Chapter 42
Olivia looked at her defiant attitude with disgust. “You still don’t
realize what your problem is!”
If she weren’t so rude and poor at socializing, how could she have gotten into all this trouble?
If she had even half of Bianca’s manners, how could she not be liked by Abigail and those rich girls?
Isabella frowned and glanced at her with annoyance. “This is
ridiculous.”
Olivia’s eyes trembled. “What did you say?”
Isabella couldn’t be bothered with her and went upstairs.
“Isabella.” Bianca looked anxiously at her retreating figure. “Mom is talking to you–don’t leave yet.”
Isabella turned a deaf ear and didn’t look back.
“How dare you!” Olivia was so angry at Isabella’s cold and heartless attitude that her chest hurt. “She came back just to torture me!”

Chapter 42.
So ill–mannered.
Isabella completely ignored her own mother.
Did she truly think she had no faults at all?
If William hadn’t happened to be at the Rodriguez Family discussing business and saw what happened, stepping forward to say that one sentence, did she really think she could have walked out of the Rodriguez Family unharmed?

things up so easily.
In these wealthy circles, everyone is snobbish.

At the same time, several business partners came forward to terminate their contracts with the Rodriguez Group, as if they had all
agreed on it.
The deals involved were worth over a hundred million dollars.
“Mr. Allen, this was good business, so why aren’t you doing it
anymore?” On the phone, Ryder said with a smile. “Is there a quality problem with our products?”
“Mr. Rodriguez, stop playing dumb. We all know what happened last
night.”
“Mr. Allen, that was just a misunderstanding…”
“Mr. Rodriguez, the Brown Family is someone no one can afford to offend. I heard that Mr. Brown no longer wants your land, and people said his face looked terrible when he left your place…”
“We’re all just trying to make a living in business. If I keep doing

business with you and offend the Brown Family, it won’t just be about
business anymore – people could get hurt.”
“Mr. Rodriguez, I’m really sorry. Please understand my position.”
“If there are other opportunities in the future, we can work together
then.”
The words sounded nice, but the meaning was clear – he didn’t want
to be implicated.
Ryder hung up the phone with a cold expression.
Just then, the butler, Beau, brought more news.
“Mr. Rodriguez, there’s a problem at the factory. They’re saying the factory is involved in illegal production…”
