Chapter 372 The Ramez family used to be one of the prominent families in Lentimas City before they moved to Seathburn City. They always kept a low profile, but they had businesses in the banking industry. So, they were wealthy too.
The Jefferson familyâs influence in Lentimas City was like Sergioâs. Their businesses had expanded to a wide range of fields.
The Jefferson family was on good terms with the Ramoz family. Back then, Bemice had given birth to a girl, Nathalie Ramoz.
However, her husband, Henry Ramor, had cheated on her. Hence, she had left with their daughter.
Henry had been trying to look for his own daughter. The Jefferson familyâs son had also engaged with the Ramoz familyâs daughter.
However, their wedding had been put on hold because of this.
Ever since Conner had taken over the Jefferson family, he had used all means to look for Nathalie. He was determined to find his fiancée.
When Lyra saw the news, she couldnât help lamenting that there was such a faithful man from a wealthy family.
Then, Lyra looked up in confusion before looking at Marve. âMaeve, how did you know Conner did it for the Ramoz family?â
Marve held her tongue. She couldnât tell Lyra that in her past life, something major had happened after Connerâs fiancée passed away.
She could only make up a lie. âI just happened to see the news last time, and I had thought that he was such a faithful man.â
âHow could there be so many faithful men? In families like ours, thereâs no true love. Everything evolves around interests.â
Lyra added, âConner and Nathalie havenât met before. I donât think Conner will be this aggressive because of a woman he has never met. Both families were just trying to gain the public attention with all this.â
Maeve fell silent.
Now, she was no longer the girl who followed Sergio around like how she had been in her past life.
The two familiesâ relationship was built based on interests. It was obvious that Conner had been defending Clara for the sake of the Ramoz family.
âBy the way, donât tell Charlie about the injury on my face.â
âIlmow. I didnât tell him, but... I donât think we can keep this from him for too long.â
Maeveâs face was injured. And now, Zion had returned to Seathbum City. Considering how much he cared about her, it was impossible for him not to meet her for a werk.
Moreover, Maeve still had to go to work at Mirage Group.
It was just a matter of time before Zion found out about it âIâll get you some water. Stay here, and Iâll send you back in a while.â
Maeve nodded.
The sound of footsteps came from outside of the ward after Lyra left for a while.
Halley brought the Brooks familyâs bodyguards along.
âMaeve Scott, youâre here!â
It had only been a few days, but Hailey looked much older now. She walked up to Maeve and held her arm as she questioned furiously, âWhere did you take my great -grandchild to? Did you get rid of my greatâgrandchild? Youâre such a vicious woman!
How could you do this?â
Maeve had just injured her ears, and they were still ringing. Haileyâs voice was sharp, making Maeveâs ears extremely uncomfortable.
Maeve frowned and looked dazed. The nurse outside saw and dashed into the ward. âMadam, what are you doing? The patient needs to rest. Please leave!â
Before the nurse could approach, Haileyâs men stopped her.
The nurseâs face darkened. Hailey was being unreasonable as she exclaimed, âGuys, look! This woman abducted my granddaughterâinâlaw whoâs pregnant! I donât know what sheâs done to my greatâgrandchild!â
