Chapter 346 In the room, the moonlight cast delicate shadows on Claraâs skin.
Clara removed her top, revealing her fair chest.
Serglo immediately looked away, but Clara grabbed his hand. âSergio, Iâm your woman. Since weâre already married, why are you afraid to look at inc?
Once a man indulged, it was hard to hold back.
Clara leaned closer, trying to arouse Sergioâs desire. But the next moment, Sergio pushed her away.
Clara stumbled onto the bed, and Sergioâs expression seemed as if he had been repulsed by something vile. âIâve warned you.
Since youâre unwilling to behave, until the baby arrives, starting tomorrow, youâll be moving out of the Brooks Manor.â
âSergio?â
Sergio left the bedroom without even glancing back once, leaving Clara there with a look of disbelief.
The next day, Maeve received some inside information. She felt surprised. âClara moved out of Brooks Manor?
âyes, early this morning, someone saw Clara being escorted out of Brooks Manor.â
âIs Mrs. Brooks Senior letting her go?â
âThis time, Clara has offended the Hackett family. Mrs. Brooks Senior probably wants to show Mr. Hackett some respect.â Zaylaâs explanation sounded plausible..
Maeve thought about it carefully and found it reasonable.
Clara had moved into Brooks Manor, which was Maeve and Sergioâs marital home.
Having a mistress who was involved in an extramarital affair move into her and Sergioâs marital home was truly outrageous.
If the media caught wind of it, it would likely stir up another wave of controversy.
âThereâs one more thing.â Zayla said.
âWhat is it?â
âMr. Spencer and Mr. Foster have something to attend to, so...â
âSo, theyâre gone again, right? Maeve had grown accustomed to Zionâs disappearing acts.
She wondered what Zion was up to this time.
But it didnât matter. With the merger of Group and Mirage Group, everything was on track now.
Maeve handed the partnership documents to Zayla and said, âThe Hackett family will be signing the contract with us soon. Get everything ready.â
âGot it!
As Zayla finished speaking, a commotion erupted outside the office.
âOfficers, is there some misunderstanding? Officers!â
Two policemen pushed open the office door and asked, âWho is Maeve Scott?â
âThatâs me.â
The two policemen exchanged glances, and one of them immediately stepped forward to handcuff Maeve âYouâve been reported for bribery and embezzlement. Weâre taking you in for questioning.â he said.
Zayla was taken aback. âBribery and embezzlement? Officers, there must be some mistake. I request to have a lawyer present for her defense!â
âYou can get a lawyer for her defense, but she needs to come with us to the police station now,â the policeman replied. Then, they led Maeve Maeve frowned With so many people in the company and so many pairs of eyes, everyoneâs p gaze was now focused on her alone.
Marveâs paze swept over everyone around her.
Who could have reported her?
She had always managed the companyâs finances meticulously and made sure that there werenât any loopholes. This report had been fabricated out of thin air.
