Chapter 274 Sergio received the news and quickly went to the shore. The rescue team placed Maeveâs clothes in front of him and asked, âSir, is this your wifeâs clothes?â
Sergio was stunned when he saw the clothes, He had seen Maeve in that clothes. In the surveillance footage, she was wearing that on the day she got kidnapped.
âYesâ
âWeâve deduced that sheâs dead, and weâve stopped the search and rescue operation. Iâm sorry for your loss.â
The rescue team had been searching at sea for such a long time, yet they hadnât found Maeveâs body. Now that they had found her clothes, they could likely confirm their speculation.
Sergio questioned with a frown, âYou havenât found her body. How could you say sheâs died?â
Sergio still wanted to continue, but Larry sensed that he was emotionally unstable, so he immediately stopped him. Then, Larry said to the rescue team, âThank you for working hard these days. Mr. Brooks will prepare some gifts for you. Please get some restâ
After listening to Larry, they nodded and left.
Sergio shook Larry off and exclaimed, âMaeveâs body hasnât been found yet. Sheâs not dead!â
âMr. Brooks, please accept the reality.â
Everyone knew it was hopeless. Only Sergio believed Maeve was still alive. In fact, no one would still be alive after falling into the sea for so many days.
Looking at the vast sea, Sergio felt his eyes stinging Maeve would never come back.
Sergio went back to Brooks Manor in the evening. Clara was considerate and wanted to help Sergio remove his suit, but he said coldly, touch me.â
âDonât Clara saw the resentment in Sergioâs eyes. Instead of walking up to him, she deliberately revealed, âSergio, since Maeveâs gone, Mrs. Brooks Senior has decided to hold a funeral for her.â
âWhat did you say?
Serglo dashed into the living room and saw Hailey sitting on the couch while sipping tea calmly. She said, âSince youâre back, take a look at the guestlist and details. See if thereâs anyone you like to invite or anything you wish to add â
âWho agreed to hold a funeral for Maeve? Grandma, why didnât you ask me about this?â
Sergio reacted aggressively, but Hailey was puzzled. âIt isnât even a big deal. Iâve set the date of the funeral. By then, you only need to attend the funeral to avoid gossip.â
H Then, Hailey said to Clara, âClara, send out the invitation according to the address. Allie will help you out.
âOkay, Mrs. Brooks Senior.â
Clara had gotten on Haileyâs good side in merely a few days.
In the past, Hailey had been disdainful of Clara.
But now, she was talking to Clara so affectionately.
Sergio felt a cold shiver at the sight of the scene.
He shouldâve remembered the Brooks family members had always been coldhearted, and he had grown up in such an environment.
In the Brooks family, there wasnât any bond between the family members. They would get along well with anyone even though it was someone they disliked, as long as that person would bring them benefits.
He thought he had learned that well after so many years.
