Chapter 152 âYes, madam.â
Maeve walked up to Sergio, who didnât intend to speak. She sat opposite him and said, âYou brought me back here under false pretenses. What do you want to say?â
âWho did you sell the land to in the sewage district?â Sergio asked.
Maeve found his question amusing. âDidnât you investigate it?â
Since the news about the sewage district being rejuvenated broke, Sergio had only asked her about it once.
She didnât believe Sergio would let go of such a lucrat ve opportunity so easily. If she didnât want to say, he would surely investigate discreetly.
Presumably, Sergio had already received the false information she released. He was obviously unhappy with the investigationâs results, which is why he had brought her back here.
âZachary Davenport... There has never been such a figure in Seathburn City before.â
Sergio observed Maeveâs reaction to his words. Of course, Maeve wouldnât give anything away. Zachary was her, and she was Zachary. It was just a false identity. It was unsurprising for Sergio not to find anything in the investigation.
âHow would I know? Maybe theyâre a foreign entrepreneur,â Maeve casually changed the subject. âDid you bring me back specifically to ask me this? I donât have time to answer these boring questions.â
Maeve prepared to get up, but Sergio seemed to have compromised, asking, âHow long are you going to keep throwing tantrums?â
Maeve hadnât returned home for three months. He thought that Maeve would come to her senses if he gave her some space, but he hadnât expected that she wouldnât budge at all this time.
âIâm not throwing a tantrum. Since youâre unwilling to get a divorce, I can only use my own methods to force you to do so.â
Maeveâs words infuriated Sergio. âMaeve, do you really want to divorce? Do you like Zion that much?â
âIâve said it many times before. This has nothing to do with Zion!â
âDo you think Iâll believe that?â Sergio grabbed Maeveâs wrist. âWho else could it be for if not Zion? Itâs because Zion likes you, he can give you money and save your family, right?â
Maeve found his accusation ridiculous. âYes, Zion likes me. He can give me money and provide better resources for my family, so I canât wait to divorce you. Are you satisfied now?â
âYou!â Sergio was furious. He usually kept his temper in check, but Maeve had been getting under his skin quite easily lately.
He struggled to suppress his anger and said, âSo youâve been with Zion for the past three months, havenât Chapter 152 you?â
2/2 Sergio had people secretly watch Maeve for the past three months, but they had all been intercepted by Zionâs men. His people hadnât even been able to catch a glimpse of Maeveâs hair.
This suspicion had been in his mind for three months now. He just wanted Maeveâs answer.
Maeve looked at the anger in Sergioâs eyes and chuckled coldly. âWhat do âYou wench!â Sergio/pushed Maeve away, and she fell back onto the sofa.
you think?â
However, she only felt relieved. Seeing Sergioâs fury, she was reminded of the despair she experienced in her past life.
In the past, for Clara, Sergio had never cared about whether Maeve, who was his wife, lived or died.
Even when she was bleeding heavily during childbirth, Sergioâs voice over the phone had been so calm, as if he couldnât wait for her to die.
Maeve still remembered clearly that before she died, all the type A blood in the hospital had been taken away.
Apart from Sergio, there wasnât anyone in Seathburn City capable of doing that.
Sergio was a murderer! To be with Clara, he didnât even hesitate to kill his wife. He did all of that to leave Mrs. Brookâs position vacant so that Clara could formally be a part of his family.
Now, although she and Zion were just having normal interactions, he was clinging to her like this. It turned/ out he was also scared of his wife cheating on him. He had a temper, too.
