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 slapped Virginia on the other side of her cheek.
Suddenly, Virginia’s cheeks were symmetrical.
The loud slap 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
slap 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 slapping, with tears spilling out from the pain. Being
slapped by so many people in sight, she was both humiliated and infuriated.
“You….
The word “you” had just left her mouth when another slap from Rosalind followed, viciously adding
another slap 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 slapping 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.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“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 the company. Rosalind is a design consultant hired by the company. 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 relationship 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 the company 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 our company’s profits have at least tripled. What is Virginia
compared to her? If it weren’t for you insisting on bringing Virginia to the company, with her abilities,
how could she have become 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 accuse 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,
“Mom, I didn’t mean that. You are my mother. You’re very important to me. But this is the company. I
love some business to do, and I don’t want to argue with you now. You can go back first. I will come
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 the company, 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.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeonardo couldn’t tell Maria about the truth behind Virginia and Dylan, 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 the company, my
abilities might still be inferior to Rosalind’s. Leonardo made this decision for the sake of the company,
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 becoming 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?”
