Chapter 413
“Alright,” Sergio replied
Meanwhile, Hailey stood up abruptly in Brooks Manor with a grim expression. “What? You’re saying Sergio took Maeve to the amusement park?”
“Yes, and that’s not all. He rented out the entire place and invested a billion in Hackett Entertainment just to get her to agree,” Cecilia said, looking dejected.
After Clara left, Cecilia seized the opportunity to return to Brooks Manor, hoping for another chance, But Sergio’s attention was solely on Maeve, with no intention of marrying her.
Cecilia had only learned about Sergio’s amusement park outing while delivering breakfast to him at Brooks Group
“Such a fool! What on earth is he thinking Hailey clenched her teeth in anger.
Since the Scott family had gone bankrupt, she had thought Sergio wouldn’t be wasting
ing time on Maeve. He sh
“Call Larry right now,” Hailey ordered “Tell him I want Sergio to come home immediately”
“Yes, Mrs. Brooks Senior!” Cecilia eagerly pulled out her phone.
He should have been filing for divorce instead.
On the other end, Larry hesitated before answering “Ms. Hattman, does Mrs. Brooks Senjor need something?”
Cecilia replied, “She wants Mr. Brooks to come home immediately.”
“I’m sorry, but the signal here is poor. I’ll call you back shortly, Larry said before abruptly hanging up.
Cecilia’s face fell. She wasn’tnaïve. She knew Larry was avoiding her.
Seeing Cecilia’s expression, Hailey’s frustration grew. “After losing his own
m child, he’s now spending time with his soon–to–be–divorced wife at an amusement park! What is he thinking?
Hailey grabbed her walking stick. “Get the driver. I’m going to Brooks Group myself to put an end to this!”
“Got it, Mrs. Brooks Senior.”
Meanwhile, Sergio was filled with contentment as he watched Maeve enjoy the carousel
He took out his phone and captured the moment, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
He couldn’t help but wonder: if he had realized his feelings for Marve earlier, would everything have turned out differently?
Suddenly, Sergio’s phone rang. He answered, and Larry said from the other end, “Mr. Brooks, Mrs. Brooks Senior just had Ms. Hoffman call me. It seems like someone from the company has leaked the news.”
“I see.” Sergio glanced at Maeve, who was still on the carousel “Handle the rest of the day for me. Keep it under wraps. I don’t want her birthday ruined.” “Yes, Mr. Brooks”
Sergio hung up as Maeve got off the carousel. “If something is going on at the company, you should go back. You don’t have to spend my birthday with me.” After all, Marve had long grown accustomed to Sergio’s busy schedule.
In a low voice, Sergio said, “Today, you’re my only priority.” [1
Marve fell silent at Sergio’s words. Maybe, in her previous life, this was what she had longed to hear. But now, his words no longer moved her.
Sergh asked, “What else do you want to do? I’ll agree to anything you say today”
Marve raised an eyebrow. “Don’t make promises so lightly. What if I asked for all of Brooks Group’s assets and the CTOs position? Would you give them to me?
