across from her house. He always kept an eye on her and even often took
her to his ce.
Technically speaking, Leonardo was trying to seduce her. So it would be better for him to deal with
these troublesome things alone.
Chapter 218
“Mrs. Brooks, you are Leonardo’s mother, after all. Since you don’t want BUT Group to cooperate with
Brooks Group, 1 won’t force so, let Leonardo send someone to terminate the contract, and remember
to bring the liquidated damages together.”
Liquidated damages? What do you mean?”
Hearing the liquidated damages, Maria was immediately excited
“Don’t you know! Whoever wants to terminate thetract in advance has to pay liquidated damages.
But Brooks Group is rich and generous. It should not be a big penalty. You don’t need to be so nervous,
Mrs. Brooks”
Rosalind smiled sweetly
However, Mana was unhappy. She red at Rosalind angrily with a stern face,
“How much is the liquidated damages?”
“Not much. It’s only 10 million dors”
Rosalind smiled and stretched out one finger. Her tone was very light, but she almost annoyed Mari
“10 million dors? Why don’t you go loot it?”
Seeing Maria angry, Rosalind was even happier..
“You can be cautious, Mrs. Brooks. I’m aw-abi ding citizen. How could you let me steal money? 10
million dors was set by your good son Leonardo himself, and 1 dorit ask for more
Before Maria could say anything, Virginis jumped up.
“That’s impossible. I have read the contract, and the liquidated damages are only 100 thousand
dors.”
Rosalind naked at Virginia calmly She frowned slightly and said regretfully.
“Ms. York. Oh, you don’t hold a position now. You may have seen the previous contract but not the
supplementary one signedter. Why don’t you check if it is 10 million dors?
Rosalind was telling the truth. This is a supplementary contract signed by Leonardo after Brooks Group
sharel midlers wanted to force Rosalind to leave, which directly raised the liquidated damages to 10
million dors to prevent Roulind from terminating the contract.
Leonardo wanted to raise the liquidated damages to 20 million dors at first. but she strongly opposed
it. So r finally set at penalty of 10 million dors.
Koulind didn’t want to terminate the contract, but MA Jurt her heart.
rn wanted to The termination money of 10 million dors would
Sure enough, as soon as Rosalind finishind her words, Maria was in a bad mood, and her face became
sterner, She pped the table and shouted sharply,
“No, I disagree! Terminate the contract and you won’t get a penny of liquidated damnges.”
Seeing Maria get angry, Rosalind was still calin.
“It’s not up to you or me to decide the amount of liquidated damages. You should go and talk with our
legal counsel”
After saying that, she made a gesture. It meant to drive them away.
However, Maria didn’t intend to leave when Rosalind wanted to drive her away. She narrowed her eyes
and stared at Rosalind
I don’t care what koud of legal adviser you rernit. I said there would be no liqted damages. Don’t
forget how you married into the Brooks family. If you don’t want me to expose the scandals you did, you
shouldn’t think about the liquidated damages.”N?velDrama.Org content rights.
