Jerome smiled awkwardly, but there was a flash of resentment in his eyes.
Leonardo glanced at Jerome and Virginia coldly and said calmly, “You’d better do. If you are so afraid
that I can’t manage the Brooks Group and hurt your interests, you can leave now. I will never ask you
to stay! But if you want to stay in the Brooks Group, just do what you’re supposed to do. Don’t tell me
what I should do!”
Jerome and Virginia’s expressions changed dramatically as they heard.
this.
Was Leonardo going to make things so ugly?
Virginia gritted her teeth in hatred.

But both Virginia and Jerome knew that it was not the right time to fight, with Leonardo, so they secretly
cursed in their hearts and went back to the company together.
After they left, Leonardo walked to Rosalind.
“Are you okay?” he asked.
His voice was low, gentle, and worried, which was completely different from what it was just now.
“Yes, I’m fine.”
Rosalind blinked and smiled brightly.
She was indeed annoyed by Lucy’s behavior. Lucy was really st upid as she maliciously slandered
Rosalind under instigation, which finally ruined her future.
But it was all Lucy’s own decision. Although Rosalind was a little angry, she was more sympathetic and
helpless.
However, all the unhappiness seemed to have disappeared when Leonardo defended her in front of
Virginia.
Seeing that Rosalind didn’t seem to be affected much, Leonardo was relieved. Rosalind had just
recovered, so he was afraid that this would affect her health.

Looking at Rosalind’s bright smile and her rosy lips, Leonardo swallowed
saliva when he thought of what happened in the morning.
The murky atmosphere between them made Jacob stunned..
In a few days, Leonardo’s attitude towards Rosalind changed again. They seemed to get along well.
“Did something happen between Leonardo and Rosalind?” he wondered.
“Mr. Brooks, why don’t we go back to the office first?”
Jacob definitely meant well, but when he said this, Leonardo’s gentle look disappeared instantly, and
he looked at Jacob with a cold face.
“Don’t you have things to do now?” Leonardo said with anger.
He really wanted to tear Jacob apart now.
It was Jacob who ruined his moment in the morning, and now Jacob was standing here looking at him
and Rosalind again. What an insensible.
man!
Jacob didn’t know why Leonardo was angry, but he still shook his head.
sincerely.
“No, I’m busy.”
“Then just do your things!”
Leonardo glared at Jacob and thought, “What an idiot!”
“Oh!”
Jacob nodded and went back to the company in confusion. After he sat down, he still didn’t figure out
what Leonardo was angry about just now.
“Where are you going now?”
Seeing Leonardo driving silently, Rosalind felt a little strange.
“You’ll know later.”
Leonardo looked at Rosalind with a smile and didn’t tell her the answer.
Hearing this, Rosalind stopped asking and leaned back.

Half an hour later, Leonardo woke Rosalind up.

After getting out of the car, the place which was in a mess made Rosalind feel strange.
“Where did you bring me? Why is this place so messy?”
This place looked like an old neighborhood. The buildings had staircases. There were several small
wooden tables in the community, around which the elders were chatting happily.
There were also some people who had desserts or drank tea.
Some children were running around in the crowd. This place looked chaotic and lively.
Rosalind had never been to such a place. She didn’t know where she should stand for a moment, so
she didn’t move.
“This is the community where Gordon lives. His family now lives in Room 701 on the seventh floor of
this building.”
Since they’d arrived, Leonardo told the truth to Rosalind directly.
“Impossible! How could Gordon live here?”
Gordon used to be the vice president of Jansen Group. He had a lot of money, and he left the Jansen
Group when it was not bankrupt. How could he live in such a poor environment?
Rosalind remembered that Nafis had praised Gordon for his business acumen. Even if Gordon left the
Jansen Group, it was impossible for him. to end up like this.
Rosalind was confused.
Thinking of this, Rosalind walked under the tree and saw a kind-looking old lady.
Then she asked, “Ma’am, do you know a man named Gordon Rodney? Is he living here?”
“Oh, Gordon!”
When it came to Gordon, the old lady’s expression was a little strange. Her kind look disappeared
instantly, and she became serious. She looked at Rosalind and Leonardo carefully up and down with

Even the old ladies around stopped laughing and talking and looked at

Rosalind.
“What’s your relationship with the Rodney family? Why are you looking for him?”
“Oh, Gordon is an old friend of my father’s. I came back from abroad this. time to visit him.”
Rosalind didn’t understand why these people changed their attitudes so quickly. So she lied with a
smile.
Perhaps Rosalind looked innocent and sincere, so those people didn’t suspect her. When they heard
that she came to visit Gordon, they smiled again.
“So you’re here to visit Gordon. Yes, they live in Room 701. They should be still at home now. Go
ahead!”
Hearing this, Rosalind and Leonardo looked at each other. After thanking the old lady, they walked
towards the staircase.
“This is the oldest community in Central District. It’s a staff building constructed by an electronics
factory before, so there are no elevators. Bet careful and follow me. It’s dark and the stairs are deep.
Don’t fall.”
Leonardo took Rosalind up the stairs and told her to be careful while walking.
When they went upstairs, they came across many residents. Seeing Leonardo and Rosalind in suits,
the residents looked at them curiously. After they made sure that they didn’t seem to know the two
young people, they quickly withdrew their gazes.
Rosalind also looked at the community carefully. The whole community was shabby, and it was very
noisy downstairs, with loud laughter and talking.
Outside each room on every floor, things piled up. The aisle was narrow, and it would be easy for two
people to bump into the stuff or rub against. the kitchen utensils put outside, so Leonardo and Rosalind
walked very carefully.
