Kevin was unhappy when Paulina pinched his face. His face hurt. After hearing Paulina’s words, Hevin became rude,

Hearing Keen’s words, Paulina pulled on a wry face and pretended to grab Kevin’s arm “You brac! Why are you so rude to me? Come here and I’ll teach you a levinn!”

Kevin quickly ran and hid himself behind Rosalind and stuck his tongue out at Paulina.

The other three people were all amused by Kevin and laughed

Yanna smiled brillantly and said, “Auntie Paulina, you misunderstood Kevin. He means that you are at your best agel

Paulina looked at the two kids and smiled, “Wow, Yanna, you’re so sweet! Rosalind, how did you raise them up? Why are they so adorable?”

Rosalind burst into laughter and said jokingly. “Do you the kids? Well, you can have kids by yoursel

Paulina said, “I don’t dare to do that. After seeing how your mamaze

image went. Paulina rewind that she should not have said this so she humedy stopped speaking and looked at Rosalind in embarrassment.

Rosalind just smiled and she didn’t mind it.

Paulina immediately changed the topic. “Have you seen your parents? How are they doing!”

Rosalind sad sincerely, “Damian told me that they were fire. He asked me to handle the company’s things first before visiting them. Thank you lor taking care of them in the past years. I would have been so worried if you hadn’t taken care of them.”

Paulina said, “eid what I should do. Your parents 100 care of me after my parenty artist. That was what i should do

Then Paulina took out an envelope from her handbag, and anded it to Rosalind Paulina smiled, “There will be a charity event spon. A lot of businessmen all be there. This is a good opportunity for your company I have got an invitation for you Remember to be there.”

Rosalind put the invitation letter in her bag and smiled at Paulina, “Thank you!”

Paulina said impatiently. “Don’t be so polite. When will you go to the office? Who will take care of your kids then?”

Rosalind gently stroked the soft hair of anna and Kevin and said, “I’ve been resting for a low days. I will go to the office tomorrow and they will go to a kindergarten near our home. It will be convenient

Paulina ate a shrimp and smiled cunningly, “That is great. I bought a new house in your neighborhood because I wanted to be closer to you, I happen to have not had many events to attend recently if you parto work, I can take care of them!”

Rosalind thought Paulina’s words were heartwarming. 5–e knew that Faulina wanted to take care of her, Yanna, and Kevin. She was touched. Her eyes were slightly wet. But she didn’t say thank you. Instead, she just nodded with a smile.

Rosalind thought, “I never forget your kindness to me

Looking at Rosalind who was quiet and soft. Paulina felt much distressed.

Paulina remembered how innocent and carefree Rosalind used to be, it had only been a few years and Rosalind got totally different, which made- Paulina feel heartbroken,

Yanna smiled and said, “Rosalind, I’m full, I want to play with fewn over there?”

Rosalind nodded slightly with a gentle smile. “Go ahead. Don’t go too far away and come back soon?

Aher the two kids ran away, Paulina cut the steak with her knife. She looked at Rosalind with her big bright eyes with delicate makeup. After hesitating for a while, she ventured, “Rosalind, does he know you’re back?”

Rosalind raised her eyebrow sightly and looked at Paulina in confusion, “What? Who?”

Paulina put down the kafe and fork and asked, “I mean Leunardo

Rosalind seemed to have known Paulina would as this question so she answered without hesitation, “What does he have to do with this? We divorced a long time ago!”

Rosalind thought. “Besides, Leonardo must have married Virginia Aber all, they have a baby. And Maria liked Virginia so much.”

Moreover, Leonardo was probably the murderer of Rosalind’s father. So, Leonando was probably her enemy. Why would she contact her enemy? Paulina said, “Why are you thinking in this way? You loved him so much. Don’t you think it was a pity that you divorced?” Paulina had always been Rosalind’s best friend. Paulina witnessed how Rosalind crarly pursued Leonanda, From Paulina’s point of view, loved Leonardo very much at that time. Paulina dir’t believe that Rosalind had gotten over Lepnando after she suffered so much for him.

Rosalind

Rosalind said, “ho. I was too young and too ignorant, I thought it was love and I thought it would last forever. In fact, it was just an obsession. After a

le, I calmed down and realized that I didn’t love him that much, Divorce was the right thing to co, It is not a pity”

Rosolind was calm and faintly smiling. She covered all the sad memories with her smile.

In

the morning, Rosalind walked into the design directors office in the Clusia branch of BUT Group carrying a cup of latte, her favorite.

11:3

Rosalind put down the latte on the table and stood by the window. She looked around and thought the office was satisfying. Fmm the windows of the office, she could see a theater in Jarvos and a riveron which ships traveled

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Rosalind sald without luming around, “Please come in!”

The door was opened from the outside. Susan, Rosalind’s secretary respectfully said, “ths. Jansen, the secretary of the Brooks Group’s CED called to invite you for dinner to talk about business cooperation.”

Rosalind didn’t react at the moment and asked subconsciously, “Brooks Group?”

Susan thought that Rosalind didn’t know a lot about the companies in Haldorin so she replied, “Yeah, Brooks Group, which is ranked first in Hallorin!”

Rosaline thought, The CEO of Brooks Group? Lesnardo?

Why does he want to invite me for dinner? Does he know that I am back? How come? Except for Damian and Paulina, no one knows ths. How can

Leonarde know al:nut 27‘

Rosalind said coldly, “Retuse him. Tell him that I am busy!”

Rosalind didn’t want to see Leonardo no matter whether he knew that she was back. They had cloned so there was no need to see him or cooperate

with him.

