Never See You Again

While Sergio and Zion were at a standoff, Larry came in through the door. He hastily went up to Sergio and whispered something in the latter's ear.

Sergio's expression instantly turned foul. "We're leaving!"

"Understood, Mr. Brooks."

Larry walked behind Sergio. When he turned around, he looked at Maeve with a helpless and worried gaze In his eyes.

Frowning, Maeve said, "Zion, just stay away from this incident."

She knew that something must have happened on Clara's end. If not, Sergio wouldn't have left in such a hurry.

Also, now that something had happened to Clara, Sergio would actually be at odds with Maeve.

She didn't want Zion to get involved in this.

After all, this incident had nothing to do with him at all.

Zion said, "He wouldn't dare to do anything to you."

"Exactly! Who does he think he is? How dare he cause such a huge ruckus for the sake of a mistress? Does he really think that he gets the final say in Seathburn City?" Lyra was furious.

Maeve said, "It was supposed to be a great event celebrating the release of the housing project, but it ended up terribly. I'm so sorry, Lyra."

"This isn't your fault. Sergio is to blame for this!"

Lyra said, "After the huge ruckus this time, I think you two should just get divorced. Just toss that man away: he's not a keeper."

Maeve shook her head.

For now, they couldn't get divorced yet.

Maeve believed that even if Sergio was furious because of Clara's accident, he wouldn't get so pissed. that he would divorce Maeve right then and there. The Scotts were still valuable to the Brooks, so Sergio wouldn't suffer a double loss. He wouldn't let Maeve off the hook so easily, either.

"I'll go check things out at the hospital. Please take care of things here."

Sergio had asked all the other guests to leave, so there were probably many things that Lyra still had to settle.

Zion grabbed Maeve's wrist, stopping her from leaving just like that. "I'm coming with you."

Maeve retracted her hand, saying, "I can manage on my own."

Seeing that Maeve insisted on going alone, Lyra held Zion back and shook her head at him.

After Maeve left, Lyra said, "No matter what, they're still currently married. What identity are you assuming

to protect Mavy?"

Zion pursed his lips.

Lyra said, "I think Mavy doesn't like Sergio, either. If Sergio is really going to do something heartless for the sake of his mistress, we can act first. That'll teach the jerk a lesson."Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

"You're right! I agree with you wholeheartedly!"

Beside them, Charlie chimed in.

But Zion put on a deep frown as he intently watched Maeve leave.

In the hospital, Sergio stood watch at the entrance of Clara's ward. He never left his post for even a

second.
