Elizabeth cocked her head to one side to avoid the cup, which fell to the floor and broke into pieces,
spilling tea all over her.
Mason, who followed Elizabeth, was startled, and cried, "Aunt Elizabeth!"
Charles's eyes widened when he saw Mason.
"Who the f*ck make you take advantage of the company to fight against Valeria? Get the f*cking in here
and make it clear!"
It was about Valeria, and that flurried Elizabeth and Mason .
The rage in Charles made them tell how bad it was this time.
Getting the door closed, Elizabeth and Mason walked up to Charles nervously.
Mason was too afraid to speak, and Elizabeth broke the silence, "Honey, what happened?"
"Drop the act.Mason really hasn't tell you? He would have dared to make use of the lawyer team and
Public Relations Section to pay Internet trolls without your permission? How dare he use the
company's money for his own purposes? Who the hell he thinks he is?"
Charles was good at swearing, and Elizabeth didn't dare to refute him.She and Mason were still in
confusion about what was going on about Valeria.Of course, Elizabeth wouldn't put the blame on her
nephew, so she immediately took the responsibility.
"Honey, it's my fault.Mason told me about Valeria's plagiarism.It was connected to Wolf Group.I
suspected that an accident would happened, so I asked the Public Relations Section to do something
and contact Wolf Group.But Valeria has been kicked out, so there will be nothing…”
Before Elizabeth could finish, Charles slapped her in the face.
"Why did you deny it, you actually participated in it yourself and you didn't say anything to me.You
already make yourself the owner of the company?"
The slap was heavy.She covered her face with no words.
Mason was shocked aside.He thought that his aunt was important to Charles, not expecting to watch
Charles hit on her.He tried to take the responsibility but chickened out when he saw the scene.
Charles's slap on Elizabeth's face didn't ease his anger.
"Settle this down yourself.I won't clean things up for you this time!"
"Honey, I'll get it settled"" Elizabeth was making no defence to the slap.
"Just tell me what did Valeria do?"
"Valeria did what? She asked the lawyer to send a lawyer's letter to accuse the Howard Group of
trespassing on her privacy and tarnishing her reputation, and she also accused the Howard Group of
having fired her and lodged a claim for 500 million!"
"By herself?"
Elizabeth still didn't take Valeria as a threat at all.
"Honey, the proof of Valeria's raid is conclusive.She can't turn it around”
"Are you f*cking stupid? Why do you think that Valeria can' t turn it around? You know it clearly about
whether she plagiarized or not."
Charles couldn't help but haul off at her again.
"Just f*cking attack her on the weakness.You framed her without any evidence.She is tougher than you
imagine"
"We have collected evidence of her plagiarizing.The designer has also been bribed by us and showed
her attitude to the public.Ronald also said he wouldn't help Valeria.She won't have a chance to turn the
tables."
Mason, who had been silent, bit the bullet to interrupt.
"You are f*cking talking about this with me? You tell me where the designer is."
"This...I'll ask Ashley about it"
All of this was done by Ashley.
To tell the truth, Mason did not know who the designer was.
With this reply, Charles was angry to the extreme that he threw all the papers from the table.
"Idiot! You didn't even learn about the situation by yourself? How the f*ck did you make yourself a
manager?"
Mason's face turned red because of the scolding.He knew he got to the position of the manager in
Howard Group because of Elizabeth.
Without Elizabeth, he would just be a minor section chief at most.
Charles had been used to hitting Elizabeth and that was why he hit her just now.
Elizabeth shamelessly seduced him trying to make herself the mistress of the family.She had been
punished by Charles for many times over the years.
But Mason was different.He was not Ronald's son, just an outsider.He was not obliged to teach Mason
the lessons.
Ronald chose Mason to be the manager for his qualifications and Elizabeth's recommendation.
Of course , he could throw Ronald out of the company right now.
Charles suppressed the anger.
"I don't even have to investigate it and I know the results.Valeria hired Michael Davis to be her lawyer, it
meant that she has strong evidence to kill you!"
"What? She had Michael?" Elizabeth said in surprise.
"Michael was Wolf Group's great chief attorney, who never lost in his cases.So Valeria really had
evidence to turn the tables?" Thought Elizabeth.
Elizabeth panicked, and Mason panicked even more.
A look passed between them, and Elizabeth was not able to care about her face.
"Mason, what's going on? You said you got fully prepared and there was no chance that she could
change it"
"I…I'll ask Ashley right away!" Mason stuttered.
Looking at Mason's chaotic and twirly look, Charles couldn 't help but sneer.
"You started it and you need to clean it up yourself.And you have to pay for the compensation if there is
a need.If you get the company discredited, then pack up and get out of here! The useless guys can not
stay in the Howard Group!"
It hurt Mason more than slapping him in the face.
He immediately pulled out the phone and called Ashley.
Ashley felt an unendurable sense of being hit by Valeria, so she and Julie immediately went to Ronald
to cry.
Seeing that Ashley's cheeks were swollen and her body was covered with bruises, Ronald was furious.
Julie was adding highly colored details to this affair.
"God, Ashley's still pregnant.And Valeria was so brutal to her.Terrible if something happens to the
baby.Valeria has gone too far this time.You have to talk to her, or she'll do it again someday."
After Julie's words, Ronald called Valeria while no one answered it.
He started to swore, "This disobedient daughter actually refuses to answer my call.
"Then go find her.She lives in Lake View Nest.Ronald, you must talk with her to her face about it.She
won't take it seriously at all on the phone”
"You're right.I have to talk to her and ask her to apologize to Ashley, and make her promise that she
won't do such unreasonable things again.Still, I have to make her break up with that poor man.If she
refuses, I will deprive her of her inheritance rights!"
Ronald's words made Ashley and Julie burst a thousand laughs in their hearts.
They firmly believed that Valeria wouldn't apologize or break up with the man.
"And then she would definitely have a fierce quarrel with Ronald which will end up with Ronald taking
away Valeria' s inheritance right.That will make Ashley the only heir"
"We will be so close to the multi-million dollar empire.How wonderful it is!"
After seeing Ronald out, they began to contemplate their future happily, when Mason called them.
