It'll Come Naturally -
Chapter 539 Lose All Reputation (Part One)
"Brutal and reckless as always, sis. You think you can slap me and get away with it? Not today." With a mocking smile, Brian grabbed one of her hands that she was trying to slap him with.
"Why? Why don't you feel sorry for your mother at all? Why are you so heartless to her? How can you just sit back and let Dad divorce her? Who do you think you are?" Pulling her hand away. Mary bombarded her brother with accusations. She didn't know why could he be so cold to his flesh and blood. "Why should I help her? Did she do something for me that I should appreciate? She's the one who got herself into this. There's nothing I can do."
Brian looked at his mother as she slumped on the floor. Every word he just said was so merciless to Yakira that she couldn't help bursting into a rage. She jumped to her feet and raised her hand to slap Brian across his face, no longer caring about how Leo would think of her. But this time, Brian stood still and received the slap without escaping.
"Hahaha, look what a lovely boy I have! Now that you want to side with outsiders. I am not your mother anymore." Yakira thought Brian would dodge, or at least grab her wrist to stop her. She was surprised to see Brian stand still and take it without a word. It made her heart ache to see Brian was so determined to deny her. From now on, Yakira became a stranger who Brian had nothing to do with. Thinking of that, her face was convulsed with grief and she stepped back.
Brian chewed his lower lip and walked upstairs silently. He responded to the mess as if he had nothing to do with it at all. But his swollen face proved that he was involved, whether he liked it or not.
"Look how bad your parenting is! Even your own son doesn't love you!" Leo squinted at Yakira with irony in his tone.
"Father, do you have to break up with mother? She has been with you for so many years! Even though she did something wrong, it was only because she loves you so much!" Mary chewed her lower lip, trying to talk her stepfather into giving up on the divorce. "It's true that she has been with me for many years. But don't tell me she did something so nasty out of love. Love is supposed to be holy. She doesn't love anyone. The only one she loves in this world is herself."
Seeing Yakira being so miserable was not good enough for Leo. Instead, he got pissed off whenever he thought of what Yakira did. The thought of her trading Daisy for 500 million was the worst. Leo didn't expect it was just the beginning.
"No matter how much you hate me, there is no way I am going to divorce you. If you want to know what it's like to lose all reputation, then have a try. Remember I am not a softie."
Yakira said with a desolate smile. 'You want to throw me out? Leo, I am not as soft as you think. It's true that I am not as considerate as Grace, but I never lose when it comes to manipulating people.' She thought to herself.
"Hah! lose all reputation? Yakira, you think I still care about things like money and reputation? I am determined to divorce you no matter what I have to pay for that. Because compared to losing my reputation, having such a merciless and brutal person as you around scares me the most."
What Leo just said was full of self-deprecation. He always thought of himself as a smart person, but it turned out he had been manipulated by a woman. How could such a loser care about money and reputation anymore?
"No, you can't do that to me! Is it Daisy who told you to do that? I know it! She has been holding a grudge against me, her stepmother. So she keeps sowing dissension among us. Yes, that's it. She wants control of Ouyang Foreign Trade, so she wants me to be turned out. In that case, she could inherit all your money."
Yakira said as her mind was in turmoil. What she did was typical of her, blaming someone else for anything.
"Then which one do you think is more powerful? FX International Group or Ouyang Foreign Trade?" Leo asked her in a weak voice. It made his heart ache to see his wife's true colors -- she only cared about his money.
"FX International Group of course! Ouyang Foreign Trade is equal to just one of its subsidiaries." Mary blurted out. Anybody in the city knew how powerful it was. The answer was so obvious.
"Then why do you think Daisy cares about Ouyang Foreign Trade as her husband owns the FX International Group? That's a stupid assertion. So stop replaceing excuses for yourself and blaming someone else for what you did. I am divorcing you anyway! End of discussion! Take care!" Leo was done with the mess, He began to walk out in case Yakira should harass him again.
"Leo, you're such a heartless man! You must have a mistress! I know it! That's why you threaten me with this report to get a divorce. You saw everything I did. How could you accuse me of being devious? You can't hold me responsible for what happened! You're such a loser!" Yakira shouted at Leo, but he left without looking back. What Leo wanted now was to leave this house full of bad memories.
"Mother, what do we do? It seems that father is determined to divorce you. What if he takes all our money away from us? How could we support ourselves? Let me make everything clear first. I don't want to be poor again!" Mary pouted. The first thing coming to her was not how to comfort her mother, but how to sustain her luxury lifestyle.00