Susan was stunned. She didn’t expect that Rosalind would refuse without hesitation. Susan wondered whether Rosalind knew who the CEO of Brooks Group was

It was Brones Groups CEO, Leonardo, the most powerful guy in Haldorin. A lot of people wanted to see him but failed. But now, Rosalind showed not respect to Leonardo and refused him directly.

Considering Leonardo’s identity, Susan hesitated for a while and said, “Ms. Jansen, Brooks Group is involved in almost every industry and is a giant in various industries in Haldarin, especially the clothing industry. Are you really going to refuse hi!”

Rosalind replied even faster this time, “Yes, I’m busy!”

Susan thought, “Busy? The company has just started there’s someone busy, it must be the sales department, As the design director, she is not busy at all?

But Susan didn’t dare to say that. She pouted and wanted to say something more, but after thinking for a while, she nodded and said, “Entit

Jacob said pravey, “M. Brooks, I contacted the secretary of Amands, the design director of BUT Group to make an appointment with her. But she said that Amanda coesn’t have time for it and refused me directly”

Then Jacobs raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Leonardo, Seeing no obvious change in Leonardo’s expression, Jacob felt relieved.

Leonardo said. “Huh? Rejected? Did they decide to cooperate with Jansen Group? Oc is Amanca deliberately making things hard for us?”

Leonardo had never been rejected so directly before. He was curous about who Amanda was and whether the cooperation between Jansen Group

and BUT was unbreakable.

Leonardo looked at Jacob and asked, “Have you prepared the documents of information on Amanda?”

Jacob adjusted his gold–rimmed glasses and said piltily, “it’s almost done. I’ll give them to you soon.”

Jacob was in a dilemma before. On the previous weekend, his girlfriend told him that she would break up with him if he didn’t spend the weekend

with her

it had been about two months since the last time Jacob saw his grifiend. And it was not easy for him to have a gilfriend. So, he was afraid that his girlfriend would really break up with him. That was why he chose to spend the weekend with his giffiend.

Jacob put aside what Leonardo ordered him to do. Now when Leonardo mentioned, he was so nervous that his heart beat faster and faster and he felt he would be doomed Hiday

Just ping Jacoby brief glance, Leonardo knew that Jacob was not ready

Leonardo quicly signed his name on the document in riy hand and said to Jacob coldly, “Your bonus for this month is gone. And ifi can’t get all the information about Amanda before the charity event tomorrow night, you will be fired!”

“es” I promise that I’ll give them layou tomorrom!

Jacob breathed a sigh of reliel and slowly calmed down. He took the documents from Leonando and quickly leh. Fortunately, the punishment was only losing a month’s bonus. He would be really sad if he was fred.

Jacob knew there were lots of people wanting to replace him.

Not long after Jacob left, someone knocked on the door again.

“Come in.”

As soon as Leonardo fnished speaking, the door was opened from outside. A woman wear ng high heels with an enchanting body slowleeding

The woman’s long black hair was loose behind her back. She was wearing delicate ring shaped earrings that were reflecting golden light under the

Virginia sat opposite Leonardo and supported her chin with her right hand. “Leonardo, I heard that you wanted to work with the designer of BUT Group?” She locked straight at him with alluring cyes.

Leonardo said without looking up. “Didn’t I tell you to call me Mr. Brook in the company?” He was looking down at the documents and seemed to be gloomy

“Okay, Mr. Brooks!” Virginia leaned back on the sola, leaked at Leonards, and said, “Why do you decide to cooperate with BUT Group? Don’t we have our own team of designers?”

“Who told you that?” Leonardo suddenly closed the elder and casually threw it on the table and looked at Virginia indifferently

Virginia said, “That’s not important. Just tell me if it is true. I’m the design director of Breaks Group. Don’t you have faith in me? Why did you decide to coopete with BUT Group?”

Seeing that Leonardo’s attitude was indiferent. Virgnia stopped smiling. Then she looked as if she left she was wronged. She hoped that beonardo would care about her helings

Leonarde glanced at Virginia casually and seered, “The board of directors doesn’t have to report everything to you, the design director. Dr do you want to be the CED?”

Virginia became a little ancious m er Leonardo’s gare, “Mr. Brooks, you know I didn’t mean that…

Virginia wanted to say something more but was interrupted by Leonardo. He said coldly, “Cood. You should be preparing the costume designing drahs for ned season and focus on your own part I think you know the quality of your design departments work this year I don’t want to pay a lot to buy the main design for the next season from other apin!”

Hearing Leone’s words. Virginia Rushed Shera zed that Leonardo began to doubt her abil

Virginia thought. No wonder he wants to cooperate with BUT Group. Does he want BUT Group to laer charge of it?

No, if he cooperates with BUT Group, I will be in an even more dangerous situation. No, I can’t let that happen

Viepna suddenly came up with an idea. She looked at Leonardo and said, “Mc Brooks, are you going back to the Brooks residence tonight? Mom and Danny miss you a lot.”

Leonardo thought about Mania and Dylan and his face satened a lie. He looked up at girls and said, “No, I have to work overtime to night. Buy Danny some ghts to comfort him when you came home.

Looking at Leonardo, Virginia knew that she had hund Leonardo’s soh spat. Sure enough, every time Virginia mentioned Maria and Dylan, Leonardo would be less angry and indifferent

Virginia was de proed and she agreed without hesitation, “Okay, I’ll tell Danny about it!

Looking at Leonardo’s face, Virginia rubbed her hands together unconsciously and said nervously, “Mr. Brooks, do you need me to go to the chanty event with you tomorrow night? I heard lots of people will be there. I want to go with you so that I can tell Mom and Danny something interesting of

the party.
