Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160

Chapter 1160:

Aiming to definitively outdo them, the Juarez Group expanded its original business model.

When Liliana returned home after being away for several days, Valentina stormed into her room, visibly upset.

“Liliana, do you still see me as your mother?”

Liliana, who was by the window making a phone call, glanced at Valentina but didn’t respond.

Valentina grew even angrier.

After the International Charity Auction, she had become reluctant to attend gatherings with other affluent women, feeling mocked whenever she appeared. Regarding the mother-daughter relationship, Valentina contended that since Liliana refused to spare a few hundred million for her, Liliana had no grounds to discuss their bond. Seeing Liliana dismiss her, Valentina rushed over, seized Liliana’s phone, and hurled it to the floor.

“I’m speaking to you.

Didn’t you hear me? Now that you’ve risen to head the Juarez Group and aligned with Waylon, you think you can ignore me? Remember, it was my efforts that brought you close to Waylon!”

Liliana coldly retrieved her phone from the floor and struck Valentina across the face, her laugh tinged with scorn.

“How could I ever forget? I’ll always remember you sending me to a stranger’s bed!”

A hint of discomfort flashed across Valentina’s face. She was aware that this grievance was a longstanding issue between them, one that had driven them to such bitterness.

Valentina felt a brief urge to relent, but Liliana’s icy stare convinced her she wasn’t in the wrong. Without her actions, the Juarez family wouldn’t enjoy the prosperity they had today. Thinking of this, Valentina slapped back.

“Do you have any manners? I am your mother, and our culture demands respect for parents! Speak to me with respect, and I’ll reciprocate. Otherwise, I’m prepared to take you down with me if it means seeing you fall from grace!”

Liliana’s expression remained cold, but Valentina’s grew even colder.

Liliana silently branded her mother as unhinged. She cursed silently. She knew her mother could be unstoppable when she lost control, so she held back her anger and softened her tone.

“I was too upset just now.

But you also have to take responsibility. I was on the phone with a partner, and you barged in without any warning. If the deal falls through, can you explain it to Waylon?”

The thought of Waylon’s merciless tactics made Valentina shudder.

“So, now what…”

Seeing her mother’s anxiety, Liliana sneered.

“Don’t worry. I’ll manage it.”

“Liliana, I’m sorry. Let’s reconcile and stop this bickering.” Valentina softened her stance.

Liliana glanced at Valentina but offered no reply. She had witnessed this cycle too many times. It was a monthly occurrence.

Despite today’s conciliatory gestures, Valentina would likely revert to scolding and striking her again soon.

Valentina tightened her grip and continued, “Liliana, didn’t you mention Harlee was planning something against you? If we remain at odds, won’t it…”

Before she could finish, Liliana agreed.

“Mom, you’re correct. We shouldn’t be at odds. We need to stand together against Harlee.” For Liliana, Harlee represented a significant vulnerability.
