Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 1513: Boycotting the Leoz Group
Seeing Marcos and Alfredo's dilemma, Paulina thought for a moment and suggested, "Why don't I go talk to her?"
"No." Marcos vetoed without saying a word.
Paulina laughed helplessly, "I know you're afraid she'll hurt me, but I've seen her several times and she doesn't strike me as an unreasonable person." "Then let me go."
Marcos frowned, as if he was thinking about something.
"Prince, why don't you let Paulina try? Maybe it's better to communicate between people of the same sex." said Alfredo.
"If you're not sure, let Alfredo go with me, he'll protect me." Paulina took Marcos' hand tightly and curved her mouth, "And I want to help you."
Marcos turned his head, looked into her clear eyes, hesitated a few seconds and finally agreed, "Yes."
Then he looked at Alfredo and said in a deep voice: "Make sure you take care of Paulina, if she loses a single hair, I'm coming for you!". Alfredo bowed his head respectfully, "Yes."
Before leaving, Paulina smiled and said to Marcos, "I'll be back soon."
And then she hurried away with Alfredo.
The elevator reached the first floor and, as soon as the door opened, a sob of pathos was heard.
"Papa, how badly you died! Dad..."
It was truly sad to hear and tearful to hear.
As it turned out, when Paulina heard it, she just felt her heart heavy.
At this point, everything was depressing and hard to follow.
She followed Alfredo, step by step, toward the entrance of the office.
Juanetta was sitting on the floor, dressed in white, with a white cloth tied around her head, holding the effigy of Juanetta's father in her arms.
As I approached, I saw the white cloth strip with the words "Leoz Group, return my father" written in red.
"Mrs. Marcos is coming out!"
I don't know who shouted, but the journalists, who had been waiting irritated and wizened, suddenly perked up and craned their necks to look inside the office. When Paulina's figure came into their view, everyone's eyes lit up and they raised their long guns, blurting out questions.
"Madam President, is everything Miss Yao said true, is it true that her father was killed by you?"
"The Leoz Group is always bent on doing charity work, now that you have forced an old man to die, is it true that all the charity and charitable works that were done before were superficial?" "The Leoz Group is such a big company, using its power to make a young woman lose her job and her father die, aren't you afraid of damaging your yin and yang by doing so?"
Paulina was tempted to retort, but restrained herself as she stopped two steps away from Juanetta.
Juanetta tilted her face back and stared at her with a look of deadly hatred in her eyes.
Paulina pressed her palms together, "Juanetta, I'm sorry it took this to replace out your father passed away, I really am."
A glint of evil flashed under Juanetta's eyes.
"But you're not going to figure things out sitting here like this, we ..."
Before Paulina could finish her sentence, a dark figure pounced on her.
"You're the ones who had my father killed! I can't believe you guys have the nerve to come see me!"
Juanetta hissed hysterically as she pulled hard on Paulina's hair.
Alfredo, who was talking to the security guards, and the other guards rushed to pull Juanetta away.
Juanetta, who was being restrained, reluctantly lifted her foot and kicked Paulina hard.
From the start, Paulina was stunned.
If Alfredo had not restrained her in time, she would have kicked her to the ground.
"Punch! Hit someone!"
Seeing that the situation was not right, Juanetta suddenly grabbed her head, bent down and screamed.
The guards were quick to hold up their hands to show that they hadn't hit anyone.
But the reporters didn't care, for they were photographing Paulina with their cameras.
The flashes were blinding.
Paulina raised her hand to block them.
"Madam President, you are intimidating people with your power! How dare you let security guards beat a defenseless girl?"
"How dare the head of the Leoz Group intimidate a girl with a dead father like that!"
...
All the journalists were talking about Grupo Leoz and Paulina.
The scene was chaotic for a while.
Alfredo hurriedly escorted Paulina to the office.
Once inside the elevator, Alfredo hurriedly asked, "Paulina, are you okay?".
Paulina looked at him and managed a small smile, "Other than a sore scalp, nothing."
She lowered her head, her eyes a little tired, as she recalled the scene.
Just now, in front of the press, Juanetta had spoken ill of the Leoz Group and of her.
She was not the same gentle and kind Juanetta as before.
She closed her eyes at the thought, and the burning pain in her scalp became more and more pronounced.
His greatest fear now was that Juanetta was doing this for another purpose.
Seeing her like this, Alfredo dared not make a sound, and the elevator fell silent.
DING--
The elevator arrived.
Paulina opened her eyes as the doors opened and lifted her steps to get out, who knew Mark was outside.
"Prince." Alfredo didn't expect Marcos to be waiting outside.
A harsh shock of sight came over him, startling him into lowering his head, "Prince, I'm sorry, I didn't protect Paulina."
"Marcos, I'm fine." Paulina came out and took Marcos' hand, she was afraid he would blame Alfredo.
After all, she was the one who had insisted on coming down.
Marcos didn't bother to blame Alfredo as he examined Paulina up and down, "Where does it hurt?" Paulina gave him a reassuring smile, "I'm fine. I just lost a few hairs."
"You're really okay?" Marcos still wasn't sure.
Paulina nodded vigorously, "Really, I'm fine."
Marcos was relieved, "That's good."
He had just seen Juanetta come up and hit her, she had almost given him cardiac arrest, luckily Alfredo and the others had reacted in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unthinkable. "Don't do that again." Marcos said.
Paulina smiled, "It's okay, I know."
...
The video of the Leoz Group security beating moved to the Internet and in less than an hour retweets numbered in the tens of thousands and the number of comments had already exceeded 10,000. The anger of Internet users was at its peak, with all kinds of accusations and insults directed at the Leoz Group.
"Grupo Leoz is a disgusting bully! That Paulina is not a good person either, pretending to come down to take care of Juanetta, but secretly letting the security guards beat people up, it's really enough for Green Coffee!" "Starting with me, as of today I will never use any Leoz Group products again!"
"Me too!"
...
Internet users also launched a vote to boycott the Leoz Group, and for a while, the Leoz Group was caught up in a whirlwind of public opinion and its stock began to drop.
The situation prompted Chris and Rawlins to ask for God's help.
In an interview with the media, Rawlins deliberately said, "We are in business to be a company with a conscience. Not one that uses power to oppress the vulnerable masses, I despise that behavior and I am determined not to do it." When his interview was published, he received unanimous praise on the Internet.
Such contrast made netizens even more disgusted with the Leoz Group and the rebukes reached a new level.
