Never See You Again

Maeve yanked her arm free from Sergio's Grip and said icily, "Sorry, I can't do that."

The next moment, the Scott manor's front door burst open. A group of people rushed in, sending the maids scattering in fear.

Sharon hid behind Philip, panicking. "Philip! What do we do now..."

Sergio murmured, "Maeve, I'm giving you one last chance. Come with me."

Maeve remained unmoved, and the standoff continued.

Upon seeing this, Sharon was the first to break down. She walled, "Ms. Scott! I've been telling you to go with Mr. Brooks, and you wouldn't listen. Why are you so stubborn? Do you really want things to escalate this far?"

Sharon slapped her thigh in frustration. "The Scott family is going to be doomed because of you!"

"Shut up!" Philip snapped.

Philip was nearly driven mad by Sharon's incessant chatter beside him. Pointing angrily at Sergio, he shouted, "My biggest regret is marrying Maeve off to a beast like you! Do you think there's no law in Seathburn? You're too arrogant, Sergio!"

Sergio glanced coldly at Philip and replied, "In Seathburn, everything I say is the law,"

Just then, the sound of applause came from outside the door.

"Well, well... So you're the one who makes the rules in Seathburn?" Zion spoke.

Soon, a group of people wielding electric batons burst into the Scott Manor. They stood in opposition to Sergio's men.

Zion walked inside. He had a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.

"Zion?" Philip asked in bewilderment as he did not know that Zion was involved in this.

Zion stood beside Maeve with his hands behind his back, like a guardian.

"Mr. Brooks, you're not taking anyone with you today, but you might leave with something else," Zion said, tossing a USB drive at Sergio's feet.

Zion spoke calmly, "Everything the Brooks family has done over the years in on that drive. Each item is enough to bring down the Brooks Group Would you like to take a look, Mr. Brooks?" Larry had a worried expression. He picked up the USB drive and handed it to Sergio.

He leaned in and whispered, "Mr. Brooks, the Spencer family used to be very powerful. The people here today are all loyal to them. We can't afford to mess with them, or we'll end up losing." Sergio frowned. If he gave up now, he didn't know when he would have another chance to get close to Maeve.

Marve smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Brooks, business is about harmony and seizing the right opportunities. I guess you should know who has the upper hand in this situation now,"

Sergio responded, "What if I insist on taking you back with me today, no matter what?"

"Then you'll have to walk over my dead body!" a voice suddenly rang out from outside the Scott Manor.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Everyone turned to see Hailey storming in. She looked unwell as it was obvious that she had rushed over from the hospital. Sergio was stunned "Grandma?"
